My thoughts as well. Caveat being that Gustavsson rights himself so they don't fall out completely

Fowler has really solidified the Blues D. The Blues are starting to come together at a good time. Holloway and Broberg have been welcome additions, and Bolduc is gaining more experience and looking like a a legit top 6 player. Kyrou, Thomas and Holloway are stars, Schenn and Buch chip in and bring leadership. I like how they are playing and coming together.

I loved the Fowler deal for them when they made it even though many panned it. Broberg showed tremendous poise in playoffs last year. He's a kid on the rise. I love how they use Hofer just enough but not too much.

I'm worried about the fracture in the Canucks locker room on top of their spotty goaltending

Agreed. Veteran acquisitions are underrated

It amazes me how a lot of posters pick apart every little mistake when assessing players coaches and teams. Fowler is a good player and better that what they had

These guys must be a riot at their jobs

"Hey. That guy put too much salt on the fries. Man, that rookie should NOT be on the shake machine. Freaking manager didn't order enough pickles AGAIN"

Pity their wives and kids eh?
