His development is super interesting to me. I'm not convinced he'll be consistent but after last season, it seems like his floor is 1st line power wing. One of the few times that picking against the grain early in the draft will work out.

Yeah, even if he just stays as the player he was in the 2nd half of last season he's a 1st line power winger.

But he's still so young and just absolutely massive and it will be interesting to see how far he goes.

Montreal deserves massive, massive credit for going against the grain and taking him ahead of Wright. I wouldn't trade Slafkovsky for 3 Wrights right now.

Assume we'll get confirmation of the Penticton Youngs-Stars tournament lineup by early next week. In years past, the Canucks were forced to bring in a number of 'invitees' just to ice a full compliment of players.

But I don't see that happening this year. Between the last couple of drafts; and some of the first year AHL player who will undoubtedly get an invite, it could be a pretty complete roster of actual Canuck prospects.

The only area I could see them needing some help is in goal.....since guys like Silovs and Tolopilo have aged out. I suppose Ty Young could be back. But it would his third Young-stars tournament by my recollection.
