I want Smith to fall to us. Low chance of that the way we climb the standings of late.

Moves me onto my less comfortable area being hard to make my mind up. Moore intrigues me. Benson should be gone. Dvorsky I try to like but something I cannot put my finger on bugs me about him. Yager is falling & it’s about his compete level every game. Heidt has my interest but if we fall more. Wood is my dark horse needs to work on skating but gut feeling is he’ll be good to very good. Simashev has my eye for the game he plays & we need but only later 1st if somehow we pick around there.

The top 10 in the 2nd round will find a feast of good or better prospects. Cannot see us trading for any of those picks from bottom feeders.

I get it some here like scouting & projecting prospects in the draft. Others not so much. All I’m saying is what is the big deal not more ppl engage? It’s all in fun & nobody wins or loses anything. It’s fine to speak of needs & wants but around the fringes isn’t getting more of consensus of who we like as a group in here. Maybe a prospect will be more popular than others or a big scattering of opinions.

I think we’ll pick a C. The amount out there seems highly probable we go that route & for need. I’ll gag if it’s a winger. If a D well that’ll shock me a bit & I’d need to soak it in for a bit. There is a small to nil chance we trade at the draft table but purely a guess. Really cannot peg PA on what he will do but surprises me most of the time. So much to happen or not on trades leading up to draft day.

I liked the Boston Kincade that you had yesterday

I know it passes people off that a Canucks fan actually also likes the Bruins, but to effen bad.

When they had Orr sure why not. But ever since they stole Neely and then the Cup with Lucic it’s well kind of callous.

Yager and Dragicevic are on my list after Reinbacher and Smith. Dragicevic looks like he will be a legit top 4 and sooner rather than later.
- Retinalz


Unless Canucks get more picks it’s doubtful they get any of those D. Maybe there is a chance of Reinbacher but he seems sought after.

If they win one of the two lottos slots they get their 1C superstar.

Fair enough thx.

I have tiers as well. I usually single out a player or sometimes 2-3. This draft there is 3-4 C’s that I can live with. Reinbacher 4oa would floor me being there is so many very good F’s at the top of this draft. Been wrong before aka Seidel. Kudos to Vantel who spoke out on him the most.

Similar plans for us. Problem is always coincides when work ramps up. Like stuff done before summer but never works out that way now.

I placed a bet, which I don't often do, that those 2 teams will meet in the finals. I believe getting Ekholm is a big plus for the Oilers.
Man that hurts saying anything good about the Oilers.

10 dollar bet, I could win 620 dollars.

Hoping to get a greenhouse built this year. I have been growing my own vegetables and berries for about 7 years now. Well worth the work.

I’ll stick with that one. You’re right. It rolls off the tongue better.

I just bet 2.00 on Canucks to win the cup

It pays 501 to 1

I realize cheering for Boston isn't well accepted, but to effen bad.

Always good to have another team, when you are a Canucks fan.

Not happy about it but I'd rather die than cheer for the Oilers...







...or the Leafs, Flames or Habs.

Leafs

Oilers

Was never a Habs fan, but they drafted/traded for some players that I really like.

Exactly, just keep winning and in playoffs everyone would come back from their cap injuries. Anything could happen.
