Vancouver Canucks 2016-2017 schedule
The Young Guns should be fun. I heard you might be able to watch it on line.
I'm hoping maybe the Canucks site will link us when the time comes.
Not to optimistic myself. I was checking out our roster. We've got a bunch of offensive defense men, and defensive offencemen.
Edmonton, Calgary, and Winnipeg have been drafting high. They've got stars.
Oh well...some of our kids have potential. I'm going to hope to be surprised.
About the only chance of seeing these games will have to be on-line as the World Cup of Hockey preliminary round also starts on the 17th, with Canada playing Team Czech Republic at 5:00pm PT.
Here's the roster:

And Calgary are bringing a couple of fighters, not sure who their suppose to tune up cause i don't think anyone else are stocking up on fighters for this tourney
Too bad they weren't here last year. They could have introduced themselves to Pedan.
Oh well...maybe if they make the big club.
BTW, are you watching?
Here's your guys.
Damn. Stupid Edmonton just scored.
Just kidding A_r Although your guys did just score.
Labate 6'4" just had a fight with Edmonton's Betker 6'6". No real winner.
Edmonton's stupid goaltender is making some good, stupid stops.
4-1 for Edmonton, but strangely enough Vancouver didn't look half-bad losing.
The two little guys for Vancouver - Troy Stecher and Michael Carcone - impressed and are going to be hard to overlook. Subban is looking like he'll be ready to move up soon. We're going to be a team of Smurfs maybe.
On Edmonton, their # 1 draft pick Puljujarvi is a beast, and the Goaltender Ellis was making jaw-dropping stops.
Highlights
3-2 Canucks Young Stars against Winnipeg.
Highlights
The first televised preseason game against Edmonton goes at 7:00pm PT today on Sportsnet 1 on the West coast....
Good game. New guys showing their stuff. Edmonton's not bad either.
2-2 for Vancouver right now.
