LAK are making decent moves to help contend maybe they could want to update their D. To van: Sean Walker 8th overall 2021 3rd (they have 2) To LAK: Nate Schmidt 9th overall. Essentially they pay a 3rd and move down one to get a great upgrade. We get a natural RD for half the money. Honestly cap reasons might be enough to do Schmidt for Walker straight across. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This really shows huge Defensive problems with Powers. Yes. The answer is yes. He reminds me entirely of Myers. Big. Skates ok. Ok hands. Meh shot. Is huge though, and stands out because he can skate. Been saying it for a while, powers is the safest bet to be an NHL player but will not be the best defenseman in this draft. Possibly not even top 3 D in this draft 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker 67 Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 The final Scouching report was interesting. I like how he put the prospects in Tiers. Too difficult (unstable) to predict the order. Tier 1 Beniers Eklund Hughes Lysell Wallstedt Tier 2 Johnson Power Edvinsson Clarke Guenther McTavish Raty Still have a feeling we're getting Lysell (another top tier prospect falls to the Canucks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's different than any of the other Top 10 prospects, so it's very intriguing. Same with Clarke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildwood12 Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Bob Mackenzies final list is out now. He has Kent Johnson at 9. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyLow_ Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 After Power it could go in any order on Bob's top 10 and I wouldn't be surprised. I have mostly the same top 10 but Johnson isn't in mine. Most likely players there for us are Hughes, Johnson and Lucius. I'd have a difficult time picking between Hughes and Lucius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Detroit or SanJose go Wallstedt, the we might actually see Hughes or Clarke fall to us. I’ve also seen some recent mocks with Eklund at 9OA, which would be an absolute steal of a pick. And there are mocks with pretty much every top prospect other than Power and Beniers slipping down to our slot, including guys like Hughes and Clarke. It’s going to be really interesting to see who’s available when we pick, but honestly, if we just take the consensus BPA at #9, I can’t see how we can go wrong. We’re getting a hell of a prospect on day one, assuming we don’t trade our pick. For some reason, my psychic powers are currently telling me Guenther falls to 9OA, which I’d also be very happy with. There’s really no one in the consolidated top-10 that I’d be unhappy with (other than maybe a goalie—and I could even get on board with that). Benning and the scouts will need to be drinking crazy juice and going completely off the board before I’m going to end up mad about who we take at 9OA.

Nucker 67 Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Any of these guys could be there at #9, so the Canucks will get a great addition to the prospect pool Johnson Guenther Lysell McTavish Hughes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beary Sweet Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Button has us selecting Johnson. I personally dislike the selection because he’s a local kid and there’s gonna be pressure on him to perform. If one of Hughes, Clarke, Edvinsson, Guenther, Eklund fall, we have to be all over it and pick em up. Hopefully Benning finds another diamond in the rough.

B.C.Renegade69 Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 I love Johnson as the 9th. Kid has the highest ceiling. Imagine our PP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Than Clarke but if we don’t get either of those I say we swing and get Johnson or Lysell. Even though I think Colombus will pick lysell. Honestly I’m Okay with striking out with Johnson I love his Potential but I understand all the risks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
