I& #39;m gonna make a Twitter thread of my #positive Canucks predictions. Y& #39;all can mute it if you can& #39;t handle the positivity.
Brock Boeser: He will pot 40 goals. Calling it here. He will be ready to slay this season.
Bo horvat: The Captain. He& #39;s going to trend up from a 50-60 point player to an 80 point player.
Elias Pettersson: He& #39;s not going to have a sophomore slump. He& #39;s going to become an 80+ point player. Maybe close to 90.
J.T. Miller. He will go back and forth between the first and second lines. He& #39;s going to mesh well with both centres and be a solid 50-60 point player
Tanner Pearson: he will solidify his spot with Boho.
Adam Gaudette: Edges out Sutter for 3C. Pots in 15-20 goals.

Your bottom 6 will consist of players continually contributing to the penalty kill. The kill will not take a hit compared to last season. Eriksson solidifies himself as a 3rd liner putting up reasonable numbers.
Goldobin: finds his footing in the NHL. Whether it& #39;s on the 2nd or 3rd line, he figures it out.
Let& #39;s move onto defence.
Edler: As usual plays like a horse, crunches those minutes and helps to mentor the young guns. Matches career year in point totals.

Tyler Myers: he will be that heavy point shot on the PP. Trigger man will have a career year on a high octane power play.
Quin Hughes: whoever his defensive partner is will benefit from him. You& #39;re looking at your 2019-2020 Calder winner. 40 points I& #39;m calling it.
Tanev/Stecher: Both will play full seasons. Stetcher takes a step up, Tanev will bounce back. Shutdown defensemen.
Let& #39;s get to the Goalies.
Markstrom: Will likely continue to put up decent numbers as a goalie. But I will say that Demko may edge him out by the end of the season. Canucks Goalie controversy #7820234

Alright finally the prospects:
Dipietro: he will easily take over the net in Utica. My prediction he will be the starter by second half of the season.

Kole Lind: puts himself back on the map and into lineup discussions. We will see him get called up.
Jonah Gadjovich: he will solidify himself in the AHL. Future 3rd or 4th line player in the NHL

We have a bunch of prospects not in the AHL or NHL so all those guys will take steps forwards. I see next year as a pivotal moment for this franchise. No more "let& #39;s see what happens".
Things WILL happen.
Things WILL happen.
