Although I want Mathew, two Finns or Chycrun. But Tkchak will e a very interesting prospect. A lot of people state that he has first liner skills with 4th liner grindiness in him. Kind of reminds me of Peter Forsberg.
A faster Shea Weber
I hate to base an opinion solely off the WJC's, but there's no doubt Juolevi has improved his value. I think you have to consider him at the 6 or 7 spot (along with Nylander). Has Chychrun fallen out of the top 5? I don't think so yet, but let's see how the next few months go.
And then he'll pick it up after the draft. And then one team is gonna feel so good of themselve. And then couple teams will be like“ WHY did we pass on him?"Its more Chychrun's underwhelming season that has closed the gap between him and the rest.
If he doesn't pick up his game, I wouldn't be surprise if he does fall out of the top 5.
Does he have a similar slap shot, because I would say that's a pretty big part of Weber's game.
And then he'll pick it up after the draft. And then one team is gonna feel so good of themselve. And then couple teams will be like“ WHY did we pass on him?"
that's the million dollar question, who will develop after the draft -- especially applies to D.
Personally, I feel the riser is a better bet than the faller.
Well what's he gonna say? "yeah, we're tanking" wouldn't really go over well.
No GM will readily admit that their team is tanking, and I really don't think this team is thinking about that. They just suck.
Every single year. There are always a couple players who had a decline year before the draft and fell down a couple spots. But then they will just pick it up right away post draft.
Craig Button's mock draft has us picking Alex Nylander at number 5, with Chychrun going 6th and Juolevi going 7th.
Given Nylander is a winger I'm not sure I like this. Would prefer Chychrun at 5 if he falls unless his value continues to fall and Nylander puts up a monster second half.
He has a better slapshot than his wrister, but Weber does have one of the best though.
As tough and physical as Weber.
Mobile and has a lot of speed.
He already exceeded Ekblad's rookie season.
yeah but how do you identify them?
Edmonton will take him if they draft before us.
I'm not a scout so I don't know
Laine-Eichel
Their fans are some lucky SOBs
We have a good chance at 4th overall... Which means one of the Finns or Chychryn would still be around. Fingers crossedddddd.
Edit: not a big Tkachuk fan.
What is he gonna say?
This organization is basically run with a guy who is terrified that the market will a walk away from the canucks. I'm not surprised that he is saying that this team won't tank.
Huge decision if two of Laine, Puljujarvi, or Chychryn are still on the table.
I'd go with the best D option in Chychryn really. Wouldn't think more than 5 seconds if we had the 3rd-6th draft pick. Honestly, the Canucks need a D more than any position right now. And even if we are drafting BPA, I think Chychryn is the BPA at 3rd.
We don't have anyone who can log 30 minutes in a regular season game, or 40 minutes in the playoffs. This guy is tough, physical, has the offensive acumen of a Suter/Weber and is mobile. This is the full package. If people believe Ekblad was the best player last draft, Chychryn, so far, is even better than Ekblad. And Ekblad is a stud.
