Hi. I’m “Gio Palermo”, also known as “legorocks99” (“legorocks99Gaming”, “LR99Gaming”, or “LR99”). I post video game commentaries on YouTube revolving around “hockey”, with a primary focus on “Vancouver Canucks”, “Montreal Canadiens”, “Detroit Red Wings”, and top “NHL prospects” topics. These videos are uploaded with “NHL 23” gameplay in the background. I enjoy making these videos and I hope that you enjoy watching them!

  1. I could've gone my whole life without knowing that Canucks were 1 off the lottery ticket. The saying "what you don't know won't hurt you" is never been more true 🙁

  2. As a wings fan devastated doesn’t even come close to the feeling I have. We are doomed for the mushy middle for years. Pretty soon Seider will be mid 20s and we’ll be rebuilding the rebuild

  3. i hope another scandal hits the hawks and they have to forfeit the pick. im a CBJ fan but the NHL cant keep getting away with big market bias.

  4. Draft Kings are absolutely drunk if they think Dvorsky is not going in the top 10.

  5. Vancouver at 11th… based on this projection, we have a shot at Reinbacher and Barlow. I'd be happy with one of these players. I don't think Bedard, Fantilli, Michkov, Smith, Carlsson and Benson will drop to us. And now I'm getting doubts that Sandin-Pellikka and Leonard will too. But who knows. Columbus, Montreal, Arizona and Philly have made questionable picks before. As long as Canucks don't overthink, we will get a pretty good prospect.

  6. I hope the Canucks draft Reinbacher. They need RD and he’s top 2 available. Mind you this draft seems to be forward oriented… But perhaps because Vancouver wanted a D man that’s why they were willing to fall lower in the draft.

  7. Nhl is rigged. Why is always Blackhawks, rangers and Edmonton, penguins getting top picks. Should have been Columbus, anaheim, sharks

  8. No way CBJ takes Michkov, they desperately need a centre in their prospect pool to play with Gaudreau and Laine.

  9. Habs drafting big centre Carlsson at 5 is a big consolation for not winning the lottery.

  10. I think Yzerman could land Dvorsky he seems to fit extremly well That type of profile Stevie Y love big kid really competitive really good motor skilled and smart .. and with the 2nd if Sale is still there I think he could be the pick too so Sale yeah but surely not with the first pick

  11. My prediction is Michkov is available at 5th Montreal takes him and makes a move to get PLD for more depth at centre.

  12. Axel Sandin Pellikka seems to be a more polarizing player than Reinbacher, and rightfully so as Reinbacher has a bigger frame and is more steady… I personally feel the Canucks have Hughes as an offensive defenceman already so adding a steadier Reinbacher would seem more reasonable than Sandin Pellikka. But Craig Button is comparing ASP to Sergei Zubov and my mind is just getting excited on how having a Zubov-like D man would help this team… But knowing the Canucks' luck, both these guys would be gone from the first 10 picks, and the Canucks will end up getting another winger to add to their staple of wings…
