The Vancouver Canucks could trade down to select Moritz Seider

A lot of people are drunk on Moritz Seider.

Maybe Canucks GM Jim Benning is feeling tipsy, too, especially after such a successful 2019 Ice Hockey World Championship in Germany last December, when a 17-year-old Seider captained his under-20 team to a Division 1A victory and a promotion to the main division in 2020.

Seider led all Div 1A defencemen with one goal and six assists, celebrating his international success on home ice. According to the various rankings noted by Eliteprospects.com, Seider is a bonafide first round pick who ranks anywhere from 10th to 26th overall.
