Purely out of bordom...

In light of the Lou to Toronto rumors here's how their major Forward prospects are looking.

Kadri- 23gp-6g-15a-21pts- +6
Frattin-11gp-7g-4a-11pts- -6
Ashton-22gp-5g-2a-7pts + 6
Colborne- 20gp-1g-5a-6pts +3

In terms of our needs in relation to our wants who would y'all want back.

Rielly, 1st, + any two of those forward prospects might get it done.

Canucks might have to add a 2nd rounder.

An interesting note, Justin Schultz has never even been invited to a Junior camp.

I like.

Not a big fan of the rumored return of Bozak.
Could see him turning out to be a Wellwood like thirdliner, not enough grit in my opinion.

You want Carter Ashton! Apparently Junior/AHL stats mean absolutely nothing when it comes to big gritty forward prospects. Just look at Kassian for example - his stats suck, but he's apparently very likely to be the next Lucic. With Ashton, you'll have 2 Lucic's.

You're talking about a fan base who thinks Corrado will be in the mix for the 2018 olympics.

Actually, you'll have to add a 3rd rounder since you'll be taking back Bozak+Komisarek.

Than you can trade Corrado for Crosby.

At the pace he's at Corrado will not only be playing, but he'll be in charge of the selection committee. Bookmark that!

He's going to be the next Bertuzzi. And Janssen the next Naslund, according to a few Nucks fans.

He'll be captain.

And will take every single medal... Just because. He'll also compete in many different sports, and win them all.

Canada's going with experience, speed, and skill... should be gold as long as Subban doesn't suck.

Subban should be the starting goalie for the team.

Sounds like it's just a matter of time before he's starring in Dos Equis commercials.

5 years ago, I guess. The year Carey Price won MVP and Toews was our leading scorer with 7 pts in 6 games.

For sure... MacKinnon is an incredibly talented hockey player.. same as Drouin. These two deserve to be on the team and will no doubt put up some nice numbers.
