Darnell Nurse (Oilers) is tied for 29th in NHL scoring with 16 points and he's +13 on the year....WTF

Tyson Barrie also has 16 points but half of those have been on special teams, only 4 of Nurse's points have come on the PP, which means he's been great at even strength. Didn't realize how good he's been this year.

Edler used to be that guy for the Canucks, he played well last night, finishes most nights second on the team in total ice-time behind Hughes. They've gotta find a dman that can replace him because he's 34 years old now.

SEVEN YEARS and still no workhorse defencemen from the draft, we got our skilled guy, but desperate for a young Edler clone

There's 6 Defensemen ranked in the top 10 of this years draft, just saying.

Big part of the problem, Hughes playing way more than he should be. The kid is an absolute disaster, when it comes to defending.

Juolevi is looking like he can be this. Is quietly good and I feel the offense will slowly come along for him.

I see that, some good prospects in that top 12 range for dmen.

They're so desperate for offence, Green, they overplay him to the point of exhaustion. Same thing they used to do with Edler, he used to play 25 minutes a night and he'd start to make mistakes because when you're body is exhausted you just can't get to where you want to. That and he's a bit of a meathead

I don't see that in him but he's quietly been playing well with limited minutes. Let's just hope he can pan-out as a second pairing guy, which is still up in the air.

They finally took him off of duties when Miller's line is on the ice, which is a good thing, but, Edler and Schmidt played on Miller's line line and didn't do so well either...hmm

Edler and Myers played almost 4 minutes and 3.5 minutes short handed last night, Schmidt and Benn a minute each and Hughes and Juolevi ZERO minutes. It's a bit of a messy dynamic back there right now for sure.

Hopefully we pick in that range. If JB keeps the pick.

It is a messy situation on defense and with the top offensive line, something just isn't right with those guys.

It's pretty bad when Keith Ballard is half the highlights
