All those in the last few years, and more additions coming tomorrow. Of course, not all will be top talent in the NHL, but if our top 1st round picks pan out, this team is in very good hands in the future.

Also, I feel Jim Benning will definitely be making more trades tomorrow, especially since we have so many picks. And with all that cap space, free agency can't come soon enough.

Very happy with the future of this team so far.

It's too early. There's still a few decent prospects in the draft that the Canucks could potential draft. Snag a few, and will look even better. It'd be fun, if the canucks could somehow manage to get, Barbashev, Cornel, and Karlsson.

That's a very average group of talent compared to others it'll take some more years of good drafting to not be a middle of the pack team

Average is better than bottom of the league. That being said, quit underrating our prospects.

I think we're around the 11-15 range. We have the depth that alot of other teams don't have. Winnipeg, Arizona, Pittsburgh are in that type of group, the middle group. They don't have a 1st line talent but top 6 talents and top 4 defence talents. Lazar, Ceci, Bennett, Pouliot, Morriessy, Petan.

We need that over the top talent, Shinkaruk, Virtanen, Jensen, Horvat, McCann are all projected 1st/2nd/ line borderline players.

Quit overrating our prospects. There is nobody in the system that has superstar potential w/ the exception of Shinkaruk and MAYBE, MAYBE Horvat.

I'm not overrating anyone. Just want people like you to start using your brain and quit throwing our players under the damn bus. You have no clue how they will turn out, so they could very well have superstar potential and we don't even know it yet. Either way, just let them grow and develop. Why is that so hard to understand?

That is probably one of the better forward prospect groups in the league, a lot of these guys have what it take to be good players in the league IMO... need to add a few defenseman and hopefully they do so tomorrow (Pettersson or McKeown).
