The Vancouver Canucks’ season this year has not been surprising, but stressful nonetheless. There is no doubt they are a deep team; yet, their young players are still developing, and the veterans on the team are digressing. Weather they win/lose is a coin toss each game.

Granlund is a solid intangible player with offensive upside.
