Iain MacIntyre: Canucks built to be less brittle down middle

One team, so many questions.

Can Danny and Hank Sedin remain top-10 scorers at age 35? Is the defence good enough? Are Jake Virtanen and Jared McCann really ready for the NHL at 19? Will Bo Horvat endure a sophomore slump? Will Dan Hamhuis finish the season with the Canucks? Will Chris Higgins start it? Can Jacob Markstrom replace Eddie Lack? Will his mom tweet? Will coach Willie Desjardins replace anything besides his hip?

Well, we have no idea.

What we do know about the 2015-16 Canucks is that the summer acquisition of Brandon Sutter from the Pittsburgh Penguins should give Vancouver its strongest one-two-three punch at centre since Manny Malhotra nearly lost an eye in 2011.
