Canucks announce their roster ahead of their game against the Kraken
The Canucks were in Edmonton last night involved in a tightly disputed game with Connor McDavid and his troops. The Canucks had back-to-back games with divisional rivals as they'll be headed to Seattle tonight for their first pre-season win.
CANUCKS ANNOUNCES THEIR ROSTER
The Canucks issued a statement confirming their line-up ahead of tonight's game. Tocchet will have veteran Conor Garland, Sheldon Dries, Dakota Joshua, Guillaume Brisebois and Christian Wolanin back on the line-up. The team will feature its expected second line of J.T. Miller, Brock Boeser and Phil Di Giuseppe. Pius Suter and Ian Cole will first appear under Canucks' colours.
UNDER THE MICROSCOPE
Dakota Joshua was pointed out earlier this week as one player who needed to give more. He played well last night in Edmonton, but a little consistency won't hurt. Vasily Podkolzin will be given another opportunity to prove he's ready to take on a more significant role in Vancouver.
The camp's surprise up to this point, Arshdeep Bains, will once again be in the line-up.
