DaMacNamedDre Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 You want Lapierre to be replaced? He's a very solid fourth line centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THERETOOL Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I'll revise my post: I actually think the team could use a two way bottom 6 centre with size, regardless of Schroeder's performance. I have a feeling when the intensity notches up in the playoffs Schroeder might be converted to wing. Who knows?, maybe he becomes a fast scoring winger for the Kesler line.

Red Light Racicot Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I think our special teams need a shake up. Our PP is 19th and our PK is 22nd. Gillis was never able to cover for the losses of Ehrhoff (and now perhaps Salo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoneypuckOverlord Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 if possible please bring in an offensive defencemen. Maybe try to get Vishnovski out of Long Island or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forsy Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I agree. Adding two superstars would improve the team. All we need is two superstars to replace a couple average players. Make it so. EDIT: now that I think of it, I don't understand why the team isn't already full of superstars. Is Gillis lazy or dumb or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mookie Wilson Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 A team full of superstars cannot work in a cap system. Upgrading 2 positions (1D, 1Top6) from a $4.5M Dman and a $4.25M Forward to 6 or 7 million dollar dman and forward are possible under the cap with a trade of luongo clearing out the difference. Not that this is necessarily possible given the current trade climate, but I guess jumping to conclusions is the best thing that can be mustered around here.

NP-4815162342 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Gotta love Edler's drop passes that's why we use him over garrison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peaches Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 We could use... 2-Way Centre for depth Right Handed Depth Defence man A player like Jay McClement or Vladmir Sobotka (not specifically them) as a depth 2-way centre. A player like Kevin Klein (not specifically him) as a depth right handed defence man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananas Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 True #1 D-man, maybe an upgrade on Volpatti/Wiese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodee Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I would still trade Booth for Clowe or Ryan (if it could be done) I don't like seeing Volpatti fight guys 20 lbs bigger than him even when he puts up a pretty good show. He is going to get hurt. Clowe would have mangled Reaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc_devil Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 A coaching staff with a better system that gets the team fired up.Someone who allows them to attack when the opportunity is there not just defend and short time management shift crap.

Mookie Wilson Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 The Canucks will not be acquiring a superstar. Such fantasies cannot reasonably be considered plugging a hole. There are two superstars amidst the group of pending UFAs: Getzlaf and Perry. Does anyone really want to see players such as Schroeder, Kassian, Jensen and Gaunce traded for a couple months out of Perry or Getzlaf? Do you know what happens when an organization doesn't have cost-effective young players filling out its rosters? Marc Chouinard, Jan Bulis and Rory Fitzpatrick get signed. That's how windows of opportunity close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIBdaQUIB Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 You know the Canucks have been one of the highest scoring teams in each of the past few seasons, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cammy Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I think we have the right amount of dollars locked up in the D - just how they are distributed are wrong, to many middle of the road reasonable paid guys, I would be happier with downgrading one of the D to a cheap but reliable 3rd pair d man and use the extra cash to have a leader amongst the D. (right sided preferably) Also I like Schroeder on the 3rd line, good cost good player, however could maybe use another winger to go with him and Hanson who can crash and bang but also make the draws in the centre. My current Knowledge of the NHL isn't au fait so I'm sure some of you guys would be able to identify someone that fits that mould at a reasonable cost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
