this is really not saying muchNate Schmidt has been the canucks best Defenseman this season.
Team has a Bottom 9Pearson belongs in the bottom 6.
really? what makes you think that?I feel like Pettersson has hit a bit of a slump. Hopefully he regains his form soon because the team could really use it
I learned two things from this game
1) we signed Travis Hamonic, apparently
2) Travis Hamonic is just absolutely godawful. Holy jeebus, bring back Jordie Benn.
Lucky that they have 6 PP instead of 6PK. Would have put more pressure on the D to make up for the 15 minutes Edler missed.This defense is a tire fire lol
Chatfield was a lot more solid than expected
Pros and cons 5 games into the season
pros
-Horvat looks rejuvenated
-Boeser looks rejuvenated
-Miller still looks like his elite
-Schmidt has been solid
-Hoglander looks like a serviceable top 6 forward
Cons
-Pk terrible
-D coverage terrible
-Hamonic awful
-Pettersson forgot how to play hockey
-Hughes couldn't defend a parked car
Blocked and reported.Edler and Hamonic out next game would mean:
Hughes Chatfield
Benn Schmidt
Juolevi Myers
Cant see how wed lose with that lineup. If Schmidt goes down, then:
Hughes Chatfield
Benn Rafferty
Juolevi Myers
