Canucks power play rotation philosophy and how and why other NHL teams do it and benefit from it.

Found what Tocchet had to say about PP rotations really interesting.

I’m particular, using McDavid and Crosby as examples for why he doesn’t like dedicated spots on the man advantage. #Canucks https://t.co/PDKaTPqZlK

Media personalities at training camp agree that the Canucks should expect an incredible battle for the final roster spots.

Wrapping up Canucks camp from Victoria; the team was all business over the last three days.

It’s going to be an incredibly tight battle for the final roster spots.
