Phat Fingers Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 I want Krebs. IMO he would be fantastic on LW with EP40 and Brock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds painful. Is that anything like a kidney stone? I hope he's ok. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is clearly the best D man in the draft, after Byram. I’d trade up to get him. This guy is a brilliant player, and he’s big. He is my clear number three after Hughes, and Byram. Based on any available highlights, Broberg looks like an absolute stud. His skating is fantastic. But I keep hearing he's been pretty underwhelming outside of any major tournaments, so the highlights are really just that... highlights... If he played like that fulltime, he'd be a top 5 draft pick. I still personally like him as a potential target, I'd just like to hear from people that have seen him play in everyday scenarios.

In age appropriate tournaments Broberg dominates his age group. His league play is against men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appleboy Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Broberg has he size and is an elite skater. He doesn't turn 18 until June and has played in a men's league. Very young and very skilled. He could be the gem in the draft. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know where the concerns about this guy's hockey IQ come from. Maybe playing against men he can't accomplish as much with that amazing skating as he does against juniors? But he seems to read the play well enough and find his team mates, so it's not like he's going full Jake out there (just kidding). In a draft that's supposed to be all about the USNDP, I wouldn't be shocked to see Byram, Broberg and Soderstrom all sneak into the top 10.

Karlson does lead defensemen in playoff scoring - and had 18 pts in 19 playoff games in 16/17. It's true that team's need some size, physicality, even intimidation (if possible) on their blueline - but at the same time you can't pass on a bpa (if he were that) simply because they're not ideal size. You simply need to add that by other means if you use this pick on a skilled blueliner. Maybe Seider or Broberg turn out to be the bpa - ideally the RHD though. The bigger bluelines though - tend to look pretty good in the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could go either way. Its an overall garbage offer. Would you take that bag’o’crap for Pettersson? You want the 1st overall, start with the 10th pick, add Bo or Brock, then NJ will maybe listen to what else you can add to that. Man do i I hate seeing Canuck fan trade proposals.

appleboy Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Trying to move up would take Boeser or Horvat. So why bother. There is some solid players in the mid round. What they need to do is try to land another mid round first. Or a couple of seconds. One of Krebs , Broberg , Boldy , Harley , Caufield...…… These are not chopped liver and one of them might be exactly what we need. Soderstrom is another one. I doubt Benning will do it but I would love to see Sutter and Tanev moved for extra picks. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maketherightmove Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I think it's more likely that the Canucks move up to 5 to grab Byram if he hasn't been taken at that point. I think they realistically could get 5OA for 10OA and a couple of reasonable pieces, especially if they agree to take on one of LA's horrible contracts.

nergish Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 (edited) Unless Turcotte or Boldy are still available, I think the Nucks might be better off going with a defenceman. I'm just so intrigued by Ville Heinola and Philip Broberg. They may both seem like off-the-board picks at #10, but I think they have to be considered... Heinola has seemingly limitless potential. Nothing he does jumps out at you, other than real smooth skating and high IQ... but he has the makings of something special if he can continue to evolve. He surpassed Heiskanen's point totals in the same league, and doesn't appear to have any glaring weaknesses. Huge fan of what I've seen. Broberg's highlights are unreal. His skating is sublime, and he's tall with a long stick. I keep hearing that he goes quiet for long stretches of play, but his highlights are pretty impressive. Maybe a bit more of a boom or bust, but I like the idea of the Nucks finally becoming a team with a mobile defence. Call me crazy, I just like what those guys bring from their position over Krebs, Caufield, maybe even Dach... I would have no real issue taking Soderstrom, but I don't think the 'safe pick' is what this team needs. The fanbase can't handle another Juolevi situation (even though I haven't given up on the kid myself). Edited April 16, 2019 by nergish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
