as a canucks fan, who watch most of the games this season. I believe you are wrong. ilya was a cone on offense scored 1 goal in 60 games and had a breakaway in game 7 against skinner hits the side of the net. lindholm and zadorov are okay but didn't do much in regular season until playoffs hit. it was great having them score but, what the bruins paid for the both of them was a reach i don't think they are bad just not as good as what they were paid. jake debrusk on the other hand gets a fresh start alongside a norris winner, 100 point per game player and petterson maybe another 100 point per game player. 5.5 was great and we are under the cap. we changed myers D game aswell Huggys. also I Expect podkolson, hogs to take a step up. ALSO having lekkermaki, lil petey and wallinder in the ahl skys the limit. The bruins don't have that talent because they are trying to compete like pens or caps. that doesn't mean they are gonna be bad its just they reaching like the canucks did with OEL and Loui eriksson instead trying to reset. The main thing is having gonchar a 2 time cup winner as your defense coach is a big asset and having the twins for player dev is insane. most of your staff have made the finals in the last 25 years and have that playoff culture in them.

Fla will win the Atlantic again and be in ECF again. They'll be just fine.

Bad take on the canucks

People kept doubting the Nucks preseason, Christmas break, trade deadline etc etc etc blah blah blah last season too. They feed on that, so thank you for adding to the fuel.

Really? Luchanko was a reach? Naw, a lot of people had him in top 15 or 20. Also Letourneau was picked right around the area he was expected.

Bro the LA Kings have a stranglehold on 3rd place in the weak Pacific.

When I heard ilya mikheyev I think I almost died also we were great before zadorov and lindholm i think they’ll be fine

Horrible take on the Bruins tbh. That team is the most well-run organization in the NHL and they tend to find excellent fits for the roles the team needs. Looking forward to year number 99999 in a row where self-proclaimed hockey nerds miss the single most obvious pattern in the history of hockey AGAIN. Oh well. I'll take the layup path to looking like a god damn genius every single year by pointing out that this happens every single season

Sharks got so many pieces... interesting to see what they can do with them. And Kiviharju in 4th round is absoulutely insane, true he has some problems with injuries but when he's okay he's absoulute beast

Flyers over achieved even this season but I'd say if they find someone between posts they could find themselfs fighting in PO spots

Canucks are definitely better now

sens will certainly be in trouble. Most important coaching hire in franchise history and Staios picked the worst option in RECORD TIME.

The Kings could not have ran it back with the same soft group, they added much needed toughness to the lineup and they got a bunch of kids ready to break through, it's gonna be an interesting season.

Parascak looked great in the development camp and down the line, if he moves to LW he could be a really good feeder for Leonard. Washington doesn't have many open spots on the roster so if it takes 2 years for Parascak that's fine. As for his skating, that's what Wendy is for. Eiserman reminds me of Sprong. I don't think he ever becomes a franchise scorer.

Ilya michavev was horrible and lindholm was nothing special also yes zadorov had a break out year but don’t Kidd yourselves if Vancouver was healthy they would have won the cup

We cant keep saying this about Boston every year

I think even with the losses Florida will pull through for another deep run

As a Flyers fan it's understood that this past season was a massive overachievement. It's a given the team is going to be pretty bad for at least the next few seasons and after years of the failed Chuck Fletcher experiment, we're embracing the rebuild. Hoping Michkov is as good as advertised as Briere can build a contender around him in time.

he is literally the best player out of germany, how in the world are you sayin hes not the german gretzky?

I can assure you sabre fans and management did not expect Reinhart to fizzle out in Florida

To say a pick is a reach by comparing with journalist or with the awfull judgment of NHL Central is not understanding why NHL teams pay a fortune for a full time team to evaluate themselve... if your guy is available at the spot you're picking, you dont risk it for a 2nd rounder uncertainty

I’m a big believer in Marty, you’re giving Anderson and Pezzetta to work with, what do you want to do 😅

Crazy Marner disrespect

Cole Eiserman at 20, is the steal of draft. 🎉

I like your analysis, but I don’t think it can be the absolute worst contract when their cap hit is under $2 million. I think Edmundson and Zadorov got two of the worst contracts this offseason.

Sorry but saying suzuki wont pass 80 points when he had 77 with this team even with caufield not scoring to what we expected and not playing wtih slaf for a whole season is a really bad take.

6:28 If it wasn't for the ghost of Cam Neely still haunting the Canucks organization, Virtanen would have been moved a couple years before the allegations. He was big, and could skate, but that was it. He had no head for the game, and no finish. Plays died on his stick. Such potential just wasted.

Both MTL and Philly had beckett sennecke in their scope, CBJ didnt want to trade. If the ducks traded with anyone there was a chance they wouldve lost becket Demidov wasnt habs first choice

Horrible pick

Might not be such a massive reach.

Nice! Some Kraken love, I'll take it!

Demidov dropping 3 spots isn’t really that big of a steal. He’s not the consensus #2 pick if 3 teams passed on him. There are massive concerns about him even getting to North America

I think the Habs would have taken Senneke if Demidov and Lindstrom were gone. Senneke would have went 5. So he’s not that much a reach

Toxic Avs fans in the comments proving his point. No wonder you bozos are one of the most hated in the league 😂💀

It's going to be funny when Sennecke ends up as the best player in this draft. He definitely would have been gone before picks 10-11. Columbus was probably going to take him.

benett praised by hus physicality? he wasnt even able to do ONE pull up and ONE chin up LOL

So this child knows NOTHING...NOTHING of hockey.

The sound editing is awful. Volume broken?

I was critical of the Parascak pick only because of who they passed up on, (I thought that Eiserman and Connelly both should've been picked in the top 15), but this is still a guy who put up 100+ in the WHL last season. Yes he has some skating concerns and will be a longer-term project, but that's fine when the current core of McMichael, Lapierre, Miro and Leonard have all started to come into their own. I would not call him a "massive reach" either, most rankings had him between 25-35, only a little below where the Caps actually selected him. You also never know the conversations that were had, maybe GMBM was trying to trade down from pick 17 but nobody else was willing to bite. I have him as my third ranked prospect in Washington's system, although I recognize that he's likely at least three years away from being NHL ready. Still a great video overall, liked your player analysis and glad to see that there are more Caps creators on the platform to provide their takes on the team!

So you only like 9 out of 32 fanbases?? Seems like the common denominator is YOU!

Obviously Nate Schmidt has been having some off ice issues since his value has declined as much it has

Ondrej Case 😂

Great video homie. Your channel is gonna blow up soon.

There need to be an "ok" level between meh an success. Ekblad is absolutely not meh, Vrana is not a success.

great points. for me, I think Dallas has 2 terrible signings that belong on the worst 5. or at least one of them. I'd say CO signing John Drouin 1 yr @ 2.5 belongs on my top5 best

The Canucks messed up Jake's development. Virtanen could've taken his job seriously.
