CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Not a secret that is what we need, but interesting that he chose to name that one over some other needs, such as maybe some defence prospects, or a scoring forward. Some interesting names on some common trade bait lists are Evander Kane, Patrick Maroon that fit that mould, but considering that the Canucks won't want to pay a premium and will likely want younger players, will be interesting who else they could be referring to.

RetroCanuck Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Tanev to Toronto for Liljegrin+Martin+2nd Let Virtanen and Gadj develop into the tough power forwards we need. Maybe draft Tkatchuk... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THERETOOL Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 We need to rebuild .. That means selling , not buying .. If they are actually gonna get a player , he better be on the young side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naslundfan921 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Domi matches the description and fits the relative age range. Cost might be a little too high though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benning said as much on HNIC. I think it's about replacing Dorsett and there's doubt about Archibald's ability. i don't think it's something to be alarmed about.

If they are actually gonna get a player , he better be on the young side We'll sell, don't worry. I don't think he's looking for a rental. This is a longer term acquisition.

Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s aggressively pursuing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cost might be a little too high though This is exactly what I thought when I heard JB say that earlier. Domi's name immediately came to mind. But we need 2 or 3 more players like that, not just 1. Clearly Virtanen hasn't turned out to be what JB wished he would. This goes to tell how long draft and development takes. Sometimes ppl on CDC think we draft a player and he's going to be a difference maker in a year. Really it takes 5 years for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did you have your head in the fridge looking for beer? That's why Virtanen was drafted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cost might be a little too high though Domi (as good as he is) doesn't really match the description. He's 5-10 and under 200 lbs. He plays bigger than he is but I don't that's the type of player Benning is referring to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
