5th overall.
I think the guy truly loves the team and being in the organization. He’s constantly liking all the Canucks posts on Instagram.

In all fairness to Tolopilo and Silovs, this Abbotsford Canuck blueline is really starting to 'wobble' without Brannstrom, Friedman and now Elias Pettersson II.
In the highlight package last night from Colorado, the Canucks were surrendering a bushel-full of 10-bell chances in every period. They really need to be getting more from AHL-vets like Woo and Wolanin.

Young is having a great year down there based on his stats. 926 sv%, winning record on a last place team. Then again, the echl really sucks so who knows. It'd be nice to see him get a game or 2 for excelling at that level.

Abbotsford plays five times over the Four Nations break. I hope that means five games for Mancini, so we can get a chance to see what the Canucks have there, and it'd be great if Young got another shot at the AHL too.
(The games are on Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday, Wednesday.)
I'm surprised by Young. Didn't know what management was thinking signing him so early but I guess there might be something there.

Got better as he went along in his call-ups to Abbotsford. Went from looking shaky initially to not looking bad. His numbers in the ECHL are good, similar to Silovs in his D+3 and Young is six months younger as well. Doing okay for a 5th-round goalie who's only five months beyond his 20th birthday. I left him at #12 again in my prospect rankings but I was quite tempted to jump him ahead of some of the age 23/24 guys that I've placed immediately above him.
