I'm really glad that we were able to send Kassian down. He really needs the playing time and could use more time developing for the NHL. Glad Lack and Tanev are going too, gives them more playing time to get NHL ready. The guy I'm most curious about is Joe Cannata. He had a really good college career, think he was a hobby baker finalist. Boy, if he can develop nicely like the way Lack and Schneids did, we'd have some nice assets to trade for something really good. Hopefully Rollie the goalie can spend a lot of time in Chicago to help our two young back stops improve their game.

Just curious, didn't see Pinozotto and Volpati on that list. Are they still injured or inelgible or something?

Yeah for Kassian and Tanev this is great news, as they get more experience/training while the veteran pro's get a bit rusty this Fall.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

No NHL, better get those tix fast!, all these AHL/Junior games are going to be sold out from us hardcore hockey fans, all those dollars those billionaires are used to getting will now be going to the thousandaires who run the AHL/WHL/OHL/QMJHL etc. :thumbs:

Pacific Coliseum should be even more packed than usual this season, I better get one of those ticket packs!
