Glug Datt Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 14 - Nylander or Larkin 15 - Konecny or Merkley 16 - Joulevi or Tkachuk 17 - Glass or Vilardi or Liljegren 18 - Bouchard or Dobson I was not impressed with Virt.. stoked about OJ.. Boes, Petey & Hughes were nowhere near my radar.. well Hughes a little bit I guess, but I still wanted Bouchard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(We both would have missed out on Petey haha) 2015 was a weird one because we had a lower pick at 23. I can remember that I was not happy because I had no idea who Boeser even was. If I had been GM that year I believe we would have ended up with Oliver Kylington (sorry guys!) Can any of you remember who you were hoping to pick at #23 that year?

Tomatoes11 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 2014 was hoping draisatl or dall Colle dropped to us. Otherwise Nylander or at least Ehlers 2015 I guess kylington but I didn’t really follow this draft 2016 Tkachuk Dubois 2017 trade down for both EP and Liljegren but I was okay with a lot including glass, villardi, and middlestat 2018 Dobson or Walmart ( still don’t know how islanders got both) let’s hope they don’t both pan out 2019 byram, broberg, or Söderström preferably. Okay with anyone though. Similar to 2017. Crapshoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly I didn't know about Pastrnak 2015: Konecny- Didnt know as much about Brock at the time 2016: Tkachuk- Skilled gritty in your face LW, yes please no brainer in this draft for me anyway 2017: Glass/Vilardi or EP- 1 for size other for his skill 2018: Boqvist/Bouchard- wanted a RHD to compliment the OJ draft selection and was worried about durability & lack of a shot with Hughes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBackup Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I wanted defense. Wasn’t too partial on who. I remember being upset with the Boeser pick only because I thought he looked like another prospect displeased to go to us, and that wasn’t a good sign for someone going the college route. Of course that’s before I knew just how laid back Boeser was in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hindustan Smyl Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 My boiii was Brandon Carlo. 2015 - Brandon Carlo 2016 - Matthew Tkachuk (Dubois was my first choice) 2017 - Cody Glass (Miro Heiskanen was my first choice) 2018 - Noah Dobson (Quinn Hughes was my first choice, but I didn’t think he’d drop that far in a million years).

MoneypuckOverlord Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 we had a poll if someone can find it and bump it it be great, it was Canucks.com members voting I recall Canucks.com wanted Olivery Kylton first, and then it was Jeremy Roy. Brock Boeser had a Cody Hodgson but a winger vibe so he wasn't popular. man were we wrong. Canucks hfboards members too. You clowns cannot out draft the management.

canuckpuckluck1 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 My picks and I seem to have a few threads that I created around this. I usually did one right after the draft each year. I checked them and these were the picks I wanted at the time 2014- Ehlers and Demko 2015 - Rasmus Anderssen 2016 - Olli Julevi 2017 - Cody Glass 2018 - Hughes I think Benning and Brackett have done a much better job than I would have. When you go deeper into the rounds of each draft, its where they really show how its done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nave Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 2014: Dal Colle or Ehlers 2015: Boeser 2016: Tkachuk, but I was happy with Juolevi. 2017: Mittelstadt. Started to warm up to Pettersson, but I had no idea he'd be this good. 2018: Hughes or Bouchard. When we made the pick, I was over the moon, which kinda told me who I wanted more.

Barnorth Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I remember actually wanting Carlo. 1st on my list though was Paul Bittner. Big winger coming out of the Portland system. What could go wrong right?.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck73_3 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Kylington, Roy, and Carlo didn't know as much about Boeser but was very impressed when they showed clips of him. Truthfully he wasn't on my radar then other than being available near or spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so wrong in 2015 and boy am i glad I’m not a nuck scout. Saw tkachuk play in Ottawa vs London and his line (with Dvorak and Marner) were electric. Tkahcuk was the driver and I think they all got like 5 points of just pure ridiculous skillful goals. Was very happy we picked up OJ, and am still very happy about that pick. I thought Sergachev filled a better need, but now that we have Hughes, OJ was in hindsight the better organizational pick In Benning I Trust!

I’ll include 2014 since I remember that year as well. I really wanted Sam Reinhart. Badly. I thought he was the real deal and I had him pegged as being a viable heir apparent to the twins. I was willing to trade Horvat + our 6th for Reinhart. Ugggh. 2013: I didn’t have anyone particular in mind, but I remember being very upset over the Schneider trade. 2012: Didn’t care. I was thinking about quitting the NHL as a fan and was seriously contemplating doing something else. I was getting ready to say good bye to the NHL. At the time, I didn’t realize that I was actually getting ready to say “good bye” to almost every other aspect of my life *except* for the NHL.....and that my passion for the Canucks and hockey would intensify even more in a few short years (after the Seahawks super bowl victory). 2011: was too depressed to care about hockey or the draft.

189lb enforcers? Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Boeser was as safe a bet as there was at the time. Button, McGuire, etc. were all over that one. I liked the pick too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
250Integra Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I predicted we would draft Boeser or Juulsen (true story). I even posted it on the Canucks Facebook page contest a few hours prior to the draft. Should've won a signed Boeser puck but they gave it some other guy instead, even though I was the first one to mention it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
