Following their selection of two defencemen in the third round (<a href="https://canucksarmy.com/news/canucks-defencemen-mynio-brzustewicz-third-round-picks">right shot Hunter Brzustewicz and left shot Sawyer Mynio, who you can read more about by clicking here</a>) the Vancouver Canucks had three picks in the fourth round.
At 105th overall, the Canucks selected Ty Mueller with their first selection in the fourth round. Here&#8217;s what CanucksArmy&#8217;s prospect guru Faber had to say about Mueller over on his live blog:
<blockquote>At 105, the Canucks selected 20-yeard-old centre Ty Mueller out of the NCAA. This one certainly came as a surprise as we didn&#8217;t expect the Canucks to be selecting a 20-year-old player in the draft.
Mueller had a solid season with Omaha, but honestly, I haven&#8217;t watched him at all so I can&#8217;t bring much insight here. I don&#8217;t love the pick.
My selection at 105 would have been Hoyt Stanely, who ended up going 108th overall in the draft. Stanley grew up a Canucks fan, is a 6&#8217;3&#8243; defenceman and slid due to the fact that he played in the BCHL.</blockquote>
Two picks later, the Canucks took 6&#8217;6 Swedish left winger Vilmer Alriksson at 107th overall. Here&#8217;s what Faber said about the pick:
<blockquote>Alriksson is a 6&#8217;6&#8243; winger who skates well. We&#8217;ve had a couple of viewings on him but didn&#8217;t see enough to really dive in on the prospect. I guess that will change now as he is officially a Canucks prospect.
Size is always good but this fourth round could have been a lot more fun if they just kept rolling through defencemen.</blockquote>
At pick 119, the Cnaucks selected forward Matthew Perkins. Here&#8217;s what Faber said about Perkins:
<blockquote>At pick 119, the Canucks went with Matthew Perkins out of the USHL. He&#8217;s a centre/winger who scouts are saying has below-average skating and hands but thinks the game well. We will have to watch him more to get a true feeling on the type of player that he is but from reading some quick reports, we&#8217;re not sold just yet.
We would have gone with Chase Cheslock in this spot. Taking a 6&#8217;3&#8243; right-shot defenceman with some upside to be a support defenceman in an NHL team&#8217;s bottom-four seems like a good idea for this team at this spot.</blockquote>
