Abbotsford Canucks | Season Starting

[Blue and Green]

They've dressed seven defencemen. Wolanin is not one of them.

 

[Lindgren]

Why TF is Lekkerimaki not playing?

Also, they should do Wolanin a solid and move him somewhere where he'd get a better opportunity.

 

[Vector]

Lekkerimaki didn’t participate in the scrimmage either so he’s definitely hurt.

Hopefully Allvin manages a way to get rid of Hirose. Send Ahac and maybe Felton down to the ECHL for now.

 

[David Bruce Banner]

Yeah, this D situation cannot hold.

 

[Blue and Green]

2:00 remaining in the first, Abby takes a 1-0. Slick backhand feed from newcomer Twarynski to Wouters all alone at the front of net, he puts it home. Pretty good play at the blue line by Kudryavtsev to get the puck to Twarynski for the second assist.

Barely finished typing that paragraph and it's 2-0. Brannstrom went in deep, circled behind the net, threw the puck in front and it went in off of Blais' skate. Wouters got the second assist but kudos to Klimovich for some good work that led to the scoring sequence.

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Nice to see them jump out to a 2-0 lead. First pro point for Kudryatsev, too.

Also noticed Wolanin not playing. Bummer. Feel like one of him or Brannstrom might be a good fit on the third pair right about now.

 

[HOPE]

I'm confused, i picked him in my keepers league because he had a great showing in preseason, no where does it say he was sent back to the AHL and he hasn't played in the NHL nor is playing in the AHL tonight...

 

[Blue and Green]

Smith chips the puck to Klimovich, he breaks in all alone and buries a wrist shot low to the glove side. 3-0 Abby, 15:00 left in the 2nd period.

Something to keep in mind is it's going to be a looooot easier playing the Wranglers now that Wolf has been finally promoted to Calgary. It seems like for the most part Abbotsford was the better team in their matchups in the past but Wolf was always coming up big. On top of that some of Calgary's young talent were also promoted.
