I’m a little late to the party on this, but yeah.....
Carolina is willing to move the #2 pick.
I might be in the minority here, but I do think there is a gap between Svechnikov and the other forwards in this draft. While I don’t think Svech will be the next Ovechkin or Kucherov, I think he’ll be in that Vladimir Tarasenko category.
While the Canucks are in need of more defensemen, having Svech and Boeser on separate lines on our Top 6 would be a potential nightmare for opposing teams. Dahlen-Pettersson-Svech = potentially one of the best lines in hockey in a few years.
So here are my questions:
1) Would you be willing to move up to the #2 spot?
2) what would it take to get there? I would like to think Virtanen + 7OA + 2nd would be enough, but Carolina likely wouldn’t accept anything less than atleast one of Boeser, Horvat, or Pettersson (which to me, is not acceptable).
I could see Virtanen + 7OA + Gaudette being a deal that both teams accept, but I’d be a little sad to lose both Virtanen and Gaudette. Obviously at this stage in the Canucks’ rebuild, they need to be wary of trading multiple young pieces.
However, the idea of having
Dahlen-Pettersson-Svechnikov
Baertschi-Horvat-Boeser
As our Top 6 is extremely difficult to ignore.
