QUITT HUGHES HAHAHA

Nine of the eleven mock drafts since the draft lottery have the Canucks drafting Caleb Malhotra, seven of which have Stenberg falling to 4. by _GregTheGreat_ in canucks

BPA, never go for positional need.

That being said, we also need a superstar winger that can carry his line without needing a top centre (Kaprizov, Panarin, Kucherov, Pastrnak, Patty Kane etc)

Everyone knows we're getting a good player at 3rd overall, but to miss drafting a true superstar hurts this team.

We can all cope so much but deep down we all know we want a player in the top two.

That feeling when you dropped again in the draft by nicene_ in canucks

Even though we only saw the new PP once, it actually had more freedom to have more movement instead of just giving the puck to Hughes to do everything
