Vancouver Off-Topic / Current EventsThe off-topic forum for Vancouver, funnies, non-auto centered discussions, WORK SAFE. While the rules are more relaxed here, there are still rules. Please refer to sticky thread in this forum.
Zach Yuen. The jets traded up to get him at 119. Vancouver picked at 120. So I guess the Jets thought Vancouver would pick him up.
Too bad we couldn't draft him.
yea because an Asian player is going to address grit issues.. lol
Don Cherry called. He wants you to be his understudy

The most interesting prospect IMO, was David Honzik:
Quote:
General manger Mike Gillis used the 71st pick to nab goaltender David Honzik, a 6-foot-2, 209-pound product of Tabor, Czech Republic, who spent last season with the QMJHL’s Victoriaville Tigers.
Honzik played in the HC Energie Karlovy Vary system prior to coming to Canada, but in just one season in the QMJHL he’s already drawing comparisons to a young Pekka Rinne of the Nashville Predators.
Backed by stellar play from Honzik, the Tigers were able to pull off an unlikely sweep of the Acadie-Bathurst Titan in the opening round of the 2011 QMJHL Playoffs, before losing to the Saint John Sea Dogs, the eventual champions, in the second round.
As Sportsnet columnist Patrick King discovered in talking with Tigers head coach Yanick Jean for his latest CHL column, once Honzik found consistency to his game, the Pekka comparisons began.
"A lot of scouts made the comparisons between both of them and I think it's a true fact," Jean told King. "(Rinne) was so good. I think Honzik was the same.
"The first half he had lots of ups and downs like any 17-year-old goalie. You would never know what you're going to get before a game. Second half, he had streaks that you would say, 'Oh, my god. He won five or six in a row.'
"From the end of February to the end of the playoffs, he was just outstanding. The last six or eight games he played for us during the year he was phenomenal."

About the twin brother, I believe Gillis will draft him next year or sign him as a free agent when he becomes a FA.
He looked kinda pissed when his dad brought up that he used to figure skate

DETECTIVE #2: "Jelly."
THE ROCK: "Oh, you like jelly. Well, jelly's a good one. The Rock says this; write this down. When you leave here, go down to Dunkin Donuts, get the biggest jelly donut you can find!"
(crowd pops louder)
LAWLER: "Oh, no... this guy's a COP!"
THE ROCK: "Write it down. Hold that jelly donut up, SQUEEZE all the jelly out, squeeze all the-- write it down; you like writing things down-- squeeze all the jelly out, and then-- write this down, you don't want to forget this-- TURN that sumbitch sideways, and stick it STRAIGHT UP your CANDY ASS!"
The Jensen draft pick addresses the weakest position in the Canucks: power forward. At 6 foot 2, 187 pounds, this guy has the potential to be the power forward that is lacking in our top 6. If he bulks up to 200 pounds, we got a damaging Dane to play for us.
There were a ton of people calling Vancouver as the most hated team in NHL.
And if Canucks sneaked in 4 nailbiter games and got completely destroyed 3 games,
people would be saying Canucks got lucky and didn't really deserve the cup.
So I guess no one would have been congratulation either team.
