Rush17 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 There was a report by Matt Sekeres stating Jim has been one of the more active GMs working the trade lines. There seems to be a lot of smoke around our 7th pick. I believe if we were to move the pick it would be to get a later first and maybe a young defenseman or prospect. Boston lacks a first but they have shown interest in #7. There good chance a player they like could be had later in the first. if the player they value matches or outweighs what they see at 7 it would be nice to get an additional asset or two in the process. Take Sekeres word with a grain of salt though he is hardly an insider or source for anything. Would you guys like to slide down if we could get a top defensive propsect along the way? The only way I see us moving the 7th pick is either at the draft once picks 1-6 have been completed or if a team vastly over pays before hand. Your thought?

goalie13 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 The Bruins are probably one of thirty teams interested in the Canucks' 7th OA pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I don't think there's anyone on Boston that I'd want for that pick. Its one thing to snag a budding defense who has loads of potential, I don't think Boston has anyone that would really help us from a rebuilding side. The only way I would move that pick is if it gives us someone really comparable to what we can get out of this draft, but maybe a year or two older. If not, grab Dobson/Hughes/? and move on.

HerrDrFunk Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I can't see Boston giving up any player that would make trading the 7th overall worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only Chiarelli was still running things in Boston...we could probably get McAvoy out of the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but Chia Pet is now running the Oilers. If Brady Tkachuk falls to #7, I can see the Oilers making a big push to trade picks with us, so they can get BT. BT would be an ideal winger for McDavid.

peaches5 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I definitely think JB wants more first round picks next year when the Canucks host the draft but I don't think the Bruins really have anything we want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Where'd Luongo? Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I'll take Krejci and Debrusk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bissurnette Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Really hope JB keeps the pick. We can pick up a very valuable piece on the backend with this pick. Let's not get too impatient, stay the course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanGnome Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I'm fine with trading the 7OA pick if it means improving the team. We don't need prospects that are going to be an impact in 2-3 years, we need players that improve the skill of the team and can play now. The team has enough immediate future depth, right now the need is to improve and get out of the basement. The rebuild is done, now we just have to be patient with the new core, tweak here and there and we'll be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even McEvoy? the 7th plus Tanev to get him would be an outstanding move. Bruins would be mental to trade him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman64 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 " Agreed. Let's trade for Marchand, trade for Lucic, trade for Tom Wilson. Lol. Man we would be even more hated. Lol." I'd even hate the canucks if they pulled that one.... Honestly, why would we? I mean at 7th is someone that can help the team either after a year at utica or right away without a huge cap hit that will hurt us, so we can spread the cap out evenly and trade for more help. Boeser's contract will be enough in that direction soon without adding to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree, with the top 10 are pretty much players who will be in helping their team either right away or a yr away tops... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
