Last minute change in the Canucks line-up and Podkolzin gets a promotion
Canucks are down in the big apple tonight to face the Rangers and Tocchet will give his line-up a shake.
Coming off a hard fought OT loss on Monday against the Devils, Tocchet has officially promoted Vasily Podkolzin to the top6. He'll play on Miller and Garland's left. The first unit remains unchanged with Beauvilier, Pettersson and Kuzmenko. Joshua, Dries and Boeser compose the 3rd line, while PDG, Aman and Lazar are the 4th.
The defensive shows no change, Ethan Bear and Quinn Hughes will still pilot the team's top pair. Spencer Martin will guard the cage yet again.
Podkolzin just made his way back to the NHL after spending some time down in Abbotsford, he displayed great confidence in his first game back and we hope he can build momentum out of that.
