Ian Esplen: My Opening Night Team
My Opening Night Team - IanEsplen
Whatever happened to the great D. Joslin? Do you really think Ballard will get a fair shake from AV?

Lugo should definitely play left wing. - jak521
If there is no rule against playing two goalies then put them both in the net at the same time . |

I generally agree with your lineup opening day. I'm hoping that Raymond-Schroeder-Kassian will develop some nice chemistry over the first few weeks. Then, when Kes and Booth come back, we'll look something like:
Sedin-Sedin-Burrows
Booth-Kesler-Higgins
Raymond-Schroeder-Kassian
Hansen-Lapierre-Manny/Volp/Archibald/Jesus
Four lines that can hopefully contribute so AV can roll them and avoid fatigue |

I see the nucks signing Gomez to league min on a 1 yr deal. If anything, just to try and shore up the middle with Kessler out. Low risk/potential high reward |

Before everyone falls in love with Raymond again ,be cautious. I hope he does have a breakout season because he is cap friendly and a good guy. Remember when he came back last year he impressed for about 10 games. Let's see how he is doing after 20 games. I hope he lights it up so he has trade value. He is not a top 6 player and when Booth and Kesler come back where does he fit in? If all of a sudden he turns into Stamkos then hallalueya , but his history is he is a perimeter player. |

He is and always will be a practise player, an outside perimeter player, that's his game. Just watch and see, I hope I'm wrong, but I'd bet a lot of money that I'm right. |

Kassian second line? Seems a bit lofty at this stage of his game. |

I'm really hoping Schroeder gets a legitimate chance to do something this year. Not too many people are giving him a chance because of his size, but I think his speed could make up for that. Seems like he has good vision and could be a legitimate playmaker with some goals here and there. It would be nice if one of these 1st round prospects would f'n work out a little more often.
I'm looking forward to see what Garrison will do with the Canucks. |

Why's that? He's an offensively talented player, struggles with consistency but he's earned it IMO. |

He could be a top 6 player on a team like NYI . Reunite him and Grabner. He will never be a top 6 on a cup winner and he is not physical enough to be a third liner.
Hell of a nice guy,and I hope he does really well to increase his trade value. Higgens and Hansen are better third liners. |

Yeah but here he has a real defensive partner unlike Edmonton and Minny. We will get to see more of the real Barker. |

Hodgson on the first line? Seems a bit lofty doesn't it? He'd be a third center on most teams |
