People who think this are people who base opinions on players on what they read in circle jerk internet forums and stat sheets and not on watching the actual play of the player.

Also, this is definitely the better move. I dont know how people were so convinced he was ready for the league. Sure, he has all-time wheels and skill, but watching his college highlights you can see him get pushed off the puck and lose board battles more than you'd want him to. He is often able to overcome his stature with a good stick and agility, but not often enough. He would had perfomed ok in the nhl but ultimately would have disappointed a lot of you based on what your expectations were. Dont get me wrong, kids gonna be elite, just not at 18.

Shout out to all the chicken littles who actually believe that there is even a remote chance in hell that quintin hughes stays in college for 3 MORE YEARS in order to leave college a ufa. He literally has said nothing but good things and has expressed nothing but excitement about joining the canucks. John Weisbrod was literally in the room when he was born. You really think he going to stay in college for 3 MORE YEARS so he can turn his back on a family friend and a team that coveted him and aligns themselves with whats best for his long term development? Yall crazy fam.

Very bullish on virtanen. His combination of speed/size/shot is rare. He's working hard on his hands this summer and if he gains the soft touch he was missing at high speed last year then lookout. He will have game-breaking ability. We got a taste of it last year. He's starting to put it together. I honestly think the twitter thing that happened (not gonna put it on blast and mention specifics. Like my man pusha terrence said, if you know you know) involving him last year was a real turning point. I remember the first game after that happened it was like he had a new gear. It was like a wake up call for him. After that he was all focus. Jake Virtanen 23 goals in 2018-2019

Bo gets 35 goals Boeser gets 35 goals Petterson gets 65 points and time at centre 1 goalie goes down and demko sees significant time and does reasonably well Quinn Hughes is not ready for the NHL Canucks end up 10-7 in conference Hot takes only fam
