Darius Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 so we have picked 6th, 5th, and 5th in a short period of time. that should be enough to turn a franchise around, but here we are still hoping all the stars align. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plaguez Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Just now, Tystick said: I never considered this guy before, but take a moment to look at his talent. This is a superstar in the making, especially with Dahlen. You mean only with Dahlen, in Sweden. Perimeter player, small, exactly what a tiny, weak team would need. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wanted him, he should have traded down to 7th at the very least and got another asset. This is by far the worst asset manager in Canucks history. Not always that easy I'm afraid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaudette Celly Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 5 minutes ago, canuckledraggin said: And he was on the phone with someone wanting to trade up. I don't get it. He would have been there at past 9 I think. Pretty clear he tried to, but either the value wasn't there and/or the risk he wouldn't be there where they ended up. Sometimes if you really want something you just have to take it and not play around gambling and micro-managing it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 2 minutes ago, Hutton Wink said: Will all those in 2014 who wanted the twiggy Euros and have complained ever since, now do the same in reverse? There's a difference though. Petterson wasn't in the top-5 in many expert scouts picks. His talent level isn't as high as Nylander and Ehlers, and there was a massive drop off in talent from Nylanders/Ehlers to Virtanen. Now we've picked a guy who's talent may be similar if not slightly higher than Glass/Vilardi. At the end of the day, it's difficult to decipher which player of the bunch is going to be better at draft day based on a couple of seasons of junior hockey, but that's the jobs of the scouts. Fair to say they made the wrong pick with Virtanen (especially considering Ritchie was there too). Now time will tell before we know who won this pick and how good our scouts really are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KelownaCanucksFan Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 The Canucks have a good history with swedes, I trust our Swedish scouting staff more than the NA staff. The Sedins were smaller and light at their draft, no one can question their bodies or physical strength 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
