Mynio 2nd in WHL dman scoring. D prospect pool looking solid right now

Tom Willander
Sawyer Mynio
Elias Pettersson
Kirill Kudryavtsev
I could actually see all these guys one day playing in the NHL. When was the last time the Canucks had four d-men in the system who were legitimate NHL prospects?

You probably have to back to the Burke-Nonis era when guys like Edler, Bieksa and Tanev were playing for the Manitoba Moose.

I think we need to pump the brakes a bit here. At one time Rathbone and a few others were all considered as solid bets as well.
It’s certainly unlikely that we end up anywhere close to Edler, Tanev and Bieksa.

Mynio is 2nd in WHL scoring for defencemen right now.

3rd is Landon DuPont...who is 15 years old. That kid is a freak. He would be drafted in the first round this season, and he's not even eligible until 2027.
