Doesn't really matter, I don't know what they are thinking anyways, even though they did pick my 15th ranked player last season at 15th.

I will speculate with my little heart though

Best D or C Swede.

I’m curious in Danielson & looking for more reports on him. A reach imo but a trade down candidate if we’re to happen. Dvorsky wouldn’t be a bad pick. Winger is a definite no.

Danielson is in that large collection of impact players in this draft.

No room, those are filled with Ana de Armas pictures!

Thinkin on the LNG. When does snow hit in your hood & does the work shut down?

With his goal today, Jonathan Lekkerimäki extended his playoff point streak to 4 games and 7 points.

He's up to 5 goals and 14 points in 13 Allsvenskan postseason games - tops among U24 skaters and 3rd overall.

Then Allvin says to Todd Harvey, “Lekkerimäki, we’ve got him at seven on our list for a reason, right? He’s a good player.”
“You guys are pounding the table for Lekkerimäki right? He’s the guy. He’s a top six scorer.”
Then Allvin picks up the phone again, and as if he’s a pitcher communicating with his catcher during a mound visit in baseball, covers his mouth and says “yeah, we’re going to pick.”
“Should be excited about this one,” an aerial shot shows Allvin saying to Harvey, both now on the draft stage.
“Oh yeah, it’s a steal,” replied Harvey. “The hardest thing to do is score goals.”

That was a Jim Benning thing to his scouts.

Gonna take some time but he’s gonna be a good pick. Todd Harvey and Cammi Granato will get two players out of their first draft together, which is a win. Lekkerimäki needs to be healthy and gain some weight.

That’s all good & we can score. Cup 1/2 full.

Cup 1/2 empty is fishing tons of pucks outta the net.

A lot like Petey had to grow through. Work on his defensive savvy & hit the weights & work on his all around game on the details. Lots of time & no rushing him 👍

Funny how that old cliche always arises & usually from those looking down lol

I rather look at who performs the best lb for lb as a truer measure. Nothing sucks more than a big cream puff who amounts to nothing more than a project.

Cannot teach the warrior spirit or the drive & go through walls when needed.

I think we were all just joking around.

Looks like Patrick Johnston beat me to the punch about Columbus being a trade partner with the Canucks. As I had mentioned this morning before reading his article.

He’s just got that high confidence mentality a lot of pro athletes have. I mean, everyone in here has it, save a few, and most of you are born losers.

His game is reminding me more and more of Jesper Bratt.

I like that as the season has gone on, he has become much more engaged along the boards. Not a big kid but at least gives guy a shove. Better than Horvat or Boeser.

Kravtsov, 23, was not only out of sync with systems and commitment, he wasn’t expected to be this much of a project.

“He has just got to understand,” said Tocchet, who even gave the winger shifts with Elias Pettersson to get his motor running.

“He has to show us he wants to play. He’s good kid, but I’m not sure he knows the work level yet.”


Classic lazy Russian!!!

When it comes from a dish pig with bad takes on hockey it seems less insulting

Harman Dayal new article in the Athletic.


“Should the #Canucks be worried about Podkolzin’s disappointing year? Especially when Boldy and Caufield have emerged as future stars?

I found NHL comparables for Podkolzin. Here’s what they say about Podkolzin’s future projection and realistic potential:”

Kravtsov, 23, was not only out of sync with systems and commitment, he wasn’t expected to be this much of a project.

“He has just got to understand,” said Tocchet, who even gave the winger shifts with Elias Pettersson to get his motor running.

He has all the support he needs in VAN, i'm sure Sergei Gonchar is telling him to play the right way. There's Russians on the team for support. He needs to drink the Kool-Aid.
