OfficeDonkey Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 7 hours ago, mll said: I was only commenting on Bowey being traded for Hansen. Khurshudyan wrote back in January that the indication is that Washington does not want to tinker with their roster. They feel they are already a playoff-ready team and are particularly content with their forward group. The only acquisition they are looking to make is a depth D (à la Tim Gleason, Mike Weber the previous years) because they aren't as deep at that position unlike at F. Maybe the Burakowsky injury changes things but doubtful it would be at the expense of Bowie. Teams are so much more willing to move picks this year. I love how some ppl actually think we could land Bowey for Hansen. Caps already gave away Forsberg for Erat, hard to see them make another terrible move like this in such a short period of time. Not to mention the trade value isn't even close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hansen returns Bowey, and JB doesn't make that deal, he should be FIRED! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since he'll be over 35 we can continue to sign him to 1 year deal with performance bonuses. He'd be a cheap cap hit yet could still get the money he deserves if he can keep up this kind of play. We can use that cap to bring in some serious muscle to our bottom 6. No offense to Dorsett but we need a guy that can play like him but that's 30+lbs bigger and 3+ inches taller. If we aren't gonna win games then lets batter and bruise our opponents and destroy whomever tries to mess with our youth. His name is Gudbransson, and as soon as people will stop pretending he has the slightest clue how to play defense, is as soon as he can be made a bottom 6 winger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best defensive team with only 126 goals against. 2knd best offensive team. Not having any impending cap or player issues for next year. The time to win is now. A guy who can be deployed to add speed and grit, that plays a hard nosed defensive game, can chip in goals, particularly off transition, jump up the line up as someone inevitably gets hurt > Is exactly what they need. And Bowey is a good prospect. But not blue chip. He's not going to take Niskanen or John Carlson's defensive or scoring shifts on the point as a right handed shot two way D. Which is what he is hoped to become as a player. Or he would have blown into the NHL and beat Nate Schmidt, or someone else off the roster. I'd spend him if I were the caps. Hey you make a great case and I agree and I too would welcome Bowey with open arms and a fist pump but I don't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they will do something. If they can do it without trading him I am sure they would prefer it. Possibly draft picks, but we'll see? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rush17 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Imagine if Burrows and a low tier prospect and a 5th could net us a 2nd and a 3rd? We would all be cheering in the streets! We could hold a parade when he re-signs :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sbisa was god awful his first year and people wanted him gone. Now he's having a career year. Could be the same with Gudbranson. If he improves as much as Sbisa has I think he'll have more potential to make more of an impact than Sbisa is currently. Very similar situation IMO. Only difference is This is the 1st time Gudbranson has been traded and to a west team whereas Sbisa stayed in the Pacific after being traded and has been traded already(PHI to ANA). Only time will tell if this theory still holds so I wouldn't squash it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's had a pretty brutal sophomore season. I blame Willie for keeping that pair together even though they weren't a fit. I suspect he'll have a much stronger second season once we have a more qualified coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes time for a defenseman to adjust to a new system and read off their d partners and stuff like that. im not saying guddy is a good dman just saying it'll take more than one season, and an injury riddled one at that, to come to a conclusion. to be honest this could be a blessing as his reported request at 5-5.5m could now be closer to 4ish which will be pretty decent if he becomes a sturdy top 4 minute munching guy with a physical presence. dang son @Junkyard Dog said the same thing lol that deserves a +1 too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is good at keeping players accountable. He looks to have a more hands on and tough love approach. WIllie is a good communicator no doubt but when you have a lot of young rookies coming into the team. Having a more hard nose accountable guy is key I think. Virt will be back next season vying for a spot. Having a guy like Green manning the big leagues will help him, boeser, juolevi, and demko i am pretty sure. It's crazy to think its conceivable we could have a stretch of games next season where we see all 4 of the team's top prospects suit up together in the nhl.

The only real animosity worth commenting on is Aquilini and his relationship with the Dallas Stars owner because they have some personal animosity. No I was merely stating that there might be some hard feelings between Vancouver and the Rangers because of losing in game 7 to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
