Super_Canuck Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I don't think he's that good to deserve it... Now if it was an outstanding impact player like Rick Nash, then perhaps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Canuck Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Edler Kesler Jensen 1st Perry Allen Is probably what it would take to get Perry, would you do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferlands_Head Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 That is a big time over-payment. No one would do that for Perry. You'd want to acquire Perry to make your team better, not to make it worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p0o0o0f Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Yes I know, I'm not suggesting we do the trade, I'm simply suggesting that's what it would take to get him out of Anaheim remember we are going to be division rivals next year, so if we want him that's what it would take. I'm just wondering how many people here would do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Let's face it, the Canucks are not going to win a Cup once the Sedins retire and our offence consists of Jensen and Schroeder unless we snag some big-time free agents. We might as well go all-out now and suck for a few years, because it'd be better than blowing this one opportunity the franchise has. Schroeder, Ballard and a 1st for Perry. Throw in Jensen or Gaunce if that's not enough (should be, they're getting two quality 1st rounders and a depth defenceman for one forward. Sedin - Sedin - Perry Burrows - Kesler - Higgins Booth - Lapierre - Kassian Raymond - Pinizotto - Hansen Edler - Garrison Hamhuis - Bieksa Barker - Tanev Alberts Vandermeer Luongo Schneider Then maybe trade Schneider for a quality top-10 NHL defenceman and we have the cup.

Baggins Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Anaheim is currently second overall in the league. Why on earth would they trade Perry? Because you don't think they want a shot at the cup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucksnhl Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I like Perry, he's a very good player, totally hate playing against him. But Gaunce and Jensen are keepers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucksnhl Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 If we did somehow acquire him and convinced him to sign for less than Getzlaf, but just a bit more than Sedin money.. Then I'm in! Basically a top line of Art Ross, Rocket Richard, and Hart trophy winners........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noheart Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 We could offer every single one of our prospects, but Anaheim wouldn't trade Perry for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-a-n-u-c-k-s Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Perry is just Cooke with skillz and subtlety Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakrami Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 One simple question: Would getting Corey Perry be worth selling the farm for??? The farm would not be the only thing that we would have to give in return as we would have to create some real cap space in order to be able to fit him in under the cap. In regards to farm though, im speaking of players such as Jordan Schroeder, Niklas Jensen, Eddie Lack, and Frank Corrado. Giving up all of those guys would be insanity and simply not worth it. But a trade for Corey Perry would have to include one of Jensen or Carrado, and one of Schroeder or Lack plus a roster player (not named burrows or kesler) and perhaps a 2nd round pick. What would we be getting in return though? A heart trophy winner and one of the best goal scoring and nastiest power forwards in the league!! (I tried to post his stats but the format got all screwed up) This is a point per game play who alongside Kesler would create a 1st Line B and could also be a legit winger for the sedins when things get rough. Imagine how pissed teams would be when they play against a Perry Kesler combo? With the two buy outs available in the new CBA, in the summer we buy out Ballard and Booth and we have enough cap space to resign both Burrows and Perry. You hate him when hes on the other team, but i can guarentee you'd love him in a canuck jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

menace Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I love when it is suggested that we trade all our under performers for another teams star. I don't think another Nhl team is going to go for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocanuckzgo Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Adding big names won't win us the cup. Playing hard will. We've seen spurts of the latter from this team in the last couple of years, most notably in 2011 playoffs but it's been inconsistent. With the Sedins healthy and everyone playing their role and playing it hard we should win the cup. If we don't it's going to be because another team out worked us, not because they had more big name players on their team. That said, I don't give a frack about the farm or any of those players you mentioned. They're unhatched eggs that are worthless to us right now. The Sedins are only going to get worse and they are our only chance at the cup. We need to win now or else struggle for the next 10-15 years before going deep again.

Tortorella's Rant Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Hell no. If they were going to do this, they should have done it back in the Cup run or even last season. Not now when the team is evidently weaker by a mile. You can afford to make a couple trades (goaltending), get a few pieces that we do need and then take our chances with that. Hey, it might work, stranger things have happened -- that's why they play the games after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trotch Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Not a chance. Some of us think Kesler has a bad ethic at the best of times... Perry is a bum and a poor sport. Not a good mix for the Canucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
