J.I.A.H.N Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Just looking at the junior draft defensemen and just love to get 2 of these guys. 1. Ivan Provorov 2. Jakub Zboril 3. Jeremy Roy 4. Ryan Pilon There are some higher defensemen then this lot, but to me Ivan Provorov is a gotta have. I think we are in the ball park and it may cost us piece that will hurt. Giving into those CDC fans that think we will be in the playoffs, I will concede for this proposal that we end up in a final draft position of 15th OA pick. Question #1 What do you think it would take to move up and get Provorov? Who, I think he will go 9th or 10th OA. Question #2 Is there any chance we could move up with a second pick first rounder and get one of the next 3? Would really love Provorov and Zboril.........from what I have read, these guys could really turn out to be gems, and would solve most of our offensive/defensive woes in 3 or 4 years. Yes, there are many different choices, just love these choices, that are reachable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRussianRocket. Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Roy can fall to us in the 20ish range. Provorov, not so much. Pilon has fallen quite a bit and will be taken in the late 1st/early 2nd, 2nd more likely. Zboril I don't know enough about. I know we need defense but I have a feeling management will be looking to take a dynamic forward (winger) with the 1st pick. We have very good prospects that are safe bets, but need a game breaking talent. We took McCann last year - great pick, Boston takes Pastrnak right after and look at him. Need a player like that so maybe we take a Zacha or someone. And dmen success rate isn't bad in the mid rounds too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCammer Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Our defensive depth isn't terrific in terms of prospects so I do think it is an area they will likely explore. The trade for Clendening helped shore us up a bit so I think we will still be looking at taking the best player available when our pick rolls around.

TheCammer Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I have no interest in a D-man named Pilon (Pylon). Just sayin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 IF we can get another second rounder I would love to pick up another BC local dman Noah Juulsen from Everett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 That's certainly an ominous handle^^, for a D-man. Any relation to Phaneuf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuktravella Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 canucks need more picks hansen and higgins provide no more offense than kassian or kenins and horvat provide while taking 5 mill up in cap which could get us a decent too four dman in free agency hansen higgins richardson and one of our d needs to be moved for picks at deadline please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck nit Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 This team's strength is it's PK. I don't want to see it destroyed for some kids that may or may not help the team in five years time. Benning is shoring up the present roster going forward in whatever manner he can,while not hurting the team's chances at winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KassianArtRoss Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 With such a deep draft all the first round picks are highly sought after making the price of these picks skyrocket. Id like to see managment go after 2nd round picks since these will most likely still be great players but cost half as much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
