Edler is a very good defenseman. But only if Green can force himself to ration his ice time more. He's great fresh, starting the season, or coming back off of injury, etc. Just can't overplay him. Hopefully with the new D help, he can pace himself so he's playing well throughout the season......and playoffs -

(Newer than the newest) 2019-2020 Time Capsule Prediction Thread
kilgore replied to Canorth's topic in Canucks Talk
Hughes takes half the season to adjust playing against large professional NHL players, but finds his game and has an increasingly productive second half Pettersson does not disappoint, no sophomore slump. Gets 90 points and wins the Hart Boeser pots 40 goals. Tanev misses less than 10 days to injury! Markstrom continues where he left off at the end of last year with stellar play After yet more rope is portioned out to LE, he is finally sent down to Utica after 2 months. He again rails about Green in a Swedish paper and the fallout is that he resigns, and gets a spot on a Swedish team. We get his cap hit back! Bo steps into his new role as Captain, and has a fight…standing up for a team mate! Despite Bettman and the head of officiating, Stephen Walkom, best efforts, we survive all the “management” calls and non calls meant to keep us out of the playoffs. We make the playoffs. Tryamkin returns just before, giving us a twin towers on defence. We sweep Calgary in the first round Beat St. Louis in the second And San Jose in the third And play Boston in a hard fought 7 SCF game series. Marchand has his face re-arranged by Ferland. He retaliates with a dangerous hit in the second game and is suspended for the rest of the series. We win the Stanley Cup in our 50th year! And a riot free celebration! Oh, and 3 posters have a prediction of “reserved”. One with “Demure”, and a good chance one with -
Canucks to announce captain at home opener (Oct.9,2019)
kilgore replied to cuporbust's topic in Canucks Talk
I can't get over how smart this looks! And I'm not even a big fan of the flying skate. Maybe its because the skate is more horizontal on here rather than downwards. Maybe its Bo's nonchalant expression of "I got this". -
Canucks to announce captain at home opener (Oct.9,2019)
kilgore replied to cuporbust's topic in Canucks Talk
Edler? No. He has never even shown he wants to be. It would be a shocker, which would probably derail the team's start with all the controversy, if anyone but Bo was named C. Can u imagine this incestuous sports media in this town hounding Bo and an Green and whomever is unlucky enough to had been named C with asinine questions about "how do you feel about someone else being named C" Do you think you deserve the C?" No, Bo has already been christened, by the fans, the media, and finally, even if reluctantly, the Canucks organization. Even if Petey, or someone else, Miller, Myers, etc grows into a candidate in a couple of years. Even if it could be argued that Bo doesn't tick every box. Its too late. There'd be another Robson street riot if Bo wasn't handed the C. -

Which F or D pairing will have the most impact this year?
kilgore replied to JM_'s topic in Canucks Talk
yup. At least this is the pairing that BETTER have the most impact. If they don't, whether its through injury (knock on wood) or some kind of catastrophic sophomore slump, we are kind of screwed, no matter how well other lines do. -
Sutter on the wing. I don't know why this is even a question. Sutter's game, what it is, is not going to get much worse or better changing positions. Use him to take face-offs for a majority of times if you like and then switch. Sutter's ceiling as a center is done. He's consistent, which is great, but he's a mediocre player, a support player. Gaudette is just starting to emerge, his ceiling has yet to be determined. He should be given all the opportunity to succeed at center position.....starting now. As a support player, Sutter's job should be just than, to support Gaudette's transition to an NHL calibre center ice man.

Boeser & Fantenberg are both in concussion protocol,
kilgore replied to kilgore's topic in Canucks Talk
Poor Fantenberg. He gets lost in the story where everyone is focused on Brock. It looked like his hit was much more serious. I hope not. Might have been his last shot to get one more contract either from Canucks or someone else. He was looking good so far , before the hit, I thought. -
So Arizona is going to ice eight more skaters and three goalies? I guess there's no restriction on roster numbers in pre-season. They won't all fit on the bench at once.

They say a defenseman's game matures later than other positions
