[Proposal] 2016 Draft


Recommended Posts

Just thinking outside the box here and bringing it back to the Sedin draft..

 

If the Canucks get the 2nd or 3rd pick in the draft maybe we can make a trade to get the other pick (2nd or 3rd).

 

Then we could draft Patrik Laine and Jesse Puljujarvi.

 

To ???: Bo Horvat or McCann, Demko, 1st 2017.


To VAN: 2nd or 3rd over pick 2016

 

Flame away..

Of course you're going to get flamed because it would be stupid to trade Horvat, Demko AND McCann and a 1st pick for a prospect who may not have a greater impact than all of them combined not to mention it would gut the Canucks prospect pool again. 

 

It's basically an unnecessary sideways move.  No one should even be thinking of giving up on these Canuck's prospects yet.

Quick FYI, It was Bo OR the other 3...

oh.  fail on my part then, but still Bo is going to be a future captain and Demko/McCann could develop into great pieces.  Not sure why the Canucks need to give up on them yet.  

 

It's the later picks that JB really needs to hit some miracle homeruns on

If I had to make a guess right now I would wager that Laine or  Puljujarvi will be better NHL players then Horvat.

 

I'm of course looking into my crystal ball, that being said I love Bo and what he brings but with a combo or Laine and Puljujarv I think we're a playoff team next season.

 

Sedin - Sedin - Burrows

Laine - Sutter - Puljujarvi

Virtanen - McCann - Baertschi  

Dorsett - Etem - Hansen 

 

Just a quick mock line up but that is a playoff team with a real potential unreal future.

If it was Demko,2017 first there would have to be something significant added that would be bittersweet.Adding two scoring 6'4 wingers to Horvats line would be pretty insane though.Ten years plus of a pp juggernaut.

To get both Finns we give up Demko?  DONE!

Demko,2017 first,Tanev,2016 second.Myself I'd probably do that if it got both Finns.The top six would be set for a long time.

very interesting proposal, Tanev can be replaced by a guy like demers who is a ufa this offseason, and markstrom looks like a solid 1G but not likely to be a star. Demko has more star potential than Markstrom. It is a very good proposal but if you think about how championship teams are made, I would not do this deal. SC winning teams are built from the goal out with a star 1G, or excellent 1G, star 1D, 2 top centres and usually only 1 elite winger and 2 other really solid wingers. and lastly an excellent shutdown centre. I would not move demko unless it is for auston matthews that franchise, generational player that is hard to find. Also in building a team a true franchise 1D is most important then a true big, skilled 1C and then 1G.

 

If it is edmonton with the first pick, I bet they do this trade because it helps out so much now and down the road as they have not had a top goalie prospect like this in a very long time. Tanner steps in and helps them immediately,probably as their top d man.

At the cost of one of the best goaltending prospects around? You win from the net out, buddy.

The thread was about trying to get both Finns,it's not a case of running Demko outta town by any stretch just a scenario.Aquiring the second pick would take a big offer.
