I hope Vilardi goes to Detroit if for no reason other than that he gets to play literally the next town over

There goes my boy to Buffalo. Get him into a gym and Buffalo has a great future 2C behind Eichel.

Jealous.

In response to blueangel

"Probably nothing more than a 2nd liner, but he's gonna be a good NHL player

Not someone to pick 7th overall though"

Not many in this draft will be more then 2nd liners, andersson will be a really good pick n and when we look back on this I feel he will be a good pick at that point.

Silver Lining: If the Canucks did make a big mistake in passing on Vilardi, at least a bunch of others did too.

Reminds me of Barzal falling

Still salty over us not trading up for him, though I love Boeser

I love love love the Pettersson pick. Wanted Makar real bad but once he was gone I would have been angry if it was anyone but Pettersson.

Reminds me of Nylander a few years ago. Who we should have picked.

It's a skill game nowadays and Pettersson might have the most skill in the draft. Yes he is a few years away, but this is a franchise that needs to take these risks. I really am in shock that Benning made the right move.

There is a reason Vilardi is dropping. He is good but it's a quick game these days and his foot speed is not the best
