Willander was my #2 pick behind Simashev.
Think about it. Playing in North America this year. Smaller rink, figure out angles quicker. More time to get to the gym... Flawless skater, very good vision, elite puck carrier, good first pass, calm with the puck and very good gap control and positioning in neutral and defensive zone coverage.... What is there not to like?
So in 2-3 years Hughes-Willander top pair. Sounds awesome to me!!!
Welcome to the Nucks Tom Willy!!!

Okay... I apologize in advance. Strange request. I'm looking for an place to watch the draft from a bar.... In Nicaragua! Lol! Is there anyone on here that happens to know a place or is here and like to meet up with and watch together? Obviously, I'll find a way via online but figured I'd ask.
Otherwise crossing my fingers that we pick bpa!
Go canucks go!

Podz will be the breakout player on this team this year. I don't expect him to force a spot on the big team out of the gates, for game one of the season. But he'll get his chance, before Christmas and he won't look back. Watch... He's a beast... And about to take the league by storm!!!

My recollection of Brrows was he was a sh!t disturba and not afarid of the odd tussle. He and Bieska were always in the scrums front and centre, is this Baines ? and he did I believe start in the ECHL
Not all qualities are the same but my point, is his drive, determination, and IQ will give him a legit chance to make this team... In a very similar way burrows did. He may not be as much if a shit disturber as burrows but wouldn't be surprised if he adds that element to his this season. Would be a superb story!
-
Sounds like Baines could turn out to be our new burrows? Just needs to be given an opportunity. Compete and IQ are elite.

Should include Kracken GM. Does this include playoffs? Because the Panthers struggled all year.

Wonder if it was like the WKRP episode were Johnny thinks God is talking to him.
"You love me?"
"You want me to seek knowledge?"
"You want me to be a Golf Pro?"
That's going way back... Lol! I was a youngin when that show was on... And I thought I was old lol!

I think they could win it all. Calling a Vegas-Carolina finals.
+1
Might actually be a great final.... If you like refined system play with defence first mentality.

Well, I will admit I was surprised the Oilers coudn't do it this year.
I think the missing element was Kane... he was not a factor at all... either he is hurt or he just had a horrible playoffs.
And their defense just could not consistently deal with the Vegas forecheck... they were scrambling too much.
The Golden Knights are a very good team... last year they didn't make the playoffs, but the previous four years they have been right there.
With the Oilers gone, my prediction is an Eastern team will win it all.
I don't think Vegas or either Seattle/Dallas can beat Carolina/Florida.
If Hill can continue to play well... I think at this point, Vegas could take out Florida or Carolina. Better defence and have played deep into the playoffs 4 out the 5 past years.... With the same core plus complementary additions along the way.

30 years without a Canadian team winning the cup. Coincidence?

Again see all these "hockey" fans trashing Oilers like they did Leafs. If you are a true fan of the game you would support Canadian hockey.
It's devastating for teams who are this deep in the playoffs to lose. It's sooo much easier to be out of the playoffs judging others, it's incredible difficult to do what Oilers did this deep in. Good on them for getting this far and it absolutely is painful to lose.
Let's show them humility and pride as I am 100% they would do the same if the roles were reversed, don't recall Oiler fans or media trashing Van.
Seriously?!.... Lol! Man you've been under a rock.

Been watching the game, it's really scrappy, intense, a bit like the AHL games. Another goal for Lekker, he's really shining, shame he doesn't get more minutes but I get it. His shot is certainly AHL level, I think he can score 10+ next year.
Big game 6 coming up.
Wouldn't it be insane if he scores in a game 7...
His shot is already higher NHL level... Has been since his draft year.

Johnny Lekks with a goal in Djurgarden’s pivotal game 5.
Leading 5-2 now and looking to force game 6!
Good name! Probably called Lekksy by his peers?

tbh it’s been so long since things went right for us consistently that everyone is skeptical
like we don’t even have faith that we can consistently draft the right player with a top pick because of the JB era…virt, OJ, podz
Leave Podz out of it... Just like Högs, he'll turn it around and slap that word 'bust' out your mouth.

His team got knocked out by Filip Johansson in the first round.
Lucas put up some great numbers this year that were comparable to other team's first round picks.
Watching him, he looks like a very good poacher who tips pucks in, and pounces on turnovers very well. So I always have a tough time projecting those types of players.
Thanks for the update! Is there any word from the brass as to whether he'll be coming to north America next season?
-
What's going on with Lucas Forsell? Is he still playing or is his team out of the playoffs? Do you think he'll come over to play in Abbotsford next season?

Benning shouldn't have been put in that position.
They asked a car mechanic to run the entire dealership instead of just the parts and service department.
No, the mechanic fired or alienated the dealership employees because they weren't grease monkeys like him.... Except Weisbrou of course.

Been calling for this for awhile. We have too much talent to have our powerplay let us down so often. They need a new voice because clearly King was not able to get them to a level of consistency.
New hire coming or just have current coaches take that role you think?Gonchar to take over pp?

Mental health break... Seriously. He feeds off negativity... Badge of honour for him. Just a waste of my day going there, trying not to react to his stick. I don't even listen to that station anymore. All quality and integrity gone.... Especially when he has his own show there. I just shake my head and move on.
