Welcome to another edition of the Canucks Army Podcast. This week J.D. Burke and myself are joined by Ryan Biech to break down this year’s NHL entry draft prospects and how the Canucks may rank their top 5 prospects.
Biech also gives us his take on some draft options in the 2nd round and whether a promising prospect with 1st round skills can slide down to 33.
We debate why Nikita Tryamkin decided to go back to the KHL and whether there is a lesson to be learned here when it comes to drafting, signing and integrating Russian prospects into the NHL.
Sticking with defense, we also talk about what a potential Chris Tanev trade could look like, plus we answer some great listener questions.
Don’t just take my word for it, have a listen.
