Horvat progresses to a 60-70p pace. Sedins play at a similar pace. Edler-Tanev stay healthy.
Honestly not a lot needs to go right for this to be a playoff squad (pretender). It's pretty easy to sneak in as the PAC#3...
Our only hope is for a new President of Hockey Operations, new General Manager, and new Assistant General Manager to be brought in. Linden, Benning, and Weisbrod all have to be turfed before this team will improve.
Others don't seem as optimistic about this, but I could still see Baertschi potentially taking an unexpected next step that amazes people, personally.
I'm also a little surprised that there aren't more Gaudette believers. While we've been conditioned to be skeptical, personally, I don't see a compelling reason to doubt his chances of making the team and looking like an early Hansen/Burrows type right away.
Horvat, Baertschi, Boeser, Markstrom, Gaudette, Gaunce are the only guys that I have a really good feeling about this upcoming season. Stecher and Hutton I think could go either way.
Boeser & Horvat.
Is that it?

Gaudette in 2017-18?
Isn't he going back to Northeastern? Did I miss an announcement?
Boeser & Horvat.

While he wouldn't be at training camp like dude implies, I think it's likely the Canucks try to get him signed after his season and get him in some NHL games at the end of this year like they did with Boeser.
College players don't attend training camps.
I mean they can but they'd have to pay everything themselves and so never do.
If he's returning to Northeastern then he won't be at camp this fall.
