i don't know why tje canucks need another center

2 year deal worth $2million

i thought nonis was going after another winger? chouinard looks to be another checking centre and i don't think we need another one of those

[jbyun04 7]

maybe

cooke-reid-kesler

burrows-chouinard-linden

[Duder84 0]

oh thats right, i forgot kesler and linden plays wing too....hopefully kesler will produce more this year, we still need a top line winger or two

[McCabe24 0]

Underrated player but who plays right wing on the top two lines? Unless they leave Morrison in the dust and play Naslund with the Sedin twins.

[jbyun04 7]

unless nonis needs the rest of the cap space to sign carter, linden, kesler and whoever else

naslund-morrison-kesler

sedin-sedin-carter

cooke-chouinard-king

burrows-reid-linden

is also a possibility

when kesler was on the top line last season he was on fire so you never know

[McCabe24 0]

Looks solid, there are a lot of quality players on the bottom two lines who could move up, the team just won't be as offensive as they were before Bert went downhill. Luongo makes up for that though.

I'd rather have Jesse Schultz over King

schultz is another goren in a way that he can't skate good enough at the NHL level

i thought he was tops in on the team in scoring last year? and who knows, king had some success with the sedins in the past, maybe he'll finally break out

if he ever recovers from PCS

Sportsnet seems to call Chouinard a faceoff specialist who can also play on the wing.... but he only won like 52% of his faceoffs, Nonis is probably filling in the gap Ruutu left

The Canucks don't need someone who takes dumb penalties again.
