ABurrows14 Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 @2013..Wow We need: One or even two top six forward(s) who will score, not another one who just skates at the net really fast and doesn't bury the puck. Depth on D and a solid back-up. Trade: Luo, ($$ $ad to say, hate all you want, but he's the best goalie we've ever had, ever). Ballard, Mayray ( because he hasn't figured out how to score) and Booth ( again, no finish). But what if MG actually traded Scheids? And Edler?

YEGCanuck Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I think what needs to happen first before any other moves is Lu to be traded. The outcome of that trade will help to determine what Gillis needs to do the fill out their roster with the right mix of talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peaches Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 We need a: Top 6 playmaker Depth d-men I think manny/lappy/schroeder can play as 3rd center Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kessywessy Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I'd say if we get a good return from Florida in the Luongo trade, we should flip one or two of those pieces to Nashville for Weber. So something like this Vancouver: Weiss Huberdeau/Bjugstad/Gubranson Versteeg 1st Florida: Luongo Tanev Schroeder Rodin 1st 2nd Luongo, Tanev, 1st = Weiss, Huberdeau Schroeder, Rodin, 2nd = Versteeg, 1st then Vancouver: Weber Nashville: Bieksa Versteeg Booth Raymond Malhotra Ballard 1st Then this is what I see our roster as after signings Sedin - Sedin - Doan Huberdeau - Weiss - Kesler Burrows - Mueller - Kassian Higgins - Lapierre - Hansen Edler - Weber Hamhuis - Garrison UFA - UFA/Connauton/Sauve Schneider Lack I don't know who we could pick up for the bottom pair but that top 4 is probably one of the best in the league. I'm confident that Gillis can convince Tallon to include Huberdeau in the deal. This might not happen, but again that defense will probably be one of the toughest to play against.

cIutch Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 some of these guys must be smoking meth to be thinking these deals would go down go back to nhl12 far as im concerned all we really need is a 2nd line /3rd line center that can hold it down till kesler gets back , oh and doan would be nice these fans with high free agent expectations and never realizing we have prospects willing to step up really irritate me , you get all caught up thinking vans going to get some big UFA 30 teams are going after when theres no chance and get all angry when the obvious nothing happens and act like gillis is an idiot for not making some move that could easily frack your team over for years to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one night Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Right now we need to wait for the Lou trade on what we get in return. The only thing I would do is get Brule signed as we are thin down the middle. I much rather have for a 1st line of Sedins & Burrow, 2nd with Booth, Kesler & Jensen, 3rd line of Higgins, Brule and Hansen, 4th Malholtra, La Pierre & Weise/Kassian. Defence looks okay, but would like to see Sauve and Connauton get a few games this year. Schneider and Lack should hold down the fort, if not you can always bring in aVet at a later date, ie December if thigs don't work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain-Canuck2562 Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Because Weber is likely headed to arbitration with the preds meaning he will sign a one year deal again.... next year he will be a UFA, not an RFA so he is free to sign with whomever he wants. We have as good a chance as any team to sign him given that he is from BC and wants to play for a cup contender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. J. Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I'd rather keep Lack down for one more year and have a NHL vet be the back-up to Schneids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teksys Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Here we go: I think our D is fine. We have a solid top six and depth on defense with the signing of Joslin and others in the system. We could add some depth but overall our D is extremely solid. Goaltending is not an issue as i think Lack is fine and we'll probably get Theodore back in the Luongo trade. I think our real issue is our forwards. We need a top six playmaking center and some grit, weise will not cut it. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
