Guest Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 With the acquisition of Gudbranson, we suddenly have a potential logjam on defense. By draft day, I would imagine that Benning should have a good read on whether resigning Hamhuis is a realistic option. If it is, then to clear not only room, but some cap, I would propose that Sbisa would become a very tradable asset. He's still young, he (at times) looks like he is beginning to "get it", and realistically he doesn't have that bad of a cap number. I don't think we really have the assets to move back into the top 10 to grab one of the big three D-men. But...Boston is getting old really fast on the blueline. Sbisa, and his willingness to hit, would be a good fit in Beantown. Let Chara tutor him a little on the finer points of playing D, and he could really help them. As for the trade... Sbisa to Boston, add in next year's 3rd (or add in Brisebois; between Larsen, Pedan, Subban, Tate Olson and Biega, I don't see Brisebois realistically playing for Vancouver) Vancouver gets Boston's 1st round (14th overall) With that pick, we draft Riley Tufte, let him mature a couple/few years, hopefully he turns into something special. He already has a quality you can't coach; Size! And if you're gonna flame this, ok. I've been guilty of not getting player values correct before. Just make it intelligent, instead of something like..."you're an idiot" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonny_Bohonos_14 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I think you missed a space in the title: 1 4th pick (proposal) That would be a lot closer to his actual value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintPatrick33 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 By stating you think Spizza is "beginning to get it" do you mean he will take 8 seconds behind the net waiting to make a pass, as opposed to last years 10 seconds? If so, does that make him worth a first round pick? Regards, SP33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt Nirvanagut Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I knew someone would eventually propose a 1st rounder for Sbisa trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocksterh8 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 you should be able to get a 2nd for him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than one time last season I actually yelled at my TV : "Just #$%&ing leave it there and skate away, you potato brain, fuuuuu$% sakes!" I he did improve a bit though, just not with the puck in his own end. Massive brainfarts behind the net. What gives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Frk Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Sbisa is a slow blue liner on a bad contract. How in the world do you think he could fetch a 1st round pick!?! No Way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCNeil Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 LMAO. I am not sure if this is a joke or not.....but it's funny either way. But OH YEAH if Boston will do this, I would be all over it. Maybe we can ask about Burrows and Higgins too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What gives? loll yea the "break my TV" moment occurred when both Weber and Sbisa were on the Ice and they passed it all the way back into our own zone, with Sbisa ending up behind the net with the puck waiting to move forward again. Even Garrett said "they passed the puck into their own zone" LOL TBH, Sbisa did improve a lot from his first year, he was a lot more stable in his own zone, but he still cannot handle the puck on his stick, or make quick decisions, a necessity in todays NHL.
