Canucks camp thus far has been brought to you by pace and tempo. Those are the two words being thrown around the most by players and coaches, who have all noted that camp is visibly faster this year.
Coach Green has tailored his practices to get the most out of the players and even on day three, he has yet to see a drop in pace or tempo.
"We've done a lot of structure stuff in practice, yet kept the pace high in practice," said Green. "I thought today I might see a bit of a drop-off, but the guys were skating hard again."
Today's player of note was Petrus Palmu. The 21-year-old Finnish forward scored the third Team White goal and has been impressing coach Green even in practice.
"He was good today, I thought he looked good in practice and in the game. He's strong on his feet, he's short in stature, but he's thick - like someone else I know (Green said, looking at Sportsnet650 play-by-play man Brendan Batchlor, laughing.) I'm joking. But I've liked him so far."
