Paul Cotter scoring a SHG bar-down to be the first Canuck goal of the season was not on my bingo card! :lol:

Nice save by Lankinen, though.

That was beautiful to see him beating on Hyman.

I honestly believe Cotter is going to give us a good number of K. Sherwood type moments whilst playing here....

I think it was a solid signing.

Would agree. I would still consider it a solid signing even if he just give them good tough forechecking 4th line minutes. The scoring is all gravy for me. Just ups his trade value.

Was referring to all of it Lancer...not just goals...Cotter throws a lot of hits, not as many as Keefer but still 2.5 to 3 plus per game...top 30ish in the league AND at 215 lbs can hit to hurt.

Can take a turn at centre if needed.

Skates really well.

Sneaky skill set.

Yeah...solid signing...goals or not.

Oleksiak is also looking like a solid signing.

So far I'm liking the effort. Everyone is skating. Mistakes are being made, but guys are hustling back. It's only game one, but this group already looks like they care a little more.

Manny seems to be implementing a purposeful rope a dope. I can imagine stealing the odd game playing this way.
