Craig Button à propos de l’espoir des #Canucks Tom Willander : « Mon comparable pour lui est Charlie McAvoy, son développement à BU a été significatif et fort. Je ne vois pas 4 meilleurs défenseurs en Suède pour le mondial junior que Tom. »

A Charlie McAvoy type of defenseman is exactly what the Canucks need
I really want to see a D-Petey – Willander pairing at World Juniors. Would be a lot of fun and would be nice to see if there’s any early signs of chemistry. They’re both expected to make the team and are different hands, so it’s actually pretty realistic.
That sounds huge. From my understanding McAvoy isn’t elite at any one thing but is great at everything. That sort of Dman would be a fantastic addition to the roster. (in the coming 3 or so years I imagine)
Great to hear, unfortunately Craig Button is a terrible talent evaluator.
If Tom Willander can be anything like Charles, I will cream every day. That is an unbelievable comparisons I love how Charles plays. Hard hockey.
Let’s be honest. Craig hasn’t watched a single BU game all season.
I agree that’s a solid comparable for Tom, but he is nowhere near that today. He’s not even the Charlie McAvoy of the NCAA.
Just let him keep developing for a few years in college hockey, he’s a great defensive prospect we’ve got simmering.
He seems more like a bryan allen
