I agree Gillis drafting is horrible.
I believe that the draft order rules are the same as last year. If that is the case, the best possible pick for the Canucks is 22nd. That would require none of Pitt, Montreal, Chicago, or Anaheim to make the conference finals. For every one of those teams that makes the conference finals, the Canucks' pick moves one back, worst possible is 26th if all four of those teams make the conference finals. Getting swept does nothing to help their draft position.
