Dude I've been copying and pasting several. Links don't have same effect.

Greenway is a poor man's Tuch not worth a top 10 in any draft.

- NuckUp

This draft he is imo. 6’6” 225lbs & actually hits just what we need. Stood out against us last playoffs. Already developed & will get better & can add good scoring. Perfect middle 6 & plays either wing.

OEL isn’t top D & is not what we need.

9oa to take on a huge contract is suicide.

2022 the D can be further improved after contracts expire even with resigning players.

Woo could be ready or another year away still.

I'd rather they go after Hamilton and Jones (prior scenarios posted) but what if they don't want to sign. Why added OEL and Larsson fall back.

What's suicide is wasting assets and cap on middle/bottom six players. Canucks need top D and 1 top line forward. They can fix middle six with JTM and Podz at no cost.

This draft isn’t that great imo. So the 9oa traded for whom? I would want young & cheap vs taking on any sizeable contract.

Then again I’m quite ok keeping the pick.
So many other dominos to fall this offseason & the next. JB’s 1st serious move gives me more info to proceed.

Anybody that thinks Ferraro knows what he is talking about is probably not that intelligent.

What he said there is a joke. The best part is him cherry picking his way to make himself sound smart.

Nicolas Roy is 24 year old with 25 career points.

A question for all of you, I am the goalie and and make a pad save, the puck is retrieved by my teammate, who then passes to another payer and that player scores a goal, the goalie gets an assist, why?
The same goalie makes a save, while on a delayed penalty, the whistle is not blown, why?
If it is based on possession, then 1 doesn't match the other, for what is being deemed possession.

Hands down it's goons. They are also the most fun to party with.

Not true, in my day the goalie was always the fat kid that took up more net than everyone else.

Goalie making a save would be pretty much the same as a touch pass? A deflection?

JB needs to draft in the first round this year after not drafting in the first round last year. Same goes for the 2nd round.

I don't know why this happens, but years ago, when I officiated, I considered a save as possesion, so whistle blew on delayed penalty, assist for goalie if he was 3rd person to play they puck and no assists on rebound goals.😁

A month away from the draft now. A look at what Van might be picking according to some other people's rankings.

Mckeen's - Chaz Lucius at 9oa. - I don't like this player at this spot.

Matt Zator hockey writers - Kent Johnson - would be good pick

Scott Wheeler Athletic - Cole Sillinger - works for 9oa

Sportsnet Sam - Mason McTavish - a little high for 9oa but wouldn't haaatte it.

Ryan Kennedy SI - Mason McTavish - look above.

Button TSN - Jesper Wallstadt - if it happened wouldn't complain, no praise either.

ISS - Matthew Beniers - very okay with that selection

Smaht scouting - Fyodor Svechkov - I would hope Van traded down out of 9 to get him

Tyson Quibell Philly blogger - Jesper Wallstadt

Mynhldraft - Kent Johnson

Draft analyst - Mason McTavish

Josh Bell sporting news - Kent Johnson

9oa on Manvanfan rankings - Simon Edvinsson - Would forever be happy and disappointed at the same time with this pick.

Easy to call the shots when you’ve never been in the fire. There’s a reason why he’s a tv commentator and Benning has been in scouting/management for decades.

For penalty, possession the rule change in the NHL a few years ago. Can't just poke at a puck anymore and it be possession, same as the goalie making a save, it's just hitting him. Need to have a bit of control of the puck.

I'm not sure on how exactly assists are given in the NHL. Last 3 players before the puck goes in is what I gather.

Goalies should just stop the puck and shut their fu*cking holes...literally...

No to Hamilton. No to OEL. We have Hughes.
