Current Untouchables?


apollo

Recommended Posts

The time has come... Lord Henrik and King Daniel have retired. 

 

One could argue they were untouchable ever since Brian "the mastermind" Burke brought them to Vancouver. 

 

But with them gone who remains? The obvious two are Brock and Bo. 

 

Are there any other players that you would consider untouchable or think they should be? 

 

I've got a few 

 

Edler - technically an untouchable with his NTC?  I'd love the eagle sign for 5 years and retires a Canuck. 

 

Goldobin - so much upside... Put him with Mackinnon this year and Goldy gets same amount of points as rantannen (85 if I recall right). He's also extremely well mannered.

Juolevi, Demko and EP.    

 

Your commitment to Goldy and your projection for him with MacKinnon made me grin.   You are always a truly optimistic supporter!

Bo Horvat

Brock Boeser

Elias Pettersson

Thatcher Demko

Alex Edler (NTC) I’d like him to re up in Van also. Very underrated.

 

 

Id also not move

Jake Virtanen - Really came along at the end of the season. I’m expecting a breakout year.

 

Nikolay Goldobin - Same as Jake. Tons of upside and played well at the end of the year.

 

Jonathan Dahlen - Could be a top line player with Elias.

 

Olli Juolevi - Don’t want to sell low with this guy. Still has a bunch of upside.

If I were JB-

Boeser, Horvat, Pettersson, Juolevi and Demko are untouchable.

 

Virtanen and Stech could be moved, but shouldn't be.

 

I wish we could get rid of Gagner and Eriksson. Eriksson really needs to step up, his production is completely unacceptable. Gagner is a burning bag of dog poop

Goldobin:  have you seen the man's shoes?  Definitely trade bait.

Obviously, Bo and Brock are untouchables.

 

Any of the younger players, who we are hoping to shape the next core should also remain untouchables. Those include, Stecher, Jake, Ben, Adam, & Goldobin.

 

For the sake of building a balanced roster you need players like Sutter, Erickson, Granlund, Edler & Tanev.

 

Add in some rough & tumble guys like Gaunce, Archibald.

 

 

Definitley get rid of Gags :ph34r:, and Dowd, Leipsic, Baertschi, Gud y?

Bo, Brock, Pettersson, and Demko are the untouchables for me. Others are available if the price is right, though I wouldn't say I'm looking to trade that much.

I would add Juolevi to that list, only because of our current D situation and the fact he is a recent top 5 pick.

For Canucks players who played this year: (excluding Eriksson's albatross)

 

Horvat (Canucks future captain)

Boeser (will win the Rocket Richard one day)

Gaudette (so much promise, and a Hobey Baker winner)

Demko (will be our #1, Hobey Baker finalist, Mike Richter winner)

 

For prospects:

 

Pettersson

Dahlen

(I think these two are going to be great together)

Juolevi (our best D prospect, without him, it's very bleak)
