Derp... Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Fabbri at 10 or Fiala at 10 would be decent picks, but you gotta think, We would take Fleury if he was still on the board. Of course this all hinges on an Anaheim trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derp... Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Still calling an Edm Florida trade. Makes too much sense for both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thad Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Fabbri at 10 or Fiala at 10 would be decent picks, but you gotta think, We would take Fleury if he was still on the board. Of course this all hinges on an Anaheim trade. If the 10th pick is the major piece of the deal and we plan on taking Fluery, I'd rather try to get pouliot from Pitt. Higher end upside dman, then take a skill guy later in the round with their first. One of fabbri Fiala Ho-sang goldobin should be still on the board by the time Pitt picks. If those guys are all taken then there should be a real gem waiting for us at the pitt pick, Milano?. If I had my way and I'll probably get flamed but I take Ritchie at 6(unless someone falls). Trade Kesler for pouliot bennett 3rd or pouliot sutter first. We figure our centre problems out elsewhere. I think pouliot has higher upside than Etem or the 10th overall. If we can get Bennett, great, I'll take a lower pick. If we have to settle for sutter(who looked pretty good in the playoffs) then I'm comfortable we can get a good player in the late first. Even Ho sang would be great. Subtract Kesler if he really wants out and leave the draft with Ritchie Pouliot Sutter Ho-Sang. Sutter may be redundant but I think he's better than both Matthias and gaunce. One of the 3 can be used as future trade bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course this all hinges on an Anaheim trade.Are we supposed to get excited about Fabbri or Fiala while trading Kesler to our divisional rival?Or do the Canucks actually want to, you know, sell some tickets?

Pouliot is exactly the type of prospect this team needs, and something that is not clearly available in the draft. I'd be very happy with Pouliot, Bennett and a mid range pick for Kesler.

Absent Canuck Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 This list is taken from HF boards. Its a generally agreed consensus of the top 12 , bunched into tiers .

"Bull" Horvat Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 It was Shero & Bylsma that wanted Kes. One is gone and the other is still on the edge. Kes might not even want to go there anymore. To do what? play as a winger? a 3C? so stop bringing up the Pittsburgh proposals and look more into Anaheim as Murray will go make a pitch again Perhaps we can get Fabbri with the 10th overall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he hoping a top 5 drops and then picks that player. I would love to somehow see canucks scouting list. My personal opinion hasn't changed much Top five is someone falls then If we want to go with high end skill Nylander is my guy. If we want a more rounded player Virtanen seems like a sold pick aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absent Canuck Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Very solid list. If it was between 3 players for our pick that's exactly how I see it Me too. Its not my list though a guy on HF did so.

If we pick Virtanen or Tuch or Fleury or Fabbri at #6 I would be disappointedAll this mega support for Ehlers and he is agreed on only at 8th? And Virtanen, who is ranked 10th here over Ehlers at 8th would be disappointing? Alrighty then.Anyway, this: http://www.draftsite.com/nhl/mock-draft/2014/ a recent mock draft shows us picking Virtanen at #6.1 Florida-Ekblad2 Buffalo-Bennett3 Edmonton-Draisaitl4 Calgary-Reinhart5 NYI/Buf-Dal Colle6 Vancouver-Virtanen7 Carolina-Ritchie8 Toronto-Perlini9 Winnipeg-Ehlers10 Anaheim-Fleury11 Nashville-Nylander12 Phoenix-Fabbri13 Washington-Goldobin14 Dallas-Sherbak15 Detroit-Pastrnak16 Columbus-Larkin17 Philadelphia-Barbashev18 Tampa Bay-McCann19 Minnesota-Tuch20 Montreal-Fiala21 Tampa Bay-Milano22 Chicago-Irving23 San Jose-McKeown24 St. Louis-Kapanen25 Pittsburgh-Ho-Sang26 Colorado-Quennville27 Anaheim-Glover28 Boston-Bleackly29 Los Angeles-Pettersen30 New Jersey-MartinThis is fairly accurate based on what I've seen myself and from scouts. Fabbri's playoff is causing him to rise a bit too much i think, but that's the way it is. Tuch and Milano at 19 and 21 is a bit late. Kapanen at 24 is a bit of a surprise as well, but not totally unexpected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Example: 1st tier, Ekblad, Bennett, Reinhart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Example: 1st tier, Ekblad, Bennett, Reinhart.Actually all he did was regurgitate some HF post? Of what consequence is that? Not sure.In reality there are no 'huge gaps' between 'tiers' in this draft. Far from it.Even this 'top-5' is an invention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I was thinking a slighter bigger Steve Sullivan. Maybe a mix of both, his playmaking game, the way he forechecks & the way he can move the puck so quickly before getting checked reminds of Desharnias. But he also has a scoring ability that I don't think Desharnias has. Which would play more into the Sullivan comparison. And that was just meant to be a style comparison. I'm not saying he can't be better than Desharnias just to clarify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
