Q&A with Canucks top prospect Joni Jurmo

With their first and second-round picks for the 2020 NHL Entry Draft dealt away in the deals for JT Miller and Tyler Toffoli respectively, the Canucks knew that they would have to make some shrewd selections in later rounds to continue to add depth to their prospect pool.

Their first selection was at #82, and with it they took smooth-skating defensemen Joni Jurmo, a selection that was widely praised at the time.

Joni Jurmo was #57 on my board. A nice pick by VAN at this spot.
