Jason Bukala

I value him a lot more than Oliver Subanto because I believe that the profile, scoring profile, is much more...

attractive let's just say that so I almost put him down here I almost did and why sort of the same reason that I was explaining for Buffalo taking Morozov I kind of felt like that way about Dana as well he was the first overall pick in the Quebec League back in his time and and I think he's going to end up being a 35-40 goal guy potentially there this year but for the for the fit

of where the Canucks drafted already in my mind ahead of this slot here.

I like the trajectory of Hackinson.

And time will tell.

I think that he's honestly a powder keg ready to go off and be the better version of himself.

I really, really do.

You know, I think that, uh,

He's going to be a ying and a yang when it comes to Perak there on the right side.

And then you're going to have Nemec.

Nemec can play both sides, by the way.

So when I first started scouting him back in Europe back in the day, and he was playing pro as a youngster, mature beyond his years.

Really, he was.

He played the game with pace.

His off puck, joining the rushes an extra layer.

The way that he saw the ice and made plays.

And then, of course, he was a leader on the international stage with his peer group there.

uh internationally uh you know at the world juniors for example uh for slovakia and slovakia's had a you know a relatively successful run for the most part uh on the world stage and he was a big part of that so things just didn't work in new jersey for whatever reason not sure doesn't matter i think that they're gonna get a guy that can easily play 20 22 minutes a night i think he averaged close to that anyways last year in new jersey and defensively he'll buy in better he'll he'll you know

imagine it this way.

When the three of us are kind of off about our job or going to work on an off day, you're kind of, you know, you might cut a corner here or there.
