I so want to see a Tkachuk-Bennett-Brouwer line on opening night!

I am not sure if i've been convinced he should stay wtih the big club yet. His engagement level is high, but unless there's more offense he can show at this level, i think he is back to Junior before game #9.

Good lord. I never read any of that lol. He's a decent top 5/10 prospect on a lot of teams but come on...

I'm annoyed that Jankowski has continually had poor linemates. Give the kid something to work wth so we can see what we have.

The important thing is that you've decided quickly.

I'm in Vancouver too. Pratt is the biggest putz I've ever heard on the radio. I hate everything he says, and the absolute conviction he says it with.

Kulak seems to be a glaring omission. Maybe he already showed enough?

Still lots of preseason to go. I'm sure he'll be fine

Re: Kulak
Coming off a 2 goal performance, that stick needs time to cool.

There is still 17 D in camp and he played in the last game. Looks like it's all new D from last game.

He played in the last game against the Oilers. I would imagine he gets a few more games once the rosters are a little more NHL like.

I don't think so, but this is only Vancouver's third pre-season game.

I think he was already was ahead of him tbh. Kulak has all the tools to be a really good 4/5 in this league. I'm not sure about Spoon but every time I watch him he just seems kind of 'there'. Not a liability, more like a neutral placeholder or something. Kulak is far more dynamic and he isn't far behind defensively either.

You can say/think whatever you want. But he's played a whole one pre-season game with NHLers as of yet. I think you'd be better off taking in a bigger sample size before leaning any which way. But that's just me.
