I can give some pregame coverage of tonight by detailing Travis Green’s interview today.

Here is what he said: #Canucks

On tonight’s team:

“Holtby starts. Juolevi, MacEwen and Motte are in.” #canucks

On areas of improvement for tonight:

“We have to start with the special teams. That was a big part of our game. I felt that we had a few guys who could have played better.” #canucks

On Olli Juolevi:

“He’s been pretty good. We couldn’t get him in the line-up because of the cap, but I like him. He’s learning things along the way. He should have a good future in the NHL.” #canucks

On Zack MacEwen:

“I won’t say where he will fit in. I want to give him a shot to give him confidence. He’s playing with two guys who play the puck well.” #canucks

On learning about his team:

“I’m not surprised by the team. They all want to win bad and enjoy playing. I think that our energy has been good, and I want us to sustain that. I know that we have a good group here.” #canucks

On the team’s need for speed:

“It’s been good. Some guys are skating, and guys like Motte help us with the speed. It’s a fast game.” #canucks

On Travis Hamonic:

“He’s been flying under the radar for how well he’s played. He’s been solid in his own zone. He’s everything we envisioned in him.”

On Jimmy Vesey:

“When he first got us, he was playing well. He’s a big body.” #canucks

End of thread. #canucks
