[Signing] Canucks sign Pius Suter
Ferlands_Head replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Suter is more of a winger than a C tbh like E.Rod wouldn’t want him taking faceoffs in crucial moments of a game. -
While I agree with most of your points here. The prospects drafted in the mid first round based on historical data have about a 50-60% chance of playing over 100 games. The chances of them being a high end player is even lower. Hronek is a proven top 4 already at 25 with room to grow still. He is absolutely a slam dunk imo.

Imagine if the Avalanche had gone through a rebuild like many Canuck fans are asking for and sold Mackinnon Landeskog and Rantanen instead of building around them. They won the cup because they surrounded their core with solid players through trades. ROR, Duchene and acquired solid pieces like Toews Manson Kadri etc.

(Rumour) 4 teams interested in J.T. Miller

That would be fun with EP40 D Petey and M Petey all on the ice at the same time. -

Amazing how in this trade we’re acquiring all those assets none of which will improve our defense which is 3rd worst in the league. Instead we create an even greater surplus of top 6 forwards which we don’t need. -

A late first that’s likely to bust. I get why you’d be happy to do it. But I’m not ok with trading a ppg dman in his prime for a few lottery tickets. The young players we will be receiving likely won’t come near Hughes upside. Also on a team that’s worst in the league at zone breakouts it just doesn’t make any sense to trade our only dman who can effectively exit the zone. Our offense will suffer greatly. Even if we were to tear it down and rebuild you’d rebuild around Hughes and Petey, not trade him and get a bunch of lesser assets thus extending the rebuild. -

We don’t even know he will be a 1D in the NHL. But sure let’s trade our proven elite puck moving 1D for a guy who might become one. Ridiculous how overhyped prospects are on here. -
[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks
Ferlands_Head replied to HOFsedins's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I agree with everything you said here. Except we’ve all seen what Petey can do in the playoffs. Minny St Louis and VGK were no slouches physically. They even targeted him and he was still able to put up better than a ppg. He didn’t look like he was intimidated nor did it affect his game. -

No he isn't It's more of a 1A 1B 1C scenario, that's the kind of depth that wins cups -

Exactly, hard not to be excited about this team. We may not have a Crosby but keep an eye on EP this year, the way he ripped up the league in the last half is a sign of things to come. I'm fully expecting a breakout season where he hits 90+ pts. PATRIC HORNQVIST- SIDNEY CROSBY - CONOR SHEARY CHRIS KUNITZ - EVGENI MALKIN - BRYAN RUST NICK BONINO - CARL HAGELIN - PHIL KESSEL MATT CULLEN - ERIC FEHR - TOM KUHNHACKL This was Pittsburgh's lines for their cup run in 2016 VS TANNER PEARSON- JT MILLER - BROCK BOESER CONOR GARLAND - ELIAS PETTERSSON - VASILY PODKOLZIN KUZMENKO - BO HORVAT - ILYA MIKHEYEV HOGLANDER - LAZAR - DICKINSON Our forwards stack up vs the best in the league. Goaltending is elite, this is going to be a fun team to watch. -

100% This is the Pittsburgh Model, stacked up front, weak defense with one elite puck moving D and solid goaltending. -
[Rumour] Rangers shopping Nils Lundkvist

They can Package Chytil Lundkvist and a 1st for Pavel Zacha -

Pass, Hoglander will at least be an NHL player. Lundkvist has great offensive tools but can't defend and has been passed by Zac Jones a 3rd round pick who's a year younger than him.
