The top of the 2026 NHL Draft is getting more and more interesting as some mock drafts have both San Jose and Vancouver passing on the talented Swedish winger. The Canucks cannot let that happen, and on this episode of Canucks Conversation we explain why that’s the case.

I donāt know why people are so gay for Gavin. Iād take Ivar, Viggo, Caleb and the 4 defensemen ahead of him. Thatās right, I said it. Did I stutter?
McKenna has by far the highest ceiling of this yearās crop. The Leafs arenāt letting him slide down the draft, and f they do, Grier is way too smart to let him get away.
Gotta take Reid or stenberg at 3 but hv feeling canucks love malholtra
mckenna is to small perimeter player
And there is no option but to choose Stenberg if he drops to third. He is by far the better prospect. He competes vs men; Malholtra plays vs teenagers
The Sharks will be drafting Stenberg or McKenna. You guys can sort out the rest.
GMMG is a BPA GM and those two are in their own tier. However, the Sharks may swap picks if you all include Willander.
GMMG said heās willing to listen, but itās gonna cost a lot. Donāt need Buium or Heineken. They already have a smallish offensive RD in Pohlkamp and Heineken doesnāt fit their timeline.
Malhotra has said publicly that 'it'd be weird playing for Vancouver'. That disqualifies him in my mind.
man I have a good feeling about Bjork. Getting Pavel Bure vibes from him.
New fear unlocked
Manny has taught his son how to play centre and how to be a leader and I mean heās an nhl calibre player he taught him the right way I think I just donāt see how you can pass up on a centre and heās also been scouted as having captain tendencies now I know Quinn had that, but I donāt know I just see Kaleb as the better pick
Wingers aren't that important, guys like Kucherov, Pastrnak and Rantenen are just boat anchors holding their teams back. Why would you draft a winger so high?š
