Cette vidéo est tellement époustouflante visuellement que vous avez le sens du détail💖
GREAT❤😍
get the best player available. who really knows the needs 2-3 years from now.
Not swedish so canucks wont tske him
There are a number of excellent defensive minded defensemen in this draft and 1 or 2 should be available at 11.
You can factor into the defensive equation that what happened to Calgary might be relevant to Hughes if he wants to be a Devil in 4 years. And after setting an NHL all-time record for blown multigoal leads surely at some point you have to build tomorrow's blueline through the draft.
Canucks will take a safe – defensive minded 2 way player. I dont see Zach Benson as that.
Unless the defenseman is a vant miss top pairing dman, you dont draft dmen with a high pick.
BPA should remain the focus.
what does ''best'' mean? best offensively? best defensively? best goal scorer? best assist/play-maker? best +/- ? best tough guy racking up the PIMs? best hockey IQ? best 2-way player? best defensive penalty-killing forward? best offensive-defenseman? best captain material? best leader in the locker room? best ambassador for the game outside of the rink helping out charities in the community? best shootout/penalty shot taker? best skater? best goalie? what exactly…(*well it depends on what a team is looking for – hence drafting for position, & the best one @ that
Zack Benson all the way 😮
They skipped Tchuck for the positional need of defense…. if lesson not learn to draft bpa after that… then you don't deserve to be in management
Willander as top 4 RD is worth more on the trade market than Zach Benson as an undersized top 6 winger. That is my hope for our pick, now that i know we made it 😉 not that i want to trade him lol
