Quantum Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Note - I don't count Tryamkin or Goldobin as "prospects" because they've had long stretches in the NHL. Going to make my list soley based around players who have yet to make their NHL debut in a meaningful way. 1 - Pettersson 2 - Demko 3 - Juolevi 4 - Gaudette 5 - Lind 6 - Dahlen 7 - Gadjovich 8 - McEneny (he's going to be an NHLer next year, that's my gut feeling. Yes, he played 1 NHL game last year). 9 - MacEwen 10 - Carcone Honorable Mentions - Lockwood (injury history scares me), Chatfield (stellar preseason, okay AHL season, I believe he'll get leaps and bounds better next year), Brisebois (he's overhyped internally), Palmu (size could be an issue but he's built like a tank, hard not to root for him, excited to see him in the AHL next year), Brassard (I have confidence he can develop into something, even as a 7th rounder) and DiPetrio (Utica is his when Demko makes the leap to the NHL, obviously). Things to note -- Woah, would this list have been hard to make a few years ago. Prospect pool has grown tremendously. Gotta recognize that. Benning's killing it here. Not a ton of great defensive prospects in the pipelines. Definitely a system need. Canucks can hopefully add to that pool in the next draft or two. I have faith. Same with goaltending. Demko & DiPetrio are it. Canucks should look to grab a goalie, especially with Demko looking NHL bound as soon as next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest will be on the farm learning to play the right way, on a farm team that struggles to be average. I wouldnt call a farm team that got a point in 14 or however many games straight average.

Utica is doing very well this year - above .600 and Canucks have yanked their top players away on numerous occasions and traded away their top Dman but Cull is doing an amazing job with that team.

Do you actually follow them or just like to assume they are not doing well? I'm assuming he meant next year. Will need to wait until camp to have a better idea (particularly with EP and Gaudette). Demko we'll know once the off season is done. If Markstrom and Nilsson are still around I'd put my betting money on him starting the season in Utica as it sounds like progressing very nicely but still developing little blips out of his game.

I'm sorry, but why do you feel the need to dispute posts months after they were posted? I always see you dregg up other people's old posts just so you can toot your own horn stating that they were 'obviously' wrong. It irks me to no end when people resurrect old posts just so they can boast at a time when the context is more convenient to bring it up...That's not an argument or rebuttal. That's lazily picking your battles so you can look better by design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you actually follow them or just like to assume they are not doing well? Was saying those 3 have the best chance to make the team next season. As a fan I hope this happens. Yes Cull (Demko) has been doing a great job getting this team on a roll ( credit due). Before this stretch its been a long time since this team was good.

You can argue to substitute different guys into different slots on the list and add a few from the honourable mentions into the top 10 but no matter what....the future looks damn brighter than I can ever remember, and my memory goes back to guys like Tony Tanti (drafted by Chicago, I know) and Petri Skriko. And never have we had such an incredibly deep looking prospect pool... 1. Elias Pettersson 2. Olli Juoveli 3. Thatcher Demko 4. Jonathan Dahlen 5. Adam Gaudette 6. Kole Lind 7. Jonah Gadjovich 8. William Lockwood 9. Michael DiPietro 10. Jalen Chatfield honorable mentions to Guillaume Brisebois, Petrus Palmu and Zack MacEwan Trevor will build this team the proper and right way. F@$% the naysayers and Pooplords who crap on this management group. IN BENNING WE TRUST, WE ARE BUILDING THROUGH THE DRAFT!! I too go back to those days, the only other time that I have felt 1/2 of this optimism was when we drafted Trevor, Nedved, Slegr, and Bure in a short time frame. Trevor and Bure became GREAT players, Nedved was serviceable, and Slegr, meh, but there was some excitement there. Then the Sedins, they took some time, but now it seems like Benning is finding multiple somethings worthwhile out of every draft... I love Pat Quinn and Brian Burke for bringing self respect to this franchise, we were lost before them in a sea of despair, these last few years of losing is nothing compared to the dark days before Quinn. And yet Quinn did not revamp the draft system, the building block of the franchise. I get upset at various media outlets in this city. Some are mean hearted and I hate them for it. TSN DonkeyHats and Canuck"Nation" wannabee General "Fan"agers poop on GMJB, degrading themselves even to the point of giving airtime to an impersonator mocking the way Benning talks and inferring that he is a dimwit, think about that for a second, they mock a good man who has revamped our drafting system, and who was given a team of NTC's, NMC's and who uncovers young and upcoming talent for us and they "extol" the "virtue's" of Gilman who was part and parcel of giving away those contracts and who did F@#$% all to draft anything much other than Bo Horvat then he gets to come on TSN and second guess the new management every week. Thanks TSN. I like this team, I like our direction, I like where we are heading, I like the players we put on our team. We only have players with character on our team. There are no prima-donna's, no whiners, no me-first's that stick out. I do not necessarily want Gagner, Dowd, MDZ, on this team but the kids NEED a buffer. I definitely do not want the kids to be gifted a spot and I do not want the kids to be over-overwhelmed. How they developed Virtanen is awesome, they are dedicated to bringing the kids in properly. anyways..

Noble 6 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Updated list now that the season is over: 1) Pettersson: 1st line, offensive forward 2) Demko: 1A starter 3) Juolevi: Top-4, 2 way defenseman 4) Dahlen: Middle-6, offensive winger 5) Gaudette: Middle-6, 2 way center 6) Lind: Middle-6, offensive winger 7) Gadjovich: Bottom-6, physical forward 8) Brisebois: Top-6, defensive defenseman 9) Jasek: Bottom-6, energy winger 10) DiPietro: 2A backup HM: Brassard, Lockwood, Palmu Our 2018 1st rounder should be able to slot in behind Pettersson and ahead of Demko. Our 2nd rounder could be pretty much anywhere behind Juolevi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy how deep our prospect pool is when you have good prospects like Lockwood, Palmu, MacEwen, Chatfield, Brassard and Rathbone not even in the top ten. If you looks at our 23 and under players in the NHL the future doesn't look so bright Bo Boeser Virtanen Goldy Leipsic But then you add in the guys that are close to making the jump to the NHL Pettersson Juolevi Dahlen Demko Gaudette MacEwen Sautner McEneny Motte and you really get excited! But wait, theres more! You add in good prospects that need more time Lind Gadjovich Brisebois Chatfield Rathbone Palmu Jasek DiPietro Lockwood Brassard And you just cant help but Heres hoping we get a few good quality defensemen this draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
