Try Again Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Mike Gillis took over just prior to the 2008 draft - only 3 seasons ago. It's idiotic to expect a regular roster player on a championship-calibre team where there is maybe one or two roster spots to fight for for. Also, it's idiotic to expect prospects to develop into a roster player under 3 years. 2008 Cody Hodgson - played 8 games in 2010-2011; rookie in 2011-2012 Yann Sauve - played 5 games in 2010-2011 Undrafted Chris Tanev - played 29 games in 2010-2011; 4 games in 2011-2012 Up and coming Eddie Lack - Undrafted Kevin Connauton - 2009 3rd round pick Jordan Schroeder - 2009 1st round pick Anton Rodin - 2009 2nd round pick Bill Sweatt - 2007 2nd round pick (CHI) Joe Cannata - 2009 6th round pick Nicklas Jensen - 2011 1st round pick Joseph LaBate - 2011 4th round pick Frank Corrado - 2011 5th round pick Patrick McNally - 2010 4th round pick David Honzik - 2011 3rd round pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boudrias Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 What is Sauve's problem that he never is mentioned as a contender for the Canuck's d-core? A stay at home d-man with size who plays the right side I believe. Cannot watch the Wolves so no idea other than stats and summaries on how he is doing. Is he progressing?

Millerdraft Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Honzik was a mistake anyway. Could have drafted him in the 7th round ot via FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Droj Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 They were talking a little bit about the draft on Team 1040 this afternoon. They were poking some fun at the Calgary scouting. They said that they haven't had a decent draft or even decent first round pick in like 15 years. I think they mentioned that only one of their draft picks has played 400 games in the NHL in that span. Even their franchise player (Iginla) wasn't drafted by them. So if you are going to complain about Canucks scouting, at least know that they aren't the worst. They aren't the best...but still not the worst. We at least have a very strong core that was drafted and groomed by the Canucks system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonberries Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Does anyone know who these guys actually are? I've never seen a complete list of their scouting staff other than the one on the site here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canucklehead44 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 The Canucks are good at drafting/discovering top 6 talent but not so much lower end talent. Sedin, Sedin, Kesler, Burrows, Hodgson, Raymond, Hansen, Edler, Bieksa, Schneider are all top 6 level forwards, top 4 defenseman, or starting goalies (in turns of calibre). Outside of Hansen maybe being considered a career bottom 6 player (and still has better numbers than a lot of top 6 guys on weaker teams) pretty much the entire core of the Canucks are draft picks. The only non-Canuck draft pick who we would really miss if they left is Hamhuis and maybe Luongo (but Schneider/Lack would probably step-in no problem). Out of the last 13 drafts the only player to stick around the league as a bottom end player is Mike Brown. So even though our draftee games played is probably the lowest over that period we have quality of quantity. Over the last 5 draft years, Detroit draft picks have combined for 1 goal in 21 games. Go back 7 years and that number is 83 goals over 821 games. So we aren't the only team that has not has much recent success. In comparison, over the past 5 years the Canuck draft picks have combined for 15 goals in 67 games and over the past 7 years 138 goals in 569 games. I think any collection of picks could be considered a successful draft year: - 1 top line/top 2/starting goalie - 2 solid contributors (2nd line, 3/4 defenseman) - 1 solid contributor, 2 NHL regulars (bottom 6, bottom pairing, backup goalie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostsof1915 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I've been saying for years the Canucks should fire Delorme. However I know Gradin has a lot of input and he's found some gems for us. We only have 5 amateur scouts. The Flyers have 13. This might explain why the Flyers find good players in later rounds of the draft. The only downside is the Flyers can't scout a good goalie. Our scouting staff is here: http://canucks.nhl.com/club/page.htm?id=39884 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
