With the addition of Lindholm, I legit think this team is better than 2011

 

Miller + Petey is > Sedins 

Lindholm = Kesler 

Boeser > Burrows 

Mik > Samuelsson 

Garland Bleuger Joshua  > Higgins Malhotra Torres

Suter Aman Hogz > glass oreskovich and whoever else played... 

 

Hughes > ehrhoff (by a wide margin) 

Hronek = Hamhuis

Soucy Cole < Edler Salo 

Z and Myers <= Juice Rome 

 

Our defense isn't as deep but we have a legit Norris front runner supported by a much larger defense unit which is built for the playoffs. 

I would rather roll with Soucy Cole Myers and Z than Edler, Salo, Juice and Rome. 

Rome is like our Juulsen and would be 7D on this team. 

I love juice and he's made for the playoffs but he also makes ill timed pinches and some bone headed decisions. (let's not let his amazing character overlook objectivity) 

Salo is a solid player but is made of Glass. 

Edler was solid. 

I like this teams ruggedness and size and think it'll bode well for the playoffs. 

 

Demmer = Schneider or Lu 

 

This team is built for a cup run. 

If we can get a legit 3D, we'd be instant favorites.

Crazy we are only 7 wins away from 40. When was the last time we hit 40 wins? 2015? 

'21-'22, actually.

I feel like it's important to win this first game with Lindholm to prevent even a tiny bit of doubt from setting in that it was a good move. I'm imagining a scenario (because I'm a long-suffering Canucks fan, I can't help it) where we lose the game tonight and the Petey/Lindholm line is held off the scoresheet  and is like -2, while Calgary wins big and Kuzmenko gets a hat trick, and the negative nellys come out of the woodwork.

 

So tonight, I pull out my Canucks jersey, hat AND flag that I reserve for big games only. GCG!

Game Day Poll

 

Canucks & Flames are both playing pretty good defensive teams tonight. 

 

Poll question:  Who has a better debut (points wise) for their new team? 

 

1.) Lindholm 

2.) Kuzmenko 

3.) They both get the same amount.

Blacks are great.   Whites are even better.   Sure hope they "free the skate" this off-season.   Home "whites".   For away games works just fine.

Joshua-Bluegar-Garland might be good but they’re not Higgins-Malhotra-Torres good in my opinion.
