Grabner-Sutter-Gaudette

Granlund-Richardson-Archibald/Leipsic

 

That line up would maybe win 15 games, because other teams felt bad for us. 

[Kosmo Kramer]

I loved Hansen but I don't think there is any room at forward for him anymore.

We have lots of young guys that play his style.

 

A D-man would be a good pickup especially with how badly injuries plague ours.

 

I'm not savvy with other players around the league these days since I work too darn much.

 

Defence is the need now though for sure.

No signings unless it's a top 6 winger/center. We have enough bottom 6ers as is and we just lost 2 50 point players. No defenseman unless they can score. We have enough 2 way, 20 point hopefuls on the blue line. WE NEED MORE TOUCHDOWNS. 

[HC20.0]

Grabner would be solid. As would Green on the back end.

I think I'd consider pursuing a goaltender as well on a 1 year deal. I'd honestly buy out Nilsson at this point.

[J.I.A.H.N]

I am not sure who we should sign, but let's keep our cap space and see who we can sign the year after next year.....

 

So a couple 1 year deals...over pay if need be....2 way deals......guarantee the money up or down

 

Vanek and Green are fine with me........Green probably won't take the deal........but pay big and move him at the TDL to a contender........50% cap retained

 

Again save the money for our 2nd year ( 2019-2020)

[Canucks Curse]

Ideal type of trade:

 

to CBJ

gaudette 

tanev

2018 1st

 

to VAN

werenski

dubois

 

i think value is fair but CBJ sees this as a step back 

[Canucks Curse]

Grabner or Vanek

Reaves

 

beartschi Horvate Boesser

grabner Peterson Ericksson

Goldobin Sutter Virtanen 

granny Gaudette Reaves

No room for gagner, I never liked him, adds little other experience and we are paying a lot for that 

would try to trade for a 3rd or 4th

as you can see even with just adding Peterson there is not much room- where do gaunce and  Leipsic fit in when we aren’t decimated by injuries? Will Goldobin win a roster spot?

 

Would love to have 2 good vets flank Peterson for a year - so grabner or vanek would be good. And we need toughness for sure, so Reaves would be great but now that’s 2 fewer roster spots for the young guys.

I think they only accept that deal if we win a lottery pick and maybe not even unless it's 1st overall.

I agree about Hansen. I was hoping we would sign him next season, but then we got Motte.

Derek Ryan is also another guy I'd like, he'd be cheap centre depth that would be productive. Still think he'll stay in Carolina but Ryan is from Spokane, Washington -- practically a local boy lol

Sign him and expose him in the expansion, maybe they might bite?

[Provost]

You try hard on Tavares, Kane, Neal, and Carlson and see who you can get.

You rarely get hurt getting top players, you get hurt by overpaying middling players.  Carlson is the only real risk of that bunch and even if he can't replicate his current success he is still a top 4 D which we badly need.

[24K PureCool]

I say Green and one of Vanek or Jokinen (probably Vanek, maybe both?).

He is a Canuck.  Would rather him here than Jokinen.

Why? Jokinen scored almost as many points and double the goals that Hansen scored all season in just 14 games with the Canucks.

Unless it's a top-6 winger, a C is more what we need.

[on the cycle]

Vanek...? that's about it. 2019 is a stronger ufa pool.

[CrazyAL]

Weaponize the cap, they have tons of space, who knows they might be able to get some serious assets from a team that wants to off load salary to sign Tavares for example. I would be cautious to go after guys like Kane at 6x7million type deals, not sure that is the right route at this point.

[smokes]

Perron would be a nice fit, someone Virtanen can watch.

[alfstonker]

Am I the only one who wants Jussi and Vanek back?

[Battlemonger]

Good UFAs available, but this might not be our year for a big signing. A vet or two to help the young guns for the next couple years, and then a big signing or two in a few years to put us over the top.
