Bobby_Lu1ngo Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I was looking at the schedules for the teams around us. Detroit 6 of 12 vs playoff teams Arizona 6 of 12 Dallas 6 of 12 New Jersey 4 of 12 Carolina 6 of 12 Vancouver 8 of 12 I would say we have the toughest schedule of everyone. I never thought it would be possible but we realistically could finish 29th. We play Arizona once which could be all the difference. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember last year being very happy that Columbus won their last game of the year to put us lower in the standings at 28th in the league... but I guess better odds are better odds.

Hope for the best. The way I look at it is we'll likely drop 3-4 spots depending on how the Vegas thing works. No way we pick 1 2 or 3. So odds aside the lower we finish the higher our pick will be. We finish 29th. We pick 5th. I'll be okay with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We obviously want pick #1 or #2 (for the GMs sake they might prefer pick #2 so there is no second guessing) but from pick #3-#6 its a crap shoot in determining who the best players out of those ranked in that range are.

I just cant imagine this tbing being turned around by next year. It is probably going to be another growing pains year. Sedins declining a little more but still sharing similar minutes to Horvat and Baertschi line while 3rd and 4th lines kids are working out the kinks. When is the next strong draft at the top end.

Just to discuss further the players if be happy with (in no particular order) Patrick Hischier Vilardi Mittlestadt Liljegren So if we finish second at least 1 player I want will be there at 5. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts exactly, Leaving the draft with one of those 5 will be a successful draft for the canucks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Kerr Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 ^^^ to further your guys point. Everyone wants the same players for 1/2 spot... So let's say we pick anywhere from 3-7 what is everyone's top 3-4 forwards and top 2d they would like to draft. With my extensive 5mins of research I'll start with in order F- Mittelstadt, Vilardi, Tippet (our rw is getting crowded but who doesn't like a pwf game) and Rassumsen is huuuge D- Makar, Valimaki, Liljegrin all possible plus some big boys if we wanted more DFD which I don't think Benning does.

Say if we finish in the 5th or 6th spot next year's draft. Would our 1st plus Tanev be a good idea to move up and select Dahlin, Svechnikov, or Wise?
