  1. Don't count out our San Jose Canucks just yet ;)! Look at that fight! Up 6-0 in the 2nd period!
  2. You might be mixing him up with top 10 draft eligible prospect Elias Pettersson who is around 150 pounds.
  3. Well if there ever was a year to suck this would be the year. A lot of movable players for hauls at the trade deadline if that's where this season goes. I'm thinking the bats wake up and we start making up some ground! It's a long season!
  4. The only guy in the batting order that knows how to play baseball right now lol atta boy Morales! Cue the long winning streak!
  5. I think just last years draft with Austin Matthews being older for his draft class. I think it was something like if he was born 3 days earlier he'd have been in the McDavid and Eichel draft. Can't remember a guy being younger in a draft off the top of my head.
  6. From what I've heard his defence is good for his age. I think a lot of ppl are looking at him wanting 60-70 points (Karlsson clone). He will be like Drew Doughty good all around and a consistent 40 point dman with maybe a couple 50 point seasons. I'd take him 3rd overall but I get some people are really high on forwards and Liljigren being hurt this year may have dropped his rankings a little bit. I can't see him getting passed 6th overall.
  7. It's a good looking list. I'm also a fan of Makar but give the slight edge to Liljigren.
  8. Every prospect is risky. I think Liljigren is more of a sure thing than Juolevi.
  9. Hischier is no slam dunk prospect and the price would be crazy just because that precedent is set to a high price. Can't remember the last time a team traded down in the top 3. I want to say 2003 was the last time it's happened. I'd rather just keep the haul it would cost and take Liljigren or Mittelstadt!
  10. Yeah sign me up for that. Do you think our 4th rounder can get him? Anything that deep into the draft is a pretty big long shot so why not put that shot into somebody offensively gifted.
  11. Patrick and Hischier is a toss up and I'm with you on picking second and not being stung by making the wrong pick. I'm not a big fan of Vilardi because I don't see the offensive prowess to be a number one centre which we need badly. I do like Liljigren but am torn because taking him really clogs he d line and the dman I want to draft is next year ;).
  12. While I do like Oettinger I can't see how the team could spend a top pick on a goaltender. We have so many holes in other positions and where Oettinger should be drafted you could make a case for probably 3-5 guys being BPA so from there it's preference of position. I know the importance of having goaltending at all levels but Demko's name alone makes me think every goalie the Canucks draft from now on should be a Hail Mary 5th round or later.
  13. Some of the players I like around 33 are Brannstrom, Lind, Strome, Popugayev, and Timmins.
  14. Dahlen is the guy we have. Dahlin is the guy we're drafting 1rst overall in 2018.
  15. Hopefully he puts in a great offseason! I am excited for Goldy!
  16. Patrick or Hischier this year and Dahlin next year. Rebuild complete!
  17. There was once a time when I thought Bieksa would never waive his no trade clause. I know an Edler trade is unlikely but it could and I can hope lol.
  18. I don't see Hutton being moved for picks that's Tanev and Edler trades. Hutton is young enough to be a part of our future core. The only time I'd trade Hutton is like what I've mentioned above taking advantage of a team before the expansion draft. Hutton has added value because he's exempt meaning a team could save one more guy. The time to capitalize on a Hutton trade is before the expansion draft because his value is at his highest if we're talking after that I'd prefer to keep Hutton and trade Edler or Tanev.
  19. I totally agree if a trade were to be made the player being saved from expansion draft has to factored into the value which should heavily favour the Canucks in a trade. If Benning could find something like this I would be on board with the deal because of our strong depth at defence.
  20. I think the only reason Huttons name is being thrown around is because he is expansion draft exempt which adds a lot of value to his name. If we could find a team that has a lot of players to protect we could trade Hutton (added value because of this) for a young forward that needs to be protected. I'm thinking names like Sam Bennett from Calgary and Tyler Johnson from Tampa.
  21. Demko carrying Utica to the playoffs! Kid is a stud!
