2024 NHL Draft Thread | No Picks, No Problems

[Bitz and Bites]

Three forwards in a row, should probably take a D or G next to keep those pipelines from drying up

Curious if Parker Alcos goes soon. 6'3 RD from Port Moody that plays for the Oil Kings. Not good stats but the Oil Kings aren't good. EP has him at 93 overall.

He's our guy.

Still waiting on Ian Clark's pick

 

[Hansen]

Only overager we took is a guy who is actually performing the way you would want an overager to perform.

I don’t see any way of picks this year, which is huge, some really good gambles.

It’s been a good draft

 

[VanillaCoke]

Too bad our staff didn't have more picks this year really did well considering draft positions

 

[TruGr1t]

Seems like they’re at least targeting projectable skill-sets with upside, which is nicer than some of the safer, low-upside picks we’ve seen in the later rounds in the past.

 

[WTG]

Massive pick

 

[cc]

All right shot players so far. Neat

 

[Vector]

Every player the Canucks have taken is extremely reasonable. Going for pretty high upside with the first three then the big RD for the 6th round.

 

[Vector]

TAKE KENTA ISOGAI IT'LL BE FUN

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

Curious if we take Zetterberg if he's still available

Playing at Boston U next year with Willander

 

[RealGudbranson]

JD Burke, Cam Robinson and crew will like the Nucks draft.

 

[Vector]

Only guy EP ranked left on my watch list is Parker Von Richter. 6'1 RD. Defensive defenceman from the OHL. They had him ranked 129. I seriously doubt the Canucks pick him.

Hilariously german name

Hilariously german name

I put him on my watch list purely for the name.

No NCAA players yet.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

No NCAA players yet.

I mentioned it was a bit different that we took multiple OHL guys - and now a WHL guy - after years of somewhat avoiding it. Our lack of NCAA picks is a bit surprising. Shift in strategy this year, maybe?

Jacob Truscott ruined it

It's very curious. They also prioritized size before but aren't this season. It's possible this is just where the chips fell. Also, no goalie yet.

Sounds like he’s apart of the German beer fest team lol
