Name a random Canuck

He was awful

Hurt his shoulder at the very start of the season, or maybe in the preseason. I think he'd had surgery in the offseason and the early injury compounded on the offseason recovery and he just looked slow and out of step, and never really settled in.

I think about Todd Warriner way too much.

Dave Roberts.

As an aside, the number of names in here who were national team members makes me kind of miss the days of the national team being an actual sustained entity and players like Gregg or Plavsic delaying their career or stepping away to play in the Olympics. A guy like Sean Burke putting his career on hold to go play for the national team and compete in the Olympics added some sort of mystique to it that, IMO, has been lost. I still remember Plavsic rejoining the team after playing the first chunk of the year with the national team and winning silver at the Olympics, and how that seemed like such a big deal.

Good old “One Touch”.

On that note - Trevor Letowski.

Underrated trade by Burke getting rid of Drake Berehowsky and Denis Pederson for Letowski, Warriner and Bouck. Letowski was a solid bottom six player for us, Warriner had a few decent games and even bagged a goal in the playoffs, and Prince George Cougars legend Tyler Bouck saw some action with the Canucks while being a fixture with the Moose for a few years too.
