Don't worry about the 2nd round. Canucks are set.

Gonna take years to recover from Benning, I’m not worried. This ain’t a two day fix.

Looks like a total douche.

Arrogance in spades. Players will remember that so he better back up his cockiness.

Benning got nothing from TWO 5th OVERALL picks, this kid at #15 has upside, let it play out.

what’s the over/under on Joulevi playing 100 nhl games?

I would probably label him the biggest bust in Canucks history.

I think most know that but just don't want to admit it.

Chicago doing a complete re-build, do they get rid of Jones after making a splash to get him?

Asked about whether there were trade talks between the Islanders and the Canucks today, Lou Lamoriello demurred from any kind of trade talk and simply told
@KKurzNHL
: "Talk to Vancouver."

“Bill Armstrong did some wheeling and dealing and the team walks away with Logan Cooley, Conor Geekie, and Maveric Lamoureux as future Coyotes. Definitely a good start, and we'll be back for Day 2 tomorrow”


What a beautiful day for the Coyotes franchise and our rebuild

I just feel that we've done this song and dance before with Gillis and then Benning being all excited to grab a player that slid down the board by other teams who had issues with the player's size, skill, IQ or personal life and inevitably they either bust or turn into farm fodder.

I've never been an advocate of straight grabbing BPA, just because there's never a guarantee you can trade your surplus for your areas of need.

Not at all, just that he’s a professional who should know these things, while you’re an amateur who was unaware. He literally gets paid to know this.

That’s a strange turn of events. Not sure. What do they do with him, Kane and Toews now?

I guess we’ll have to wait and see how it unfolds, won’t we.

Skating

Lekkerimäki is an elite skater with solid lateral mobility. He uses a low centre of mass when taking his strides that enables him to combine high straight-line speed with manoeuvrability. He also has the balance to quickly transfer his weight from one side to another, which he uses to deceive defenders. His mobility is integral to his shooting efficiency, where he agilely moves into position to release his one-timer.
