Your guys prized prospect Liljegrin got completely exposed in that series to little old Utica.

what was he pointless and -6 in 5 games.

he's 18. a lot to learn. no rush for him to be the savior.

johnsson and grundstrom sure looked good though

You have to have fast skaters that can move the puck first.

Next year is going to be interesting . With the Sedins gone the team will be faster but at the same time puck possession will probably take a hit. It will be fun to see a faster team but they will miss the offense

Google and usually mynhldraft.com has lots of previous rankings for previous years.

And the same for our prospects. Ability to play in Europe & slide is good. Same as the CHL. Utica will be stocked better next year.

That was a high lite of that series. My favourite part was how they turned it into a 7 games series only to suffer a crushing and humiliating defeat.
All of the crying and then the turning on Matthews was a lot of fun, too.

Yeah but going anywhere makes him feel better about himself.

No, I meant game 7. The game the Leafs lost. That game.

Just watching Pit-Wsh...... were Kessel's parents garden gnomes? Seriously....that is scary.

Unfair question. All three are. It's him and two of his alternative profiles\avatars.

7th pick is gonna be a good one

Calling it now. Kotkaniemi will go in the top 7

As much as we all want Wahlly Kookoo or Chucky someone pointed out yesterday , top D ar e not moved , you need to draft them .

I am fine with being lured into fixing the scoring but we eventually do need to deal with D.

Clearly.
I think this is pretty pressing actually.
I'd rather have a bunch of 10-15g scorers (and Boesser with 40g) and focus on drafting D.
Seems easy to uncover a forward or 2 that can score. D should be the priority.

the best defence in Canucks history is arguably the 2011 bunch and out of the top D , 2 were drafted in the 2nd round or later (edler,bieksa) , 3 were trades(salo,erhoff,ballard) , 3 more were free agent signings(tanev,rome,alberts) plus some less used guys that drafted and aquired as fill ins in minor trades, so my point is a defense can be built other ways then just picking at the top of the draft

We seen teams like the Leafs and Islanders deal with only forwards , you don't go very far.
