June 28 2023: NHL Draft (1st Round) - Cam Robinson & Jeff Paterson
from Sekeres & Price Show
Matt and Blake discuss and dissect Tom Willander, the Canucks' choice at 11th overall in the NHL. From his love of the Canucks at an early age (Orca > Skate), to his meteoric rise up draft boards in the second half of this season, to his next step at Boston University where he'll learn the North American game and get a better opportunity to work on his strength and offensive game. Draft insider Cam Robinson stops by from Nashville with his evaluation of Willander as a player and on how the Canucks did value wise. The guys discuss whether there were trade down opportunities, and the top-10 surprises of Simashev & Danielson -- two other prospects the Canucks were reportedly eyeing. We also discuss the team passing on local product Zach Benson. Jeff Paterson from the Rink Wide: Vancouver podcast puts it all into context for us. The Canucks organizational needs now and in the future, where Willander fits, and what's left to do -- top-4 defenceman, third-line centre -- for this coming season. Plus, we go To The People and take listeners/follower reaction to the Canucks pick. Presented by Applewood Auto Group.Follow us on social (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok & YouTube).
