JB has consistently said young, mobile defenceman are the hardest asset to acquire and then he goes out and gets exactly - None! If he's got a plan I guess I have to trust him. Juolevi, woo and Rathbone are 3 big reasons to draft forwards 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clock Tower Prison Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 32 minutes ago, Phat Fingers said: Played in the SHL one year earlier than EP40, while being a smaller guy. Nowhere near the impact, but still.very impressive. Likely got the chance because Rogle was a bit of a basement dweller in the SHL. They finished second last in 2017 and fourth last in 2018. They kinda became a mid-pack team this year with a 6th last finish. Probably for the best that he was on a poor team and didn't light it up since he fell to us at 40.

Popular Post GoldenAlien Posted June 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2019 (edited) Hoglander's top 10 finishes at the combine: VO2max (duration): #6 VO2max (ml/kg/min): #9 Pro Agility Left: #8 Pro Agility Right: tied for #4 Windgate Test (peak power output): #1 Bench Press: #2 Pull Ups: tied for #1 (each did 16). Just based on the pull ups alone he should be better than Bennett . Edited June 23, 2019 by GoldenAlien 2 2 9 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Quantum Posted June 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2019 Bold prediction: He'll crack the roster in the 2020-2021 season. One more year in Sweden and then he'll come over to Vancouver. I LOVE this pick. And this is a reason why the Canucks need more Second Round picks is because of guys like this. I feel like he's gonna be a "player" as Benning used to say about prospects back in the day. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha gosh that is bold. im still so hyped off this pick. i wanted for the majority of the year Lassi at 40. God he went higher than what I thought months ago but I think for good reason I think he’s going to be very good. But Hoglander was another guy I’ve wanted but thought after the combine there was no way he’d be there at 40. And when Holmstrom went in the first before him I thought ok that seals it he’s going any moment here.. cant believe we got him! i don’t know how long he’ll take. Whether it’ll be 1 year SHL then NHL, 1 year SHL -> 1 year AHL then to NHL or 2 years in SHL but I think I’m 2-3 years time he will be on our team and he’s gonna be good. Kids going to will himself into the NHL Really excited to see him and pods in world jrs next year. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure961089 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Hoglander is Jonny Gaudreau 2.0. Elite skill and speed. His edge work is impeccable, and that’s not even the best part of his game. This kid can break ankles, his hands are lightning quick. I can see him being a big part of this young core after 1 more year in the SHL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His ceiling is high, super stoked on this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray_Cathode Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 9 hours ago, nergish said: I like it. Feels like a Dahlen reset, without the entitlement issues. Been a fan of his for a while, always seemed like a JB player. Absolutely sick hands. Did he grow though? I thought he was 5'9. Not great size. I mean, Dahlen was getting pushed around a bit in the AHL... he's 5'11. This guy is stocky, Dahlen was slender. This guy is quick and skilled, Dahlen was skilled and not so quick. Dahlen was a peripheral player, this guy, apparently is gritty. We’ll see. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB did really well, especially with our first three picks, getting value for where he picked. Podkolzin was a top 5 we got at 10 Hoglander was late 20’s we got at 40 Keppen was 80’s we got at 122 After pick 20 Guys go all over the place, but getting Podkolzin at ten was huge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
