2025 DRAFT Thread

[credulous]

It will be the best Swede available. That's how PA rolls.

probably boumedienne given where they draft

 

[wetcoast]

Roger McQueen
Benjamin Kindel
Jake O’Brien
Ivan Ryabkin
Carter Bear
Brady Martin
Braeden Cootes

All centers (though Bear is more of a winger than a C). whoever is available when we pick, in that order is who I want. I personally would love Ryabkin.

Assuming that we aren't picking in the top 10 it's highly likely that both McQueen and O'Brien will be gone.

Bear most likely as well but he was injured so he might dip a bit.

I have zero interest in Ryabkin, let someone else take the risk on him.

The other 3 guys are good picks but I hope Martin is there for us.

The kid can really hit and he tilts the ice out there and has some untapped offensive potential.

The Canucks might also look at Jack Nesbitt a tall decent skating Center playing in Windsor.

Trade what.

They could trade one of their Dman prospects after they figure out which ones have the most trade value and how the team thinks that they fit in long term but I doubt they do this or that it would be a good value move.

That being said the Canucks really need potential top 6 centers and they should probably focus on those types this year and next where possible.

Can’t draft too many centers
