  1. i think JB is headed in the right direction with the canucks. hopefully we end up  with 3 balanced scoring lines, and a better defense.

      Should Miller play centre to help with that balance?

       

      Pods, Petey, Bess

      Hogs, Bo, Garland

      Pearson, Miller, Lockwood 

      Dickinson, Sutter, Motte

       

      What do you think @smithers joe?  Three balanced lines and a solid checking unit?

      @Alflives-I've been also banging the Miller for center drum, but the more I have thought about it, I think he's better suited as a power winger. Miller playing along the boards in the neutral zone minimizes potential risks from turnovers that he will inevitably commit.

       

      Miller (LW) -- Pettersson (C) -- Garland (RW)

      Hoglander (LW) -- Horvat (C) -- Boeser (RW)

      Pearson (LW) -- Dickinson (C) -- Podkolzin (RW)

      Motte (LW) -- Sutter (C) -- Highmore/Lockwood/MacEwan/Bailey (RW)

       

      Ekman-Larsson (LD) -- Myers (RD)

      Hughes (LD) -- Hamonic (RD)

      Juolevi (LD) -- Poolman (RD)

      Rathbone (LD-minors, only because his waiver exempt) -- Schenn (RD-no. 7)

       

      Demko/Halak (G)

       

      I'd be comfortable with this as the opening day roster.

      I don’t know why everyone thinks that is a weak defensive corps I think it looks good-very good and if Demko plays like he did last season this team is gonna surprise a lot of critics.
