Canucks Curse Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I would love to see what JB could do in a strong draft year with 5-6 picks in the top 80. we are now 4th worst team in the NHL and we are dropping - I mean, I expect nashville and NYI to surpass us. It will be between VAN, CAR and ARZ for Nolan Patrick. Maybe CBJ will also drop off. Aside from Nolan and Timothy, I am interested in: Mittlesteadt Vilardi Rasmussen Foote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Off_The_Schneid! Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 What's the hype on Patrick? is he putting up decent numbers? Anybody following him because it's looking like a top 5 pick again this year. How does vegas factor in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had 4-5-9 in 6 games before getting hurt. Put up 41-61-102 in 72 games last season for Brandon, good for 5th overall. Younger than the 4 guys ahead of him. Already has good size 6 ft 3in 195 lbs. Would be curious to see if we won the lottery and drafted him if he'd slide right into this lineup right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not the greatest skater though, and doesnt have the flash like the high picks in the recent years. To be honest he reminds me a lot of RNH.

Sorry, I don't think you know what your talking about? Correct me if I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.Am.Ironman Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Granlund's value is probably a 3rd/4th round pick at this point and I'm not sure he is even worth protecting. Hansen's value is likely a 2nd + 4th/5th.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many around, but I could see us taking CASEY MITTELSTADT Officially on the Mittlestadt train.. This guy right now is ranked just in the top 10. He's going to be a top 3 pick. Looks more exciting than Patrick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boudrias Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Doesn't Vegas get the #1 pick? I do expect Van will be drafting top spots for a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LV will have the same odds as the team finishing 3rd last in the NHL, like us last year. 11.5% chance of winning the top pick. Basically 2 teams will have the same number of odds winning the lottery. And just like us last year, the lowest they can draft is 6th overall, the highest being 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides both playing in dub and both playing C, there playing styles are completely different. Patrick is a shoot first player who drives the net more than not, while RNH is a passer who uses his vision to make plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derp... Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Middelstadt has been my top forward pick for the Nucks since the summer, and all he does now is lead the USHL in scoring. His hands are elite. This is the guy you want centering Boeser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noble 6 Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Mittlestadt looks like a bigger, slightly less electric version of Keller. I was very high on Keller last year and wouldn't have minded taking him 5th overall, but we have to see how the rest of the season plays out before I say the same about Mittlestadt. If he can increase his agility even more than what it is right now, he'll likely be on the same level as Keller for me. I've heard a lot of good things about Valardi, Does anyone have a style comparison for him? Not necessarily a ceiling, just how he plays the game.

funkyfresh Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 If he's available, I would pick Nick Suzuki with the 2nd round pick. Solid player all around; he can defend, forecheck, backcheck, pass, and shoot. Also one of the youngest players in the draft with an August birthday. The numbers are good too: .60 ppg (38 points in 63 games) as a 16 year old and 1.22 ppg (22 in 18 games) this year. He's putting up almost 4.5 shots/game. Safe pick with lots of potential to exceed expectations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
