Does anyone actually see us winning the draft or for that matter hanging on to the #2 spot?
- VanHockeyGuy

As you see the preferences vary on picks. With no clear cut difference in level of talent seems Nucks will be fine at any number. Of course there will be whining for dropping. But that mattered more last year. Not this draft by all accounts.

I don't think it will be that bad , next year I would be more upset.


I think we will get Patrick


AVs Dman
Vegas Nico
Canucks Patrick

Avs are better off to draft a forward and trade duchene for a D man

Don't know what it is but I get a bad feeling about him. Not that my picks are ever close.

He is a fragile porcelain doll. No wonder you have a bad feeling about him

What about Duchene for Larsen? I heard a Flames poster comparing him to Gio earlier

I would be ecstatic if that were to happen. Obviously we don't get a vote, but I am a bit worried about hiring Green.

wouldnt that be an interesting way, fans voting on new coach.

Yeah you are probably right. Nucks seem to be keeping Green as last man standing. As in, if they don't get anyone else.

Wonder also if they want to get in a senior guy for management role. Like a Krueger or other. Then make decision or pitch on coaching candidate.

Habs looked so much better than the 1st round exit suggests. But hey only 1 can advance.

Radulov looked so very good in that series

Can't win without talent down the middle.

Basically boiled down to Lundqvist outplaying Price.

Neither can Montreal

this comment section is becoming a disaster. Sorry Carol! I've been saying for years that this fanbase can't handle the dark times that inevitably accompany a rebuild. Its disappointing we have such a fragile fanbase. Toronto and Edmonton went through this for 10 years and fans support was always there. We are only two years removed from the playoffs
- CanuckDon

Yup, totally agree.

Whenever i feel like having a rational conversation anytime over the past few years I've wandered into the oilers thread. such a rational fanbase over there.

I totality agree that our fan base is way way worst, the lack of transexual gifs in this thread kinda proves what a solid bunch they are.

I don't thunk that we're capable of being as rational as they are.

I'm assuming off course that you're talking strictly about the fans on hockey buzz? Right?

I try to not base an entire teams fanbase off a few deviants on hockey buzz

My buddies and I meet at a pub for the lottery every year, I'm the only Canucks fan

Every year they take the piss out of me, it would be nice to get those fukers back

We will get 2 or 3

I like your optimism! I have some good vibes on this one too.

Avs should go after Seabrook he could be had cheap maybe even something back

I wonder if Benning will try to replace Tryamkins size with Hague with the 33 rd pick

We will get 2 or 3

Documented, I'm going to troll your ass if we don't

Hopefully we get at least1 decent centre this draft and a decent defenseman. This team is going to take quite some time before they can legitimatelyrics compete, so we need to fill a lot of positions 1 pick at a time.
IMO the next several drafts need to focus on Centre and defense.

I have been fairly neutral when it comes to management, but things seem to be going from bad to worse with this group.

Me too! It's a painfully slow process but hopefully Benning can make some better decisions now that he's got three years as a GM under his belt.

after last year perhaps we move up this year

Can solve the PP with one guy. Zhukenov. 3 primary PP assists tonight. 3-2 OT win.
