Lol really was hoping people wouldn't be dicks I just wanted to have some conversations I'm not claiming to know everything just researchiinggg ah

CORRECTION- would be keeping Edler as he has a no trade clause and 1 year left kn his contract so thats cool. Keep Edler. I thought his contract was up! I guess we would have to look into trading Tanev? Its hard to say there's so many opinions on the caps and trading etc. But I think the canucks is becoming a younger team and needs more firepower. Obvs we need experience in there. The defence is hard to say for me. Between Hughes, Edler, Myers, Rathbone, Juolevi and Stetcher; that might be our best group available? Tho idk if its worth getting rid of tanev for a prospect?

Hey thanks for the explanation on that. Makes sense! I'd love to see Hoglander make the jump though! Looking forward to next months draft season

I hope Leivo will be back but its still unsure right? He could be good with motte-gaudette-leivo ? Also i live Edler hes been with us forever and hes great at what he does. I just dont know if we can keep him. Maybe edler over tanev then? I would love to trade Pearson, idk why but im not a fan. He doesn't cut it as a 2nd line winger for me. With what you say there i would maybe just do: Miller- petty- boeser Hoglander-horvat-toffoli Motte-gaudette-leivo Macewan/lind/virtanen-beagle-sutter It gets harder towards the end lol, I'm not sure what they're gonna do for defence but like I've said I'd love to see Juolevi and Rathbone come play. Maybe trade somebody-we need a shake up down there.

Yeah thats totally possible! This is kinda just a personal wishlist in some regards. I would LOVE to keep Edler and I hope they do but from what I'm hearing its Edler or Tanev due to caps and stuff and I've liked Tanev with Hughes. See tbrowing Motte up was a curveball I threw in there. I see a lot of potential in him and idk if Toffoli Nd Motte should switch there but i thought it would be interesting. Horvat needs some fresh energies on his line. I really think Pearson should be traded. Also Sutter and Beagle are interchangeable to me, I think we keep one, idk which. And with Hoglander, I've been watching the WJC games of his and honestly he was pretty good and its been almost a year since then. I think he could add some good fresh energy and speed to the 2nd or 3rd line. After camp he may be ready, idk about Podz cuz of his age and stuff. I would love to see him but i don't see them bringing him on as a permanent linemate. I would love to have Juolevi come tho! Hopefully he makes the jump. I really want to see Rathbone as well. Maybe a new vet D man? I dont know! It's all ideas!

Haha absolutely, I'm in the middle of that right now! There's a few guys I'm not too familiar with yet. I would like to see a little more shuffling in the bottom 6 tho. And hoping they'll bring in- Juolevi, Hoglander, and Rathbone to shake things up if things go well at camp. Personally, I really don't like Pearson and don't think he belongs on the second line. I think Horvat needs a more interesting winger to make plays etc. I think Hoglander could be an interesting addition- I do think Leivo could be good with Gaudette and maybe pearson on that line? (Gaudette is a center) I also see one of Tanev or Edler going, considering the talk on contract caps and stuff. As for the goalies thats a tough choice to me, I want to keep Marky but appearantly its gonna be unlikely also considering Seattle coming in. I think we should pour our resources into Demko and have him grow with the team. Also i think Motte is underrated and shouldn't be a bottom liner.

I was brainstorming what some interesting lineups for next season could be. Just what I envisioned and thought was possible. Including some prospects id like to see. What would y'all like to see as some interesting lineups? Dont bully me lol

Hi, i'm pretty knew to all this but i've been looking into the details more and am really into some of the players we've got goin rn. I had some thoughts on what I think seem like good ideas and just wanted to see if anyone has some input. Pls educate and correct me if i'm being dumb lol From what i see on this contract list, the two players with ending contracts I think we should drop/trade would be Pearson and Edler. I do like Edler, but i've seen some talk saying they're probably going to part ways with him anyways coming up. - My thoughts on that is because they are both a little older they have kind of peaked performance wise and don't offer anything really special to our team. They are both just solid players, but I think it would be best to not re-sign or whatever considering our cap and stuff. I was looking into this kid we drafted in i think 2019 thats out at training camp: Nils Hoglander. He seems to be very interesting. Has a nice unique style and a nice and aggressive forecheck. But i was mostly impressed by his puck-handling and creativity. He seems like a perfect fit for Vacnouver and could offer something special. I was imagining him on a line with Pettersson and Miller. I feel like Miller's strength and aggression mixed with Pettersson's smarts and net area control, Hoglander's creative shooting and board work/ offensive puck control could make a really cool and killer line of forwards, with Hughes and Tanev on D. So, I would love to see him brought in for some games this coming 2021 season. With that, we could replace Pearson with Boeser from line 1, on with Horvat and Toffoli. The only other thing I would do is try and trade Edler or trade Pearson or draft etc. for a new D player. Probably someone with really good possession and strength for board battles etc. Since our contract cap is like maxed out almost or whatever, I feel it would be smart to bring in Hoglander and give him a shot since he's already signed. And, if he works out then we aren't expending anything for a new forward. But we really need to work on our offence and breaking through and controlling the puck. In this scenario basically i'm just suggesting bringing in Hoglander for some games next season. For some other help and shifting, maybe trading Pearson and Edler for a new defenceman- is that realistic? I'm not super clear on this contract and trading stuff. But if you get my gist what are some thoughts? Thx
