Vigneault reveals Canucks' top 2 lines for the season's start

Sedin-Sedin-Bernier
Pyatt-Demitra-Raymond

Unless something drastically changes, those will be the top 2 lines. Demitra knew who his linemates would be for a while now.
"Even before I came here those were the two guys I was supposed to play with all year," Demitra said. "It's nice we start learning and knowing how everybody plays, get in a couple of games and get ready for the season."
Wow. Before he even got here. Special.
So Pyatt gets the nod. Interesting. Now we know that AV had no intention of splitting up Kesler and Burrows. Wise move.

More on this from the Vancouver Sun.

    This is Pyatt's last chance to step up and show he is a top-6 forward.

    The combo of Pyatt-Demitra-Raymond has a helluva lot of potential, and I could see Bernier fitting nicely with the Sedins. That being said, we're still going to need offense from the 3rd and 4th lines :-0

    Would you rather see Raymond with the Sedins? Who else could fill that gap?

    Offence from Line 3? Kesler and Burrows! No problem!
    I see a Stanley Cup coming....:)

    Ha! Bernier on the first line? Pyatt & Raymond? Canucks finish out of the playoffs with that kinda lineup.

    And, no, I'm not a Canucks fan!
