Let's all hope there are a few sober, moderate examples, in between these raging and/or passionate, extreme sides of the fan-spectrum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm old, but if my memory is correct, Garland played quite a few games as a LW with both the Coyotes and in the Q. So, since Green doesn't know how to use his players effectively, let me take a shot ... Garland Pettersson Boeser Pearson Horvat Hoglander Miller Dickinson Podkolzin Highmore Lammikko Chiasson Give Podz a good player on his line like Miller, and see what the kid can do, and The Hog deserves to be on the 2nd line. Wait, Brock is injured long term ... okay then ... Garland Pettersson Podzkolzin Miller Horvat Hoglander Pearson Dickinson Chiasson Highmore Lammikko Bailey Bailey already cleared waivers and has reported to the Abbotsford Canucks. So your 4th line RW option with the 2nd scenario (Boeser on IR) needs to be fixed. With Petan, Dowling, and MacEwen still on the roster, my bet is that Zach MacEwen would be the designated RW. If Chiasson is signed on Tuesday Oct 12th sometime before the first game, then at least one forward would have to be put on waivers for sending to Abbotsford Canucks AHL team (perhaps either Petan or Dowling) to keep us to compliant to the 23-man roster limit (usually teams carry 13 FW, 8D and 2G). I think that is what Jim Benning meant by carving out a spot for Chiasson if he is signed. On the other hand, if Chiasson is released then one of the other forwards who can play both sides would likely switch to 3rd line RW and Zack will be RW on the 4th line. And there would be no need to put anyone on waivers. My gut feeling is that we will see the following if Chiasson is released: Miller Pettersson Podzkolzin Pearson Horvat Garland Highmore Dickinson Hoglander Petan Lammikko MacEwen OEL Myers Hughes Poolman Rathbone Schenn Burroughs Scratches / Extra: Dowling, Hunt Demko Halak Edited October 12, 2021 by SuitcaseSmith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 So I guess with Boeser and Motte injured, we start with: Garland - Pettersson - Miller Petan - Horvat - Hoglander Pearson - Dickinson - Highmore MacEwan - Lammikko - Dowling Podkolzin OEL - Myers Hughes - Poolman Rathbone - Schenn Hunt Demko/Halak Ouch, hate to say it but seems like a regression from last season. Missing Boeser, Motte, Sutter and Hamonic is a BIG blow to this team and suddenly we've got a lot of plugs in our forward group, and that defensive depth is already pushed thin.

Someone has to get sent down. Lammikko is already on the 23 player opening roster. Would need to demote someone if they sign Chiasson and someone else if Boeser can play.

Which seems to be Greens style. Perimeter Anyone know what’s going on with Gadjovich in San Jose? I notice he’s not on their 23 man roster and I haven’t seen him placed on IR. I wonder if the Canucks would reclaim him if the Sharks try and send him down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My comment was based on Brendan Batchelor's practice lines today where Lammikko had not yet arrived. I know that Lammikko is on the posted opening lineup, which means either Chiasson will be released or else (if he is signed) then someone else will be demoted / put on waivers.

And why is Chiasson on the first line with Miller and Petey?? Chiasson is likely a practice placeholder for Boeser as they have not signed him. It might indicate the Canucks believe Boeser will be a go. Hoglander on the 4th line is inexplicable. If they needed a placeholder for Boeser who can actually play there if he isn’t ready, just put Hoglander there. Green’s unwavering need to have Pearson in the top 6 is very likely going to push Hoglander down the lineup.

wallstreetamigo Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Top 6 with Boeser out should be: Miller-EP-Podkolzin Hoglander-Horvat-Garland Top 6 with Boeser in should be: Miller-EP-Boeser Hoglander-Horvat-Garland 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austy Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 What does everyone think of petan? I'm not a huge fan. He is around the puck a lot which is a skill I guess in that he knows where to be. He just seems pretty sloppy with his skills. He misses a lot of passes, whiffs on shots. Then he will make a few nice plays. Maybe due to all his touches I am being too harsh? He seems to be the opposite of podz who seems to has fewer touches but rarely makes a bad pass flubs a pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I notice he’s not on their 23 man roster and I haven’t seen him placed on IR. I wonder if the Canucks would reclaim him if the Sharks try and send him down? They are sorting his visa so he is likely declared as non roster. They have the cap space and roster spot to have him on the opening roster. If the Sharks put him back on waivers the normal waiver order applies - Vancouver are 9th till 1 November ( after that date it’s this season’s point percentage that apply). If another team with later priority put in a claim the Canucks would have to keep him on the NHL roster or put him back through waivers to be sent to Abbotsford. Happened with Boucher. NJD was the initial waiving team and claimed him back when Nashville put him back on waivers. NJD had priority but couldn’t send him to the AHL because another team had also put in a claim. They then tried again to send him through waivers to the AHL and Vancouver claimed him then. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary to think this team could finish with a worse record. I like out goaltending better, our D slightly better and same as the forward group (when healthy) but it could be more of the same. Best part will be watching the group in Abbotsford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
