Not my lineup choices, just what I see happening based on observing management and coaching 

 

Sedin/Sedin/Sutter

Baer/Grandlund/Eriksson

Burr/Bo/Etem

Dors/Gaunce/Virt-rodin-Vey?

 

Edler/Tan

Hutt/Gud

Sbisa/Trya

 

Miller Starts

Marks Backup

 

Eriksson will start the year with the Sedins but will drop to line two when management has to learn once again that they need a winger that can play the corners.

Bo should be on line two but I would not be surprised to see willie start the year the way he ended it with his center depth. 

Virt could start in Utica but that's hard to predict and expect Dorsett to move up the lineup in close games

My dream is:

 

Sedin-Sedin-Okposo/Eriksson

Sutter-Stamkos-Hansen

Baertschi-Horvat-Virtanen/Rodin

Gauince-Granlund-Dorsett

 

Edler-Tanev

Hutton-Gudbranson

Hamhuis-Tryamkin

Pedan-Larsen

 

(Pedan covers short term forward spots when there isn't time to call up someone from the farm)

I think there will be more deals this offseason besides some UFA signings

 

Yes, the hardest part of projecting the line-up is, in effect, predicting trades. But, based on the line-up we have and on what Benning has said, this is what I have:

 

Daniel   Henrik   Hansen

Baertschi  Sutter  UFA (Brouwer)

Burrows  Horvat Etem

Dorsett Granlund Virtanen

Rodin

 

Edler Tanev

Hutton Gubranson

Hamhuis Tryamkin

Sbisa Larsen

 

Markstrom

Miller

 

key points:

 

1. The Canucks will go for a top six forward UFA. I am not sure they will be successful as not many potential UFAs will want to go to a team that does not look competitive. However, Brouwer might be willing to return "home". He is not young (30) but Benning might be happy to add him on the basis that he can help the team now then get displaced in the top 6 by Boeser a year or two down the road. 

 

2. I think Burrows will stay, There is not much financial gain this year  in buying him out and it actually makes next year's cap situation (when there will be cap bottleneck) worse. It might be argued that Benning will want to free up his roster spot, but it is not obvious to me that likely replacements are better than Burrows if the team is trying to win now.

 

3. Benning seems committed to giving Etem and Granlund a long look, so I think they start unless something strange happens in camp. And of course Dorsett is in as a 4th line winger.  And I think the Canucks will want to keep Virtanen in the NHL and he is good enough to play 4RW. I think the Canucks will also want to get a good look at Rodin, so I think he makes the team and rotates in, with the other bottom 6 wingers being rested from time to time. (And at any given time someone is almost always injured.)

 

4. I hope Hammer is re-signed. I am not confident of this outcome, but I am putting it in partly because I am hoping for it.

 

Problem: Pedan is not on this roster and he is waiver eligible. Maybe Sbisa gets traded and Pedan is in. Or maybe Pedan gets traded. But I guess it is more likely that Hammer is not re-signed, leaving room for Pedan on the active roster.

 

Of course there will be injuries, and guys like Gaunce and Vey will figure in somewhere, although I think they start the season in Utica.

Boom. Love it.

Okposo over Eriksson any day of the week.

Can you add a little Tyson Barrie in there... maybe swap him to Colorado for Edler and Hansen??? (No Hansen in the lineup) That would make me real pleased.  I'd even be back on the Trader Jim bandwagon. And thats saying something.

Scenario 1. We get Stamkos or Eriksson. We will have enough money to sign Hamhuis.

 

Sedin-Sedin-Stamkos/Eriksson

Baertschi-Horvat-Etem

Gaunce-Sutter-Hansen

Virtanen-Granlund-Rodin

 

Edler-Tanev

Hamhuis-Gudbranson

Hutton-Tryamkin

Sbisa (probably traded if Hamhuis re-signed)

Larsen

 

Scenario 2. We get Eriksson and Ladd. We won't be able to afford Hamhuis.

 

Sedin-Sedin-Eriksson

Ladd-Sutter-Rodin

Baertschi-Horvat-Hansen

Virtanen-Granlund-Etem

Gaunce

 

Edler-Tanev

Hutton-Gudbranson

Tryamkin-Larsen

I don't think Pedan or Gaunce will get through waivers. (Gaunce will make the team)

I expect another trade of a minor nature. It will not surprise me if Burrows is moved or bought out.(Higgins is gone also)

8 D and 13F

Training camp and pree season will be very interesting. I will stick my neck out and say they will sign Lucic and Eriksson .

Not sure about Hammer, I have mixed feelings. 

 

I think this a year that they intend on going all in on.

Unfortunately, we are still carrying Burr and Higgins for 7 mill. Thanks MG

 

Unfortunately our super stars make 7 mill AAV and others are making north of 10. Thank Gillis for that too. He handed some good contracts and some bad. Much much better at signings than JB and TL

Y is everyone so high on Eriksson... because he's sweedish? He's gunna want a long term deal and he's not exactly a young man. He's another 2-way player.

He will be an older vet by the time this team is ready.

Okposo for prez !!

How about Edler + Hansen + Subban + 2nd 2017 (or something along those lines) for Edmontons 4th overall ... Draft PLD 4th and CHYCHRUN 5th
