It was May 10th last year for the 2022 draft. and just for fun... took about 10 trys. we got 2nd three times before then though.. I would gladly take 2nd if that was the case come draft time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benning had only Bo and a couple of other pieces. The cupboards were bare. Gillis had a core built from Nonis and Burke. In the end every Vancouver GM has had flaws. Quinn would trade, Nonis could draft, Benning sort of could draft but couldn't manage a team or cap or get the right mix. Gillis made some moves, but couldn't draft. (Bo exception) Gillis also used NMC's like no tomorrow. But he could handle the cap. I don't think you followed the conversation very well. Is 9/10 "similar" to 1/10? Re-read what Alf said and my response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RolexSub Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Down 4-2 and I was pretty happy until we tied the game up. What are you guys thinking!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-23 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Benson looking good rn. 2nd in WHL scoring. Just keep it within that bottom 5-6 range and lower. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was ever a time to "tank"....a "one-off", that time is now, we're so close to the bottom already anyway, within 4 points of 3rd last CHI. No more "next best things", or "consolation prizes"....I don't want Fantilli, Carlsson, or even the Russky...I want BEDARD. It would be like dying a thousand deaths to watch this guy play on another team for the next 11 years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benson is a very good consolation prize imo. I would be very happy with him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watermelon Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 if canucks lose tonight and sharks win, we'll be one point away from dropping to 4th last and four points away from 3rd last 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted February 24, 2023 Author Share Posted February 24, 2023 Our schedule is so easy we may need to be really terrible and have some good luck to just hold our current position drafting 5-6th. I am really hoping we move into top 3, still a decent chance to drop to 4th pick there… but also a decent chance to move up to 1-2. I don’t think we will get there but #2 means we are likely to pick in the top 3 and secure one of those really elite guys. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 3 is attainable, 4th even more so. This message brought to you by: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted February 26, 2023 Author Share Posted February 26, 2023 Wow, another perfect night for the tank! We lose. Columbus and Anaheim win… Blackhawks and Sharks have a 3 point game. Those two recent comebacks could end up looming large in the final standings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldFaithfulCap Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Columbus is going to hard to catch. I worry that we're going to leave the 2-5 group and ascend into the next 6-10 or higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
