Where's Wellwood Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I think what he's going for is "Who had the better multi-pick first round? Gillis in 2013, or Benning in 2014?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's Wellwood Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 To answer your question, I think what we gave up for that second pick matters. We gave up Schneider for 2013's extra pick, and Kesler for 2014's extra pick. While the extra pick in 2014 was 24th compared to 9th in 2013, removing Kesler was addition by subtraction. Schneider should never have been the goalie to get traded. Plus, 2013's draft didn't resolve the team's issues (mainly Torts fault since he reinstated a goalie controversy , lack of offence), while 2014's draft did (removal of Kesler from locker room, get younger (Bonino, Sbisa, Draft pick (McCann)) All in all, 2014 appears better but we won't know for sure for another half decade when Horvat, Shink, Virt, and McCann are all playing.

shiznak Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 The answer is Pat Quinn. Nedved and Antoski, best multiple first round picks in franchise history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck nit Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Gillis had one good draft and five that stunk the joint out. Benning had one good draft. Benning 1 for 1 Gillis 1 for 6 Benning made Gillis look like the pretender he was in his first few weeks on the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supermanbieksa Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Hard to say who had the best multiple(1st) pick draft yet based on the drafted players, even though I'm happy with all of our recent first rounders at the moment. But as I didn't like the Schneider trade(say all you want and whatever type of player Horvat deveolps into I think we could have gotten more) I'd have to say Bennings first draft day was better than Gillis last.

2SKATES1STICK Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Horvat/Shinkaruk vs Monahan/Porier/Klimchuk ? Horvat/Shinkaruk vs Wennberg/Rychel/Dano ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks Curse Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 The fact that gillis had a shot at getting calgarys 6th to draft Monahan and turned it down is enough to make him the automatic loser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toews Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 How are we supposed to even answer this question? We won't even have the slightest inkling of which duo is better until at least 4-5 years from now. As far as which I would take now, I will take Virtanen and McCann. But this going to be entirely dependent on people's preference. The fact that gillis had a shot at getting calgarys 6th to draft Monahan and turned it down is enough to make him the automatic loser.
