Honky Cat Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I love the playoffs,especially the first round..Although,I would rather not be in it ,than be unceremoniously dumped in the first round....I think we should just sit this one out. I don't see the Canucks quitting this season,although I'd like to see the younger players getting lots of ice time and being used in all situations.

asian player Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 yea let's make it to the playoff and get outplayed by st. louis/anaheim/san jose/colorado/chicago/LA...the west is way too strong this year and there's no point drafting out of the top 15 in a year where we have no shot. People need to stop looking at the 2012 kings and comparing us to them. They were a playoff team with playoff players. Canucks have too many injuries and aren't as deep as they once were. Stop hanging onto the glory days and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuongovsTuuka Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I think the Canucks will show heart from here, but no finish as has been the case most of the season and we draft in the 7-10th position. A high draft pick does not guarantee a top player. You can't tank and expect a miracle. It hasn't worked for teams like Florida or Edmonton. Columbus finally started getting better when they got a real GM who made smart moves and acquired what they needed to compete. Their high draft picks have had little to do with it. In fact, they got better after they traded Rick Nash. Ryan Johansen is having a great season and stands as the exception, but he was a #4 pick right after Florida drafted Gudbransson. So, yeah, the higher draft pick only works if you draft the right guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Kneel Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I would like the highest pick possible with room to trade down a couple spots ergo snagging an extra draft pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan kesler the beast Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Playoffs. I always want to see the team play in the playoffs even if they lose 1st round. Who knows they can get hot and confident and if kesler, Daniel come back we could do some damage. If lack plays great too. I think Dallas will lose some games with tougher teams.

aliboy Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Looking at the schedule we have a shot here. Dream scenario, we just make the playoffs and get Kesler and Daniel back just before the end of the regular season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksSayEh Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 We are gonna pick someone way ahead of their projection anyway. Could probably get them at 24 when we get swept in the 1st round just the same as missing the show and picking 9th. Go for it, losing is for losers.

Could probably get them at 24 when we get swept in the 1st round just the same as missing the show and picking 9th. Go for it, losing is for losers.Funny I seem to recall we picked a guy right around his projection last year and a guy who was a projected top 15 pick at 24.So.

terrible.dee Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Play our kids so they can get more exposure and ensuring we get a top 10 draft pick. PLEASE do not try to squeek into the playoff, fail or make it we will end up drafting 13th to 16th. We need to draft in the top 10 for the next 3 years. This, I wan't to see Jensen and Shroeder every second shift from here on out. Let's use these games to our advantage, break in the prospects and get the highest pick possible. Tell Henrik and Kess they can go home early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucklehead44 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I kind of hope they tank but don't do it on purpose. We have a good chance of picking 6-10 position. Nick Ritchie, Brandon Perlini, Leon Draisaitl, Michael Dal Colle, Jake Virtanen or Haydn Fleury would all be solid picks. At least one of those guys should drop to 10th. Anthony DeAngelo, and Julius Honka have a lot of skill but not the size package of the other guys mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LLYNCES Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 All it takes is a solid winning streak, and for Dallas to lose a few games.Not impossible, but it is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanNuck Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Even if they make the playoffs, there is little chance they'll survive one round. The whole team is messed up, better to just tank it, aim to draft Rinehart, and then McDavid next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I'll take the run for the playoffs every time.Keep on demanding the most from our players, never give them the idea that losing is okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
