You are pretty darn close

 

One of Goldobin and Brock has to start in Utica for asset management reasons and will be first call-up (if not JV)

GMJB will be forced to trade one of the others if they are outplayed by even a JV

But the only player I see them waiving of the above 14 is RODIN if he is outplayed (the others will be traded after the season starts)

 

BOUCHER is the only other wild card and I think the CHAPUTS and MEGNAS of this team are either in the "A" or claimed off waiver (however on a one way contract I doubt they get claimed and was the reason they were given one ways to start with)

 

The rest of the prospects are waiver exempt so will start in the "A" for sure

 

 

 

 

 

I put Gags with the twins because of his creativity and Marcus in the middle for his playmaking skills Sutter is the hardest to place along with Goldy 1 needs a playmaker the other needs players that play the same game.

He was one of the best in camp and pre-season last year.  I would expect as much, or more this year.

I'm honestly praying for it. Been waiting patiently for so damn long lol

He did and Labate is looking to steal his job! Just like Virtanen after Dorsett's. 

Not a fan of the Dorset contract.  2 more yrs at 2. 6 per year is pretty brutal for a guy that sticks up for his teamates by getting beat up pretty much every time he drops the gloves....

 

the guy has 43 NHL playoff games played and 0 goals  kinds of sums it up.

I like how you balanced the lines. I too think Sedins should start as a 2b line (3rd) with offensive zone starts. I hope Jake Virtanen plays with them. He could give them the same as Hansen did: speed, good release on a RH shot, puck retrieval and grit (a la Burrows). Not saying they should rush him (too late maybe, I know), but the Nuck's line up looks soft, in a very tough Western Conference.

 

I think Gagne should start on Sutter's LW, as a right hand shot from a right hand centre, especially if they are a 4th line. Maybe if Dorsett was ready to go too on the 4th line I think they could do some damage against other 4th lines.

 

If Juolevi is ready I think you're right to pair him with Tanev.

 

I'm not a hockey player so I don't understand your PP and PK formations but I like the mix of players.

 

Maybe the Nucks should hire you as an advisor!

Agreed... Dorsett's contract is a little rich in today's NHL given what he's capable of.... but he is truly a contributor on our 4th line, not a liability. But Green should assess whether the team is better with Virtanen or Dorsett. I really like Dorsett but won't mind seeing him waived.

Does anyone know ??

 

With Dorsett having had the major neck surgery (his type of play can warrant extra time)

Would he be able to start the season on IR so that will give us an extra F spot for say 20 games then do a conditioning stint in the "A" 

 

That way he would get the extra time to get to 100% and still be around the team

As well as have a couple weeks to get into game shape once he is truly ready to go

 

This would allow an extra youngster to start the season "GOLDY" and if the young guys are ready after 20 games 

Then GMJB would be able to do AM and trade rather than waive

 

I just don't get the IR and LTIR rules and regs

 

 

Sven Baertschi - Bo Horvat - Brock Boeser

Daniel Sedin - Henrik Sedin - GOLDY

Marcus Grandlund - Brandon Sutter - Loui Eriksson 

Sam Gagner - Alexander Burmstrov - Anton Rodin

Brandon Gaunce 

 

 

IR

Derek Dorsett

I like how you balanced the lines. I too think Sedins should start as a 2b line (3rd) with offensive zone starts. I hope Jake Virtanen plays with them. He could give them the same as Hansen did: speed, good release on a RH shot, puck retrieval and grit (a la Burrows). Not saying they should rush him (too late maybe, I know), but the Nuck's line up looks soft, in a very tough Western Conference.

 

I think Gagne should start on Sutter's LW, as a right hand shot from a right hand centre, especially if they are a 4th line. Maybe if Dorsett was ready to go too on the 4th line I think they could do some damage against other 4th lines.

 

If Juolevi is ready I think you're right to pair him with Tanev.

 

I'm not a hockey player so I don't understand your PP and PK formations but I like the mix of players.

 

Maybe the Nucks should hire you as an advisor!

Virtanen played with the twins last year..all of one shift and looked horrible. He is not the right fit for the Sedins leave Granlund with them. Granlund can somewhat cycle and knows where the twins want him around the net for the passes and give and go game.

Zero percent chance of the Canucks making playoffs this year.

Zero percent chance Dorset plays more than 40 games this year. 

 

If zero percent chance, the reciprocal is essentially infinite so I'll take those odds.   Let's make it easy on you and instead of infinity (hard to count that high), let's say a billion for rounding sake.   I put up a dollar and you put up a billion.   We can find a bank to hold our promissory notes.

 

I'm in.   You?
