We need guys that can battle through a tough playoff schedule, hit and absorb the hits and scrap and claw their way to crease.

Nowhere the skating issues, that was mentioned in other reports... He would definitely be perfect with Podz. Could also go a long way in playing against the Tkachuk's of the league... Anyone of McTavish, Guenter or Svechkov, would do for me, unless they go for the RHD... Edited June 9, 2021 by spook007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They suggest he has top pairing potential. McTavish would make me happy. This kid sounds like an absolute nightmare to play against. They go into Silingers skating stride and suggest that he has an awkward looking stride but it works for him. He stands upright but is very stable. This kid is one of the purest goal scores in this draft. I was concerned about his skating but maybe it is not an issue. They are also high on Johnson . They see him as a winger and think his hockey IQ is better then what other articles suggest. There is lost of details in their evaluations that can be compared with other main stream scouting reports. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a crazed Slapshot character - totally love that upside. THN comp is .... wait for it... TT but as a C. Basically another Horvat but two inches taller and a lot uglier. In other words - perfect. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BPA Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 I'd be fine with any of the BPA listed in the top 10. I prefer a F be picked over a D. But that's just my preference. Would prefer Eklund or Lysell cuz their skillset can probably be added quickly (like Caufield...recency bias ). McTavish and Johnson would be good adds as well but might take a bit longer to join the big club. Like that they are bigger and can't be easily pushed off the puck.

Luke doesn’t seem like he’ll be a bad player, but with Rathbone and Quinn already here, I think the Canucks would be going to the proverbial well one too many times with a Luke Hughes selection. Pass for me. Luke has been on many peoples list as 1st over all in this draft. He is bigger than Quinn and some say he will be the best of all the brothers Hughes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maniwaki Canuck Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 I'm wondering if Eklund isn't more likely to be available at 9 than either McT or Johnson. Any one of them would be good, imho, but the hype around Eklund seems to be falling just like it's rising around McT. People view Johnson differently, so no clear trend there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Watching Montreal, I'd say we're lacking in the meat and potatoes guys. We have skill. But we need some guys with size and speed with the upside of skill. It's all about balance. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Steve Kariya was more skilled than his brother Paul? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had a healthy Beagle, Sutter and pre-knee injury Rousell I think we catch MTL this year. Assuming we don't get the worst covid outbreak of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six foot 180lbs at 18yrs, at 20yrs. 6'2"and 200lbs perhaps. Centre signed with SKA for two years....sound familiar 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around the same time Raty was in talks for first overall. I think he will be a great player, but I'd like to see any report with him first, because I think there is a strong possibility he is the last of the big 4 D taken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might be the perfect partner for Hughes. But I don’t think the Wild will want OJ because he requires ED protection. So likely the 9OA would be more than enough. I’d think even our second might be enough. Our 2021 second rounder for Dumba. No mas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
