I would think Pronman is measuring it against what you have to begin with in picks. There's absolutely no way if you're basing it off of a level playing field at the start we did 6th best.

Still...Pronman typically values undersized late birthday prospects. Very surprising he gave us a good rating

The hockey world awaits in anticipation of the wonders he's sure to provide.

What's really fun about trolling is when you go into another thread to do it and then realize your pick is far worse.

Not even worth the effort today since you don't have any clue what you are talking about. But keep on doing you, maybe you will catch on 1 day

haha you stink at the troll game if you think Jost is a bad pick.

Ranked 11 by McKenzie, Ranked 9 by ISS Hockey, etc etc....taken at 10th overall. Yeah that was a Jankowski joke pick.

You might figure it out one day, i have faith in ya little buddy

Jost was a product of Fabbro and some solid line mates in Penticton and a t the U18's. He certainly wasn't driving the play

It's a very solid pick.

Once his skating improves he will be amazing. Everyone at the combine was super impressed by him.

Plus I hope he does well, as he is going to our prospect Boeser's centerman

It's a very risky pick. He has well below elite level skills but gets to the right areas. He's also playing in a league that's a cut below.....

ohhh ok, so the fact that he played exceptionally well, Captain of the Canada U18 team, and had the 7th best Seal adjusted scoring in the draft...yup red flags. Bust, risky pick, Jankowski level waste of a 1st round pick

Thanks tips, ill forward them onto the Avs fan base

I was in Helsinki for the WJC. I went to several of Finland's games, including the final.
Worst player on the ice was Juolevi. He was burned on three Russian breakouts that turned into breakaways when they went around him. They scored on two. In overtime, he was starting, I could not believe it, 4 on 4 and they were starting the slow footed Juolevi. sure enough he got burned again. If not for Fin24 it wouldn't have lasted more than one or two of Juolevi's shifts. He is sure to be a decent 3 to 6 but never a 1 or 2.
3 to 6 you get in the second or third round, not the first!

And yet a bunch of scouts think he's the top D in his draft year. Weird how your keen perception caught all this when nobody else did. I think you need to send your resume to NHL teams because your talents are being wasted on a hockey blog.

what? Are you talking about Jost?
If you think that pick is a Jankowski type pick you are crazy man

Have seen him play lots. Good prospect. Sorry trolls.

Jankowski should never be said in the same sentence as Jost
Thats the one that killed me. You drafted a player who was ranked in the 10th spot at 10th...you idiots

He's real good. It's a red flag picking someone out of the BCHL in the top half of the first round....enough said.

Jankowski is average at best

But our pick is solid. Juolevi wasn't ranked 10th.

Its still a respectable league, but its Junior B so you take it with a grain of salt, and he only played there so he could go the NCAA route. He was drafted 7th overall by Everett in the WHL Bantam draft. Hes not some high school kid that put up huge points.

The pick the Flames had a few years ago, they traded down to take a 2nd/3rd round ranked player who played high school in the 1st round.

Golf compared Jost to that level of a pick

I have watched him dominate for pretty well every Vee's game. Good prospect. Who cares what a troll who knows sfa about the player or team thinks?

I didn't even come in here to troll, just showing a funny Benning Simpsons Gif about the canucks. But Golf is a little sensitive and has been pushing this hot take of Jost is a bust. Its entertaining me
