I want Adrian Kempe. Think he's being underrated by everyone except Craig Button (go figure )

Because he's Swedish? I haven't watched him or read much about him yet but I'd never write someone off just because they were born from a specific country.

Have you watched Jared McCann and Brandon Perlini play much? I've read lots of positive things about them without not many negatives.

No Cedarholm is Swedish , I been tooting his horn ( any perverted comments and I will pay Yeti to ban you for a year. )


I just don't want to go off the board again , hire someone that has a high rating to succeed.

Just trying to fit in, pretty much all of the trades offered he would easily get rejected(even the serious ones).

Youngest player in the draft. Great size. Heavy hitter. Determined & tenacious forechecker who's known for finishing every check. Battles hard in the corners & in front of the net. Heavy shot with dangerous release. Swift skater. Leaves it all out on the ice.

Kempe isn't really that off of the board. He's around the 15ish range and the Canucks will be picking around 10th. It's pretty wide open after the first 8 or 9 if you look at mocks and rankings on various sites.

Sounds promising. What about his speed and IQ?

Taller, faster & more skilled than Downie.

There are a couple guys I like in the 10-12 range

Josh Ho Sang
Nick Ritchie
Perlini

Toskela is better than Luongo.

His hockey IQ is apparently great in all zones. Great skater too.

- Nucker101

Look at the standings. Games in hand and canucks remaining games. I'd be shocked if we pick lower then 8th

Means nothing. Hed be higher if he was stacking points against junior players instead of playing in the SEL.

Ritchie kinda scares me, I feel like he could just be a big kid with inflated offensive production since he's bigger and stronger than 90% of the competition. Of course he has skill, but I think he's too risky there. I'd feel better taking Perlini or McCann over him.

That guy was crazy. I'm positive he wrecked at least one computer screen a day

Just my opinion but I'll rake both Ritchie and Ho Sang over them 2

I know little about him but I remember another Swede named Rodin who was touted in the SEL. Until they are competing against NA players I can't really say. We have a chance to pick top 8 and I. Don't like going after someone ranked 23 rd sorry ,won't be sold.

- Bieksa#3

I don't know man, Torts is coaching for his job and is a good motivator and these guys have shown too have pride.


Ehlers is who I want and picking 8th would give us some hope of landing him. I'll dig up some tweets about him:

Shots per game as a 17 year old in the QMJHL: MacKinnon 4.57, Drouin 3.53, Huberdeau 3.02........ Nikolaj Ehlers 4.49. @coreypronman

Ryan Kennedy ‏@THNRyanKennedy

Talking to scouts today about Halifax's Nikolaj Ehlers; looking like a top-15 pick. One said "I don't want to compare him to Drouin, but..."
