Id like to see 6-5 for Nashville with Bo, Baer, Jake,Hutton, Granlund and Mcann getting multiple points each.  

This captures the challenge Canuck fans face. We want individual players to do well (especially the young guys) but we want the team a whole to lose to get a good draft pick. My personal reading of the draft rankings is that it would be very good to be in the top 5 (Matthews, Finns, Tkachuk, Chychrun) and, failing that, in the top 9.

 

Fortunately Miller should play. With Marky playing a win is just too likely. I hope Marky plays against Winnipeg and Edmonton, though, as the Canucks would probably beat them anyway. Winnipeg and Edmonton are just too good at losing in the clutch.

#Canucks Virtanen on what Desjardins told him: "Don't get in the cycle with them, because you're just going to screw it up."

#Canucks Virtanen says coach Willie Desjardins told him that night to not overthink playing with the twins.

Not surprised Gaunce is out, has been quite lackluster.

He is on emergency recall and needs to be returned to Utica now that the Canucks have 12 healthy forwards.  

 

It's unlikely that they convert his emergency recall into a regular call-up because they only have 4 after the TDL.  

They still want to give a look to Pedan, Zalewski and Grenier.  Benning was also suggesting that Tryamkin might agree to spend some time in Utica if he struggles to adjust so they would also need one to call him back up (papering is only for the playoffs).

"I'm really looking forward to it. For me it's going to be important to keep things simple." - Virtanen on playing with the Sedins

 

Allways best advice in hockey. Kiss, keep it simple, stupid.

First quote is interesting. When Virtanen asked the Sedins what they wanted him to do in the offensive zone with them they supposedly told him to get in on the action. Willie wants him to stay out of their way.

11 skaters and 2 goalies for #Canucks optional. Group includes Tanev and Tryamkin, but neither likely to play. #TSN1040

 

Tryamkin at optional skate today, He is a big one!

Markstrom looks tiny compared to him, and Markstrom is huge.
