AlwaysACanuckFan Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Tryamkin should be a lock to grab a spot on the roster, with Larsen maybe grabbing the 7th spot. I also think each of the other defensemen mentioned in this poll plays at least one game this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyHarry Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I picked Tryamkin....but that's an obvious choice. Larsen will make the team too....but I'm really looking forward too Larsen playing. he'll be on the third pairing which is awesome so he'll play against the bottom foreward lines, so I hope he'll attack and join the rush creating Offence with the big Russia holding the fort as the stay home guy....just hope coaching staff gives the green light to Larsen. i think we'll use alot of D this year up coming season but hopefully not as many as last season. Subban will get a small 1 or 2 game NHL stint which really will be for other teams to look at him for a trade....like Subban but I don't see him as a future Canuck. Stecher I don't know enough about....but I don't see him called up this year unless he's Hutton. Sbisa will be in a rotation....with Tryamkin and Larson.......the Russian needs rest. I love him but I don't see him playing every game as I really don't think he has a 80+ NHL game straight cardio.....so they'll rest him a lot. Pedan will be a call up as well as Biega......when Edler has his annual injury. wheres the new uniform, new logo and line nickname forum threads.....I predict at lest 3 threads will be started for each of those before season starts. i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Deal off Sbisa for some GM's belly button lint. That 3.6 could come in handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckylager Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Barring any Hutton-esque performances from Stecher, I'd put money on Tram and Larsen mirroring how McCann and Virt were used last season. Big team - Tree Fast and skilled team - Larsen Thought we got Pedan for a 3rd, not a 2nd? Not like it matters though, 25% chance on a 2nd rounder after all.

Hard to see us taking a chance on that happening Based on what I saw last year in 13 games played, this will not be an issue. He will make the team. They should give this guy playing time to develop at the NHL level imo. Some players, they're just going to have to pass through waivers, there is no choice. They'll carry 8 D and the rest will go down to Utica (hopefully) Edler Tanev Hutton Gudbranson Tryamkin Larsen Sbisa Biega Pedan Stecher.......that's the 9 who were talked about by Benning I think Stecher will probably be in Utica because he needs playing time and is waiver exempt (?) That leaves them choosing between Biega and Pedan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostsof1915 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Tryamkin and Larsen start. Juolevi and Stetcher could be wild cards. Pedan only if there's injuries. Larsen will either sink or swim. I'd like to see Juolevi be so good we have to trade Edler or Sbisa. Only because Edler should still be able to get a solid return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blömqvist Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Barring any trades, I think all of Tryamkin, Larsen, and Pedan will make the roster, with Biega, Subban, and Stecher in Utica. Tryamkin and Larsen will likely swap in and out with each other (I'm assuming their conditioning won't be at the NHL level considering the KHL plays much fewer games), and Pedan may dress a couple of games as a forward. When injuries occur, then both Tryamkin and Larsen will play full-time, while Biega or Subban will get the injury call-up. This leaves us with 9 defensemen with NHL experience, plus Subban and Stecher. EDIT: Considering waiver eligibility and to not risk losing a player, I think Juolevi will play parts of the pre-season but not make the team. Unless he surprises and severely outplays someone.

Zoolander Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Voted Tryamkin because I think he's a lock. I swear everyone is sleeping on my boi Sautner tho. I think he's gonna be a very steady NHL'er soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCNeil Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 The poll is worded kind of funny. Tryamkin will probably be in the starting 6 group to start the season. But over a full year with injuries.....Biega, Pedan, Larsen could all play anywhere from 10-40 games. Subban and Stretcher.....probably just preseason.

That leaves them choosing between Biega and Pedan I agree, Tree will make the team, they're not going to lose him back to Russia...so our top 5, barring any trades, is a lock I believe, it'll be a fight for the last couple spots, which I'm assuming will go to Pedan and Larsson for spots 6/7..

Larsen is going to be the Canucks #3RD and on the PP. Sbisa is the odd man out. I'm guessing he'll be traded in the near future. I hope so !

Subban should challenge for the spot for a while, Biega is a good safety net to have there but it'll be Larsen's spot to lose. Edler - Tanev Hutton - Gudbranson Sbisa - Larsen I think depending on who gets injured when, we'll see call ups. If a right handed puck mover gets injured (eg. Larsen), Subban should get the call. If it's a right handed shutdown defenceman, Biega should be called up. If it's a left handed puck mover (Hutton), we should bring up Stetcher. If it's a left handed shutdown guy (Edler or Sbisa), we should call up Tryamkin. Tryamkin won't go to the AHL so he is not a call up option plus his use of his reach and size puts him above Sbisa on the depth chart. IMO there is no way he isn't in our line up.

Dragonass Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 JB could surprise us and ship out Edler for that other top 6 winger he is shopping for , well and a second. This would help the log jam and could get us a legit second line winger. If no D are traded we will lose one on wavers . After development camp Linden point blank said Juolevi needs to be in junior on a good team with a key roll and said he was most surprised by Stretcher . Their eye on development and evaluation might make for surprising lineups. I think Pedan will some how be on our team to translate for Big T and or to test/shop him.

Yes, because teams will line up to pick up and over paid, under performing defenceman. There is this notion that keeps coming back that if a player proves not good enough let's just trade him (like Higgins last year). But realy, if a player is not good enough for the Canucks, one of the worse teams in the league right now, who will he be able to help?? Edmonton? (Kassian!) Any where else??
