He'll be drooling over Vilardi Like me, he thinks he's a REALLY good player. But if you're looking specifically for a speed/offensive skill player as I believe the Canucks are... That's not a slight, he just has different tools. Edited April 21, 2017 by J.R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks need to take the best player available, not draft based on style. We still have way to many holes to fill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He makes mistakes. His final rankings aren't even done as well. When it's all said and done he will have Vilardi #3 in his rankings. Necas looks decent but his numbers don't blow you away. Vilardi's numbers aren't god like either but Vilardi passes the eye test every time I watch him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vilardi's numbers aren't god like either but Vilardi passes the eye test every time I watch him. He might very well. I've said this before many times but people get far too fixated on individual rankings. The draft is best viewed in tiers and they're all in the same tier.

I'd put Patrick and hischier in the same tier then vilardi and mittlestadt in the next tier by themselves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHockeyNerds Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 (edited) Dan Marr, Director of Central Scouting was on 1040 just before Button was. They have Mittlestadt as the 3rd best player. Mentioned his speed and skill and how he puts up points every where he goes Edited April 22, 2017 by TheHockeyNerds 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
