Carol Schram: The Canucks' 1st-round pick, Judd Brackett, playoff points & new additions? The Vancouver Canucks have now clarified that the team will indeed be parting ways with Amateur Scouting Director Judd Bracket when his contract expires on June 30, and the NHL has clarified what will happen with the first-round draft pick that's owed to the New Jersey Devils. But will teams be able to add new signings from college and Europe to their playoff rosters? The NHLPA thinks they should.

Thanks Carol,

Kaprizov joining the wild would make for a pretty interesting series. He's got the potential to impact his team like Panarin and Kuznetsov have recently.

Sincerely hope they beat the Wild in the “play-in” because rewarding the guys for a break through season with a round of playoffs is more important imo than the pick right now.

Let’s hope he needs awhile to transition to NA, he can be good next season

Do you see us beating Minny? Not sure I see it. Agree PO's would be better but #teamwhiner would be happy keeping the pick lol

Not sure our record vs Minny has been great over the last while before the shutdowns...

Good work Carol.

I would love to see what Hoglander can bring. It might make a difference making a current forward expendable .

Hub cities in the States will be interesting with all that is going on.

As far as sports go I see no reason for arenas with no fans. Look at Twitter from yesterday and see how much people care about social distancing. Vancouver is meeting tonight at 5 pm at the art gallery . No need for 14 day Quarantine either I guess.

Brackett did an excellent job here but I suspect Canucks will still draft very well.

The Canucks have a middle of the pack team regarding age but their best players are all young, Minnesota on the other hand is one of the older teams I think, just hoping they can’t find their legs fast enough.

Minny is a tough opponent, adding kaprisov would be not good. I think we’ve got a great shot, that’s the beauty of big games: it’s separates the men from the boys.

The season will have been interrupted for 3+ months once play resumes. I'd say anybody has a shot, especially if they've stayed in shape.

Anyone else think the play-in teams have a bit of an advantage? You play a 4-5 game series to start and should have your legs by the 2nd round starting on the road.

The other 8 teams are suppose to play against each other to see how they rank for home advantage I think. Unless they changed it.

it's actually a best case scenario for Vancouver.
They get that 1st 'playoff like atmosphere' vs Minny and if they lose they still get a chance to move up in the draft.

The Lamestream Media is doing everything within their power to foment hatred and anarchy. As long as everybody understands what they are doing, that they are FAKE NEWS and truly bad people with a sick agenda, we can easily work through them to GREATNESS!

I wonder how much of a "playoff-like atmosphere" there is going to be without fans? 80% of the energy of the playoffs is feeding off the home crowd.

Good question.
I wonder if the whistles will be put away as well?

Like to sign Rathbone & see him play. Also wondering if Pod can break his KHL contract.
