Yup. Still a ways to go, they're getting there. At least we get to see one or 2 possible future core guys added to the team each season. Baby step to the playoffs.

Its a bubble team. Demko might win a few extra, but this lineup is thin. Still fun to watch the young guys though, i may go to another before year end. We had a blast.

What does taking busts from years past have to do with unproven undrafted kids ? You're expert opinion in talent evaluation? You , me and every other idiot in the hockey world has no (frank)ing idea how a bunch of 18 yr old kids careers are going to unfold and you know that. So why make such stupid comments ? I thought you were supposed to be a good poster....

Don’t people have the right to change their opinion? The team looks better than anyone could have imagined in the summer 🤔
- CanuckDon

Absolutely they do...thats why I asked about it. This is a public forum for discussing ideas and opinions right?

Most of last year I wanted Tkachuck and had many debates on HB so it should not be a surprise to anyone

I am sorry that you don't understand English . I have not used the words soft, bust,weak, or bad . I said it is a draft I would not tank to go get a player . I said I will gladly take whomever we get , but go ahead and keep makinging things up Jerimiah .

I really don't get why some of you get so butt hurt about what I am thinking about a draft.

I haven't called one player on the list a bust so get your facts straight pal

For the record get your facts straight . I never said the Petey draft was soft in fact right up to two weeks before I was always promoting Glass . About two weeks before I knew they were going after Pettersson so I accepted it.

This is true.... you did however say that there are no impact players in this year's weak draft.
No stars in this draft was donna.

Again I don't know why someone who was not in the original conversation gives a fuk what Vantel thinks about a draft. When did I become the leading expert on drafts


Can you show me my post where I said is is a soft draft (exact words please)

I may be wrong but I never remember calling it soft.

- VANTEL



When Dragon appointed you the only poster that knew anything about prospects, you said no right away but now and evermore you'll be the anointed one.

I don't see the same panic as in years past. I am feeling way better about the team this year than last year.

I expect the Canucks to draft someone that will be ready in three years. It is no longer a top priority to me.

I am much more interested in the trades to follow as number 1 and then the draft then free agency.

I really do expect one big trade.

Micheal Ferland isn't on the ice with the #Canes this morning. Skated on a line with Wallmark and Teravainen yesterday. We'll soon get word on his status for tonight from the head coach.

You were pretty clear last year on your preference, certainly. Both Brady and Matthew are turning (have turned?) into impact players in the NHL. I'd be delighted have either on the 'Nucks, would be good on a line with EP40. Corners, net front, hard to play against...

I'd also be delighted to have a potential phenom like Jack Hughes. Would be difficult to pass him over for either of the T boys.

I don't remember using the exact word Weak . That is why I say show me the post. I honestly don't see players like Dahlin Matthews Laine but it certainly doesn't mean I am not wrong.

I..... agree....

Still think they need one or two big pieces to contend.

Hence my hard on for Panarin and Karlsson.

I am not disagreeing on the player .I disagree on the term . I don't think it has a chance of happening but I understand you wanting them.

You're a better man for admitting this.

I think Hughes will be better then or as good as Mathews
