Some seasoning in the AHL could do well and a top line of Hog Aman and Klimovich could tear the ahl up. A winning culture in Abby is a good thing for development. Benning had decent draft process but arguably poor in house development 3 hours ago, JM_ said: Hoglander may have been rushed a little bit. He's only 21, once he can correct some defensive play issues he could be a beast for us like BB said. A year in Abby won't hurt him at all. Agree completely. Benning was impatient rushed Hogs as he did with other players. Spending some time in Abby unlearning some bad habits and playing better in his own zone (not to mention rebuilding his confidence) would be a good things for him. There will be injuries on the big team and Hogs can be the first call-up if he does well in Abby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think even if he finds himself in Abby, he’ll be back with the big club in no time. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'cause we were up againts the cap limit and Hog did show some dazzling skills at camp/preseason... anyhow, Hog is an NHLer and he just needs to learn to be more consistent.. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way horvat resigns if he’s pencilled as a third line Center i can hear his agent now asking for a trade. A guy in his prime on a contract a year after career best goals best face-off man on the team rewarded with a demotion. Telling Bo he’s the third line Center is the same as telling him To not resign and to ask for a trade. There has already been pushback on these comments but I will add my 2 cents. First, the Pearson-Miller-Boeser line was very good last year. (Check out https://www.vancouverisawesome.com/canucks-hockey/which-line-combinations-worked-best-for-the-canucks-last-season-5674026) The objective is to get a line where the whole is more than the sum of the parts and this is a good example. This line gets max value from Pearson and also helps Boeser and Miller. It is the smart move in my view. As for Horvat being upset about being on the "3rd line", that is just silly. He will probably be first guy over the boards on the PP and the PK and his "third line" will get just as many 5-on-5 minutes as the "second line".He is still wearing the "C". There is no lack of respect for Horvat and there will be no meaningful difference between those two lines in terms of perceived hierarchy and no one will worry about. On a given night the line that plays better will get more ice time. 2 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night in and night out, Pearson is one of our most consistent guys. I also don't think they are looking at having a 3rd line specifically, I think the plan is to reduce everyone's playing time by having 1a, 1b, 1c and then an energy line, which makes total sense. We have the worst travel schedule in the league, need to have players getting more balanced playing time. We have the depth to roll 3 solid lines. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
