Re: Vancouver Canucks
Whole draft seemed positive for them. I don't know much about guys beyond round 1, but seems they were lauded on Twitter.
That Russian dude they took late is a fun flyer methinks.
"Round 6, 186th overall – Artyom Manukyan (RW) (KHL/MHL)
The Canucks were really swinging for the fences on this one. After making the smart move to acquire a pick by moving down, they put a bet on a dimunitive skilled player from Russia. This reminds me a little of drafting Petrus Palmu, but checking out Artyom Manukyan‘s stats from the last couple of years is a very different story.
Both players were drafted in their 20-year-old seasons and are 5’7″ in height. The similarities end there as Manukyan is really on the light side at 139 lbs. For some of you that may have you asking questions. I always root for smaller players, but Manukyan is really small. At least Palmu was built like a firetruck, but for Manukyan, I don’t think that takes away from his skill."
