laxgoalie Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Nashville is in need of a scoring winger because of the injury to Hornqvist, and the Canucks could use a big young centerman. Don't flame, just suggest ways to improve the trade. To NSH: Raymond Schroeder 2013 2nd Rounder To VAN: Colin Wilson 2013 5th Rounder This is assuming Raymond can keep his current play up, increasing his trade value. Also Nashville is in a slump as of right now. Vancouver Lineup: (With Kesler and Booth): Sedin-Sedin-Kassian Booth-Kesler-Burrows Higgins-Wilson-Hansen Malhotra-Lappiere-Weise Bieksa-Hamhuis Edler-Bieksa Tanev-Ballard Schneider Luongo Nashville Lineup (Once Hornqvist gets back): Kostitsyn-Fisher-Erat Raymond-Legwand-Hornqvist Yip-Gaustad-Spaling Bourque-Smith-Halishuk Weber-Josi Klein-Hannan Ellis-Gill RInne Mason EDIT: Have no clue what Nashvilles line up is, jsut kinda pieced it together form their roster...

Caboose Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Hahaha, but I can see Raymond getting 30 goals, which is more than any player on Nashville last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksFanMike Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 nah i wouldn't do it.... we need a checking 3rd line center, not a scoring one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Vintage Canuck- Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I agree that Raymond needs a new fresh start, but I don't think he would want to play under Nashville's defensive system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 If Raymond plays in 70+ games next year, and doesn't score 28+ goals, then I will eat some of the cat gut leather off my old lacrosse stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossram Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Colin Wilson is a scoring winger. Why are they trading him for Raymond? This deal just seems superfluous. I think we overpay too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jägermeister Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I'd do it. Wilson can play centre or the wing, so he could play 2nd line centre while Kes is out, then either move to the wing or play on the 3rd line once he comes back. He's got good offensive potential and is very strong on and off the puck. Should be a very good second line player in his prime. Of course that being said, I don't think Nashville would do it.

elvis15 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 While I don't mind Colin Wilson, why do we give up so much for him? Both Schroeder and Raymond, and we give them a 2nd for their 5th? How is this a good deal for us, especially when we have plenty of young centers coming up in the next few years. Once Kesler's back, we'll be ok for centers, with Manny and Lappy in the bottom 6 and Kesler and Henrik in the top 6, and guys like Burrows and Higgins able to fill in as well as Schroeder now (and Ebbett I guess too).

Master Mind Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 We already have a lack of scoring with the absence of Kesler and Booth, we can't afford to take away more of our offence. I see this trade as a big downgrade overall. And to those still saying Raymond sucks, watch him play without a bias, since he's been playing solid all season.

papagrizz Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 i think a good spot for luongo would be phoenix, im sure he would sell some tickets and he obviously likes hot places(florida) phoenix's goaltending is really bad, both their goalies are doing terribly and aren't getting any better. Luongo, Schroeder, for mike smith/La Barbera, Korpikoski/bissonette, hanzal So phoenix gets a good goalie and we get a pretty crapty goalie, but atleast they're inexpensive at 2m or 1.5m. They both have only 1 year left and im sure by next year Lack will be ready. We obviously need to take one to give them room for luongo, and for canucks to have a backup. Korpikoski/bissonette is the real value of the trade- both great prospects, young, playing well. And Hanzal fits that 3rd line center spot perfectly. He's 6"6, 240, and a great checker. He can score some points shown by last years playoffs. To fill in that void we trade Schroeder, hes good but we dont need him if we have hanzal, and hes small and canucks are trying to get big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
