One thing i got from watching McKenzies preview last night is that there are no real top line guys. He even had Reinhart as a"good 2nd line" player. Not sure if you trade much to move up 5 spots and get a player who isint much better than what you could of had. It all comes down to probabilities ...

via: http://www.tsn.ca/draftcentre/feature/?id=95289 TSN's (Bob McKenzie) TOP 2014 FINAL DRAFT PROSPECTS It lists the top 60 and some honourable mentions. Here's their top 10: 1. Aaron Ekblad 2. Sam Reinhart 3. Sam Bennett 4. Leon Draisaitl 5. Michael Dal Colle 6. Nick Ritchie 7. Jake Virtanen 8 ...

All the more reason not to panic to trade up. Definitely something decent will be around at 6. If Draisatl wasn't German he'd be in the mix for no.1 overall imo. Shades of Kopitar all over again. Failing a trade we'd be very fortunate to add Draisatl to our mix. If the Canucks' truly believe one ...

Nylander is too pretty boy Dicaprio. We can't be drafting that DD looks the part of a German Terminator: http://i.imgur.com/gsrRCYE.jpg that's the look of someone you want to be on your side if you're going to battle. But I do appreciate the smug look from William: http://i.imgur.com/QIyy8CX.jpg ...

Somebody needs to tell bro Jake that he isn't funny. His jokes are the worst, what's with his long drawn out fake laugh ? How the fuck did he ever get on radio? I don't get it. He's mastered Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People." His Shtick is to be the class clown and ...

I think the days of the helicopter line playing for the Canucks are OVER.

Allegedly, the former regime of Michael D. Gillis and Gilman, uh, "encouraged" (No. 1 Canucks Beat Writer) Botchford to get into a twitter wars with Toronto Star Columnist Damien Cox. LOL.

I'd love to see them go for it, but they shouldn't give up Horvat, find another way. Strength down the middle is what we see with successful teams. Set up a Reinhart-Horvat 1-2 punch for the next 10 years. Yeah, I see your point. But it really comes down to what GMJB sees in Horvat. Is he a likely ...
