[Hiring] Manny Malhotra as Abbotsford Canucks Head Coach
Goose replied to Visp's topic in Canucks Talk
so awesome. no doubt the Sedins vouched heavily for Manny. Great add for the young guys coming up -
Brandon Duhaime 27 RW 3 x 1.8 (Duhaime + Podz = bash bros) Michael Amadio 28 C 3 x 3.1 (3c)

Heading back to Sweden

Daily Faceoff / FP Analytics projecting Lindholm 5 x 6.7 That’s really interesting.
-
I dont watch South Park much. Sorry! If that makes me “dense” so be it
-
referring more to entering the zone. they could do both (skate in or dump). Canucks PP1 had a really tough time dumping it in (2nd unit was better at it). If PP1 had that dump in option threat it might help w skating the puck in more often
-
literally just called me pal

Lighten up, PAL

Ok champ

It was a joke

Hronek is Czech

more personnel issue imo. EDM for example would often dump the puck in on their PP and retrieve it because they had guys like Hyman, Nugent Hopkins, McDavid, Draisatl who could all retrieve/battle. Canucks could really use a couple of guys that can do that in the bumper/net front. The returning players will likely see the need to improve there as well
-
to be fair though a knee injury can imply ligament damage which is more of a pain threshold thing which would definitely affect his ability to skate hard. if his knee was structurally unsound (instability) he’d likely not have been in the line up. the falling over thing is likely just part of his physical maturation / dealing with bigger humans in the NHL
-
I really like Teddy. His demeanour and professionalism is 10/10. You know exactly what youre getting from the guy and a key PKr for the team. Really hope he’s back. Hoping Z was hinting at re-signing too
-
just my guy but he’d rather just go to arbitration, do that 1 year deal and then go UFA. He’s going to want to cash in on his year w Hughes
-
ah gotcha. no worries
-
The criticism Brock received was more than fair. I didnt think he was doing enough w/o the puck. Mgmt and Tocchet challenged him as well. To his credit he stepped up big time. I wonder what he’s thinking going forward. He’s made a ton of money despite some previous lacklustre results. If he works w the team to stick around I would love it.

Im surprised how pedestrian Lafferty ended up being. Thought for sure we’d see him being a cruise missile more often. Ah well. The search continues -

Rick’s the best -
If they cant afford Guentzel/isnt available, another guy I really like is Chandler Stephenson. Excellent skater, wing or C, and while not the sexiest statline he is the type of player that helps a line go from D to O zone. I could see him being a fit w Petey or Miller.
-
Brendon Dillon should be on the list imo edit: and Chandler Stephenson
-
Isnt Garland a + contributor though? I see him on Miller’s wing next year. JG would be nice but at age 30 next year and his contract price I wonder.
-
IMO go w if possible: Hughes Tanev Soucy Myers Dillon Juulsen Id hate to lose Z but Dillon would be a great replacement and that’s still a physical D to deal w.
-
also (Im sure Ill have 100x more of these) but I think its time for Garland to move into the top 6. Him and Miller are good friends and just how well he supports/digs/comes up w loose pucks would compliment Miller and boeser or joshua depending on what happens. I do think Miller would thrive having Garland on his line. Also, Brendon Dillon should be an off season target and could mitigate a loss of Big Z on the back end
-
Also the Canucks need an aggressive PP player who can make life hell for the opposing PK battling/winning loose pucks. The net front/bumper spots need someone w an aggressive style of play.
