This definitely seems like a forward draft, should be able to get a top line player at #10 vs a second pair dman or a high risk D pick that could boom or bust. I agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be bummed at first, thoughts of McDavid and Caufield reeking havoc, and then I realized, this is EDM. They will probably rush the little guy into the lineup and with his small size, he'll struggle with the time and space. I'm not sure he could keep up to McDavid anyway. Maybe they put him with Draisaitl? With them having Yamamoto in the system already, drafting Caufield seems kind of redundant. Sounds like an Oilers pick. The Oilers will ruin anyone they decide to take at 9. Other than McDavid (who would be a 100 pt player no matter where he went) and Draisaitl, they have continued to ruin good prospects thinking they can play past their development stage. I cringe whenever they pick an exciting player. Edited April 25, 2019 by NeilColville 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caufield would be my guess, though, simply because he does everything Kailer Yamamoto can but at a more proficient and consistent level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the 2017 Draft, I reeeeeally wanted Vilardi or Glass, but then Benning went to the podium and selected this skinny Swedish kid I never really considered. I was in disbelief. How could he pick this skinny kid over the higher ranked players with size? It wasn't until I really started to watch Pettersson that I realized Benning had chosen the right player and how lucky we were to get him. So, saying that, maybe Benning does take Harley? Maybe he will be just like Chabot? Maybe were all hoping for Krebs and Turcotte, but Harley is actually the better player and has a higher ceiling? Maybe Harley is the best fit for the Canucks? From what I've seen of Harley, he is an excellent skater, good hockey sense, can jump in the play, defensively responsible, etc. He's also 6'3", and maybe he'll fill in when Edler's days are done. The left side would look great anyway: Hughes Harley Juolevi Tryamkin Makes some poor decisions. Inconsistent defensively. Has a problem with getting caught pinching. He's big & skates well, moves the puck well. But he's got things to iron out in order to be a good top 4. We already have a gambler with Quinn who's alot better. Not the right pick for us IMO. There'll be a good forward option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be a right side defenseman or one of the forwards... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also compared Krebs to Ryan O'Reilly. I really like Harley too, but at #10 there will be a few real good top 6 forwards. I think about Woo, taken in the 2nd. He's going to be a good Dman for the Canucks in a couple of years. My hope is that they nab a good Dman with the 2nd again. Perhaps Thomson, Seider or McCarthy. Can’t remember where I heard the comp. I agree with forward at 10 just feel BPA is the guy that’s available if it’s Boldy, Zegras or Krebs. A couple of those dmen I don’t know if they make it to our 2nd however if they do seem like no brainers. Me personally I’m leaning forward at both 1rst and 2nd round picks. Really like Puistola, Pelletier (if he falls because of height) and Rees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

86Viking Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Button seemed very high on a D named Makar in a recent draft. I was skeptical as all heck due to no exposure, lower end competition but I sure like his game with the Av's to start the playoffs. He was high on the Kid then and sure looks like he was right. At least Button is changing up some of his rankings, its easy to stay complacent and stick to the same group. There is usually a surpise pick or a faller so lets see what happens...
