[Discussion] Minor Players You Want


Recommended Posts

Well since signing Tanev, there is a good chance we are going to have to trade Sbisa. I would say a good option for a replacement would be Brett Bellamore depending on what it would take to get him.

Low Cap Hit

Big

Hits

Is a +4 on a crappy Carolina team

Positive Underlying Stats.

Of course promoting from within is more likely, so we will have to see what JB and Co. do in the offseason, but Sbisa and Bieksa are our only Dmen that hit so we need a Dman that will make opposing forwards thing twice about cutting to the net or going to dig pucks out of the corner in our zone.

Just a thought: but if we trade Sbisa for a 2nd and a 3rd maybe that 3rd would be enough to get Bellemore? Or maybe Sbisa for Bellemore and a 2nd? IDK

Isn't that the basic purpose of the entire proposals section?

Most proposals are already not for minor players. Kind of a lazy random thread.

My point was not to make a proposal, just to dream. I just want to hear what players you all are interested in, not necessarily how the Canucks could get them.

I'll edit and add to discussion:

One of the players I always like to watch is Cody Eakin out of Dallas. He plays hard and walks the line sometimes, while being effective offensively.

Did you not read the part where Sbisa and his 3millionish qualifying offer salary/caphit is going to have to go? So:

Hamhuis

Tanev

Edler

Bieksa

Sbisa Bellamore

Corrado

Clendening

Stanton

Make sense now?

If we can move Luca for a pick (unlikely offer sheet or dealing of rights) and trade Juice, I wouldn't mind seeing us moving Corrado as part of a deal for Trevor Daley (not sure he's "minor" but he's not a star like Benn or Seguin). I think that he'd really help with our back end scoring issue, as he's got the wheels and shot to be a difference maker.

At $3.3 M that's also a decently low salary to take on for a mobile D-man who can create things off the rush for a slower D-group. Lastly, he's a naturally better right-side guy than left but was only put to the left to accommodate for Klingberg so I think he could be a fit with us if we move Juice.

Edler - Tanev

Hammer - Daley

Stanton - Clendening

Weber, (get another monstrous depth D-man for physicality)

Maybe Sbisa's rights, Corrado and a 3rd? The cost to qualify Luca would already basically cover the cost to get Trevor, and we could move Juice to solve other problems.

&^@# to the no. Corrado is our best D prospect.
