Gollumpus Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 OK, the obvious one is out (Neely for Pederson+).............. Of the rest (during my lifetime at least), the three that come to mind for me are......... Rick Vaive and Bill Derlego for Tiger Williams and Jerry Butler (I think this was the deal). Bure for Jovo, Gagner and ???? was it Morrison? Kassian for Hodgson If you can think of one better than the three above, please let me know and add it to the list. Of the three above, I would give us back Cody............5 goals, 5 assists in 10 games...........he'd be our leading scorer right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal:thecup Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Letting Larionov go so the Russian Ice Hockey Federation would not get part of his pay (I know, not a trade, but we lost a great player). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JensenFan2011 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Why would we want to do the Hodgson trade over? It is looking pretty good for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gollumpus Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 .............................................................................................. no just cause you don't agree with the way hodgson left doesn't mean that the trade was good. Hodgson is greater than kassian pretty much doubles him in goals and is playing well enough defense to play on the PK the only thing kassian is doing better is penalty minutes. you can not convince me that a 3rd line player is better than a 1st line player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucks fan in chicago Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Trading Samuelsson for Booth. Because we traded playoff experience for less points and a bigger cap hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mookie Wilson Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Reverse the Ballard trade. Trade Grabner for a pick or younger prospect. Re-sign Mitchell for 2 years, $6M. Instead of Ballard, we would have had Mitchell + 2 prospects similar in value to Quinton Howden (and one of them may have been Howden). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coryberg Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I'm under the impression that Florida would have liked to reverse the Ballard trade. They had to pay bernier's overpayed salary. Never even got a game out of grabner and quinton howden is a long ways away from becoming an NHL forward if ever. I'm 100% certain that they could have made a better deal. I do recall that there were 5-6 teams inquiring about Ballard who had stellar numbers before comming to Vancouver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coryberg Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I'd do the Hodgson trade over again. I think Cody can be a Brendan Morrison, andrew castles type player. Very dependable for putting up points and a smart player. Kassian could be a bertuzzi, maybe a lucic, maybe a buffuglien (if he gains 40lbs) or maybe a clowe. At worst he is a bigger Chris Neil. I'd rather have a big mean 20g 50pt winger than a small soft 20g 70pt center. Especially when our first 2 centers were set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niloc009 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Dude. You just contradicted yourself. You said you would reverse the Kassian-Hodgson deal, saying Cody could be a Bmo-type player, then you said you would rather have a big 50 point winger than a small 70 point center.

marleau_12 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Just searched up Canucks history of transactions. They traded a 2nd (Wayne Simmonds) and a 4th to LA for Sopel. Lame. Sulzer for Gragnani sucked too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brewdog Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 It's not reasonable to complain that it's a bad trade just because Cody is on pace for about 70 points (pro-rated). He's getting 18-20 minutes a night as the #1 center, feeding a legit 40-goal scorer. On the Canucks (with healthy Kesler), he's the #3 center feeding two 15-goal grinders. With Hank and Kes very likely our 1A and 1B centers for the next 4 years, there was never going to be a place for Cody that met his expectations.

hudson bay rules Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I'm still unsure if I'd undo the Peca/ Mogilny trade. Leaning towards a yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Man, I loved Mogilny back in the day. Does anyone remember the conditions which lead to his being traded? Was he (knowingly) unhappy here? Contract issues? What? As exciting as the West Coast Express was, I'd have loved to see Mogilny stick around.

Venom52 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Cam Neely obvioiusly. Probably the Grabner and 1st for Ballard trade as well, but at the time it made sense.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
