Canucks Curse Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 That Celebrini family must just be incredibly proud, they are also all lovely people, wishing them the best and congratulations on all their successes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ruilin96 Posted June 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2023 Good pick. Keep him in the organization for a few years and we can recruit his brother to join us once he is UFA. We will bring Macklin Celebrini and Connor Bedard in the 2031 off-season when the dead cap space for OEL is all gone. 2 1 1 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Warhippy Posted June 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2023 This pick makes me happy. Super happy. The family worked with or for the canucks for a while and it's so nice to have another RHD and local. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he will develop late into a depth D for us. Kinda fun Boston University with two RHD canucks Prospects and Both Celebrinis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Dog Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) Brother of the potential 1st overall pick next year. A part of a sports oriented family that has had ties to the Canucks. Will be teammates with Willinder next year. Edited June 29, 2023 by Junkyard Dog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macklin can indicate that he would be very excited to become a Canuck. Vancouver media can drum this possibility up by asking Macklin whether he may “defect”. Macklin can simply decline to answer. Other teams will get the hint and stay away from wasting their 1st round picks on Macklin. I don’t think the team will collude on this in any fashion lest the league hands down a penalty against the Canucks.

Sure, since he will likely be a 1st OA and would be in NHL at 18 that will only cost him 4 years of his prime earnings. Why would that bother him it is only what about $50M if he is a star.

A career lasts only so long and tends to end the same age no matter what age you start. Getting off ELC at 25 vs 21 will lose you 4 of the prime years of earning at a time the cap will have jumped significantly.

Coconuts Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Playing the long game to bring his brother home, smart. Thrilled to have drafted multiple RD in the first few rounds. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, I don’t really look that far ahead. Maklin Cellebrini definitely one of the top rated atm but so was Raty a year out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Macklin Celebrini were to wait an additional 3 years after this year in order to be a free agent and sign with the Canucks, then he wouldn't be eligible to play in the NHL until he was 21. So he would be signing an ELC at age 21 not 18. By the time he is eligable to make real money, he would already be 24. So, he would lose 3 years of his career at a high salary, maybe up to $8-9 million per year or more. So it could cost him upwards of $30 million to wait the extra 3 years... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 This feels like that Monkey's paw moment where we want Celebrini and they just said, "fine, here's Celebrini." Love the pick though. Didn't even realize Mack had a brother tbh. Good size, going to College. Good opportunity to bulk up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
