Something to think about - while the sample is small, Boeser is scoring goals at higher per game rate than McJesus.

Without fully knowing what our expansion list will end up being, for a brief minute, not too long ago, I was beginning to think that Bachman might warrant some consideration from LV. Last two games haven't been to swell for the guy but in his defense, he's not getting much defence. With a small sample size, his decent looking numbers probably get pummeled tonight.

When is the lottery? Seem to recall it being held in the first round of the playoffs. It's nice knowing we have a decent chance at Patrick or Hischier. Would be huge for the rebuild getting one of those two or Vilardi

They should make the lottery spin the best of 3, or 5. The more the merrier

Its shitty knowing that the chances of falling back in the draft is greater than staying put or moving up. Watch a team like Detroit win the spin. Ya just know it

In any case don't send Linden to the draft lotto this time, why not send the guy who does all the work drafting Benning.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

Two seasons in a row of bottom dwelling. Tank heaven. One can only hope the hockey gawds are kind this year. Perhaps no NHL ready pick but high end talent none the less.

Still hoping Benning moves a D before the draft and gets another pick or two. Once the draft lottery is over perhaps he can make a move. Or just after the expansion draft. Either way would like to see him get some more picks. We have SJS 4th guaranteed, long shot to be a first.

At least we didn't blow the tank by winning three in a row to end the season. Colorado doesn't deserve to be rewarded, we do!!
The only HW the Canucks need

Pat Quinn is on the board of directors with the Hockey Gods. He threw the leaves a bone last year, hopefully he helps us out this year.
