      But on top of that, we are the team with the best odds to win the 3rd overall pick.

      Guys for this to happen, Edmonton, and Toronto don't win any spot. That is against the odds

  2. McCann + for a mid 1st round pick? :D

      I'd like to start developing our most recent picks to see what we have before shipping them off so soon.

       

      Edler for top 15 + or stand pat

      meh, Benning also mentioned both Demko and Markstrom as part of the next core group.

      ^ well they could be, they're still here at least

  3. If only the 2016 draft was like 2015 where the consolation prize for not winning 1st, was another franchise center at #2. 

    1. Odd.

      Odd.

      or a potential franchise d-man at 3rd/4th overall

    2. Ossi Vaananen

      Ossi Vaananen

      This draft is deeper. 1st 3 spots are all at least Eichel level if not better. Beyond those 3 it's deep until around 14, with the top 6-10 being top 6 forwards or top 4 D. 

  4. Lets say we get unlucky with the lottery and end up with 5th or 6th overall. Would you trade down to idk 9th or 10th overall to draft Jost? He looks amazing and plus he plays with Boeser next season

      I'd trade down to about 8-9 so one of Chychrun, Julovi, or Sergachev would be available.

    3. SedinMadness

      SedinMadness

      yes draft down for sure...like zoo said. benning has interest in oilie, and yes jost and gabbro look tempting.

    4. SedinMadness

      SedinMadness

      jost is slated to be a top 6 player for sure, so tsn said repeatedly.

  5. Your opinion on Jost? Would u trade some assets and grab another pick to try to draft him? Or would u even try to grab another 1st rd pick this year.

    2. Odd.

      Odd.

      Why would you give up an asset (Horvat/Virtanen) who are more developed and worth more than a 10th-15th draftee? It's also redundant because if were picking top 5, were getting a player better than all of those guys.

    3. Toews

      Toews

      Exactly what Odd said. I didn't even think it was worth talking of trading Horvat or Virtanen.

       

      Edler isn't waiving his NTC either.

    4. smithers joe

      smithers joe

      my point is what prospects do we have that a team with a top 10 pick would want from us...?...it has nothing to do with who we would trade....i wouldn't trade any of our good young players...some people propose that we trade players we don't want for good players on other teams..that doesn't work...

  6. Maybe this is why Calgary passed up on him? Too risky to draft NCAA players
  7. How are the goalies for this draft? Any good goalies we can snag up with pick #33?

      IMO let's take Adam Mascherin or Luke Green or Sam Steel or Niemalainen in that range.

    3. Baer.

      Baer.

      Why would Canucks draft a goalie??

    4. Baer.

      Baer.

      You can get (basically) a first rounder with #33

  8. But the salary in Utica is very low. Why wouldn't he want to go back to college? He can get another shot at the championship, a degree, and then become a FA and be able to choose whatever team he likes. True dat lol.
  9. I THINK Demko may only sign with us if he is on the main team as a backup or something. Why go to Utica and suffer all those painful bus rides?
  10. I like your sig. Shokugeki no souma is SOOOOO GOOD. Cant wait to see what happens next week for the manga :D 

    1. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      My fav manga atm. Soma will get rekt. That, or the match doesn't happen. Even if it does happen, it'll probably take a few weeks with multiple cliffhangers.

    2. JustABandwagoner

      JustABandwagoner

      Its sooooo painful with the cliffhangers :(

       

      I got a feeling Erina or somebody will stop it 

  11. Easy, from now on, DONT draft NCAA players. We wont ever have that situation again. *Exception might be Eichel types
  12. Hope it will be North Dakota vs Boston College Cheering for Demko to win. Simply because once he wins, he will sign with us :D sry boeser
  13. GUESS WHO SCORED FOR THE LAMES 

     

    Thats right... 

     

    HUNTER SHINKARUK

      48MPHSlapShot

      Maybe we could make a trade for Shinkaruk? Think they would take Granlund straight across for him?

       

      Of course they wouldn't, because that would be hilariously and stupidly one sided trade for us.

    3. Intoewsables

      Intoewsables

      Yeah but we got Patrice Bergeron in return so it's all good

    4. 87Crosby

      87Crosby

      I wonder if Flames fans follow Baertchi as closely as CDC will follow Shink?

  14. I feel like drafting NCAA players is just as risky as drafting russians. They could sign with other teams/KHL. 

  15. Quote me: Grandlund is gonna be a nobody while Shink will score 20-25 goals in his prime.
  16. Will it be possible for Benning to trade for a top 10 pick as well. 

     

    Assuming we get top 3, and then trade some stuff for a top 10. Could probably grab a D.

  17. On the canucks website a few days ago, they had a poll asking 

     

    On this three game roadtrip, how many games will the canucks win. 

     

    The choices were

    1

    2

     

    How come 0 wins was not a choice? 

    1. milk and honey

      milk and honey

      they don't want to mess with you.

       

       

    2. Odd.

      Odd.

      because everyone will vote 0.

  18. Would u guys move Horvat or McCann for like a Top 4 D? 

    1. Mr.53

      Mr.53

      McCann, not Horvat. McCann is skilled and will be a great player. But frankly, there is only so much room for young developing centers on an NHL team.

       

      Horvat, Granlund, McCann, and Vey are all kind of battling for 2 spots in the lineup. Granlund has shown the ability to play Wing, giving him some versatility, which Frankly, McCann needs to gain in order to get minutes on the NHL level. If not, he will struggle to get off the fourth or third line. I would love to keep him don't get me wrong, but if a good deal comes our way, you have to give to get.

      Ghostsof1915

      No I'd use our draft picks to draft Top 4 D. 

       

      Pro's build through the draft.. 

  19. Watch us pick 2nd or 3rd overall :D 

     

    1st is default edmonton 

  20. Brandon Sutter? Do you think he will stay next year? 

    1. thejazz97

      thejazz97

      Yep. He's a foundational piece

       

      TBH tho I wouldn't be surprised if JB moves out Hansen and puts Sutter on the top line again.

  21. How funny would it be if the oilers win the lottery again

      The GMs already talking about a new 'Oilers rule' around the lottery. Another Oilers win cements that. GMs are pissed about this.

    4. JustABandwagoner

      JustABandwagoner

      I like how the rule is named after the "Oilers" HAHA

  22. OMFG.... STOP WINNING. Its ok to score alot of goals, just let the other team score more plz <3
