I think everyone for the most part likes what he brings and would love to see him locked up, but it's not necessarily in our hands at this point. Yeah, it's all about what Guddy wants.

Spitfire_Spiky Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Basically this should be a pending UFA list....apart from Martinez and Galchenyuk the rest are UFAs that may not be resigned. That's the only reason they are even on the proverbial block to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I agree, that would be fun if that were to happen somehow. why would we trade for kane if he wants to come to can he can sign here in summer for free. And if u think galchenyuk has much value at tye moment he doesnt habs are playing him on 4th line i think gally is a decent 2nd liner but his value is lowered by claude and bergervin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jägermeister Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Gudbranson is gone IMO. He's going to want top 4 money, and we would be stupid to give it to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhippy Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 If we cannot retain Gudbranson for $4.5 or less long term or $5 million or less long term he has to be trade bait and teams will absolutely line up to get him. Florida would bend over backwards if they were/are in the playoff race as would Toronto, Edmonton,Chicago and about a dozen other teams. Gudbranson is exactly the kind of defenseman you want on your roster in the playoffs. I still see the following as being possible trade bait come the deadline Vanek Dorsett Sutter Tanev Gudbranson Burmistrov Wericioch If Benning is serious about cashing in on assets this is the year to do it knowing how many UFA's we have that are performing well. If we cannot retain Gudbranson for a decent price with decent term as much as it sucks it is only sound business sense to get max return for him...or else listen to another summer crying about it like we did Hamhuis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantum Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 With the way Sbisa's been playing, I think there's an actual chance Vegas decides to re-sign him instead of move him. John Shannon was quoted as saying that Benning won't make a decision on Gudbranson until February. So he'll be around till then. I suspect he'll be traded. Doubt the Canucks let him walk after the Hamhuis fiasco. Vanek's a pretty obvious piece to be moved at the deadline. His contract screams potential rental for a contender. Always thought this was the plan with his signing from day one. Have Vanek play till the deadline then move him for picks or a prospect. It's a real no brainer.

6string Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 We recently had a 3 way blockbuster deal and not a peep from the press before hand leaking any information that this was coming. Putting out a list of 10 easy names was the best they can do to follow up in the trade winds. Heck let's submit our 10 best now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Neilsons Towel Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I don’t want Gudbranson to be traded either as I believe he is exactly the type of defenceman we need, BUT if he is not going to re-sign we cannot lose him for nothing. My hope is that we can sign him to an extension Jan.1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beni Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Hopefully Gudbranson Re-signs and it doesn't come to that. Vanek will be a good playoff rental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebreh Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 The only trade i support involving Gudbranson, is if its with a bubble team's 1st round pick... increase our chances with a frigging lottery pick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHL rocks Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 No surprise. THey both belong on it. THis team will be far out of playoff race by TDL. Get what you can. If Gudbrandsson not signed by TDL we have to trade him. Really no choice. I think he'll do 4 yrs at 4 mill.. Does mgmt want to pay him that? Not sure. Because if he goes back to FLD at 3.5 mill he makes approx same because of lower taxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crabcakes Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I can't remember if it was Halford or Brough bragging about talking the author of the article into putting Guddy on his top 10 list. I wonder what the criteria for making the list are? Some guy's notional opinion or is it fact based. Does anybody really think that such a list has anything to do with reality? Or is going to influence anybody with the power to make an NHL trade? The question for Benning is whether he thinks Guddy is worth a salary that would be acceptable to Gudbranson. He would be due a raise but how much? Guddy is probably the worst skater and puck mover on the back end but his physical play is easily the best, not to mention intangibles. If an agreement can't be made he absolutely must be traded. Free agency would be disastrous for the team and Bennings career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
