Canucks Prospect

Canucks Prospect (5/14)

  1. My hot take: David Reinbacher is the steal of this draft. Did you see and hear how humble that kid is during his interview? I've seen a trend in the past 8 or so years. The more humble a player he/she is about something, they seem to do so much greatness in their careers.
  2. Before I make my proposal, there are only three ways that the Canucks get Bedard. 1. Canucks win draft lottery 2. Bedard pulls a Lindros to come to Vancouver 3. Vancouver signs him as a UFA in 2030/31 (take into consideration a possible lockout between now & then) Now for the proposal... To NYR: Bo Horvat (50% retained salary), NYR 2023 4th (from the Motte trade) + VAN 2024 6th To VAN: Alex Lafreniere + NYR 2023 2nd To PIT: Connor Garland + Luke Schenn (30% retained salary) To VAN: Kaspari Kapanen + NJD 2023 3rd (from Marino Trade) To MIN: Brock Boeser & Kyle Burroughs (50% retained salary) To VAN: Matt Dumba + MIN 2023 4th At the draft, assuming we pick 7th overall, where we are in the standings right now: To whomever has the 1st OA: Alex Lafreniere, Jonathan Lekkerimaki, VAN 2023 1st (7th OA), NYR 2023 2nd, NJD 2023 3rd, and VAN 2024 1st To VAN: 2023 1st overall to get Bedard
  3. Miller, Lekkerimaki, 2023 1st, 2nd & two 4ths + our 2024 1st FOR 1st Overall *** Only if we wind up at 5th overall or worse
  4. Has anyone pre-ordered a reverse retro jersey from vanbase? If so, have you gotten confirmation to pick it up yet? If not, how long do you estimate before pickup is available?

      I ordered the orange shirt from them. It was delivered in two days to my mail box. Not sure about a jersey.

      I ordered from VanBase before.  I forgot how long it took.  I think like a week or two.  I live in Seattle, so it had to pass customs. 

  5. Is that really two games in a row where we get cut up with a high stick to no call?? Wow. And we get called for this one. What's next? A 5-minute major against us for getting high sticked?
  6. If anyone just saw the play Slafkovsky just made that led to his penalty shot, plus his penalty shot. What a player. We need him.

      The Canucks need a lot of things. 

      Some are possible.

      Some aren't.

      He might go 2nd overall...  

       

      I also see a world where the two d-men go 2 and 3.  

       

      There's more draft gurus on this board, but I think that Slafkovsky goes anywhere between 2-6.  Zero chance he falls outside of that range IMO.

      If I'm NJ I'm running up to the podium to take him. It's not like they can't use a power forward either. He's such a can't-miss prospect.  

  7. So, I have really gotten back on the Canucks bandwagon hardcore again. I've always been a fan, but I think this next season could be a big one. So far, the Canucks lines and D-pairings look something like this with everyone who is under contract for next season. Miller-Pettersson- -Horvat- Pearson-Dickinson-Podkolzin - - OEL-Myers Hughes- Dermott-Poolman Hunt, Schenn Demko-Martin That is 56.4/82.5 salary committed to 16 players, including the buyout money to Holtby, Virtanen, and Ferland's LTIR $$$. Players who start in AHL: Rathbone, Hoglander, Burroughs, Dowling and Woo. For the discussion part, what moves would you like to see the Canucks make? Fill in the blanks. For me, I would like to see something along the lines of this: Trade: To NJD: Garland, 15th OA, our 2022 3rd round pick (79th) and our 2023 2nd round pick To VAN: 2nd OA Draft: Juraj Slavkovsky (0.925 ELC) and put him into the lineup. Signings and Re-signings: Re-sign Lammikko, Highmore and Hunt to no more than 2.5 million spread around them (0.825-0.850 salary) Re-sign Boeser to a contract no higher than 6 million (1, 2 or 3 years) - there's 21 players now with 9.525 million added (65.125/82.5 now). Sign Filip Forsberg to an 7 year $64 million deal (9.142 AAV) Sign Nick Deslauriers to a 3 year deal at $6.75 million (2.250 AAV) Sign Noel Acciari to 2 years at $3.5 million (1.750 AAV) Sign Josh Manson to 5 years at $25 million (5.000 AAV) All of this puts the Canucks at 82.39/82.5 After, Ferland's LTIR will kick in a little extra cap room for call-ups. New lineup looks like this: Miller-Pettersson-Forsberg Slafkofsky-Horvat-Boeser Pearson-Dickinson-Podkolzin Deslauriers-Lammikko-Lockwood Highmore (Hoglander, Dowling) OEL-Myers Hughes-Manson Dermott-Poolman Hunt, Schenn (Rathbone, Burroughs) Demko-Martin (DiPietro, Silovs) (Bracketed players represent AHL) I think going all in and bridging the gap with a star now would be beneficial for this season and going forward. Locking up someone like Forsberg can give the team a boost to the current roster. But if the Canucks are only fighting for a playoff spot, trading one of Miller, Horvat or Boeser could give the team some assets going forward for a re-tool/re-build. I also believe we have a lot of other good players waiting in the wings like Linus Karlsson and Danila Klimovich who could get looks this season. I also think Poolman can have a bounce-back season under a new system while keeping him to 3rd pairing and PK roles. If Slafkovsky doesn't make the team, someone like Hoglander can step right into a 2nd/3rd line role. What do you think? I (hopefully) won't be making many more proposals and will ride out this offseason, excited for what is to come.
  8. I see, I see. I was trying to find the most affordable RHD to pair with Hughes moving forward. I was originally looking at Parayko, but I didn't realize he re-signed with STL.
  9. I changed the Cernak deal to a 2023 1st. And I think 3 picks plus a top-6 forward at a reasonable and controllable contract for Slafkovsky is fair value. I could still be wrong though.
