No matter what the Canucks just keep inventing new reasons for me to hate them.

Would rather have them kept the pick and taken McKeown.

Of course Vey is a former MH Tiger.

Hoping he'd slip to Flames (or that they would select him 34th even!)

Vey is a decent prospect. Caught behind the depth in LA. He should get a better shot with the Canucks.

Canucks now have the best 3 forwards from the Medicine Hat Tigers over the last few years. Vey, Shinkaruk and Curtis Valk ( not drafted but accepted a rookie try out).

Very is awesome. Got stuck behind Toffoli and Pearson. Astute pickup by the Canucks.

Ya I really like this trade a lot, as said above Vey is stuck behind some great prospects but he has legit 2nd line potential

I could see him making the team out of camp

I liked the player taken with this pick but Vey is an excellent pick up for the canucks. I'd be shocked if he didn't make the team out of camp.

I hate to say this but so far Jim Benning is doing a good job cleaning up the mess by Gillis and others and at the same time he's stockpiling his team who are willing to play for Canucks. Maybe he'll get rid of Burrows soon.
