Thanks Carol! Enjoy the draft!

A rookie dman who’s going to score 20 goals and 50 points? I think not my friend.

Would love it, but there will be a lot of competition

I know. Just (frank)ing around. But as posted in last thread, a PP of QH, EP, and BB is an exciting proposition if they click.

And if I see Edlers ass anywhere near the first unit PP I’ll lose it.

Perfect contract. I feel like this was the ideal one for many of us, but surely some haters will leak in.

Suck it haters!

If JB does well in this draft then all my anger will need to be redirected.

There’s no wrath or fury like that of a bloated mosquito.

Settle down sally, it will be edler and hughes in the back on pp1. We can’t have have 50 shg’s against and quinny is a riverboat gambler.

Stop. There are no haters in here. Some of us are frustrated with the lack of progress, and rightfully so. None of us want to see our team fail. Do a good job and you’ll be recognized.

I would absolutely LOVE IT if JB stepped aside and announced that the Canucks' new captain for our 50th anniversary, BO HORVAT, will come up to make the selection!

For once in my HB life I want to be overly optimistic about a prospects impact and I’m called a sally. Nice.

And you’re the one who’s always female doging about the haters. Which is it fella? What kind of fan do you want us all to be?

two pass-first lefties manning the points? yuck


It should be Pettersson, Boeser, Horvat(net front), Hughes and ideally another right handed shooter.

Haha im just joking. Im talking about JB haters, an there are plenty. Edler will be on the pp and that’s a good thing. Glad you’re optimistic but lighten up.

Good signing by Benning.

Neem and bloated need to get a room.

Unless we get Myers, it will be quinn everywhere he wants and edler on the point. That’s my prediction. Quinn doesnt really play point, he plays all over the place. You need a solid defender back there imo.

He can be on the 2nd unit maybe, even there I prefer Hutton/Stecher since they can stickhandle and walk the line better than Edler, Edler is too stagnant on his skates and slow with the puck on his stick back there at times, that's why a poop load of his shots get blocked and lead to SH chances against.

He just doesn't look fluid on the PP.

Still too many lefties, and that would make it easy for PK's to focus on Brock/EP as shooters. Replace Edler with a righty that can shoot and it would open things up for everyone.

Edler looks like the goddamn DMV sloths from Zootopia processing what’s happening on the PP.

Congrats to Pettersson. I think if awards were for regular season & playoffs, Binnington has an argument. But Pettersson 100% deserved it for the regular season, and it's nice to see they didn't screw this one up.

Can't hate on JB as much anymore so got to find a new target. Like a heat seeking missile that can't find the heat.

I laugh about that whole Boeser vs Edler Conspiracy. Edler just sucks on the PP. No offensive vision whatsoever.

Just came across a new write up on one of my favs in this draft for those who are unfamiliar with Bobby Brink.
