yes we do but again trades like that happen as GM's want someone and will over pay,we will see another sooner then later!

Olli will shine sooner then later!!!I just right now do not see him making the team,but if he does a big name will be gone from our D group!

I think Boeser will come into camp and show he can play with anyone sorta like Horvat.only difference is Boeser will get most points and should be in the top or win rookie of the year from what I have seen from him!!

such a bad rep this game has got all over the news,but players love it!!!!!!

If and only if he makes the team we would get rid of two of three to make room Edler,Tanev and Sbisa as Trymakin can play both sides well!!! we have to get rid of one already which I see a move to get a big scoring winger.So if Olli makes the team and right now I do not see why not,then a big trade would make us better will happen!!!

I think Sutter is a better center then Bonino and we will all see that again!!

I would say we are finally deep at our depth,more so then anytime in the 2000's!!

would love to see him on the second with Sutter or third with horvat and baer

I hope someone posts highlights would love to see them.Seems Brock is showing he can play well against NHLers which means when he comes here he may out play many of the OIL which would be good to see!!

Jake is still young and that means he wants to play harder for his home town team.Yes he needs a bit more coaching and to just play his game and once he does that he will be more effective!

depends on how well he does as D is tricky to play more so then forwards,but if he is ready i would give him least 9 games and if by then he shows his stuff and he can play hard minutes then he stays as JB has said he would make room!!

we have had some awesome D men and a couple close to it,but we have not had that franchise D and Olli should be the one for us!!

I sure hope he gets his 9 games in as he was the best pick we could get at 5 and it was a sexy pick!!!!

we will agree to not agree then,lol I just know people I talk to about the way the team is going and what we have most who have been canucks fans for 40 plus years and some younger people who have played and so on, agree fully with me and for that I am happy.not everyone will always agree but atleast we both have ideas of making the team better and for that i am more happy cause we both agree on one thing, something has to happen!!!!

way I see it is this,if Tanev and Edler were 1 and 2 top pairing D men then we will still be in BIG trouble if we keep them both and since Edler will be protected unless traded then Tanev the only other guy that could get us a good return then you must not if but MUST trade him.Gudbrason and Tramkin will be better shut down guys as Trymakin showed last year he has the skills,Grudbrason will be in the top pairing!I don't know how long you have watched hockey but I can say you ar right about our D sucking but this is a new year and we got pieces that will be better but we still have two to many D and one a big one should be traded to get what we need!

so true and facts are he could make it but did not want to play for a bad team.I would rather trade a Tanev then lose him in the expansion draft!Edler well that spot would go to another player we want to keep,so think ahead instead of saying players can't play and you do not think they should when Benning is good at looking at skill and knows larsen has it! and that is not at you thejazz97 but at drummerboy

Nope because he should be our PP quarterback which we havn't really had since we traded garrison so to me he is in and one is out!!!If you think different then we will not come close to making the playoffs without a PP guy,if he struggles then I see a trade or something but we need help on the PP to be competitive which we all want so does Benning and Linden who are high on him running the PP!!!

well now he knows and it is up to him to prove he should stay meaning maybe a trade or two.I would send him down to get the extra playing time,but still like him and want him in the big club just think he is better off in the minors for now

I disagree at the start of the year was more bad luck then him not being consistent!far as streaky the canucks have had players in the past that were just that.Bo plays the same way ever game you just notice more when he puts up points!

heard he is training super hard to be ready for the opening game!

this us why we need to trade either Edler,Tanev or Sbisa so larsen has room on the team!! This is what I have said before the draft ,to get a winner you need goaltending,D then forwards and so far we have two of three!!

I'd love to see him play well enough to make the team as then we could trade Tanev and Sbisa and a couple forwards and get maybe another decent 25 goal scorer or something like that to help us become a playoff team!!! plus he will be protected this off season and vegas can not have him!!

I like him and I like Virtanen but if both get sent down and are on the top line and injury they might stay up,I just wish both could play a solid season and stay in the NHL!
