I know it will break the hearts of all the people in here but I think Benning is trading down and getting a Dman .

All people talk about in here is how bad the D is then wanting to take a forward? It is too much for my old withering brain to comprehend .

Yes & No.
We need RHD & has to be a winner but a F is higher BPA @10oa unless we trade down is all. Thats been my stance.

The general feeling is nobody seems to be a consensus stand out with a real high ceiling. I’m eyeing 13-16 as possible picks to trade for.

I do not know where to begin to tell you how wrong this is. Our signed LHD have played a combined 35 NHL Games.

Sautner 22
Briesbois 8
Hughes 5
OJ 0

You think we need RHD only

Rathbone is coming.
The depth is needed on RHD.
Other than Byram no rush for LHD imo.
We have zero threat on the right side with only Woo unless JB can trade for one.

Rathbone probably has as much chance of signing with Canucks as Fox did.

I would gladly take Broberg Vlasic Cam York

Rafferty Eliot Stecher are all young and in the system .Tryamkin too I guess .

They need everything not just RHD

I think a change of scenery would be good for Virtanen. He seems awfully immature and way to comfortable in Vancouver. He needs to go to a team with good veteran leadership who will hold him accountable for his off-ice conduct. Apparently that isn’t happening here.

If Beagle and Sutter, two of the greatest roll models the league has ever known, can’t get through to Jake no one can.

None of those are scoring threats is my point. We can develop those to compliment a dynamic partner.

Playnow has draft props up for betting. For our first pick, they only list: Boldy (heavy fav), Krebs, Soderstrom, Newhook, Lavoie, Caufield, Podkolzin and Dach as options. Not even a “any other player” option. 🤨

Again if JB can acquire a RHD eg Miller then options are opened up.

Who is the scoring threat on the Left? Hughes is not a goal scorer , he is a play maker. Juolevi had 1 goal last year. Briesbois had 3 goals last year and Sautner 3 .

Hughes is a QB. Stirs the drink.
If Edler signs thats a great start.
OJ will be good depth once healthy.
Rathbone is marinading.

Also, it’s rumored that Sedin and Sedin were good leaders.

They should pitch a tv show where they’re brothers and PI’s, solving cases in the lower mainland. What to call the show though?

Depends on their skillset... I like 2 midgets from this draft - Bobby Brink & Xavier Simoneau
