With the Canucks taking Jake Virtanen with the 6th overall I can't help but see the similarities between him and Valeri Nichushkin. Both big guys with skating ability who can shoot. That's the poll in a vacuum.
But it also gets me thinking about the possibilities. Considering we took a player comparable to Horvat in McCann with our second 1st round pick this year in hindsight would Nichushkin, Ehlers/Nylander, McCann have been a better use of picks vs Horvat, Virtanen, McCann? This is just for discussion, the poll it's self is Virtanen vs Nichushkin as players.
