You may have a million dollar idea there





We have a trade to announce

On the bright side... nevermind, there isn't one.

You can look forward to our 2 seconds.................. In the worst draft since 99

- CanuckDon

Don here for damage control

Elias had .12 PPG higher than nylander in his draft year. Discuss

"Yes sorry son , you are coming to Vancouver"

Yeah, Heponiemi just doesn't feel like a Jimbo pick to me after he already took Pettersson. But I'd be stoked if they drafted him.

Yup a 140lbs centerman, just what this team needs

Both swedes are soft as (frank)

165 pounds 5th overall pick is what we need then? Just using your logic here..

he's 150 pounds btw..so only 15 less than our 5th overall pick...

On if Kostin (31st pick) interested #Canucks, Benning referenced Tryamkin: "Would have been probably tough to take another Russian so high."

Ryan Biech (@ryanbiech)
GM Jim Benning mentions that they are probably leaning towards a forward with 33rd overall

Blackhawks select Henri Jokiharju at 29th overall - someone that the Canucks had interest in for 33rd.




fuuuuuucccckkkkkkk

I (frank)ing hate Chicago again

Someone said there was no difference from pick 5-50. So looks like we will be getting a couple more lottery picks.

I know... POS MFers....Joki was the guy

I guess I would have been more upset with JB taking a D instead of a Petterson at 5. One of the most skilled players in the draft...so...

Pickings might be slim at 55 for a D but hard not to talk one of the forwards left at 33... specially some of the larger kids available...

D next year better options. We needed a succession plan to Hanks leaving . Hopefully now we have somethings

I've gone to Woodford Reserve Double Oaked and water, in 20 mins I won't care.
- A_SteamingLombardi

I honestly don't believe the Leafs will hold onto the pick...
- boonerbuck

Thank God they did.

Nice pick by you guys. Should be a good one.

Roll on to day 2.

Night all

Yeah all the good D off the board so for 33 & 55 would like any of Hepo, Ratcliffe, Lind and Mattheos.

3rd round go for Salo and Gadjovich.

Thank God they did.

Benning: "I would think we could (have a defenseman at the end of the 2nd round). At 33, we're taking the best player available." #Canucks

Benning strikes me as nighthawk type. I bet he has a 2019 lineup posted in his office with 5+ prospects in it.
