  1. I was excited till I found out he was an overager. Still love the release on his shot.
  2. He would have been more attractive for sure if he was 15 pounds heavier. Hopefully it's a blessing in disguise,but he seems pretty paper thin right now.
  3. Actually Calgary is my most hated team but alright.
  4. The Vilardi slide reminds me of how far Filip Forsberg slid his draft year.
  5. That's funny but I was actually at the beach all day hanging out with hot chicks. None were named Brenda though. I'm fine with Petterson. Definitely not my first choice but at least we didn't take Andersson or Rasmussen.
  6. If we are lucky. I like this pick but that's asking a lot...
  7. I was pissed at first but I'm liking the pick more then I originally did. If he bulks up he could be a great PP guy and a good second line centre. Vilardi is the steal of the draft. I'm obviously not a pro scout but I can't fathom how he slid to 11. I know his skating needs work but it blew my mind.
  8. Virtanen is a team guy but your right he's not a leader at all...
  9. I like how Petterson is a slick playmaker and I see his ceiling being a Backstrom type....I think Vilardi will be back at centre next year. Steal of a pick for LA...
  10. I like this pick a lot. Watched him in the Memorial Cup and really liked what I saw.
  11. Hopefully Bo signs a long term deal.... he's the glue that will hold everything together before we turn things around...
  12. Way to dodge the question. Since when have you been politically correct?
  13. Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if we get screwed again. We are going to be top 5 bad again though so a top 10 pick in a deep draft will be nice. We are still a few pieces away from being a legit up and coming team.
  14. Ok so who do you think will be a third liner? Vilardi? Glass?
  15. We are going to suck next year there is no sugar coating that. At least next year is a stronger draft year, where we can maybe get a number 1 Dman if the lotto doesn't screw is again.
  16. I'm glad someone see reality. I never once said Petterson was a bust or a bad prospect. He is years away though. Vilardi will be ready in a year and Glass in 1-2 years. We need help soon our team is awful. I love the Canucks I hate seeing them as bottom feeders.
  17. Of course I meant on tv smart ass. Look at my previous posts I'm not always right but I often am. This wouldn't be the first first time I went against popular opinion and was right. I don't even hate the pick I just really wanted Vilardi or Glass. Petterson will be a good player but I think his trajectory is longer then the other guys. Teams will regret passing on Vilardi. When I'm proven right all you guys will vanish I'm sure.
  18. I've watched tons of Vilardi and Glass. Watched Petterson at WJC in like 3 games and wasn't blown away like I was with Juolevi in his underage year.
  19. Yeah I liked Petterson but not ahead of Vilardi and Glass. How is that Bi polar?
  20. Wasn't estatic about the pick but the ink is dry, he's a Canuck now. At least we aren't the rangers or Detroit who both skipped on Vilardi. They will regret it...
  21. At least he sounds happy to be a Canuck.
  22. So far I'd say the Vegas Knights and the LA Kings are winning the draft.
  23. Fair enough. Hopefully Petterson is a stud but it's going to be a 3-4 year wait.
  24. So far I'd say Vegas and L.A. Made the best picks.
