This is speculation only . Benning is getting raked over the coals over a deal that has not happened and that no one knows what the final deal looks like

Benning has repeatedly tried to acquire Lucic, had he not previously, I wouldn't give as much credence to this rumour.

Many here seem to want him so I’ll go along with that. The cost though?

That is part of dissecting trade roomers on a hockey forum. There is a roomer and we speculate "why the f*ck would they do that?". Same as "why would they draft that player?" Then we pretend to know who they are learning towards. Like you do when you say they are going to draft a defenseman.

I have said many times on here I have no idea who they will draft and I speculate only . I want a Dman but I don't call Benning a fuken idiot because there is a chance he might draft a forward.

For a few years now i’ve said we need RHD & draft them. It hasn’t panned out nor been opportunistic in the drafts of late. We did get Woo later. We do need a dynamic RHD for the obvious reasons. Still it looks like a F will drop to us & if we trade down then it’s to take a RHD. I’m good either way but it has to be homerun at the end of the day. Later picks look to be good for RHD.

I'll post my guess a day before the draft, for me it's in between about 4-5 players now.

I’m really feeling good about who falls to us to choose from. I got why Kotkaniemi went 3rd to the Habs & Hayton to the Yotes. Quite possible another so called reach or more for need could happen before we pick. After the top 3 are gone it’s a crapshoot on a deep draft. Possibly teams will trade to jockey around for 1st rounders. It seems to happen every draft but to what degree this draft idk. Just a guess.

selfishly speaking, Krebs injury is probably the best thing to happen for the Canucks from a draft perspective.

Better for teams picking after us if they are very bullish on him. I don’t have him before or now in the top 10. I can see picks 12-20 being a ton of fun on who goes where. 21 & later also being a deep draft. The 2nd rounds & on is what will really get my interest in who the JB’s take. BTW tics for day 2 rounds 2-7 are very cheap & day 1 very not lol

i guess its just a different of opinion on where you ranked him before. I had him going before 10, and im obviously not a doctor, but im hearing that his specific injury will only keep him out this summer and he should be ready for training camp. I think if teams were hesitant on him from 4-10, might be a little more hesitant now, which works out in our favor if the Canucks really like him.

My pick at 10oa is pretty fluid without knowing who is gone before us. Fingers crossed we get a gem to fall.
