Congrats Tant!
Bieksa has impressed me, for a sophomore not making much more than the minimum, not bad at all.
Fitzpatrick is solid, makes me bitch less about letting go of Brown.
Bourdon was apparently sick, so will reserve judgement, didn't do badly when I did see him play, though that's not saying much.
Luongo is everything I dreamed of.
Naslund and the Sedins are dangerous, but duh, we need to mix it up a bit.
Linden is very active, I like his play, Burrows is being given a surprising amount of responsibility but handles it well.
Pyatt is on and off.
Green is not bad.
Kesler is okay, but we need to see more offense.
Cooke is trying, but not showing much.
Krajicek is, so far, really solid IMO, if we have defense problems, it won't be from him.
Vigneault's system works, dangerously close to trapping at times, but you can see it just stop other teams (Detroit in particular) dead in their tracks.

Congrats Tant! Hope everything went well and everyone is doing well.

I have to think that Vigneault isn't going to leave Naslund with the Sedins all year. I think during the PP, there's no better combo, but for even strength, he's gotta do the Naslund/Morrion/Cooke thing and let one of the new guys play with the Sedins. That would (should?) give us at least 2 decent scoring lines providing everyone clicks.
Here's hoping for a win tomorrow for the home opening.
And Luongo kicks ass
