I like Gadjovich here. I have heard off-ice, he did not really take being a pro too seriously until this season. Put in a lot of work and it paid off, i guess.

Natural goal scorer, power forward with a nice heavy shot.

Phenomenal hand eye coordination. Net front presence that gets a tonnes of deflections and rebounds. Smart. Reliable. Knows where he needs to go on the ice.

My BPA choice is still available but this is a solid pick. If he can improve his skating there is tremendous upside here.

Very good pick and good draft so far. Would be nice if he got an invite to Team Canada camp this summer. Skating is a bit of an issue but if he can pick up another step this could be a steal at 55.

Watch this video. This guy scores the type of goals you need to be able to score in the NHL. He's always heading straight to the front of the net. Although he's not a great skater, I do think there is room for improvement. He has a high compete level and doesn't give up. He has very good instincts around the front of the net.

39 goals in his last 40'games. Ranked number 2 under power forward category by the Canucks .

This is how you manage your picks .awesome pick. This should please the fans that wanted vilardi.

He's bettter then vilardi.

Go Canucks go!I'm more happy about this pick at 55 then our 2nd pick and I love our 2nd pick.

Interesting. Have to think that increases the chances that his skating can improve, assuming he is willing to continue working.

Taking a forward who produces but whose primary red flag is skating in the late second is always a good idea.

i will admit i wanted Gildon or Entwistle here but if his skating takes a leap he will be better than both those 2. Could add a very valuable grit component to our group of forwards and chip in.
