Zigmund.Palffy Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 The future of the Vancouver Canucks is looking so bright right now. All the pieces are coming into place we actually have built a good prospect pool and our core will be one the best in the league if it all goes well. In few years time, will see a core group of young high talented players and be competitive for a long time. Im actually excited for this team and thanks to Benning and Linden for sticking with their plan all along. Craig Button from TSN is really praising the canucks future and giving benning and linden a lot of credit and really sees Canucks being competitive in 2-3 years time. Core players.. Bo horvat, Baer, Granlund, Brock Boeser , Jonothan Dahlen, Thatcher Demko , Adam Gaudette , Olli Juolevi , Nikita Tryamkin , Ben Hutton, Troy Stecher and Goldy are just a few handful of upcoming young talent thats going to excel this team! Things are going to get better Canuckleheads ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? They signed a 31 year old for 6 years at 6 million last year. They only really committed to a rebuild this trade deadline. No rebuilding team signs a declining soft forward at 6 million until they are 37 year old. They were thinking PLAYOFFS this season. Don't believe for a second that they planned to be sellers this trade deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that move in hindsight was a bit of an error. Benning has been moving out veterans for picks, prospects, or younger players since becoming GM. While many fans have espoused the idea of a scorched earth type of rebuild, I believe Benning understands that a transitional phase is required to pass the torch.

No respectable NHL franchise ever plans to tank a season, were not some $&!#ty American expansion team, were the Canucks, we tried to make it, we weren't good enough. loui will still be a good player on a good line 3 or 4 years from now, he will remain signed through the rebuild untill we are competitive again, in no way does this signing hold the Canucks back.

Who knows, maybe we'll even strike gold with either SJ winning the cup or us winning the draft lottery? Unlikely but you never know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithers joe Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 i can see what benning was thinking when he signed louie. i'm sure he was helping the sedins finish their careers with a player that played so well with them before. he did protect the team some what too. louie has a nmc for 2 years, a ntc for 2 years and a modified ntc for his final 2 years. i agree that louie will come back and get 20 goals a year for at least 2 more years.

VIC_CITY Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Question - does the team that wins 1st overall via the draft lottery also get the 1st pick of every other round, or does it default back to regular season standings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly .. miller will most likely re-sign a 1 year contract Hopefully by that time marky should be able to take the big step Demko should be ready in 2-3 years if not earlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horvats_Big_Head Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 And only white prospects at that, aside from Subban but he probably wont make it. The future is bright indeed. PS not being racist, just stating facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimberWolf Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Future is partly cloudy with a chance of showers We've taken some small steps to correct the errors of the last few seasons but it's a long road ahead Personally I would prefer elite management to create an elite team. Sorry to those that think benning and co are swell but even if they are not as bad as I think and somewhere around average I still want better. We've done bad to average to death in this town.

I think it reverts back to the regular season standings. Last season, we picked 5th overall but starting from the second round, we picked 3rd (33OA) although it was traded away as part of Gud-McCann trade.
