I think Rangers really want Jack Hughes so I think Canucks take this one.

If a trade was possible to acquire the 1st overall I would do it. As a playoff team we don't have much of a chance to get him.

Sounds good to me.

Yeah pretty up in the air right now. Jack Hughes is a special talent. Would be really nice EP driving one line and Hughes driving another.

I thought we would be drafting top 10 this year but it is not looking like it. We will see.

I said I would wait until 20 games to see what we have . They are not playing close to a bottom feeder.

Lots of good centers this year in the top 20

Competitive every game and they are scoring goals. Biggest problem is they are letting in more than they are scoring.

Looks like Spooner slots in for Buchnevich on the first line. 90-93-23. Second and third remain same — 20-13-50, and 26-21-17, and fourth is 8-72-95. Seven D rotating in, so hard to tell if there are changes there. We talk to DQ after.

They have had a lot of injuries
They have been on the road a lot
They have been playing some top teams Bos Avs Wpg Pitt

I have 9 in my top 20

Centers are actually the least of my worries for this team. Wouldn't give up a great talent but as of right now, I like EP and Bo as 1-2 for the future. Team really needs another star winger.

Boeser is the only real top 6 winger they have right now. Lind and Dahlen have top 6 possibilities but a winger with top line projections would be nice.

Same here about kesler love but you got to give the guy credit for playing 14 years of hard hockey. Never seemed to shy away from physical play.

Wasn't Kesler traded 4 or 5 years ago?

Totally agree . I am happy with EP Bo and Gaudette. Madden is learning the game so we are not in panic mode for center. I would definitely draft a winger this year and I would also trade for another top winger.

It is nice that Jake is showing signs of being a top 6 guy.

I think I know who ASL is

yes he was. But if someone is going to compare Horvat to Kesler then I’m going to speak up.

Nothing unusual. Same every year. Got to be part of your management strategy for this team.

They seem to be handling it okay . They are first in their division.

True. Amazing what youth and depth can do for a team like Vancouver.

Filling your roster with expensive creaky veterans does not seems to be the answer. Go figure.

That was his protection against kryptonite

lol

He had 2 playoff games where he carried the team on his back. Thats about it. He hasn't really done a whole hell of a lot since. He is an elite face-off man? ish?

But... but... but... that's the only reason we're in first! If Beal hadn't hurt himself then one of the kids might have....

How many injuries do they have? I didn't think the line up could look uglier then last game. I was wrong.
