missioncanucksfan Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Curious what it would take to get Nelson out of NY. Even with Tavares gone, he still seems the odd man out on depth chart. To me he seems like a healthier Sutter but just not as good on faceoffs. He is set for arbitration so Im not sure if he CAN be traded but worth a shot. Could be a decent 2nd line C, scores 20-25/ year and hasnt been injured. Horvat Nelson Sutter Beagle Good center depth until the TDL when Sutter AND possibly Nelson can be flipped for good picks/prospects, and bring Gaudette up Thoughts?

higgyfan Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 NYIs have 15 forwards signed and 5 of them are Cs. They seem primed to unload a couple before the season begins (they also appear to have several f prospects coming along. If the Canucks trade for a C, I hope that player can also play W. Does Brock play C? Perhaps a situation where Hutton or Pouliot + 4th? would get a trade done. They may be desperate enough to unload a forward to accept a questionable trade. That sure is a nasty contract for Boychuck...6m for 4 more years and he's 34yrs. NMC as well Another AZ signing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought of that, but I don't think JB gives up a 2nd at this point. NYI are looking desperate to unload a couple of forwards, so maybe it turns into an Ehrhoff situation.

wildcam Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Brock Nelson 6"3, turns 27 in October..He should score 19-25 goals - 45 point guy.. RFA Will have to sign a new contract should be in 3.5 - 4 million range.. Think NYI will want something decent in return.. I think NYI will want to keep him for depth, lots of cap room decent 2nd or 3rd line centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the depth they have.... Barzal Beauvillier Kovar Czickas Filipula Im wondering who Nelson jumps over without being shackled to the 4th line.

Beauvillier is developing well and will likely become the 2nd, but I think Nelson will settle in as the 3rdC. Interesting he was only signed for 1 yr. The Isles have some decent young Cs biting at his heals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over on LW you got Lee Ladd AB can play there too Martin when he's not in the pressbox Komarov Kunhackle Somebody is definately going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The remaining 2 will battle it out with the wingers. Lots of trade and waiver fodder coming up. The Isles also have Bellows and Hosang who both play C and W pushing to get a chance; hence the 'show me' 1yr contract for Nelson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
