hatedkid666 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Hopefully Hutton, and probably too. Unless Edler goes back a few years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I voted Hutton too by the way. It's all good dude, I was a little tipsy and gettin' cheeky. I got where you were coming from. 7 hours ago, Stamkos said: I don't think that Hutton will score the goals. He will get a few assists but won't score. Gudbranson can shoot can't he? Hutton will score the goals. Gud's not much of an OD, he'll probably get the most hits though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Tanev is our best shutdown defender and he enjoys that role. I don't expect him to try and generate offense. 19 hours ago, luckylager said: Early on it's looking like a Hutton landslide.. except for the oddball who picked Gud, to spite me. I wasn't even going to add him or Tree, just like I didn't add Tanev. He'd win by a mile because of CDC's sense of humour when it comes to polls. Edler may rediscover some level of awesomeness, even consistency would be good. Maybe he'll see this poll and be so pissed that we've all lost faith in him that he starts trying again...

Watched the Canucks TV bit on him at home, firing shots, putting on muscle, I think the kid's gonna shine next year and being paired with Gud will allow him to play up the ice a bit more. He's got slick hands and sees the ice well. I'm almost certain Edler's spending a good chunk of the year on the IR, so... Anyways, just vote. I voted for Ent. What is Ent? Is that Subban?

Phat Fingers Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Our Bobby Orr is going back to Jr. There needs to be a 'none of the above option'. If not everyone will pick Sbisa for a laugh. I really like our defence this year, in relation to last year. But no Orr guy for us. We may be tougher and hopefully better at defending, but our defence is not going to generate much offence.

Junkyard Dog Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Hutton or Edler. Probably Edler since he will be on the reformed #1 PP, that hopefully will score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't include Tanev because I figured he was the sure fire "for a laugh" vote. Spisa actually does have an offensive upside, I haven't seen that in Gud's highlights, but admittedly I dont follow the panthers so I'm not 100% on what we're getting with him. Tree, from what we saw last year, can sure hammer the puck but seems to prefer the role of creaseman, so I included him and Gud to fill space. I think a few of you are taking "Orr" a bit too seriously. He's being used as a light-hearted anology for our most offensively productive Dman. He is the epitome of offensive D. In retrospect, maybe I should have had an "other" option, but I didn't, so I guess I'll have to live the rest of my CDC life in shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuck-lifer Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 The closest in our current roster and prospects would be Juolevi imo, considering where he is at right now. PLUS he is already wearing #4 so it's a slam dunk! Orr was not only an incredibly mobile, defenseman with a great shot, and play-making skills he was also Boston's #1 defensive player with the best +/- so if Juolevi can do 1/2 for the Canucks that Orr did for Boston, Canuck-land would be very happy indeed!
