Better to sign him and trade him near 1.5 years before the end of contract, he is a legit top 6 forward and imo better than Pearson. Yup and by then we can start sliding Hogz and Podz in/up to the top 6 and see if they can make Toffoli expendable/gain assets for him in trade. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really strong or big enough line. 4th line? Not really. im upset the picks traded I’m sure they where not needed to make this deal. Jimbo gets ripped outa draft picks again. Jimbo should not be doing the negotiating he a deal idiot. ..get Jimbo off the phone and get a badass agent negotiating for the Canucks..just have Jimbo sign off the final deal. dumb giving up any draft picks. 2020 Canuck can take Draft Friday off and sleep in Saturday 2nd round....what’s Canucks 1st pick now? in 2020 draft a player at 100 something....crazy and in a strong draft year. Maybe we draft a Madden caliber player in the 3rd round. We did accomplish that before. Making the pick you have count is just as important as where they are drafted. There's still time to add picks before the upcoming draft. The focus now is making the playoffs to give the young group some experience and hopefully a positive one to develop them further and be able to assess the team on future decisions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownky Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 3 minutes ago, Alflives said: I like the deal too, providing he’s only a rental. With our top guys getting paid big cap dollars, we need ELC players filling the support roles. Or if Toffoli takes a deal less than 5.4 to come back. If he was on a 4-5 year at 4-4.5 would it be terrible? Takes him to 31/32 so another crack at cash, guaranteed money and a solid team. All depends on the ask/get.

Angry Goose Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I like the fact that the Pacific/Western conference really is wide open, and with the Canucks still battling for a playoff spot- it' sa bold move to take advantage. I like how the RW's line up as well 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicklas Bo Hunter Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I hate to say it but atleast Boeser being on LITR gives us a chance to sign Tryamkin this season for the playoffs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet the players are happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sedinyoureyesontheprize Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Rumour is JB got a yes from Tryamkin so now he’s all in on making a run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BPA Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 1 minute ago, Alflives said: What’s Bess? I have BB slotted in with Petey and Miller. So whos the other top 6 RW to play with Bo and Pearson??? Toffoli fits the bill to a tee. He can score and is defensively aware (like LE). Virtanen looks good but he hasn't played with Bo for any long period of time. Green likes to slot him with Guadette and Roussel (which is a good third line).

Of course JB will say that about any of his coming free agents. Reading between the lines it’s clear Tofu is a rental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap room says otherwise. Plus, his age doesn’t fit. JB just said he decided to help the group until the end of the year. Rental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
