VANCOUVER -- As the old saying goes, good timing is everything -- and Chris Tanev is reaping its rewards.

As he embarked on his first pro season, the 21-year-old Vancouver Canucks rookie was not expected to be called up from the minors, but he was. Now, two injuries to veteran defensemen have extended his stay.

"It's been really good," said Tanev. "I've really learned a lot. All these guys are really good guys and they're teaching me new stuff every day on how to be a pro and stuff like that."
