And the way he moves up the ice! A once and future star -- I see so many past greats in his bearing and look forward to when he matures. 

Benning must have caught wind of this guy before he went south to scout the juniors, quietly, like he was on an intelligence mission. I remember people were puzzled by it, and he didn't say much aferwards, but it must have been hard not to jump out of his seat when Klimovich fell to him in the second round. 

I guess he's learned to be cool about these steals.

He's got first round talent, makes not picking in the first round a bit easier to swallow 

 

Not that I mind the OEL trade, he's looked good

Gotta think JB has a decent poker face when he scouts.  Other teams are paying attention to the Canucks drafting, based on waivers anyways… lol. 

 

For those that claimed the sky is falling when Brackett left, no disrespect to Brackett, but Klimovich looks to show that the talent assessments are there.  
 

What I do really like about JB, as a GM and leader of an organization, he has some humility and he absolutely corrects his own mistakes.  Doesn’t maybe admit it to the local riff raff, ooops, I meant Jeff Patterson and who ever else has re animated Gallagher’s corpse in the media.  But the off season was as much as a house cleaning as anyone could have asked for.  
 

At least if the whole thing flops, the club has a hella good future.  Now it would be a failure of coaching or management.  Based on the literal ‘buy in’ from all the top players drafted, example set by Horvat, the captain, now Hughes and Pettersson both could have pushed for more, but that would have cost a good player.  
 

That’s a team culture that is every GM’s wet dream.   Or coach.   
 

If it doesn’t work, it’s not the players in the room that will be shifted out.  
 

I really like this hockey team.  Just a tad stronger on defence and I think that would be it.

It was embarrassing to watch Twitter creeping on Benning in a grocery store when he got back from that trip and trying to accuse him of breaking his quarantine.  

 

That small deranged section of our fanbase should take up a new hobby.

Here’s a little more info - there’s a good chance that Canucks would have still taken Klimovich even if we had 1st round pick. In the 1st round… Also, the kid has one goal - to win a Stanley Cup in Vancouver. He absolutely loves it here.

New hobby, it’s been a money maker for years in local and national  the media hype train that failed to be hired by a credible news agency like the Weekly World News.

Klimovich is in the starting lineup for Abby Canucks! This should stop rumors that Danila is going to Quebec.

Somebody get this kid on PK training

[RomanP]

I just noticed that he’s marked as C. Can we change it? He’s RW, not C.
