If the Canucks are in a playoff spot at Christmas and If Management can pull off another trade like they did last year and if Pettersson can show up in the playoffs the Canucks can win the cup . 
Pettersson being invisible in the playoffs is a recipe for disaster, team can’t do it without him.

1) Canucks make the playoffs.

 

2) Alf hates the stinky city and the shit fans of every team we face in the playoffs.

 

3) Mrs. Alf suffers through another Leafs early exit, causing Alf to drink even more than last season.

 

4] At least 6 clowns, thinking they”re smart and unique reply to one of my posts with something along the lines of “user name checks out”

 

5) CDC sets a new season alcohol consumption record..

Chef Allvin keeps cooking and continues to be the most aggressive gm.

 

Canucks lead the league in trades and kick start the trade deadline storm again, much like last season.

 

Canucks acquire a top 4 D

 

 

Boeser hits 30 plus

 

Petey hits 40 plus

 

Despite the media rumors, Demko has a solid healthy year, Vezina finalist.

 

Hughes wins Norris again

 

Canucks finish first in the Pacific 

 

Not going to make any playoff predictions.

My predictions for Canucks stats:

 

image.thumb.png.400eb63ac6122f99a401cb5d39c0173c.png

 

Players:

- Miller and Pettersson have similar years to last year, but finish closer to each other in scoring.

- Pettersson finishes 6th in Selke voting and top three in Lady Byng voting again

- Hughes finishes 2nd in Norris voting to Makar

- Boeser's scoring drops as his shooting % comes down to earth and some fans have a problem with him again

- DeBrush thrives with Petey and scores a career-best 28 goals

- Garland has a steady year being used on all four lines

- Hronek scores more goals, but has fewer assists. His shot is great on the powerplay.

- Heinen, Sprong, and Hoglander all play on all four lines as the team juggles the lines

- Sherwood is a fan favourite and thrives on the bottom six

- Joshua has injury problems and his scoring drops as he goes through an extended slump

- Karlsson is the young guy who gets a chance--he's just okay

- Desharnais is a surprisingly solid player, but not overly impressive and struggles against tougher competition

- Juulsen struggles to beat out Desharnais for the no. 6 spot and plays as the no. 7 defenseman

- Demko is injured to start the season, but when he comes back, he helps the team immensely after a slow start

- Patera swaps starts with Silovs for the start of the year

- Silovs struggles with consistency

 

Team:

- Team goes 45-27-10 for 100 points, finishing 3rd in the Pacific behind the Oilers and Golden Knights

- The team scores 268 goals and allows 245 goals

- Net PP% finishes 10th and their net PK % finishes 20th

- Team beats Vegas in seven games in round one, beats Edmonton in six games in round two, and loses to the Avalanche in five games in the Western Conference Final.

 

Around the league:

- Bedard scores exactly 100 points

- Makar wins the Norris and scores 97 points doing so

- McDavid wins the Hart, Ted Lindsay, and Art Ross with 40 goals and 95 assists for 135 points

- The Avalanche win the Cup and Makar wins the Conn Smythe

- Shesterkin wins the Vezina

- Dustin Wolf wins the Calder for the Flames

This is the most conservative prediction ever Jess haha. I bet you get a lot of it pretty close.

 

All I’m gonna say is someone will break 100 points again. I’m going with Petey this year, Hughes gets close. Brock doesn’t score 40 but he gets 30.

We take a step back but a weak pacific division gets us in a playoff spot. 
Don’t love our defence and don’t think we a contender because of it. 

You underestimate the Canucks development staff.  Zadorov was a depth defenceman when the Canucks traded for him, Foote and Gonchar turned him into what the Bruins believe is a top 4 D. They will do the same with Desharnais.  The pro scouting see the potential in players and the development staff turn out gems.

Key this season will be Demko & Petey (I'm not worried about JT, Hughes, Boeser). Without having to think about the future, I think Petey can find his game. And with better wingers his assist record will be much better than last.

 

Demko, who knows? Don't think we can win a cup without him being fit, stealing games in the playoffs.
