Regardless of position, if available, the Canucks will be taking Nico Hischier.
Well, that's probably not happening anymore.
I would probably still take a forward, though. When you've got Juolevi, Brisebois, and Subban in the pipeline, along with Hutton and Stecher currently on the roster, you're pretty set on defense. It'd be nice to have more centers besides Horvat, especially when you need to replace Henrik Sedin.
