  1. No.... We barely have any players able come in a low contracts, with potential upside... Rathbone yes, as there won't be room for him for the next 4 years at least, but no to Hogs or Podz...
  2. Love this... Doesn't matter where you go, or what you do... never give up, but always give it your all, then it's NEVER a failure... We can't all win, but we can be the best, we can be... Be it in sport, working life or personal life... Don't ever give up... if it doesn't work out, get back in the saddle as give it another go... Its only a failure, if you didn't try your hardest... As for Musty, cheers amigo. I will have a good read shortly, and see what they say for him. PS. Happy for you and your achievements.
  3. According to that list, our 3rd and 4th round picks are going to be worth gold... gold...
  4. Bonk in the 3rd round... yes please Oscar Fisker Mølgaard in the 5th... Definitely some hot takes. Interesting list. They also have Quintin Musty at 9 on their list. Maybe Musty is a sleeper?
  5. Aye... part of the list is a couple of posts above your post... It is definitely a different list to, what everyone else has listed up until now. Actually nice and refreshing to see some other names mentioned.... but yes doubt that is the way the draft unfolds.
  6. Definitely different to the main stream. Kind of shows how many good players there are to be had. Thanks.
  7. That sounds like a wild swing...
  8. Can't see it... who is Canucks taking?
  9. Who do they have from 11-20? just curious who they expect us to draft at 11ish
  10. He does, and he draws penalties, but come play offs time, I'm afraid, he is going to be murdered. Who is to stand up for the star players? Dries, Beau or similar? Hoping for players like Klim to come through and a knuckle duster on the 4th line. But we still need bigger boys up on the top line at least.
  11. Like the all in attitude from both teams during scums... we would be creamed, I'm afraid... Agree 100% we need to get bigger and tougher... not just 1 or 2 players, but in general all over. Boeser may score more, but he and Garland to be the first to leave. Who will protect Demko, when they all pile in on him... or EP or Kuz? Or QH? definitely need to get bigger.
  12. For the samity of all Canucks fans, lets hope that is the goong to be the case...
  13. Cheers HoH... Dvorsky was my first pick, when the options came up, but there are some many twists and turns, and tbh I haven't got a clue anymore... I think Dvorsky would be a great pick, and doubt he'll be there at 11. I know, you should swing for the fences, when you have the opportunity, but I just thought that the floor was higher with Dvorsky, and the fact he is a C with both offensive and defensive upside, makes me think he would be an ideal 2C after EP, in a few years... possibly starting as 3C and then taking over from Miller, if he starts to slow down. He may not be the one with the highest ceiling, but if Canucks are aiming for play offs hockey, they need drafted players with almost certainty to make the team... Danielson sounds intriguing and have definitely been on the rise... Thanks The choices are amazing everywhere in the top 15+...
  14. I was actually about to write that same thing. I fear in our eagerness to address RHD ( and rightly so), we could end up in a Tkachuk v OJ again. please don't let time repeat itself...
  15. Interesting list... a few big surprises to mainstream... Simashev, But and Danielson all in top 9... What makes both you and HoH seem so high on But and Danielson ahead of Wood? Just curious
  16. Duslexic or fat fingers , I'm no better. My fingers are all over the keyboard so I'll be the last to say anything. Yes I think it was Elias Petterson that suggested something along these lones to get Carlsson. You can sign me up for that trade as well... it would set us up for the next 7-8 years and free cap space. An absolute dream. If Michov drops, its a no brainer... But most likely outcome is Wood if he is avaiable. The potential upside is huge, and he could easily become one the best from the draft...
  17. I'm not sure, who would be available at 11 with higher ceiling, but I said higher floor in my post. I don't really think there is anyone with higher ceiling than Wood. Maybe Benson, as he has huge potential. but I feel if it doesn't go entirely to plan, he may struggle with his size. players like Dvorsky, Leonard, Barlow would have a higher floor.... Regardless, if he is as close as it gets to become a 6'4+ power forward with silky mitts, and is expected not to have skating issues, I fail to see, why he would be there at 11.
  18. Fair enough... you see half empty, I see half full... Lets leave it that. Cheers
  19. Stillman? would you rather have kept Jason Dickinson? Stillman was traded for a prospect Josh Bloom, so it was basically a 2nd for Bloom and we got rid of Dickinson... I actually thought that was a good trade. And Studnicka was peanuts... trade for him with MDP and Myrenberg...what's the problem with that? He is at league minimum salary, can play 4th line minutes as a 13th forward. And when he vanishes, he has filled in a void....
  20. Signings... think they are fair. If Brock don't recover this season, different story, but if he does, there is no reason why he can't be traded. Maybe it was worth the fine? I have no idea, why she was sacked, do you have any info? Yes not everything is rosy, but I think with the hand they were dealt, they have done fine so far.
  21. I agree with Brock, but think they were at the deep end. Didn't want to lose him for nowt, and then he started the season poorly... Would likely have been better off, had he been dispatched of... Lets wait and see if the Miller deal ages as badly as some think. I don't think so, and believe he'll be fine for another 4 years. We'll see...
  22. That's exactly it... I think they are as much selling Vancouver to Petey as much as anything. Petey would be right in questioning Canucks ambition, if they just stood pat or started to sell out of their players... If they want Petey to hang around, they need to show they mean business... Yes it would good to know where real a scout think we are prospect depth wise...
