To me its like comparing Karlsson and Hedman. Both dominant in their own respective play styles. I hope Quinn and Rasmus are both elite and help bring Van and Buf their first cups. (Van first tho lol) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes is the best skater in his and could be top ten in the league this year, Pettersson, Horvat, Woo etc are all excellent skaters. They better make sure the ice in Vancity is well taken care of, there will be a home team advantage in the coming years against teams that can’t skate. Good thing there are plans to build a world class practice facility, which will allow the maintenance crew to have more time to work on any issues at Rogers Arena.

He will be a beast come playoffs. He already was a beast as a rookie vs the Flames. Although the "18 year old" got all the glory that series. Hmmm. How has that worked out since.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dahlin is the better player, which is why he was far and away the undisputed #1 overall pick. But, that being said, the Canucks got the 2nd best Dman in the draft. What is even better is that the Canucks picked BPA, but still ended up getting the exact player they need. Who cares about BUF, Canucks won huge on Draft Day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OJ was touted as the best skater in the draft related to defencemen. I don't know if that is still the case. I think Chychrun was close? But not seen to be to much of a gamble and OJ the safer pick (better hockey sense and vision). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I followed those D all year long during that draft and debate non stop with people. Not even the extremely pro Juolevi poster would say he was the best skater. it was always well known that sergachev and chychrun were superior skaters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think OJ appears to be a better skater, because of his elite skill, and hockey sense. None of these are even close to Hughes, of course.

If only the boy can stick handle at high speed. The kid has the size and speed combo that is a rarity in today’s game. Just need his smarts and hands to catch up and he could dominate shift after shift. I can’t think of many Dmen in today’s game that can make up ground after losing a step when Virt walks em wide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Hughes even faster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
