The Vancouver Canucks‘ lack of offence from the back end has been a topic of discussion for what seems like decades. The last time they could boast multiple 30-plus point defencemen was back in the 2011-12 season when Alex Edler, Kevin Bieksa, and Dan Hamhuis managed the feat. That is a long time to be without offence from the backend.
The black hole that is defence scoring is about to close, as I believe the Canucks will once again have three 30-plus point defensemen in 2019-20. Edler will finally have company at the top of the mountain.
