nux_win Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I don't think that Pedan has a huge upside (but I suppose we won't really know until we see more of him) but I do think that he's ready to kick some ***. And I think we need some of that. GCG! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyoung Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Molino. Anyone who has stepped foot in the nhl (regardless of how many games) is better than the rest. Big toss up imo afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48MPHSlapShot Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Molino yet again. Chatfield and Gunnarsson in the mix as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beary Sweet Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Went with Pedan again. He's showed his physical game is NHL ready and it's the little things he has to work on like taking less penalties and maintaining his defensive consistency. Nice seeing him chip in from time to time with Utica but it would be much better if he can bring on a daily basis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Going for Labate, due to the likelihood of him actually making the NHL over the chances of anyone else on this list. Molino is the only one who could challenge him in that category, though nether have very high ceilings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruilin96 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 We are officially down to Gillis level prospects. Considering it took to Pick #17, it goes to show how terrible Gillis drafting was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering it took to Pick #17, it goes to show how terrible Gillis drafting was The Canuck prospect pool is a lot better than it has been for a long time. To some extent that is a reflection of some pretty low finishes in the last 4 years, whereas as Gillis usually has low picks and was trading picks to try to add value for a Cup run. And, in fairness to Gillis, I think we passed the Gillis point a while back. Throughout the Gillis regime there were usually two or three good prospects in the system. At various times in the Gillis regime the following guys (acquired by Gillis) were near the top of the prospect list. In the early years Gillis picked Hodgson, signed Tanev as a college free agent, picked Connauton, Jordan Schroeder, and Anton Rodin. Later he picked Gaunce, Hutton, Jensen, Horvat and Shinkaruk. Not all of those guys turned out great, but they all looked pretty good as prospects and would, in my view, all fit in the top 10 of the current list. Here is a randomly selected list of the top prospects at the time Gillis was fired: 1) Bo Horvat 2) Hunter Shinkaruk 3) Ben Hutton 4) Frankie Corrado 5) Brendan Gaunce 6) Jordan Schroeder 7) Nick Jensen 8) Jordan Subban 9) Anton Rodin 10) Joe Labate The current top 10 is a lot better, but this is not a terrible list -- certainly better than the 11 through 20 spots on the current list.
