RJ needs to call up Stevie Y and get a 3 way trade going with Minnesota. He will be desperate to get a top 6 C back for Larkin and we can sell them a Pettersson or Rossi and pick up these Stramel, Yurov, 1st or whatever in return
@Sean_B_taketwo I want to see the canucks prioritize players with compete. Every canucks legend we look up to had this and overcame limitations to become great. Unfortunately the player who showed his great compete level at the combine won't be available past 1st overall but there are others...
@CRgypsy31 Agreed, If you have 3 guys the Same rating one W, one C and one D, then juat thake the C. but if a winger is the BPA regardless of position, we shouldn't pass on him because there is a center available.
@CRgypsy31 There is skepticism that Malholtra is a top 3 talent in the draft. I want the canucks to create a pure talent list and take BPA at 3. If it is Caleb, awesome. If it isn't, awesome. Just pick BPA.
@CRgypsy31 I think people are worried the Canucks are picking for positional need over best player and these questions are trying to explain that. I hope the Canucks look at their team, realise they dont have enough at any position and take the best player. 1/
@CanucksHouse@sekeresandprice Even if a winger isn't there at 3, is a 2nd line centre worth more than a top pairing defenceman? With all this Caleb/Ivar discourse, we are forgetting how good this draft is for defencemen.
Do you think Chicago and Columbus regret passing on the near consensus top 2 ranked highly skilled winger Demidov?
Result:
2 - CHI - Levshunov - 6'2" RHD
4 - CBJ - Lindstrom - 6'3" C
Unless Malholtra is viewed as a PPG 2-way 1st Line Centre, #Canucks should not pass on Stenberg
@ThomasDrance Listened to your Halbro hit about 3 2nd tier bets. Honest question, does Carels 35 in 60 in his D-1 count as a history of a scoring profile? I understand Caleb's BCHL is different but is this 0.5 PPG to 1+PPG jump a normal elite scoring profile?
@lemonlespa85012@Sean_B_taketwo@cknnr17 No denying itll need to be a big add. I think Vancouver should be ok with it cause Hronek will be in his mid 30s by the time Vancouver is ready but if I'm SJ, I would second guess passing a Stenberg level player to the Canucks
@CRgypsy31 Or closer to a Mikko Koivu than a Jonathan Toews. You would have to be confident in the ceiling and probability of hitting it if you are going to pass on Ivar for Caleb
