Hoosierdaddy Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Agreed, I see Lemieux and Sanheim as great targets, for possible late first pick if we aquire one Think neither makes it to the 2nd round? I like the shrewd moves when a GM can move up in the 2nd round or later without making a 'blockbuster' to get the guy he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeddingCrashers Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Just go BPA according to bob mckenzie haha! This is the interesting pick I think! Personally I'd like to see Sanhiem or Demko! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absent Canuck Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Demko would be a steal at 36 I believe. I hope he is still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeddingCrashers Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Is Anthony DeAngelo a possibility at 36th? His attitude is just as insane as his point totals I know but if all the guys mentioned are gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between the attitude issues and refusal to play defense as a defenseman, I would have deangelo on the do-not-draft list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TGokou Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I remember reading some statistics on whether draft day fallers do better than draft day risers (Ie. a draft day faller is someone ranked at 20 falling to 40 and vice versa). You would think that draft day fallers have more overall skill and therefore do better than the draft day riser but in fact, draft day risers tend to have better NHL careers on average. Sanheim and Lemieux could be potential risers and I see DeAngelo as a faller...avoid at all costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes sense though, the risers are on the upside and really developing, whereas the fallers may have peaked already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogbyte Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Lemieux, Sanheim, or if Scherbak/Schmaltz/Bleackley fall. Not a big fan of drafting a goalie. We've got way bigger fish to fry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got way bigger fish to fry. an elite goalie can give any team a chance to win. Van has 3 goalies competing for time, but they are all the same age (roughly) with no one in the system to come up after them. Demko would be a great addition to the prospect pool, and if you're starting a rebuild, BPA goes a long way over positional needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be okay with Demko at 36.. although I don't see him being there at that spot. We are severely lacking in goal prospects in the 18-23 year old range. Dangerous for the future. Perhaps target one of Daniel Vlader, Maxim Tretiak or MacKenzie Blackwood in 2015? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brynas has had some real success with developing goaltenders and Vancouver clearly agrees.. Anders Linback, Jacob Markstom, Eddie Lack, Joacim Eriksson, Niklas Svedberg, Oscar Dansk....
