I honestly think Ericksson will be in a trade for the 1st overall pick, Florida need to groom someone for the future since they lost Markstrom.
Garisson/Tanev
6th overall pick
Ericksson
Hansen
Grade B Prospect (IE Hutton)
The fact that youve made a lot of post bashing people on forums tells everyone how immature you actually are, plus just because you feel angry doesnt mean you have to voice our opinion and in the process personally attack the poster. Certain culture dont put any valve in sports and only follow a team because it what everyone else does. Im not saying this is everyone thats a immigrent.
I love all these fan who think that the 1st overall pick isn't that hard to get Who else are you going to give up because 6th and tanev/garrison isn't going to be enough especially if toronto in offering whats reported
But in reality if we have another crappy season Benning is going to be fired and the head coach will be gone. And just because it's a "weak" draft doesn't mean that Reinhart is complete garbage. In fact it makes it more appealing to get someone like Reinhart because he will be a year ahead of the curve and will impact the team earlier. Also to all those people just saying "O lets tank next year because its a deeper draft" well the Canucks are still a business, and businesses need to make money and the canucks fan base mainly consists of bandwagon jumpers because most are fan haven't even played hockey (because they are immigrants) and they are interest because the team was Winning. Finally I believe if Reinhart was in the 2015 he would still be a top 10 pick and probably in the top 5 ( He would probably be the 2-3rd best centre in the draft)
it will probably be the 6th overall Garrison our 2nd round pick and a prospect, but who knows. If kesler is trade then if would probably by the 6th overall, 10th overall, and Garrison
as much as i want to see elder succeed somewhere else, he is still young enough to be a considered an asset rather than a liability. Also if you look at some of the goals that were scored against him they are just flukey goals. IE they hit him and go in. Finally i also heard from someone that he lead Canuck Defenceman in hits and block shots.
worst case in top 10
ekblad
reinhart
bennett
drasilti
del colle
us
ehler
kapanen
virtanen
us again
nylander and ritchie somewhere in there
so probably one of Fluery Ritchie Virtanen Ehlers is definitely ours. and at ten hopefully someone like Fiala or Fabbri is drafted in the top 10 so we get another one of these players
Virtanen does have a second line ceiling….. he has the floor or a 3rd liner and most likely will become a poor mans perry (25-30 goals 50-60 points) who plays a physical hard nosed game.
