Pears Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 After my last attempt at a Canucks-Blue Jackets trade, I'm struggling mightly with this one. I can't decide on whether trading Schneider is the best move for the team, or somehow convince Luongo to waive his no-trade to Columbus. To Vancouver: Rick Nash + Jack Johnson To Columbus: Roberto Luongo or Cory Schneider + David Booth + Mason Raymond + Keith Ballard + Manny Malhotra + 2014 2nd rounder Sign: Ryan Suter: 8 years @ $56 millon = $7 millon per Kristian Huselius: 1 year @ $2 million Canucks 2012-13 line up: 1A) Sedin - Sedin - Nash = $20 million 1B) Burrows - Kesler - Higgins = $8,900,000 3) Hansen - Schroeder - Jensen = $3,225,000 4) Kassian - Lapierre - Bitz = $2,570,000 $34,695,000 This is the best group of forwards we've ever had. No other group comes close to it. And if we can't get Penner and Jensen is ready for the big show, bring him on up for the third line. 1D A) J. Johnson - Suter = $19,357,412 1D Hamhuis - Edler = $7.75 1D C) Tanev - Bieksa = $5.5 $32,625,412 With that defense there is no order of pairings. They are all number 1 pairings. Schneider = $3.0 Lack = $.900 $4,400,000 Total cap = $71,225,000/70,300,000 PP1: Sedin - Sedin - Nash Edler - Kesler PP2: Higgins - Schroeder - Burrows Suter - Johnson PK1: Kesler - Burrows Johnson - Suter PK2: Sedin - Nash Hamhuis - Bieksa Thoughts? Honestly, this team looks virtually unstoppable. It has the size to absolutley run people over in the playoffs. Once again, which on of Luongo or Schneider would get the deal done? EDIT: Just counted all the salary caps up. We're a tad over the limit with this roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jägermeister Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Columbus is getting fleeced. I dont know if our package could land Nash let alone Nash and Johnson. Suter is probably not going to sign here, but hey why not. No thanks to the Penner and Semin signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sampy Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 CLB is getting ripped off. Even adding our 1st would not get this deal done, though I really like JJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kass Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 How in the hell would that fit under cap? we are adding in over 20 mil alone from Suter JJ and Nash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
komodo1970 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Personally, I think MG may make an offer for Rick Nash if he's willing to waive his no trade clause, but in no way do I think he's going to overpay for him. Honestly, I see a lot of threads that are willing to throw their homes into hypethetical deals. And then I see them putting him on with the Sedins. Burrows has played with them for years now. Why does everyone keep trying to fix what isn't broke. The first line is great; it's the second line that needs improvement. If we were to, miraculously, get Nash, I think the second line would be his future. Second line: Jensen - Kesler - Nash But, realistically, I don't think there's a chance we get him. Their franchise player is a second liner on our team, and I don't think he'll be OK with that. Could be an amazing second line though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froggy Fresh Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Lol at Luongo/Schneider plus a ton of spare parts for Nash AND Jack Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack Attack Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Top 4's a mess. All of them play the left side so it wouldn't work at all. Add in the aforementioned cap problems and there's no way. Besides, Gillis already talked about how he wouldn't trade for Nash. He's a great player, but this team can't justify spending $7.8 on him.

The Sedin's 6th Sense Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 That wouldn't even be enough to get 1 of Nash or Johnson and yet you add them both in lol. Columbus laughs and laughs.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beluga Whale Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Take Johnson out of the deal and they still wouldn't accept. But i am impressed that you refrained from adding Parise for once lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
