I was hoping we'd be able to poach him for Bear and a 2nd or something along those lines. 5 hours ago, S'all Good Man said: I'm sure they would do that deal.... I'd prefer it to be Baer an the 55th incase last year was just a blip. I think other teams might have a hard time matching that offer. I'm glad canucks management values Baer more than you do. He is 2 years younger, 2 inches taller and about 20lbs bigger than Marchessault. March only had 18 pts in 45 games the year before in TB, yes he broke out w/30g and 51 pts with FLA in a less physical east conf. Baer has been more consistent in the 2 season span scoring 28 pts the season before and then 35 pts in less games this year while playing injured, plus his +/- was -6 compared to March's -21. I would suspect that March's year might be the blip. Baer is only trending upward and I wouldn't be surprised if he notched 50 pts next year if he is injury free and 75+ games.

I do value Baer, its not a 'dump a player' suggestion, its talent for talent. I just think we need more talent at C than on the wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would consider it for Vantanen and or Strome. Interesting concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a shoot at every opportunity type player and this year his shots went in but many aren't convinced that he can keep up that level of production.

IBatch Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Vatanen would be a huge improvement on the PP over Edler, and he plays a Vlasic like two way game. He's small and somewhat injury prone, but there is always a marked improvement with him healthy. If Juolevi ends up as good as him we would have a very good top two. Dumba maybe too. He's tough, and scores goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
