Canucks icing their A team: LineUp for the Oilers matchup is out
The Canucks are now in preparation for their fourth pre-season meeting and first in Vancouver as they are set to square off with the Edmonton Oilers tonight.
Showing a 0-2-1 record after their games in Edmonton, Seattle and Calgary. Rick Tocchet has decided to ice his A team ahead of tonight's tilt:
Kuzmenko-Pettersson-Beauvillier
PDG-Miller-Boeser
Höglander-Suter-Garland
Aman-Blueger-Studnicka
Hughes-McWard
Cole-Hronek
Soucy-Myers
#Canucks icing close to their opening night D tonight
On top of that, everything points to Thatcher Demko being the starter.
Interesting to see that Cole McWard will be getting a second audition alongside Quinn Hughes. The rookie has done well since the training camp's debut and he may just be this year's revelation.
