McWard was at best a #4 AHL defenceman last season.i have a feeling Mcward is gonna be on the team this year.

It increasingly feels like the Canucks got an absolute steal in the Mikheyev cap dump.

so is juulsen still in the canuck's plans? signing friedman and desharnais is not definitive but certainly not an endorsement.
i had a feeling at the time that the goal juulsen caused against the oilers might have killed his canuck career. one of those plays that is so important and so dumb and badly timed and typical of your particular weakness as a player that it finishes you in an organization.
if they add a left hand depth dman more credible than friedman i'd say it is official.

Someone is really going to have to blatantly win a spot for the Canucks to put a player on waivers that they wouldn't need too.At the expense of who? They already have 10 defencemen signed to one-way contracts and 11 that require waivers.

Just based on them always bringing his name upI think he'll play the same role as last year - #7 D-man.
I don't think the Friedman signing changes much. I think the coaching staff made it pretty clear last year that they prefer Juulsen over him. Friedman will likely spend a lot of time in Abby.
AFAIK he wasn't anything special in the AHL so it'd be a pretty big jump for him to make the team.
Reparations to Van for the Toews/Kane/Keith years as well as humanity for their despicable acts.
I know some here prefer not to list Canucks rumours from X on the rumour message board but here you go:

That was a weird article because it said that if Guentzel hit UFA they would have made it work to sign him but also that Debrusk was their top priority ... and both can't be true.
It seems like their #1 priority was Guentzel but that they liked their Plan B (Debrusk) enough that they were comfortable not over-committing for their Plan A.
Any playing in Ottawa after being coached by Travis Green for 4 months.So what other top 6 winger might shake loose from now until January?
in Drance's latest article, apparently their Guentzal interest was all a smoke screen and DeBrusk was their true target all along.
Cites that they were really uncomfortable with their ability to meaningly do other things on the roster with a 9.25million caphit taking up resources
It's a fair conclusion to come to and I certainty see how DeBrusk at a more reasonable caphit fits in to their team concept instead...
but don't play with my heart like that!
