Most of the top teams have a good balance of veteran and young talent.

I can only hope that the Canucks go the same route as Calgary and cling to their vets far past the point of having a chance at winning a cup.
I live in Victoria and take a daily verbal beating on the chosen path of the flames. I would love to give it back for 5-6 yeras.
