Gotta think Schnu starts next game.

If Schroeds can maintain a decent level of play against the better bigger teams:

Sedin - Sedin - Burrows
Booth - Kesler - Kassian
Raymond/Higgins - Schroeder - Hansen
Higgins/Raymond - Malhotra - Lapierre

Volpatti drawing in for bigger teams.

Lots of room for changing up the lines with the wingers.

We have a deep roster top to bottom.

Does anyone in the West even compare? L.A, maybe?

Thanks! I don't feel we're a Cup team yet, but a couple moves and maybe we got ourselves a SCF this year between the two of us!:handclap:

Canucks - Islanders
Canucks - Rangers
Canucks - Devils

The NYC-area trifecta of SCF opponents.

It's funny how many players throw the puck away faster when Kassian is coming at them. And he's not even throwing that many hits, because he's trying to get back and be responsible defensively. Then when he does catch you, you get slammed :D

The most impressive thing about the canucks is that they've allowed only 9 5on5 goals in 10 games. If you ignore the first game against Anaheim, its 5 goals in 9 games.

If the canucks can (A) figure out their special teams and (B) increase scoring with the return of Kesler+Both while (C) maintaining their stingy 5-on-5 play and great goaltending, they will be a very impressive team indeed!
