I hope Hughes doesn't contract it... Isn't he home in Michigan?
- Retinalz

The red states will go back to open, the blue ones will stay locked down

Was he not physical? I seem to remember him ragdolling a few guys
- neem55

No.

So glad they felt what's his face would help the team more. Guaranteed if Yzerman was the GM they take Hughes.

Zadina was ranked higher in every draft ranking, not really that big of a surprise when you consider best players available motto.

If teams knew how good Q. Hughes would be he'd have gone 1st, 2nd or 3rd overall.

No.

Hayden and Koktaniemi were the reaches that made it all possible, thank jebus for bad GM’s!

Probably 2nd, Dahlin is probably the better all-around defenceman. Still good news for us!

Yep, Arizona and Montreal drafted for position but Quinn Hughes was ranked between 5-10 on most drafts, but as high as 3rd overall on a few.

Me and Makita knew he was as good as Bobby Orr

Yeah he's arguably at the top of the draft, that said, all three of Rasmus Dahlin, Andrei Svechnikov and Quinn Hughes are fantastic players.

You ask Makita we were talking about his Bobby Orr skills month before the draft

- Pacificgem

Ya he and svech are a toss up for 2... he’s turning into a beast but i have no idea what the upper limit of either player is though, too close to call! Dahlin is going to be the best dman in the league, already in my top 10.

We really need some of you to get back to work.

Some really encouraging news:

Looks like May we start returning back to some normality. I think everyone will be cautiously relieved.

The one against Kruger might be considered a hard hit if you are a pacifist. The rest were .

Went for a drive and the 1040 had Tom Larcheid on. He was asked who had the better team 1994 or 2011 Canucks.

Pretty well without hesitating he went 94 . Said the 11 team was skilled but soft.

The 1994 team was tough but not particularly skilled outside of Bure, the 2011 team was highly skilled but not really physically tough...for each era the 2011 team had a much better chance at a Cup, they were a much better team than even Boston but injuries played a huge part in them not winning game seven.

Tommy's like everyone else, just has his own opinion.

I wanted Zadina, but Hughes was a nice consolation prize!

He's just ok

Zadina had 15 points in 28 games this season, kids highly skilled, he'll be a good pick for them.

I think the '94 team had a better chance. Games were much closer.
Rangers - 21 goals
Canucks - 19 goals

Bruins - 23 goals
Canucks - 8 goals

The Canucks got their a$$ handed to them in '11.

When Arizona went off the board (Mtl was long rumored to take Cock) I was sure Detroit would take Hughes and we would get Zadina. I was a little disappointed, but now I think it worked out the best for the Canucks. Kid is amazeballs.
