He also can’t defend and makes too many individualistic plays.

Basically he’s not a team player, only cares about his own point totals.

i would take him in 2nd or 3rd round, maturity can help with that kind of stuff. His skills cant be denied though, if he matures and figures it out(sometimes a first rounder dropping to 2nd/3rd round is a wake-up call) he will be a really good player someday. Perfect example of high risk high reward.

I think JB is just fishing.
Putting out feelers and if he thinks he can move up or down and get a guy he likes, he will.

I think he'll end up drafting a 'real good' player at 7th OA.

Yep, after the perceived blowing it last year with the trading down to get Petterson and extra pick from Vegas, I think it is all a smokescreen

I would with our 3rd, not 2nd. I like the risk but since our 2nd is too high with other players potentially there.

I doubt he makes it to the 3rd round, but I tend to agree, but if we could drop from 37 to say 50 and get an extra 3rd and take him at 50 I would do that.

I wouldn't doubt that if he makes it to one of the NYR late picks they take him. 3 first round picks, they have the chance to miss on him.

Depends who is there still. 37 is a good pick. Using the Army, there is a shot at KA Miller, Jared McIsaac, plus I like Jacob Olofsson for a center pick.

If we take D at 7oa then a C at 37 is fine, but I think Miller and McIssac go 1st round.

I doubt they make it far enough into the 2nd round for Van to pick them either. Jonny Tychonick still be there. RHD and LHD first two rounds.

I think Miller could sneak into the top 20. No chance he falls to 37

I wouldnt mind one of

Dobson
Bouchard
Wahlstrom
Jesperi
Boqvist

in that order and then Jonny Tychonick in the 2nd. I have also seen some where Jett Woo drops a bit, maybe we can move up for Woo.

Skeptical. I would fear he's more Armia then Rantanen or JP. I don't see the individual skill that the latter had.

You are always a good barometer of when events like the draft, July 1st, and the TDL are coming. You show signs of stress early and will continue to bend to near breaking point until the day passes.

Bouchard and Boqvist.

Trade down.

- boonerbuck


The only ones with top pairing potential? You need to play less safe...

If bouchard learns to skate he could be that guy.
If boqvist doesn't get 5 more concussions he could be that guy

If Canucksarmy is even close.

Noah Dobson at 12, Joe Veleno at 13.

#17 BARRETT HAYTON
#18 RASMUS KUPARI
#19 RYAN MCLEOD
#20 JONATAN BERGGREN
#21 VITALI KRAVTSOV
#24 DOMINIK BOKK
#25 SERRON NOEL
#28 JAKE WISE
#29 BODE WILDE

I would rather be picking from 12-20 and another 1st then in the top 10 according to their players. Unless it's a top 3 pick.

- manvanfan


It's based on ceiling potential, which is why Dobson is rated in the teens. He's more likely to be a top 4 then the other 3, but he's much less likely to be a top 2.
