Carol Schram: Baby Canucks kick off AHL playoffs Saturday vs. Baby Leafs, draft rankings The Utica Comets have a big challenge ahead as they prepare to face the AHL's best team, the Toronto Marlies, when the playoffs begin on Saturday, plus final draft rankings from NHL Central Scouting.

Thanks Carol!
Dahlen is looking good!

Werenski is good, but saying he's better than Jones is just a joke. Only one of their names will be on the Norris list. I like the kid, but let's not get confused here Jones is the stud 1D Werenski is a very good top4.

Thanks Carol!

Got to like a kid that gets into town and goes straight to the net.

looks like johnsson, kapanen and dermott will all be back with the marlies by saturday.

Lets go Comets.

The Canucks need quality players at all positions, so I will be happy with any of the top 3 picksor Bouchard Dobson Wilde Veleno Hayton Wahlstrohm.
Defense or centres.😁

Thanks Carol!

Jones first 150 games 52 points. Werenski's first 150 games 84 points. Try not to get confused.

So they’re adding a bunch of losers?

The fact you have to refer to Jones years in Nashville where he played bottom pair tells you everything you need to know. Defensively it’s not even close, Jones is far superior. Offensively is close, but I’ll always choose the between defender.

Ya, I know. Your opinion is the only correct one. Have a good day. Agree to disagree.

Thanks Carol!

I came across an article (probably not overly accurate) that lists potential landing spots for Tavares – San Jose Sharks, St. Louis Blues, Vegas Golden Knights, Detroit Red Wings and Vancouver Canucks.

Places that Tavares won’t go – Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadiens and New York Rangers.

Personally I don't think he leaves the Islanders and if he did I don't think we would be his top choice - unless we grossly overpay.

Thoughts?

Kevin Shattenkirk 86 points in his 1st 153 games. He must be a # 1 defenseman. 🤣

Cool. Way to finish the convo with class. I’m as good as admitting I’m wrong as you and pretty much every poster on here is. Like I said, only one of these players has been on a Norris ballot, it ain’t werenski.

Does it say why he wouldn’t go to the leaves? Seems like a good fit.

Nice of you to join the convo. I never said Werenski was a number 1. I said he was close to a number 1.

I also said "Werenski, I think may actually turn out to be better then Jones". Doesn't say "is" better then Jones.

Shattenkirk never really could play defence. Werenski is pretty good in his own zone.

The article says that he might not be content waiting for an arena to be built and may not be happy with the defensive side of the team.

If those are his reasons, he won't want to play with our awful defense

We go round and round about half the players in the league. You and I have completely different opinions. It isn't worth it to talk about it anymore. You have your opinion, I have mine. We're cool.

I will jump in anytime someone always uses points as the base of their argument.
Getting points from defense is very important, if they can play defense.
Werenski is a pretty good defenseman, nowhere near Seth Jones imo.

I used the 150 games mark because Jones has played 240 more games then Werenski has. I'm pretty sure when Jones was 150 games in he wasn't as good defensively he is right now. That is why I used "may turn out to be".
