I am calling it in the first month of the NHL

Montreal Canadiens will represent the East in the SCF

Split them up

Burrows, Hank, Vrbata
Danny, Bonito, Kassian
- A_SteamingLombardi

Daniel Sedin is currently tied for 6th in league scoring with 1 goal and 7 assists, in fewer games than many of the players caught up in that tie. I'm not suggesting that he will necessarily keep up a 1.6 ppg pace, but contrary to what VTell is saying, the Canucks first line is still very dangerous, even compared to other team's top line.

I think that just lowers both lines though.

Meh, Edmonton just bean Stamkos and the Lightning. He had a point against Dallas last night, he will likely get a point against St. Louis, Colorado etc etc.

no lets go with his argument. Because based on points that will mean CGY is a playoff contender and can shut down stamkos and compete against CHI

Any team can beat any other team throughout the season. Playoff rounds are another matter.

Do I think the Canucks will make the playoffs? No, but not because of the Sedin's production (or lack there of).

This team is lacking 3 top six forwards BOTTOM LINE Bonino is serviceable on the 2nd line but ideally on a playoff contender he'd play 3rd line

HIGGINS & BURROWS ARE 3RD LINERS AND PLAYING THEM ON THE SECOND LINE IS ONLY GOING TO HURT OUR CHANCES

How does it hurt our chances when you just said we don't have any other top 6 forwards? 3rd liners are better than no liners yes?

Yes but why not give Kassian a chance or even Vey

I agree, I would prefer that Although Vey has had his fair share of chances IMO (compared to Kassian at least)
