Brendan Gaunce has been taken by the Vancouver Canucks with the 26th selection in the 2012 draft.

Gaunce has one of the best work ethics in the draft class. He is a high-character player and a fierce competitor, willing to play at both ends of the ice. He was used in almost every situation this past season with Belleville and was one of the most valuable players in the OHL. He doesn't excel in any particular area in his offensive game, but he still managed to produce at a point per game pace in the 2011-12 campaign. He projects to add secondary scoring at the NHL level, which would be especially helpful for an already deep Vancouver team. The biggest question mark with Gaunce is his skating, as he doesn't possess great speed. However, he makes up for it by doing all the little things that NHL teams covet. Look for Gaunce to have an impact as a consistent two-way forward at the next level.
