Re: Canucks Young Guns
Like how the Canucks are managing this. An AHL PTO for the balance of the year then a one year AHL contract. Doesn't take up a contract with the big club and gets bodies into Abbotsford. Nice that they have been able to do it twice now. If either player seems to look good then the Canucks can get them under contract after that. Also gives them a year with Manny who will eventually be the Canucks coach.
