Gstank29 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 So its about that time where we start talking about the 2015 draft class. I was wondering who you guys think are some prospects that are unheard of or under appreciated that we might see rise up draft boards during the season. Also meant to discuss what players we should target. FYI WE ALL KNOW YOU GUYS WANT MCDAVID AND EICHEL, BUT LETS BE REALISTIC HERE AND SAY THAT THEY ARENT GOING TO BE ON THE BOARD WHEN WE PICK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManUtd Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Barzal People may seem to think you're a troll but this is right on. Barzal looks like he'll end up going somewhere around 8-12, which should be right around where the Canucks pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucks1219 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I have a feeling that it's going to be wide open, without a ton of consensus, after the first 8 or so picks. With guys like Barzal, Merkley, Speers, Konecny, and Marner, there will be a lot of super-skilled but small(er) forwards available should we end up with an early-teen pick. EDIT: I knew Speers was 5'11 but he's also 185 lbs., so he's on the smaller side but he's not actually "small". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87Crosby Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I'm thinking we pick around 6-9 or 14-16 and it all depends on if Benning sees the team as a contender or a pretender. We could potentially be sellers, and trade away the extra Vets, or we could trade picks and prospects for one more kick at the can. My picks might be impossible, but I would love to get Hanifin and of he is gone I'd go with Mathew Barzal and Dylan Strome. Dream Situation if we are below .500: At the deadline: Canucks 1st Round Pick Montreal Montreal Burrows 3rd rounder Canucks Miller 2nd Round Pick Sharks Niemi 1st round Pick Dylan Demelo At the draft: Canucks: Kane 4th Oilers: Higgins Bonino Markstrom Gaunce 2nd Picks: Vancouver 1st: 4-6th Overall: Hanifin/Dylan Strome San Jose 24th Overall: Filip Ahl/Jesper Lindgren (Swedish Pick!)/BPA Montreal 28th Overall: Ryan Gropp/ BPA Lineup: Sedin-Sedin-Vrbata Kane-FreeAgent/Vey(If Ready)-Jensen/Kassian Shinkaruk-Horvat-Jensen/Kassian Mathias-Richardson-Dorsett Hamhuis-Bieksa Edler-Ehroff/(UFA)/ Hanifin(If Drafted)/Stanton-Tanev Lack Markstrom or we could just sell the farm grab some more playoff preformers, bribe Bettman and win the Cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger-Hearted Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I was thinking about this the other day. The Canucks could still improve on last season and STILL miss the playoffs. With the new draft lottery taking place next year, can you imagine if the Canucks beat out the Sabres, their expansion cousins and the favourites to win the draft lottery? It would be sweet karma after losing to Buffalo in the infamous wheel spin of 1970 and the Sabres got to pick future Hall of Famer, Gilbert Perrault. You just never know.
