If we don’t make the playoffs you get your 2020 lottery pick
I’d love a top 5 pick next year. It’s a great draft.

It’s an ok draft In the top 5 regarding the 2 Canadians, 2 Swedes and 1 Finn but after that it’s meh. Certainly nowhere near the 2015 draft

Yeah sure, the top 5 looks good. The rest? Meh

Scouts have said it’s easily th best since 2015. But I guesss we should listen to a 50 something year old drunken, bitter drywaller that thinks Tyler Myers is our saviour.

A year before their draft day - Jack Wise (your favourite), Joe Veleno and Jared McIsaac were considered the top 3 prospects of their class.

This has nothing to do with anything I posted. I’ll take the word of scouts and analysts over a guy who’s never worn a pair of skates.

And they were never ever on a level with Raymond, Lafreniere or Byfield. Scouts and analysts who actually do this for a living have called it an excellent draft but I’m sure you’d know better with all your experience.

But congrats on dragging another thread into the ditch. :thumbs:

A lot changes in a year between 17 years of age and 18 years of age. I’ve seen this too many times before to start claiming the 2020 draft as good as the 2015

It’s a great top 10 and a very deep draft. Was another thread really necessary?

In my esteemed opinion you can be assured in that the Canucks will be nowhere in the vicinity of drafting in the top 10

But would you feel the same if pettersson misses large portions of the season?
