Well, in that fantasy, he would spend 5 minutes per game on the ice, and 5 minutes per game in the box. :mrgreen:

Sounds exactly like your Natalie Portman fantasy.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Got er.

So Toronto has a pair of swedish dmen that would slide awefully well into vancouvers mandate to be a top tier skilled outfit in a couple of years. The one who isnt liljegren is the better prospect i believe...samberg?

Yeah, Sandin is doing well (early though) in the AHL, but Liljegren is struggling bigly.

Rumours are Leaves are looking to dump Lilly while they still might get something for him.

Toronto has rushed these two by bringing them to the AHL at age 18 imo.

Should have slow-grilled 'em in Sweden I figure...

Yeah they should have let him stay in Sweden, SHL.

It's a tough call, Liljegren had a tough 2nd AHL season then got injured, I mean even the two-way Juolevi was outscoring him (Olli was leading all AHL rookie dmen) before he got injured himself, & at least OJ was being used by the Comets a lot like Edler is on the Canucks, in all-situations, 1st special teams & was their #1dman down there and had good chemistry with Chatfield.

Getting sidetracked, but as for Liljegren, he seems like he could be an ok 2nd or 3rd pairing QB type in time, but it'll take awhile, like how we are patiently developing Dahlen and not rushing him.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

If Hughes turns out to be that stud top pairing Dman that could be the best thing that ever happened to Juolevi. Assuming two lefties won't be on the top pairing that is.

Blob once went on record claiming that Travis Hamonic “is a stud”. Chef Boi will go on record and unequivocally proclaim that QUINN HUGHES WILL! Will be a stud

His first few years he was trending to be a stud. He never got any better. I think Jacob Trouba will be similar

.@BoHorvat said he feels good and will play tonight. “I was a little scared at first that it was something serious, but it’s not bothering me today. I’m ready to go.”

@BatchHockey

Thatcher Demko is the first goalie off the ice at morning skate. #Canucks #DemkoTime

I'll just add to this post: CONFIRMED.
It's Demko time. Coach Green confirms Thatcher Demko will make his season debut tonight versus Buffalo.

Glad to see him get his chance, hopefully they play hard for him. Thought he would get Detroit actually.
