Myrenberg could be a good Dman one day, but I am glad they didn't trade more draft picks yeah me too, Rick had me worried there. I think people have forgot about Filip Johansen and Brady Keeper, not to mention Woo. This kid was a long way off. But sure in Canucks luck fashion maybe he's the next Fox. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t a terrible trade. The RHD prospect was meh. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silly me. I think we our prospect cupboard is about 6 D short of where it should be including 4-5 rhd. We really, really, really needed more centre depth but really, really, really should be moving wingers not RHD prospects. Sadly wo ger have dirt value in today's nhl. Never draft wingers.

The point of this trade was to move DiPietro out of the organization. Period. He and his agent have asked for a trade and publicly said they were not happy. Right now the Canucks are a tire fire. This is simply getting rid of a minor problem and distraction. Nothing more. The return is irrelevant. Could have been a roll of tape. Move on. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be logging mins on a pro team is pretty good progression for a late rounder. Plus he's the lone RHD prospect we had that looked to be progressing. Would rather have given up someone else, but we'll see. Maybe he turns out to be nothing & Studnicka is a valuable player for us. Maybe they were lower on Myrenberg than other prospects, given our RHD situation I think I would've sacrificed others before him I think it shows they've been trying hard to find some fit for Mikey. We'll know if this was a mistake in 5 or 6 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forsling was a stud prospect Forsling was a 7th rounder they traded not even a year after drafting him. A little far fetched to call him a stud prospect at the time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johansson is definitely much more NHL ready, but he's also 3 years older. And here's a report from the rookie camp in August: Filip Johansson Not a lot stuck out about Filip Johansson. There were probably a couple of days where I forgot he was even there to be honest. Jonathan Myrenberg If I had to pick who the best defenceman of this camp was, I’d go with Jonathan Myrenberg. He stood out on day one with the added size that he has put on in the past year, shined with the power behind his shot, and wowed us in the scrimmage with his ability to anticipate plays in the neutral zone. He will be loaned to the Allsvenskan for the 2022-23 season and hopes to be back in the SHL for the year after that. As a 6’2″, right-shot defenceman who can move, he is very much in our crosshairs as we fast approach overseason prospect viewings. We loved the way that he was so aware of everyone on the ice during the scrimmage. He has active eyes and is constantly scanning and preparing for what to do when he gets the puck. Lots to like, he is our first star of the defence and up there with Bains as out camp standouts. I'd argue it was close. Moot point now though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They looked to find another home for him but couldn’t find much interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
