If Jim Benning doesn't screw up as much any further, continues on with the rebuild, and successfully does it, could the Canucks look like this many years down the road? Would the team be able to contend by then if everything goes to plan? There a lot of "ifs", but hey its very possible.
Dahlen - Pettersson - Boeser
Top 6 Winger - Horvat - Virtanen
Gadjovich - Gaudette - Lind
Baertschi - Granlund - Molino
Dahlin - Stecher
Juolevi - Subban
Hutton - Tanev
Brisebois
Demko
DiPietro
I left out guys like Derrick Pouliot, Anton Rodin, Cole Cassels, etc, because I'm for sure not sold on them yet. Also left out players like Gudbranson, Markstorm, etc, as I don't see them not being traded within the next 3-5 years, simply due to the rebuild
A lot of things would have to fall in place, but with the right player development, it's doable.
Thoughts?
