Future of the franchise
flickyoursedin replied to Canuckleberry's topic in Proposals and Armchair GM'ing
Boeser seems unmovable at the moment. I’ve been saying since the signing and I like Mikheyev but he was a luxury we could not afford. This team needs centers and dmen to waste our last available cap space and to actually need to pay somebody to take Dickinson on top of it just to make it work seems like bad business. Should have signed Evan Rodrigues to a 1 year deal and we’d be better off. Also I agree Horvat should have been signed before the year started he’s likely going to be making 1-1.5 mill more per year after this season is done than what he probably would have signed for before the season started. -
[Waivers] Jakub Vrana

I’m waiting on Boeser’s agent to find something lol. I think money is tight everywhere and wingers just seem unmovable unless something sets them a part like star players or are cheap. Unless you plan on trading Kuzmenko nobody is giving us value for any of our wingers. -
[Proposal] Boeser to the Islanders for…
flickyoursedin replied to Tanti9's topic in Proposals and Armchair GM'ing
Would suck to lose Boeser for what seems like a low return but management and previous management has really messed up our team cap wise and this would help significantly moving 6.5 million for no cap coming back. -
Laff is going to be an RFA this year I believe. I wonder if we do move off from Horvat and sell some of our other guys if trying to steal Laff away for 2nd round compensation. NYR won’t have the cap space and if they did move stuff around to match it would kind of suck to use that much money on a contending team for somebody who doesn’t deserve it. I would think they’ll try to get him for the same they gave Kakko around 2 mill so if we came in and offered 4 mill for a year they might have to let him go for a 2nd round pick.

[Proposal] Boston - Vancouver
flickyoursedin replied to AriGold's topic in Proposals and Armchair GM'ing
Zacha is a career 46% on FO. He’s winning 36% of his FO this year. Don’t look at Zacha as a Center he’s as good at it as Jason Dickinson was for us. You’ll be very disappointed in him as a Center. He’d be fine if you looked at him as a 3rd line winger. But then he’s overpriced and not really anything we need. Much better off going Carlo and picks. -
[Proposal] Boston - Vancouver

We have Lysell his name is Hoglander. We don’t need more small wingers. Our winger depth is so deep. Think of everybody we have in the NHL right now then we have Pearson injured and coming back. Then in the minors and other leagues we have Podkolzin, Klimovich, Lockwood, McDonough (potentially signing) and recent 1rst round pick Lekkermaki. If a winger prospect is the main piece coming back in any trade it’s a terrible use of asset management. Should be targeting similar prospect value as Lysell but for guys that play either center or defence. -
Rangers management isn’t smart enough. They should have cashed a couple of these underperforming but highly touted names last year as well. Their draft pedigree still probably carried more weight than they’re actually worth and their team was close. They didn’t want to pay the price to get a top guy for the playoff push and in turn gave away the season on a year they may have had their best chance. Miller last year instead of Copp could have been the difference.

The only way to guarantee winning a lottery pick is by trading for Taylor Hall! So maybe get him in the off-season before the lottery and we’re good!

[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks
flickyoursedin replied to HOFsedins's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Would be nice to finally cash in big on a player. Really not the Canucks way though so I’ll believe it when I see it. Seems more like we’ll keep him and try to sneak in the playoffs and either pay him or lose him for nothing. -
They’ll want Pettersson, 1rst this year and 1rst next year at the least. It’s going to be a ridiculous price tag that nobody will pay it for an uncertainty. If we want Bedard start selling pieces now and pray to the hockey gods for a lottery win because that’s our only real chance. Unless years down the road he wants to come to his favourite team and home.

[Proposal] Boeser for Mangiapane + pick

I’d do this trade 1 for 1 -
[Proposal] Horvat to Colorado
flickyoursedin replied to JohnTavares's topic in Proposals and Armchair GM'ing
Newhook has been very bad at FO’s winning 31% this year. Looking like he’ll be a winger in the future which we have loads of! As for Girard he’s a good piece but a small LHD isn’t a need either. With Quinn Hughes already here and Rathbone potentially in the future I worry about getting too small! Really if Colorado wants Horvat I’d only listen if Byram is in the trade. He is another LHD but the potential is very exciting. If not then there’ll be other teams with prospects that play positions or pool is weak in. -
[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks
flickyoursedin replied to HOFsedins's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Bos and Lysell - we don’t need anymore small wingers. Buff has a ton of assets (a lot of them centers too) they might want to buy and would be on board with them. Det - not in a position to buy at the deadline and both those guys are probably untouchable with that team still not really making a push. Car - can’t see them moving Necas now being the top scorer on their team, younger and cheaper than Horvat. CBJ - Same as Detroit. Not in a position to use assets to get him but both might throw huge money at him in free agency. NYI - prospects are lacking. Rather look somewhere else. Pitts - I could see them being interested and Pickering is interesting if they’d move him in a package for a strict rental I’d like that. -
[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks
flickyoursedin replied to HOFsedins's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Time for them to share some of that with us! Krebs is falling behind but has a ton of skill so very undervalued at the moment. Pair him with one of Ostlund or Kulich and I like that better than any of these other names that people are mentioning. -
While I agree young middle 6 guys are worth having but we need young centers! This team is stacked with winger depth and winger prospects. If a Center can only win 36% of his draws me thinks that guy is a future winger. Chytil is a going to be a middle 6 winger which are a dime a dozen. We have like 9 of those guys. No I saw what you said about young dmen that aren’t solid off the start and I don’t really fault him for that. I fault him for being an offensive dman that doesn’t provide much offence. So if he’s not providing much offence, is tiny and has never been known or should translate a good defensive game then what is he contributing really? I think he will develop and learn an alright defensive game but his size will probably limit him from having a great defensive game. To me he’s an undersized bottom pairing dman.
-
Yes Chytil is producing nicely this year. They’re giving him good minutes. However his already bad FO % from last year got even worse sitting at a 36% on the year. The guy is still trending towards a middle 6 winger career. Then you have an offensive dman who is small and can’t play good enough defence but doesn’t even provide enough offence to make up for his lack of defensive play. The fact they were able to trade him for a 1rst is pretty hilarious. It was a bad package and I’m happy we didn’t take that.

[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks

That’s the risk is if Byram can stay healthy but that’s also the only reason he could potentially be available in such a trade. He’s got the potential to turn into a Drew Doughty type of defender! His last injury luckily wasn’t another concussion it was a broken bone from blocking a shot. More of a freak unlucky injury. -

Kotkaniemi in the top 6 could be the perfect tank commander we need for Connor Bedard. -
[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks
flickyoursedin replied to HOFsedins's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
If Newhook was winning faceoffs I’d be okay with him as the piece but he’s 30% and likely trending towards being a winger in the NHL. I’ve got a firm stance on needing to acquire a Center or Dman as I feel like we almost have too many wingers and not enough of those other positions. Byram is the only piece I like and I’d take the risk if they were willing to move him. -
[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks
flickyoursedin replied to HOFsedins's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Close to my JT Miller proposal of last year for Necas, Morrow and a 1rst. Kotkaniemi could be a decent gamble. -
[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks
flickyoursedin replied to HOFsedins's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Wahlstrom yes but they’re not giving him up and Holmstrom is a fine prospect but plays a position we just have so much depth in. We have so many wingers on this team it’s crazy. Then we have 2 better winger prospects not even on the team in Podkolzin and Lekkerimaki. There will be a ton of playoff teams asking about Horvat! Teams with much better assets that play the premium positions we lack in the system. We need at least a good center or RHD prospect coming back.
