Vancouver Canucks X-Factors – Season of Uncertainties

The 2015-16 version of the Vancouver Canucks seems to be turning heads early in this 82-game season. Though perhaps a premature conclusion to amplify their 3-1-1 record to a 48-18-16 record over 82 games, this team looked resilient in all situations: no glaring bad goals on now-undisputed-starter Ryan Miller, no ‘pizza plays’ by our scapegoat Luca Sbisa, and no rookies are falling behind. Just not quite yet.

The squad is littered with pleasant surprises this year. Just the fact that Ben Hutton made it onto the NHL roster and bumped Yannik Weber and his exceptionally cap-friendly contract off the Canucks top-6, is a testament of where this management is going.
