That was a pitiful roster to ice.
There has to be a reason for it.
As mentioned earlier vets to practice longer together &/or just a 1 game off to give prospects an eye opener &/or it’s against the Flames & not wanting to show their hand. Idk

There is also the possibility we have another idiot coach behind the bench. We'll see in the upcoming games.

Tocchet has talked about creating "pairs" for lines... so think Miller and Boes are the pair plus whoever clicks well on their line. Wait and see how Di Giuseppe plays, maybe he'll be a Burrows in the making

We did see him play top six last year and not once was I reminded of Burrows




It is still wait and see. Only preseason.

Yeah pretty short sighted still in my opinion. I know I'm earmarked as a negative person on here as I don't have very high hopes this year will be much different from the last two, but there are other reasons I found it disappointing.

It's well known the canucks have a decent fan base in Alberta. Kind of an eff you brand wise to send such a scrub roster every time. Some families can only afford pre-season tix. Last year I saw a great number of kids in little canuck jerseys for this same pre-season game at the saddledome. Results on the scoreboard weren't as bad last year, but the play was completely dominated.

That's because your hate for the Sedins blinded you to a lot

Nah I just mean a "top 6 player" that isn't a "top 6 player"... maybe he's good at getting pucks out and covering defensively for those two to make the line work. We'll see shortly how it shakes out

Yeah just wait until games count. No use getting upset until a final product is on the ice.

Also Burrows is my all time favorite Canuck. Crazy I know.

From the limited viewings I have of this kid, he appears to be a decent defenseman.

Interesting to me that Hogs is getting another look here, as none of the other bubble players that 'played' in Calgary appear here.
Seems like they're giving him a good look this year.
Feels like Pods is Abby bound, along with Ratu and all the rest.

My guess for opening night:

Mikheyev-Ep40-Kuzmenko
Beauvillier-JTM-Boeser
DiG-Suter-Garland
Hoglander-Blueger-Studnicka
Joshua

Hughes-Cole
Soucy-Hronek
Irwin-Myers

Anyone remember the good old days when the Canucks sent the great Frankie Corrado to the minor and he wasn't waiver exempt, then got claimed?

I swear that move set the organization back at least a decade.

I was a Habs fan until expansion then I liked the Flyers from 1967 (12 years old). Then in the 80s an Oiler fan. I have seen a lot of cups except with these bunch of cup cakes.


Always liked big physical hockey never the Sedin style. Christ why the hell am I a Canuck fan?

I can still hear my Toronto friends mocking me because we gave away a top 4 Dman.

Tocchet on Joshua: He’s gotta pick it up. I’m not going to get into some of the other factors, but he’s gotta try to win a job. The job’s not there. There’s other guys breathing down that want jobs.
