Can't miss I don't follow the draft nearly as much as I used too, (which is me saying I could be completely wrong), but couldn't Slafkovsky be like another Svechnikov?

I think Slaf will absolutely go 2nd. He's already quite a bit bigger than Svechnikov, and plays bigger along the boards. I would compare him more to a John Leclair or Jaromir Jagr type. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You go Slafkovsky every time. He's the safest bet with the highest ceiling. Barring that you trade that back and win in other ways. Prior to moving up I could see the Devils moving the pick But now it's a line potential of Slafkovsky-Hughes-Bratt Not a chance that pick is moved Edited May 12, 2022 by Warhippy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Nico down the middle I also doubt they go with Cooley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right?I mean they could do something super ballsy and draft Savoie or another centre but likely it's Slafvkovksky. The guys in the mold of Jagr for size speed and shot. NOT JAGR, but in the build/mold of and the type of player you hope hits their stride. Hell...kind of envious of Jersey really 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks say 'no'. They can dream about Quinn hughes in their sleep. Canucks wont trade him unless it was Bedard and even then it would be tough. This draft is weak at top anyways.

Nope, unless you have Bedard up there. Hughes is a unique and special talent and has the best edgework of any NHL skaters I have seen, nevermind a defenseman. He is very valuable at his position like a Makar. You just dont trade players like that for quantity unless you are getting elite talent back and the deal is overpayment.

No salary retained. Hughes is the most skilled player in tjis deal. I still wpuld not do it at all. He has already broken many Canucks records at such a young age. Almost reminds me of a young scott niedermyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would trading Hughes make the team a lot of money unless you mean they will save money. Its completely dumb to even think about prospects of trading Hughes for magic beans. If it was Bedard, thats one thing but trading Hughes for lesser players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Canucks aren't winning so a supertar just adds money. The Canucks almost made the playoffs this year and if it wasnt for Green, they would make it and beat Oilers in the 1st round too. So your saying to rebuild again rather than fix the D by moving a couple of players? Its like building a tower but destroying it because a window frame looks crooked.

The tower’s foundation is old and failing. Patch it more and risk a full collapse. Best to carefully deconstruct and rebuild with a new and solid foundation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
