Canucks are still soft as baby bunnies.
Jack Hughes , Kaapo Kakko, Alex Turcotte, Kirby Dach, Dylan Cozens, Vasili Podkolzin
should get a great forward prospect out of this draft
I was actually being modest with my prediction. I still contend that Beagle and Roussel will have a bigger impact in Vancouver than Tavares will have in Toronto. Those are the type of guys that you win with, and those are the type of guys that will make the kids feel safer. No one is going to take liberties with Pettersson with those guys here, and as result, we will bear witness to Peterrsson and Boeser absolutely tearing up the league.
Your post has just as much “wrongness” as the other guy. Two very bizarre postsIt really is amazing how much wrongness you manage to cram into small paragraphs. Beagle and Roussel will provide every bit as much deterrence as Gudbranson and Sutter. Neither will be on a line with Boeser or Pettersson...especially as there's no room on the roster for Pettersson. What, is Roussel going to fly to Sweden if someone in the SHL takes a run at Pettersson?

Here you go again with this stupidity. And then in a couple years when these guys are bought out you'll claim you never actually meant this.

Beagle and Sutter are going to OWN that face off dot. Do you not see this as being an advantage?

Add Newhook and Krebs to this. Wouldn’t mind Bryam either in the 4-7 range
So what, you think Beagle and Roussel are going to have more impact here than Tavares will in Toronto? You think a couple more defensive guys who can't score are going to make some big difference? Look at how much difference Dorsett made.Your post has just as much “wrongness” as the other guy. Two very bizarre posts
Maybe but the problem is you’re still left with Beagle and Sutter on the ice for the rest of the shift. What are they gonna do with the puck after they win the face off 55% of the time? Skate it into the corner and kill the clock until Boeser and Horvat can come back on? But then who will win the face off for them??
Compare that to Tavares who might only win 45-50% of faceoffs but can actually do something with the puck when he does win it. Like score goals and **** like that.
Or do you think the team that wins the most face offs is awarded the 2 points??
But remember when the 2011 Canucks had grit and agitators like Burrows, Kesler, Rome, Glass, Torres, Lapierre, and Alberts?
No one ever took liberties on anyone.
If they win the faceoffs, wouldn't someone else on the team have the puck?
Tavares won close to 53% of his faceoffs last season. No idea where you came up with the idea that Tavares was poor on faceoffs.
Like who? Roussel? Whoever Green is gonna staple to Sutter’s wing?
Results gonna be the same.
Didn’t look it up, just assumed CMH wouldn’t be stupid enough to base a Beagle >> Tavares argument on faceoffs if Beagle didn’t significantly outperform him.
My mistake.
Oh, it wasn't about your manners. I just trust you won't be making that mistake again.Ah, I edited my post to be less ... offensive. Gotta remember my manners here. Sentiment remains the same.

Dear mods,
In case you were wondering why a thread about the 2019 draft is a Jay Beagle flame war that is probably getting you reports, please read the quoted post that prompted the discussion.
A post that has nothing to do with the topic, was completely unprompted, and is quite obviously just perfectly designed bait which serves utterly no purpose but to attempt to derail the thread by provoking a reaction, which has unfortunately succeeded, and, curiously, was left standing even after a moderator intervention.
This is behaviour we have seen repeatedly from this individual, who posts completely unprompted absurdist "hot takes" that he knows are going to get him the exact responses that he gets, and leads us to the current situation in this thread.
I wish that everyone could just ignore him like I do, but please notice. Every time this happens, every time you get reports and have to go to work, it is started in exactly the same way, usually by the same person. The pattern of behaviour is obvious.
