Zhukini Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 The worst thing this franchise did over the last three years was play Jake and Jared when they weren't ready. I'm glad they learned from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester13 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Ferraro thinks we will still finish near to dead last but now won't get embarrassed doing so whereas O'Neil thinks the veteran signings will make us move back up into mediocreville, thus screwing us over at the draft next year for some franchise-changing players. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think? Considering the past two years we sucked and still got jacked at the draft, might as well at least try to be respectable. Highly doubtful we'll be a playoff bubble team, and the draft has a good amount of top-end talent. It'll also create more interest in the team while we wait for the kids -- it's not like we're signing busts and scrubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think? The Canucks will still be bottom 5 in the league come April. They might stay in that 10-11 spot in the West for a while, but without having a top 2 dman, they won't be able to sustain pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess this all begs the question as to what the direction of management is now, are we trying to get better already or trying to go full rebuild with top end draft picks? Are we going to miss out, yet again, on a draft with a potential franchise player? We can get jacked at the draft every year, can we? I feel like we will move up from last year's 29th and I'm weary about landing with only a top 10 pick, but I do want to be competitive. Such a tug o war situation. I guess we will just have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
