And would you look at that - called up today...
I have a hunch he is going to make the Canucks next season. Should have immediate value in leagues with blocks and hits and PIM.
He's a solid two-way defenseman with great positional skills and a good stick. Not sure on the offensive upside. His value to the Canucks:
- plays a mature game
- RS and right side d-man (need one on the team)
- cheap/rookie contract (helps with salary cap going down)
He'd be a worthy offseason add in most keeper formats.

Looked good in game one. I wouldn't expect much offense this year or next (if he makes the team), but he did see some PP time near the end of the game.
Played about 17 minutes, had a few big hits, looked composed w/ the puck.
Was at the game and agree he looked good. The guy next to me kept calling him Corrado Soprano (i.e. Junior on the Sopranos) which I thought was funny. Early nickname possibility. A healthy top 6 of Bieksa/Hamhuis/Edler/Garrison/Tanev/Corrado would be pretty sweet.
