Canucks: Wingers that are potential mid-round draft targets

When it comes to players selected in the third round and beyond, they generally lack one crucial aspect of their game. The Vancouver Canucks scouts look to identify prospects they feel can overcome concerns and develop those deficiencies.

Some are very skilled but are lacking size, while others may show limited offensive upside, and are most suited for a bottom-six role. Here are some of the wingers possibly available when the Canucks select in those rounds.

Veeti Miettinen

2019-2020 Club: Kiekko-Espoo U20 (Jr “A” SM-Liiga Finland)

Position: RW

Height: 5’9″ Weight: 159 lbs

Vancouver Canucks Infant Family Holiday Pajamas - 18 mo

The obvious concern for Veeti Miettinen is his lack of size.
