There’s no denying that defence has been the Vancouver Canucks‘ biggest weakness over the last five years, but general manager Jim Benning has the chance to address that with the No. 10 pick in next month’s entry draft.
Unfortunately for the Canucks, Vancouver Giants blueliner Bowen Byram is most certainly not going to be there when it’s their turn to pick. Unless Benning wants to pay a ridiculous price to move up, he’s not getting Byram.
With the exception of Byram, it’s not crazy to believe that the other top 10 picks will all be forwards.
