Nucker 67 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Hopefully the Canucks can make a trade this morning to get into the 2nd round. Wouldn't mind a good LW or C, with size, if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raty Not too shabby Pretty good, but I don't think that's the order with regards to NHL ceiling. I would think it would be more like: 1. Willander 2. Lekkerimaki 3. Hoglander 4. Silovs 5. Raty C is our major area of need now, so we really need Raty to take that next step this year. I think he will. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't mind a good LW or C, with size, if possible. Doesn't fully meet a specific need, but wonder if our 3rd, 4th and 6th would allow us to get an early 2nd and snag Cristall? Higher chance of Cristall making the NHL than those three picks likely. Maybe I answered my own question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So past the fist 2 or 3 picks, EVERY kid in this draft are wait and see prospects... There are NO guarantees in the draft. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are quite different prospects, OJ was best known for hockey IQ whereas Willander is best known for his skating and athleticism. Other than the top 3 picks all of these prospects have parts of their game to improve to be meaningful NHL players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobayashi Maru Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Would be nice to focus on adding a bunch of C prospects with the remaining picks, however would also be nice to add yet other D in Cam Allen, Jakub Dvorak or Arttu Karki with our 3rd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Lots of great picks in the 2nd round. Some undersized guys with upside. Perron will be a steal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt he would have made it past ~15 OA. People taking silly intent rankings WAY to seriously AND ignoring that the draft is better viewed in tiers. Willander was comfortably in that ~10-20 tier of players who could have (and did) go in any order. Edited June 29, 2023 by aGENT 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
