Horvat + Vilardi + Juolevi are winners that's for sure + Stecher, Boeser but I think you referred to them already perhaps?

sedinaliens2233 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I keep changing my mind. My order now that I want would be Vilardi, Makar, Glass, Middlestadt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroCanuck Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Hirshier Patrick Vilardi Glass Heiskanen Petrersson Makar Id be stoked with any of these guys! Guaranteed at least one falls in our laps. Really hoping for a Tanev trade and another top ten pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honky Cat Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 3 hours ago, Blömqvist said: If Heiskanen falls to our pick at 5 and Vilardi and Glass are off the board I could definitely see Benning considering him. A Juolevi-Heiskanen would be our top everything unit for the next decade+. That unit would have excellent shutdown, puck moving, and offensive ability. That said, I don't know how the fan base would react picking a defenseman at 5 two years in a row when there are some high ceiling offensive prospects on the board like Pettersson, Mittelstadt, Necas, and Tippett. If Heiskanen were to be available at 5 I think the right move for Benning would be to trade picks with Buffalo who holds the 8th pick and get another asset. Buffalo is in need of defensemen and if they can get LHD Heiskanen they could pair him with RHD Ristolainen who is Finnish as well. That would allow us to pick up an extra pick or prospect while still staying in a position to draft one of Pettersson, Mittelstadt, or Necas. If Vilardi and Glass are off the board..I would hope that JB would take Heiskanen....You only have to look at the Sergachev for Drouin trade, to see how much currency a potential top pairing Dman holds. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aGENT Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 My final top 10: Nico Hischier Nolan Patrick Casey Middelstadt Cody Glass Timothy Liljegrin Martin Necas Cale Makar Elias Pettersson Miro Heiskanen Gabe Vilardi Here's hoping the Canucks can add another pick in there (and/or some later 1sts) and grab 2 of them.

wildcam Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I sure hope draft Cody Glass 6'2 185lbs sosomuch talent..Glass puts up 92points age 17yrs old on a weaker Winterhawks team. Glass lead team in scoring, I feel Glass with be 6'3, 210 when finished growing.. In 2 years he will be a very good player being a top centre on NHL team. Really want Cody Glass with #5 pick...Or if we get #3 pick still take CODY GLASS.... This young man is going to dazzle fans with amazing natural talent.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see JB trading Tanev after losing Tryamkin and Sbisa. Maybe because nothing has happened yet, it won't happen at all...maybe 3rd and 5th was a pipe dream someone tell me I'm wrong Canucks fans will try to figure out how to get all of the top 5 picks. It's fun to dream. I also can't see JB trading Tanev at this time, unless it would vault him into the top 3, but we would lose the #5. Is it worth it? I don't think so. Who can say that Glass won't be better than Vilardi? Or that Makar won't be better than Heiskanen? Or that Necas won't be better than Mttelstadt? The Canucks would basically be giving Tanev away if they moved up 2 spots. I'd rather they trade him at the TDL for more picks and a prospect (when they're out of a playoff a spot). Who knows, maybe Tanev isn't the D that will be traded. Canucks need a #1-2C more than anything. The future has them with Horvat and Gaudette. Not good enough. I think they draft Glass at #5, and JB may try to get another mid-1st to draft Pettersson. (eg. Hutton and the #55) Glass can also play wing, if needed. They signed Holm (LD), so makes sense to me that if they trade a D, it'll be Hutton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonder__Bread Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I don't care who they pick as long as they turn out to be a 1st line center or a top defenseman who can play the powerplay. The only reason our powerplay has struggled is we lack the threat on the point. Teams know that they can double team the Sedins cause the shot from the point won't be lethal. My preference as I'm sure you all know by now is Pettersson or Heiskanen. Both players, if they reach their potential, could be the best players out of this draft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dahlen-Glass/Pettersson-Boeser Baerstchi-Horvat-Vilardi Goldobin-Gaudette-Virtanen i would be down with that I'd prefer one of Vilardi/Glass, and then Mittlestadt. Since Vilardi played wing all year, I would draft Mittlestadt with the 3rd overall and Vilardi with the 5th overall: Dahlen/Mittlestadt/Boeser -Offensive line Baertschi/Horvat/Vilardi - Defensive line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only played wing last year other than that C growing up and when he started in WHL. Spitfires just had too much depth down middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker 67 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 The two players the Canucks really seem interested in are Glass and Pettersson. I'm surprised Vilardi hasn't been mentioned much. I wonder if Glass is available at #5 JB takes him, but what if Glass goes at #3 and Heiskanen at #4? Would JB take Pettersson over Vilardi? I'd be a bit confused over that choice. CANUCKS needs size and skill up the middle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much any top 10 ranked guy that isn't Tippett will do it for me lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be a bit confused over that choice. CANUCKS needs size and skill up the middle. I wonder if the lack of talk is just because they feel Vilardi played himself out of the Canucks range. I do think Pettersson will be the better offensive player out of the two. However Vilardi the better playoff player which is what it's all about is it not. I am a huge Pettersson fan but if I had the choice I'd lean to taking Vilardi as it stands right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
