86Viking Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 depending on how far Gaudettes team goes he might not have any time left to join the Canucks. Can join Utica though, which is what I am hoping for. I wouldn't mind Stewart to finish the year here. See if he can play a physical game? But think the Wild knew a playoff team would claim him thats why they waived him. Canucks need to make trades to reduce roster size not increase it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could damage JB's ability to make moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flickyoursedin Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Would be the perfect scenario trading a couple of our guys out and claiming guys like Oduya and Stewart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grab Burrows, then fire Jake back to Utica, too. Leave Gaudette out until camp. What other has-been trash is out there that we can help teams out with? Maybe we can pry Bele$ky out of the Rangers now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a pretty rare move for a drafted college player with any kind of status. Werenski (IIRC) did it but most others opt for the late season NHL deal to collect their signing bonuses and burn a year off their ELC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, it means nothing for next season. There's a very good chance he's in Utica next October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RRypien37 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I wanted Stewie for YEARS. Exactly what this team needs in its forward group. 6'2 and 242 pounds of toughness and grit. Him and Reaves are the 2 top dogs when it comes to fighting ability and playing a regular shift that are left in the NHL. Yes he is inconsistent, but I would pick him up in an instant for the sheer size and toughness he brings. He has big offensive upside and it showed earlier in his career. Fell off for a number of reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB5 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I liked the 2010 Stewart, not so sure about the 2018 Stewart. I'd rather leave the roster space open for the Canucks youth to play. Besides, Archie is up with the big team anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fell off for a number of reasons. He’s also reportedly great in the room and a very popular teammate. Reports are that Minny’s players are really sad to see him go. I’d actually be very open to adding him if we are moving a forward out at the deadline. Would even consider him for next year if the Sedins and Vanek are gone and we could use a veteran leader. Still skates fairly well for his size and can chip in around 10 goals a season. Plus he could provide loads of protection for our incoming younger, skilled players.
