This signing of Aidan McDonough pretty much closes one era of NHL drafts for the Vancouver Canucks.
This draft has seen three players pass the crucial 200-games played mark — Virtanen’s clock has stopped at 317 games, but Jared McCann and Gustav Forsling, 304 games to date after being chosen in the fifth round, look set for long careers.Photo by Jeff VinnickThis is where things start to go a little sideways for Benning, who often ignored the advice of his scouts and followed his own list. Brock Boeser is a solid player.
Benning picked Olli Juolevi at fifth overall, which most observers at the time said was well above his expected draft slot. Rodrigo Abols was a strange late-round pick, since as a 20 year old he could simply have been signed as a free agent post-draft. And despite being 20, he didn’t dominate the WHL that season, a big warning sign that the 7th round pick had a very low ceiling as a prospect.2017
The assessment process built by Brackett and key lieutenant Dan Palango was again proven right with the next four picks — Kole Lind , Jonah Gadjovich , Michael DiPietro and Jack Rathbone — as all have played in the NHL.
