SedinMadness Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 just so you all know... we as fans dream to much, especially with the canucks. i would look at returns of grabner, and vanek. we got to get what we can get. we don't want the oilers getting either.

VegasCanuck Posted May 24, 2018 Author Share Posted May 24, 2018 I'd probably give Hansen a shot at 1 million per. Worst case, he'd be good mentor for Utica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush17 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 1/3 of the list works for me. If we move Tanev or Gudbranson out.. green would be a great add. He might want a cup more then $$ tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hansen may be available for less but I think that would be fair compensation. Hansen could still be a good bottom six winger with Sutter. I would add Riley Nash to the mix as well. My guess is that Boston will be keen on re-signing that Nash (rather than a Nash of the the Rick variety) but he seems like he would be a good veteran pivot for the Canucks who could play up and down the lineup as needed.

Carlson would be awesome but Sbisa is more realistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Reaves and Beagle. We need more toughness; Gudbranson can't and shouldn't be our only guy who can drop the mitts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billabong Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I’m interested in almost anybody just depends on dollar amount and term. Term is most important I’d give jvr 4 years at 6m per easy but would I do 7x7 no way in hell tavares is the exception to the rule. I’d throw mcdavid money at him. The top of my wish list includes De Haan, sustr, reaves and komarov I have luke warm interest in bozak, but I wouldn’t go bigger than 4x4 for him and even that sounds like a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris12345 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Canucks need to sign at least 1 dman but dump 1-2 of the current ones. I'm gonna barf but I really like JVR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I picked Carlson, Bozak, Riley Nash, Reaves & Roussel. Carlson would be a great boost to our defense but its very unlikely we get him. We could use a center like Bozak/Nash and some grit in Reaves/Roussel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgarM Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Aside from the obvious like Carlson, I think we really need to support the young guys with some bigger faster grittier forwards(Reaves,Neal,Maroon). Not interested in any smaller non gritty forwards such as a Grabner. We have an abundance of these type of players already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shekky Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Bieksa is a UFA as well might want to consider bringing him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie Sinatra Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Ryan Reaves and Kevin Bieksa. Get back to some old fashioned in your face hockey like the good old days. This would solve the grit and toughness issue hands down. Throw in young Gadjovich and nobody is going to mess with this team anymore. We need toughness to protect our young bright up and coming stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time Lord Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 9 hours ago, Crabcakes said: I don't see anybody high end getting signed. Only players you could get for 1 or 2 years. Also, I think that Benning leaves the defense alone. I'm looking at 2/3 centres (or 3 at least) who would be an upgrade on Gagner. I'm sure there's plenty of debate if any of the following would fit the bill: Riley Nash Tyler Bozak Valtteri Filppula Derek Ryan Thomas Plekanec I like those centers except Bozak, not sure if he's what we need even though he is the best player on the list. @VegasCanuck can you add Filppula and Plekanec? For wingers, Grabner and Maroon. I like how those two fit in with the Devils, both for different reasons, and our team might look similar to theirs soon. Maroon could be a good linemate for Pettersson. Grabner is a great guy to have in your bottom 6. On defense, I like De Haan, Cole, Hickey, and Moore. Whichever one we sign would instantly be our 3rd best dman haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakrami Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I say go hard at John Carlson. If 7x8 is what it takes, do it. And then give it a rest, we already have too many players. Let the young ones develop. Signing more contracts now will just tie you down 2-3 years later. Eriksson was a huge mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
