They need Silovs still, so they're giving him a game against a (lesser) opponent to hopefully bounce back and regain some confidence. If it doesn't then you look at Abby or other plans.

I'd still expect Lankinen to get a long run after this.

I want to see some new lines once Joshua returns:

DeBrusk-Miller-Boeser
Joshua-Pettersson-Garland
Hoglander-Blueger-Sherwood
Heinen-Suter-Bains
Sprong

I think that's a good overall mix of talent and grit throughout the lineup. Rotate Sprong in and out depending on injuries and performance. They really need to get DeBrusk going.

Where do we get the idea that Silovs is starting?

It shows up on the score app of all places that he's the confirmed starter. On (what I think is) a more reputable site, leftwinglock it still shows no confirmed starter with Lankinen projected.

Trotting Silovs back out there against an on-paper inferior opponent after getting shelled isn't the craziest idea, but I still think it makes our chances of winning less.

SJ doesn't suck as bad as last year, they try to win and can score.
If Silovs starts just get atleast one point, but I'll take the over again can't say no to easy money.

No confirmed starter according to Canucks beat writers.

It’s showed Silovs confirmed on the score app for a few days, probably a glitch. I’d be shocked if Lankinen didn’t start after last game.

It's the scorebox app showing Silovs as confirmed and Canucks reddit is running with it.

I actually don't mind starting Silovs. While he wasn't good, neither was anyone else. They need to play better in front of both goalies not just Lankinen. At the same time, I think it's better to give Silovs a chance to redeem himself instead of sitting him for another 5-6 games to stew on a horrendous loss.

That all being said, keep a short leash.
