Can you name names, I don't remember that.

But I do remember your concern over the possibility of losing Gaunce. :mrgreen:
Not really. I ain’t digging that mess up though. But at know there were some big Granlund fans here when he scored 19 goals getting 17-18 mpg and tons of PP time even though he was horrific defensively. Gaunce is a replacement level player as well. Kinda like Chaput and Megna and Eriksson for that matter.
Speaking of Gaunce. It’s astounding to me that Gillis only managed to draft one legit NHL’er - Horvat in 6 drafts. Astounding! League history worst! One! And Horvat came via a trade! He wasn’t free!! Had to give a legit young player to get him, forget first round pick - Schneider!!
He drafted four ‘legit’ NHLers. Hodgson, Hutton, Connauton and Horvat. All with 300 + games played. Hodgson was diagnosed with malignant hyperthermia. He would likely still be paying if he was healthy enough to.

Not sure why you constantly feel the need to lie. Kinda disturbing. :|

It’s 4 players in six drafts. Was it a good period of drafting? Absolutely not but it’s getting a bit tiresome to constantly call you out for lying Boss. It’s becoming a bit of a pattern. :scowl:

Benning has currently in the NHL from 6 drafts 7 legit players and many more to come:

Pettersson
Hughes
Virtanen
Boeser
Gaudette
Demko
McCann

No human in their right mind would trade the worst player on that list for one of Hodgson, Hutton :lol: or Connauton :lol:

I’m not a fan of any of those guys but it’s a bald faced lie to say he only drafted one NHLer in six years.

I didn’t mention Benning or any of those players. You were exposed for lying ....AGAIN. And not surprisingly you tucked your tail and ran.... AGAIN. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Fer sure. More than a solid piece imo.

Only guy to have ever been ECHL, AHL and NHL champ. Beagle Dawg gets paid.

Sutter is good - but injury prone, when healthy he helps take faceoffs and PK time so Horvat that mediocre #2 center can concentrate on his 30g/30a season more.
Eriksson hella trash.
Guds -> Pearson the shot king.
Beagle? wtf dude is probably one of the best 4th line #C's in the NHL, the Rangers were heavily interested in him but the workhorse, top in shape, top faceoff man chose Vancity.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

Makes about as much sense as your post Skyo.
