We are going to pick a Dman. Then we can trade some D prospects for a centre

[Chef Boi RD]

Peculiar that Smith and Eklund are still available. If Eklund is there you take him. Yeah, shut up, Mëds.

ESPN Mock draft:

15. Vancouver Canucks
Braeden Cootes, F, Seattle (WHL)

In what is probably the worst-kept secret in the hockey world, Vancouver is after a center. The Canucks took Cootes to dinner at the combine, have scouted him heavily throughout the season and were very impressed by how he handled himself throughout the combine process. Jack Nesbitt could find himself here because the Canucks love their centers with size, but Cootes and Cole Reschny have higher ceilings.

Cootes should become a middle-six center with reliable two-way ability, excellent off-puck instincts and produce 55 to 65 points each season. If Aitcheson is available, they might not be able to resist the big, menacing defenseman.

A centre it is!
