Draft a C and D. if it was tanev, a prospect/young player, or pick, and if Benning went prospect/young player, who would your guess be for either?

Could you imagine these boards after we picked 3 and 5? We would never stop hearing about the player who went 4th..... .....Ever :D Edited June 2, 2017 by J-Dizzle 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Dizzle Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 10 minutes ago, The 5th Line said: Whoever Dallas feels they need to fill in a hole. Only they know what they need Tanev + Gaunce + 2018 4th for 3rdOA + Goalie Tanev + Granlund for 3rdOA + Goalie + 5th rounder/C prospect I would be reluctant to trade Granlund because we need more guys his age to grow with the team. Additional minor leaguer swaps as needed, possible future draft pick considerations as well. Well at least you are smart enough to realize that our history of drafting has been putrid. 4th overall will be discussed because we will probably swing and miss on 3rd and 5th Oh look, the fifth line is complaining about our prospects again..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can google the Canucks drafting history yourself. You must be new here So you wanted Tkachuk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been as good a drafting GM as the organization has had. I'm still not a fan of his yet though haha. He makes too many questionable moves IMO but I don't claim to know everything, just my take 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't want to trade any prospects at this point. I would do Tanev, CBJ 2nd and another pick this year or next year for DAL 3rd overall and Lehtonen or Niemi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theminister Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 A draft list of most NHL ready players is very different from a list of players you'd project out. That's why saying X player was a better pick 1, 2, or 3 years out is folly. It's a long game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe but probably not. Lebrun was the one that brought it up. He was basically going into the interview with pre loaded ammo to help build a story.
