wattevr Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Still trading with Florida... No shock here. mccann is another young centre, when we have others comparable and farther along. Couple of picks list but second is the only one with any value. Bet the benning critics are a little quieter today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where'd Luongo? Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Wow, lots of discussion happened about McCann. I really didn't see it coming but at least it's for a great defender. Looking forward to seeing Gudbranson in the green and blue! Best of luck to McCann, I think he'll be the real deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Vanderhoek Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 don't get me wrong, he is young, has size and provides what the Canucks need from the back end. Just not a fan of the exchange of assets. Nice to see him deliver some physical play next season in Canucks colors though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where'd Luongo? Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 One thing for sure is that we will be drafting a forward with our 5th overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mathew Barzal Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Kid better live up to that #3 status. Benning is just throwing picks away left, right, and center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLT Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Seriously people. Big tough, solid, YOUNG defensive defencemen do not grow on trees. We are getting a more proven young player here. Do not underestimate the necessity that is solid defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wattevr Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share Posted May 26, 2016 He's listed as 6'5 216lbs. Blocks shots and hits like mad. This is a very good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EddieVedder Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Cross between Mitchell and Hamonic. We havent had a dman like this, maybe ever. And he will actually stick up for and defend any of his teammates, without hesitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Gudbranson is a player the Canucks need but at # 33rd and McCann ? Florida will be reaping the rewards of this trade lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintPatrick33 Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Trymakin and Gudbrandson, at least our defence should be a lot tougher to play against next year. We just need some offence back there. Gudbrandson reminds me of a Chris Phillips type player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
