Lots to like there Megs. He's obviously not ready right now but there are some very encouraging signs he'll be a beauty

The AHL kids look good, should be a strong club again this year if the kids don't make the NHL. Enough to repeat? Tolopilo looks great, so maybe?

Didn't see what happened to Hoglander - hopefully just a tweak.

Mancini has had a good showing - still needs work tracking back into his own zone for the puck, but that can be coached.

Raty is a smart player. There is something more there this year I think.

Saw a replay of a 'not too serious looking hit' he took https://x.com/LachInTheCrease/status/19 ... 2063727896

Damn, it looks like kind of a nothing play, doesn't it?

Let's hope for the best. Hoggy seems supercharged to have a good season.

Ended up not being able to watch it but I did listen to it on the radio. They didn't mention his name a lot, which was probably a very good thing. Foote has some difficult decisions to make regarding the bottom end of the D corp this year, which is a good thing.

What stood out last night was how much more pressure the Canucks bring all over the ice. Dogging pucks hard causing turnovers in all 3 zones was refreshing to see.

I wonder how that will translate against better opposition remains to be seen but then again this was more or less only our depth forwards plus Chytil.
