that their lack of tools probably makes them a much better bet to be Alex Dabrinkit than the guy, you know, XYZ guy who's taller or faster or can do all these other things, but just fundamentally can't play the game in his island.

Canucks Talk
Landon Ferraro on How the Canes' Were Built + Viggo Björck Hype

Canucks Talk
Landon Ferraro on How the Canes' Were Built + Viggo Björck Hype

Yes, I get it.

Canucks Talk
Landon Ferraro on How the Canes' Were Built + Viggo Björck Hype

Okay.

Canucks Talk
Landon Ferraro on How the Canes' Were Built + Viggo Björck Hype

No, you're the first person who ever laughed at that joke.

Let's take the Logan Stankoven example.

Canucks Talk
Landon Ferraro on How the Canes' Were Built + Viggo Björck Hype

On scoring profile, Logan Stankoven was an incredibly obvious pick where the Canucks drafted... Klimovic.

Canucks Talk
Landon Ferraro on How the Canes' Were Built + Viggo Björck Hype

Danila Klimovic in what, 41 or something?

Canucks Talk
Landon Ferraro on How the Canes' Were Built + Viggo Björck Hype

Yes, I believe that's right.
