NHL draft: 6 fascinating players to watch

The Canucks will be the only Canadian team drafting in the top 5, so of course the CBC only offers up names that are unlikely to be interesting or available in that range.

Here's a roundtable of Canucks people telling us who the Vancouver ...pardon me, Canucks might be interested in.

That site also gives you their top 100 picks and if you click the name you'll get stats and profiles.

Personally I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for Cody Glass or Cale Makar.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm fascinated.

You should be.

The Canadiens should be watching this draft. They just sent away their top defensive prospect Sergachev to Tampa Bay for Jonathan Drouin.

But hey, not to worry we'll tip the cup to you guys when our picks are fully developed and you're still wondering why you don't have anything decent coming up through the ranks.

Fascinating...

It is, isn't it? You should tune in at 7 o'clock your time to see how much worse your team is going to suck in a few years.

I'm hoping mine is going to do better. We need a top 2 centre or a defenceman who can run the powerplay. Fingers crossed.

Sorry FD, this is just me being anti-buzzword.


Sick and tired of people qualifying everything online... fascinating, the best, you won't believe your eyes/ears, OMG incredible. Let me look or read and decide by myself if I find it fascinating.

Yeah, I know. CBC sucks.

But thanks for continuing to drive this link here up to #1 on the recently viewed list.

If you can just keep it up until about 8 o'clock that should be good.

Fascinating...

Half hour before the show starts on Sportsnet.

Don't know where you watch it out East.

No longer a Jim Benning fan.

He can go jump in a lake.

'Blah, blah, blah...' says Jim, "we like big, fast centers who can set up plays and have character. Canadian heart and European skill."

Nobody checks all those boxes like Cody Glass. So the draft comes and Cody is sitting there waiting and Benning says, "Wait, Glass is too much exactly what we want. I know, let's take that scrawny little Swede with the pencil arms."

I'm going to invent a term. 'Doing a Benning.' It's when 9 out 10 people say something is a no-brainer then you say, "No, wait. What's the dumbest possible thing we could do in this situation. Let's do that." That's doing a Benning.

That's it for me. I want Benning gone. Linden too.

I might become a Las Vegas fan. They've made nothing, but great moves.

Dog out.

Only if this years draftees were all like this.



Vive les Habs.
