  1. Pops gone. Maybe Strome? Is his skating that bad?
  2. I just need some french toast and maple syrup.
  3. Benning said they would go BPA for the next few rounds at least and then maybe fill out the D if they needed in the final rounds
  4. I read some info a few weeks ago that said he was streaky.. Started the year slow and ended slow
  5. Canucks Army https://canucksarmy.com/2017/06/01/nation-network-2017-prospect-profile-37-kole-lind/ We’re going back to the Western Hockey League for the Nations Network’s 37th ranked prospect. That prospect is Kole Lind of the Kelowna Rockets. Lind started the season as a projected third round pick but has been so impressive that his draft stock has risen to the point where he could be selected late in the first round. Known for his anticipation and play making abilities, Lind had a noteworthy draft minus one season in 2015-16 with 41 points in 70 games. He exploded offensively this season, showcasing exactly what makes him such a good player. Let’s take a closer look at the right winger! Bio: Age: 18-years-old, 1998-10-16 Birthplace: Shaunavan, SK, CAN Position: RW Handedness: R Height: 6’1″ Weight: 176 lbs Draft Year Team: Kelowna Rockets – WHL Future Considerations: A smart and skilled but not overly dynamic offensive forward…a slippery skater who is able to hang onto the puck for lengthy periods thanks to his good awareness of where pressure is coming from…is very agile and accelerates quickly, enabling him to get a bit of room from opponents…has good puck skill using his hand position and speed to bring pucks in tight to his body, protecting it…can run himself out of space by trying to hold onto the puck and make that extra move…very heads up passer who leads his man perfectly…makes gorgeous saucer passes…is a playmaker but doesn’t mind taking shots, although his release is a little slow…his speed and smarts allowed him to find a lot of openings to get chances…defensively he uses his stick to close off options…not consistently physical but has shown some fire in his belly after the whistle, getting in faces and causing commotion…strong awareness and smarts should help with his potential to contribute at the pro level
  6. Calgary probably takes the biggest guy available. Hague?
  7. Not every player can fix their skating like Bo Horvat.
  8. Petterson thread may just rival the Virtanen thread.
