This D core gives me a lot of hope (piefed.social)

Hey, thanks for starting this community

I'm just pumped about the upside of DPetey, Willander, and Mancini. Idk about this year, but they have the potential to make this not just the one of the best D cores in the league, but with 3 elcs it could also be one of the cheapest. I love Myers and forbert, but if the young guys can make them expendable and the team can allocate that money to some better forwards, that would be unreal.

They're in a great position to learn too, with Foote as a coach and Hughes as a captain.

Now if the Canucks can get a legitimate 2c and push chytil and blueger to 3c and 4c, suddenly this team is looking pretty deep.

Chytil will begin the year as the #2C. Hoping that the man can remain healthy and show what he can do with a healthy season under his belt. Defence looks good. Curious to see if Willander and Mancini can make the squad, as their inclusion would be even more promising for the club's backend moving forward.
