Virtanen is never going to real elite skilled status and Brock Boeser is 6 feet and not a power forward.

Flames going to be good next season..

I'm shocked not sure if I'm happy but I think it's a good move, we as a team needed this and it sucked dim Jim didn't trade down but all in all everyone said he's a stud defensive dman

You should renew your season pass when we get Lucic. The power forward that Canucks desperately need.

I was expecting my Sabres to maybe have a shot at Juolevi at 8 as we have a need for D prospects. Not a horrible pick for the Canucks, especially after Dubois went off the board.

virtanen is a better pure goal scorer than tkachuk. he's also a better skater. tkachuk has better vision.

Hope OJ kills it in the NHL.. LUL

TjAlmeida 06-24-2016 04:11 PM

If Juolevi can develop into a a top 2 defenseman I think canucks made the right decision. Some of the arm chair Gm's in here. Benning has shown he can see talent, you guys harp him for so much and never praise the guy for what he has done.

That's going to interesting having the Nylanders on rival teams. As these two teams progress, they could elevate the rivalry to new heights.

Eichel-Nylander vs Matthews-Nylander

:lol

You'd think that after being in the league for like 20 years that you'd know the first rule of being a GM.

68style 06-24-2016 04:28 PM

Does anything fucking work out anymore? Im not mad we passed on Tkachuk, but DuBois going 3rd? What the fuckkkkkk nothing ever goes right these days!

JesseBlue 06-24-2016 04:30 PM

I'm excited to have the new juice into our team

Jmac 06-24-2016 05:13 PM

Datsyuk will retire a Coyote

punkwax 06-24-2016 05:14 PM

Well done, Detroit.

7seven 06-24-2016 05:23 PM

Armind 06-24-2016 05:38 PM

I agree, flames made a big mistake in not making a bishop deal work.

slicrick 06-24-2016 06:24 PM

I thought they were going to get Bishop. I still think they will be a pretty decent team next season. However, Elliot is a huge difference from Bishop and I agree he probably won't be a great solution for Calgary, long term at least.
