Weircoch sucks. I'd put money on Holm or Pedan(if they want a tough guy)
- Nucker101

well they all kinda suck...that's why they can't break into the Canucks top 6.
OJ being the exception as a youngin.

edit: Is Holm known as a tough guy?

Kind of a kick in the pants to Troy Stecher during the interview. One need for JB right now, a right shot PP QB.

Need a boomer on the point & nothing against Stecher.
Top 2 D I think is what he wants.

Weircoch has been the weak link on teams just as bad as the Canucks, I'd be surprised if he makes the team.

I'd take the unknown factor of Holm over him or Pedan over him since i'd rather have the tough guy if im going to have a scrub anyway.

Benning says it's fair to say the #Canucks' Top-6 D going into season will be:

Elder-Tanev
Hutton-Stecher
Del Zotto-Gudbranson
- VANTEL

That second pairing is going to give up some goals. But then so are the other pairings, so I'll allow it.

No more Ruskies.

Weircioch could be in Utica & nobody claims him. Depth only

I like the top 9 but the 4th line needs work

someone on hfboards mentioned that on 1040 they said there was a rumour TG wasnt happy with OJ's attitude at prospects camp

surprised i havent seen anything mentioned here

Ditto. That's as solid a top 9 as we'll get on paper.

Daniel Sedin Henrik Sedin Loui Eriksson
Sven Baertschi Bo Horvat Brock Boeser
Thomas Vanek Brandon Sutter Sam Gagner
Michael Chaput Markus Granlund Reid Boucher

i'd swap Chaput for Dorsett.

me too

we do know JB likes carrying 8 D. It could be OJ / pedan as well my guess is holm would make it based on being a defensive D, for balance reasons

Elder-Gudbranson
Hutton-Tanev
Del Zotto-Stecher

no way boucher and chaput make it over guys like burmistrov, rodin and JV etc.

how about

Elder-Gudbranson
Hutton-Tanev
Del Zotto-Stecher

Canucks like their opposite skill sets. Problem with Van's D. Hutton and Guds cant play together. Edler and Stecher better suited as a 2nd pairing. Leaving Tanev on first pairing with no other guy to play with him. This is why Hutton needs to be traded.

Edler - Tanev
Someone big and defensive - Stecher
MDZ - Guds.

You could go Holm and Stecher 3rd pairing.

Not a chance in hell OJ stays as a 7 or 8 . JB already said no top prospect will stay id they are a spare
