Samk Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Vancouver Canucks Second round pick - 57th overall Position: RW Birthdate: May 22, 1992 From: Amqui, QC; Canada Height: 6' 1" Weight: 172lbs The Canucks selected 6-foot-1, 195-pound center Alexandre Mallet with their second-round pick (57th overall). Mallet had gone undrafted the previous two years but had a breakout offensive season for Rimouski of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. He went from 19 points (10-9-19) two years ago to 34-47-81 last season and 132 PIMs. He’s been called a tough and gritty forward, who’s not afraid to drop the gloves, and with a style similar to Detroit’s Tomas Holmstrom. Mallet projects as a third liner who is good at both ends of the rink. - The Province Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucks top scorer Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 81 points in 68 games wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makaramel MacKhiato Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Meh it's ok, I was hoping we would take Damon Severson. You can't go wrong with a Kelowna rocket Defenceman (others: Weber, Keith, Myers, Schenn), and it was said that he could go in the 1st/2nd round, so Canucks getting him then would've been a steal. I thought we had to get more defensive prospects then anything. I wasn't happy with MG this draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephanie tanner Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 81 points, 8 fights this year, seems to play pretty gritty and he won most of his fights from the ones I watched. good pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzle Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 An overager point producer as a 2nd round pick. 3rd line ceiling. I wouldn't say this is a terrible pick but wow, has the quality of prospects sunk that low already, even for a 2nd rounder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HockeyHobo73 Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Mallet seems like a likeable guy from his interview... He looked so damn shocked lol... I think he was more shocked than any of us here... I can't wait to see him punch someone while he is wearing a Canucks jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 September prospect tournament roster: Jensen - Schroeder - Grenier Mallet - Gaunce - Labate Rodin - Friesen - Myron Anthony - Beattie - Archibald Connauton - Sauve Hutton - Corrado McNally -Polasek Cannata Honzik Looks solid. Maybe this year we can take Edmonton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dasein Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 September prospect tournament roster: Jensen - Schroeder - Grenier Mallet - Gaunce - Labate Rodin - Friesen - Myron Anthony - Beattie - Archibald Connauton - Sauve Hutton - Corrado McNally -Polasek Cannata Honzik Looks solid. Maybe this year we can take Edmonton. The five bolded players will attend a US college program so they will not be attending prospects tournament or training camp. Also, Grenier is in Austria, so not sure if he'll be attending. Sweatt - Schroeder - Jensen Mallet - Gaunce - Rodin Archibald - Friesen - Anthony Rai - Schneider - Tochkin (or FAs or Camp Invites - anywhere on this line) Connauton - Corrado Sauve - Polasek Andersson - FAs or Camp Invite Cannata Honzik FAs or Camp Invite That's what I think our lineup will look like. We can definitely take Edmonton on this year IMO - our center depth is finally looking decent with Schroeder, Gaunce and Friesen down the middle. Also, I wonder if Kassian will attend - probably not - same with Tanev. And what is the eligibility for playing in this tournament? Schroeder and Sweatt have played in a couple now, I think ...

Ossi Vaananen Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I believe our college players can attend if they pay their own way, I remember that was the case with Pat White a few years back. They can't accept payment or room/board, it will void their scholarship. Ya, you're right, i'm not sure if some of our AHL experienced players will be allowed to attend... So we might have a thin camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedman Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Labate...now that's a laugh And Rodin will be lucky to make the NHL I believe Labate is a pretty good find in the 4th round. He had a good 1st year at university of Wisconsin. Wouldn't be surprised if he's playing wjc hockey for USA this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edler's Mind Tricks Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Labate...now that's a laugh And Rodin will be lucky to make the NHL Really? Why? Because he is going to college? I would be willing to bet that he will be an everyday NHL'er at the very least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
