Hughes

- VANTEL


Should we flood the twitter comments with fear, uncertainty and doubt about him ever signing with Van?

Based on the comments of GM Jim Benning after round one - I think the organization has their eyes on a centre at 37

Some interesting possibilities there.

“It’s a great hockey market and they’ve got a lot of young talent coming up, I’m just thrilled right now.” – Quinn Hughes on being drafted 7th overall by #Canucks
- LeftCoaster

What was reallly interesting is he said he likes playing right as much as left. He played left in college due to an abundance of RHD

Any thoughts on Tychonik?
- Nighthawk


Seems like there will be some significantly higher ranked players available for the Nucks at #37. Although his playoff stat-line looks nice, 17 pts in 11 games.

I still think Wilde, Addison, McIsaac and Woo are D that go before him.

He either really stupidly gives TMI or really clumsily tries to mislead. Entertaining either way

I'm worried he's going to study beetles and economics for 4 years instead of a hockey career.

It's a great pick, hopefully he's as good in the NHL as he looks in college.

Listening to local radio interviews through out the day the consensus choice was Hughes. I was in favour of Dobson or Bouchard myself but we may see this kid sooner than later. Maybe not next year but most likely the year after.

Hopefully he'll eventually turn your frown upside down. I thought Dobson for sure. Who was your preference?

I'm happy. Very happy with the pick. In the states, watched the NBC feed. Which is just TSN guys. Like them but they had to trumpet the US flag everytime an american was selected.

Would be unreal if they both ended up in Van.

Start the tank.

it actually makes it easier, a team of 23 wins the Cup, not one single player. You need a collection of talent. He's just one of many things you need to win.
