CANUCK-EXPRESS Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 God dammit Benning. WHY VIRTANEN? Terrible move.Watch him prove you wrong to shut your mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey Stache Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Holy freakin %@!#!!! Seriously, what is wrong with some of the posters here?!?!?! "What a bad day for the Canucks" "BUST!" "ANYONE BUT VIRTANEN NOOOOOO!!!" Just some of the idiotic posts not 5 minutes after the newest Canuck has been picked. Clearly none of you are true Canuck fans. Virtanen is exactly what the Canucks need...crazy speed, with an excellent shot and likes to play physical. Is there anyone remotely like that in the organization???? Give your heads a shake and wake up. The kid is 18 years old and nobody knows how any of these young men will turn out including those that were chosen before him. Welcome to the Canucks, Jake. Well done Benning. What a great day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CynideSnipe Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Great pick for us, now get us a goalie @ 24th Why the hell do we need a goalie? We already have Lack and Markstrom, as well as Eriksson. Good thing you're not the GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redhdlois Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Love the pick but what's with the team letting him have 14 at the draft? Not happy!!! You're joking I hope and all the other players got 14 too !! OMG !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kass Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I'm really hoping they didn't pick him just because he's from here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueShark Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Don't know enough about the draft picks (outside of the top 4) to have any strong opinion on this. Hometown kid. Hope he does well. Welcome to Hell Vancouver, Jake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HerrDrFunk Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I'm officially sold on Benning's skills as a GM. He's made the best moves with what was available. Plus, how hard do you think this kid will play for the team that he's grown up cheering for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiggs50 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 You were all in for Ehlers. He didn't pick him either.. I was for anyone but Nylander. I like Virtanen. Good safe pick imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Benning will be fired next year. Hope he enjoys screwing around for a few months. I just cant believe this. Another injured BC player. We just got rid of garrison. Seems like the canucks and linden just wanted any BC born player. Doesn't matter if hes good or not. We don't need another Linden to get us to game 7 of the Stanley cup and lose. We need someone to win us a cup. Go away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananaMash Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I wasn't a fan of Virtanen, but seeing that excitement on his face was awesome. You know he'll work his ass off to make an impact here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucksnihilist Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 lucic was drafted in the 2nd round. this kid could be a great player - give him a chance. no other pick at this level has much more of a chance of success - roll the dice and hope he works out! he could be awesome!

The Nuckist Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I really did not want jake just cause I had the idea that Dalcolle would fall to us so set in my head. as soon as the islanders made their pick I had a complete turn around. Did not think i would be this stoked to draft him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
