jypark14 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Clearly the Canucks currently have way too many forwards Some people have been speculating that Hansen might be traded Burrows declined to waive his NTC Assuming that we still have a gaping hole in the top 6 forward spot do you think JB will make a move to land a decent forward?

zombieksa Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 The order of things to come most likely. 1. Sign Vey 2. Sign Weber 3. Make a trade 4. Sign Tanev if he isn't in trade 5. Sign Virtanen/McCann to contracts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insomniac604 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Minus RFA signings, I believe we are done.The only exception would be if a team out there desperately needs a trade.There are several that have cap issues who still need forwards.Also teams that are having trouble re-signing their guys.

Rick Grimes Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Honestly, I think he is, any other moves will probably be signings. JB & Linden seem to like to get things done as fast as possible instead of waiting for months on end until Luongo's trade value is next to nothing and then we end up getting Florida's scraps for the 99th time..

CanucksFanMike Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 given that he asked Burrows to waive his NTC likely means he isn't done..... we have a surplus of forwards it only makes sense that he is looking at dealing a few of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind that line up.... Just wish we had a future #1 center on the second line coming up ala Johansen. Then we'd be set for a long time.

Thats what I read somewhere. Maybe he asks him again before the trade deadline and snags a good pick for the 2015 draft. I could see Burrows going to Montreal for some reason.

DownUndaCanuck Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Wouldn't be surprised if Hansen gets traded for a pick or prospect, hopefully not a pick because he's worth no more than a 3rd. I'd be happy to go into the season with this: Sedin - Sedin - Vbrata Jensen - Bonino - Kassian Hansen - Matthias/Vey - Higgins Burrows - Richardson - Matthias/Vey Dorsett/Sestito Edler - Tanev Hamhuis - Bieksa Sbisa - Corrado Stanton/Weber Miller Lack The entire season depends on how the Sedins, Jensen/Kassian, Miller and Edler play. If the twins have even around 70 point seasons, Jensen and Kassian can pot 20 goals each and Edler gets back to being a + player, with 40-50 points, this Canucks team will definitely make the playoffs and may even make it to the second round. Heck, even if they don't and Miller has one of his sparkling Vezina years, it may be very similar to what Luongo did in 2007 when he single-handedly carried a crappy Canucks team to the 2nd round.

It's funny because everytime you saw Gillis, you would think he should get some more sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

higgyfan Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 ^^ Really! Just let the team play for a bit...see how they gel. There's no need to trade anyone just yet. Sestito will be the 13th guy. Lots of choices up front and there will be a lot of competition for the 2nd and 3rd lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
