One more rugged Canuck to join Zack, Gadj, Woo, and Podzkolzin. There will be viewer grins from the opposing team when they look at the schedule and see Vancouver's coming. Can you tell me more about him? Is he a fighter or hitter? What is he projected at right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would and then trade him to the Devils for Severson, McLeod and their late 1st(Islanders). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus his name has "wall" in it, which opens the door for some sweet nicknames. He’s the best goalie prospect of the last 10 years imo Personally, though, I wouldn’t take him where we’re drafting... However, I also think Cossa is the future of Canadian goaltending and would love to steal him with another 1st, or in the second if for some crazy reason he falls.

Askarov went 11th and Knight went 13th so 9th isnt crazy. Askarov appears to be the real deal and could be a steal at 11 if reaches superstar status.

I feel he is a better prospect than Askarov and Knight, who went 11 and 13 respectively, and with so much uncertainty in this years draft, he is a very solid bet. Buffalo, Seattle, Columbus, SJ, Detroit are all in the market for a future #1. I could really see Detroit going that direction as Wallstedt would be ready right as they hope to be competitive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appleboy Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 The Canucks could use a big physical center. Mason Mctavish could fill that hole. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, I don’t think Cossa is that far behind those guys. Also an A-level goalie prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie Y building around Seider, Raymond, Zadina, Veleno, and Wallstedt would be a solid group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertuzzipunch Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Svechkov is super intriguing. Im sure podz would love to have another russian that he knows on the team. I wonder if thats something JB is thinking about at all. Dude is also a fantastic player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If no decent Dman available when we pick, a power centre would be second choice. Either McTavish or Zachary L'hereux would fit the bill, if we remain at or around #9. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't really work out. Maybe Benning should put McDavid's card in his pocket Y'know, get a real good 1st. (I joke, I joke) Can't wait for the Draft, hoping for one of the Big 4 D, or Johnson, Beniers, Guenther or Lucius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhippy Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 This is the year the canucks will win the draft. With so many variables the best player will of course come from the spot we were slated to select from This is of course on the backs fo the league FINALLY changing the rules on how often a team can pick first overall in consecutive years and with Newell, Baumgartner and Weisbrod back we'll be slated for a 1st overall next year and lose out to Buffalo who hasn't had a 1st overall pick in like...forever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
