The canucks have 49 Points in 38 games
Goals For [112]
Goals Against [100]
They lost Dan Hamhuis for nearly half the season already, yet they have not missed a beat.
Here are the Forward Lines as of right now.
Sedin Sedin Vrbata
Higgins Bonino Burrows
Matthias Richardson Kassian
Dorsett Horvat Hansen
Vey
Lets take a look at the forward group; I think the clear sign of strength the Canucks have is the bottom 6. The depth especially is amongst the best in the NHL. That being said, the second line is clearly amongst the bottom if the league on paper.
Lets take a look at the Defense.
Edler Tanev
Stanton Beksa
Sbisa Weber
Hamhuis (Injured)
Looking at the defensive core; they seem to have a clear lack of depth overall. Hamhuis being injured has pretty much forced Edler and Tanev to find another gear, which they absolutely have.
Edler especially looks like the player people were hoping he would be a few years ago, when he was amongst the fastest risers along the blue line in the NHL.
Lets take a look at the goal-tending.
Ryan Miller
Eddie Lack
Goal-tending overall this year has been above average. Miller has been playing great as of late, but has had a few stretches where he was letting in a few more goals then he would have liked.
Eddie Lack had a rough start to the season, but just like Miller has been great recently. His last 5 games especially he has had some very useful and productive starts.
Lets take a look at the Coaching.
Willie Desjardins
this is the most important and key reason for the canucks success so far this season, it's no coincidence why the bottom 6 is playing so well, when Desjardins is such a huge fan on rolling four lines.
So what does everybody think about the Canucks play so far this season?
