Blackfish: Canucks Army Weekly Prospect Report – December 22nd, 2016
7 years ago
After a one week hiatus, we are back for another edition of Blackfish: Canucks Army Prospect Report.
It’s always an exciting time of the year as the World Juniors kick off on Monday. The Canucks will have two representatives at this year’s tournament, with two of their prospects being late cuts (one due to injury).
The NCAA sees a bit of a slowdown with the semester change, and the CHL has a bit of a Christmas break – but that doesn’t mean there isn’t plenty to digest.
So let’s dive in!
