I think long term, we might want to aim a bit higher, but it's one step at a time.. this move could help us reach the playoffs this year, which is important experience 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We desperately need more grit in our bottom 6 and Gaudette is playing 3rd C. He can play wing. Did it in the World Junior, has done it in College. That versatility helps. Maybe he would've made Gaudette expendable when he needed his next contract. Oh well. Its not a bad price, but (again) you question the timing & if this team is ready for it. I'd be expecting a team like Boston to make this move. If Toffoli re-signs then I'm good with it. There was already doubt if we'd be able to keep Markstrom + Tanev, so how we can keep them all or 2 of 3 will be the next challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Screw Posted February 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2020 9 minutes ago, Lazurus said: Certainly not the quality of the player but this puts the team over the cap. I thought this is supposed to be a rebuilding team, now it looks like years of being in the middle of the road. Best and deepest draft in years if not decades and Benning is trading away possible future stars? Well this should not be unexpected he has never made any moves to promote a rebuild if anything the exact opposite getting rid of picks and players for nothing. This gives Markstrom's camp huge leverage now because he has gone all in, sacrificed two or three years of rebuilding. Don't get me wrong the bottom of the team looks like it could be effective but it is literally relying on two players, Markstrom and Miller, even if Edler or Tanev get hurt this team is in trouble. They have chance for the playoffs but they could still miss as the pressure ramps up on the players to make it. Almost like a GM trying to save his job. Two future players for an older banged up bottom six forward. Head scratcher 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darius Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 A couple angles im thinking of 1. They getting a top 6 winger coz brock will be out longer than expected? 2. If Gaud and Petey are two of the top 3 centres going forward they need more beef down the middle. Don’t think it was in the cards for 155lb madden at Center. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekker Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Madden is an interesting prospect but very, very light. He's a ways off from playing in the NHL. I wonder if JB was hinging his bets a bit on him. If I were an undersized forward, very undersized, would I stay in school as long as possible, finish my degree? If Madden stays till the end of his schooling maybe he bolts from this organization? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the most skilled guy but a hard worker and has a pretty decent shot and instincts around the net. He's produced like a top 6 forward since he's been here. Can't deny that.

Smashian Kassian Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 It is nice getting another 1 shot scorer. Toffoli seems to be heating up, definitely a player that fits with what we are doing. This puts even more importance on unloading money at some point. If we can keep Toffoli that could solidify us as a consistent playoff team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucks Curse Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I'm wonder if there was a rumour that madden was not going to sign with us...??? otherwise I feel JB could have gotten them to take mcdonut or OJ...maybe he wants to keep as much d depth as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuxfanabroad Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I'll guess Brock might be dealt to Minny, in the off-season. Take back picks, to open cap. Toffoli, Jake..Lind & Pod as well. RW is getting deep. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
