I don't understand all the hand wringing about Vancouver and the number one pick? Florida has said they will only make the deal if that improves them right now. They want players that can play and contribute right now. That does not sound like a bunch of draft picks in a poor draft to me. Unless Vancouver coughs up Tanev or another player that will improve the Panthers right now, I just don't see this working out they way some are expecting. I still expect a deal to happen, but it's going to be for assets that improve the Panthers and weaken the Canucks.
