Then we can go all-in next year with our picks and draft that #1! I really like Cal Foote for next year's draft. I know it already looks like: Patrick Liljegren Comtois Yamamoto Tippett Vesalainen Vilardi Kostin Hague Tolvanen But I think Foote could start being in the mix for top 20, if not top 10 soon. Cal Foote's been a special player in the Kelowna Rockets system. Drafting his tutor, Johansen, would benefit the Canucks down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gstank29 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I have Foote in the top 5 so far. He's the second best defenseman in the draft right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love those instincts offensively and defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention he has size 16 feet and is already a beast. Imagine if he grows to be 6'5/6'6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seven pounds soft Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I'll be happy with whoever we take with our first but prefer them not to be American. I'm all about diversity but we have our Americans already. So if we get the first oa I would hope JB would try a trade with Arizona for Strome in my opinion Strome will be anywhere from , as good as Matthews. , to better. also I think the guy with the alf fettish should stop talking in the third person like a douchecanoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at their tools and hockey IQ it's totally feasible. Neither of them are undersized or slow enough to hinder them at the next level, and they seem to thrive under pressure...so yeah, as a potential ceiling I don't think a #2/3 is unreasonable.

They do not get passed over 3 times or are ranked to get in the second round. and before you say Keith was a 2nd round pick, he wasn't 5'9 and 170 (which is generous) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I disagree with your view on Americans. I think we take the BPA regardless of nationality. Also disagree with your choice of chirp. Douchecanoe? Really. Is that original? Who says that?

Time Lord Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 5 hours ago, Time Lord said: Chychrun hasn't improved his offensive production from last season. Why isn't this a concern? I just looked back at the stats of Doughty and Pietrangelo before they were drafted, and they never improved either. So is it not really an issue? I don't know why but I keep getting the feeling that Chychrun will have an underwhelming career. Maybe it's just because I don't like prospects who are overhyped for their size.

Its not just his trolling that annoys me, it's the 100 posts he makes every day. He posts in every thread from Canucks talk to Off topic. You can't escape him.

TheSnipeshow91 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Fully agree with you SNYPERS. Watched Lucas Johansen play, and that's when Cal foote caught my attention. He has all the tools to be a top 2 dman in the NHL. And he's playing in a defense producing factory in Kelowna. Also, what is your opinion on Frederic Allard.

Derp... Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Favourite underrated prospect in this years draft is Cameron Morrison. August birthday, more than a point per game in the USHL, heading to Notre Dame. http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=268696http://thehockeywriters.com/ushl-feeling-the-wrath-of-2016-nhl-draft-prospect/ Aggregate ranking of 47, ranked from 33 to 76, most recently 40 by Craig Button Would love to get him with the 63rd pick.
