  1. Wonder if you could swing Myers (25%retained) + Lockwood for Puljujarvi+Ceci.

     

    Saves Edmonton money. Gives us an equally good slightly younger defensemen and a middle six winger.

      Sohowabout as the 7th guy @Devron ;)

       

      Poolparty is a high end third line player that can slot into the top 6 when needed

  2. hear me out.. a blockbuster trade that includes all of NSH's BC talent

  3. Something I wanna see is Max Domi signed to play with Horvat and Podkolzin.

     

    Domi LW/Horvat LC/ Podkolzin RW

     

    That line would mess people up.

      @King HeffyTotally agreed, a player that compliments a line but doesn't necessarily drive it. He'd make any of our top 9 centres better

      Domi has value without a doubt. Id compare his contract to Garland as I view them as similiar players. Maybe a 3yr 5M style of deal. Need to leave money to resign Horvat.

       

      We'd need to move some money out though so I could see a Boeser trade soon. I also think a Miller trade isn't out of the question if one gets a very good offer. Kakko+Schneider level

  5. Preds play the Flames twice, Tampa, Avs, Wild, before finishing against Arizona. If Kings start to win games, then I’d have to imagine our other viable way to get in would be to hope Preds lose all those games, which is a huge possibility.

      Canucks need to win non stop. No other way

       

      And sadly not likely

  6. Which record do you feel could be broken in your lifetime?

     

    Teemu Selanne: 76 goal rookie season

     

    Paul Coffey:  48 goals in a season by a defenceman

     

    Wayne Gretzky:  50 goals in 39 games

     

    Wayne Gretzky: 92 goals in 80 games

     

    Bobby Orr: 139 point season for a defenceman

     

    Darryl Sittler:  10 points in one game?

      Canucks cup wins.

       

      Only record i care to see broken in my lifetime

  7. Could’ve done a liiiiiiittle more today but I’ll take a couple extra picks and cap space.

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      An extra pick. We should have done more in my mind. Cant keep swimming in mediocrity. Need to trade a good player to get multiple good younger players

      I think he has less say then many think.

       

      If its for a top 4D prospect I dont know how one could say no.

      exactly what I was thinking. Just dead really with quite minor trades

  12. Please trade Miller.  Please Trade Miller.  Please trade Miller.  There, said it three times.  Gonna happen now!  :frantic:

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      Id bet on a Miller move this offseason. With the team still trying to be in the hunt I doubt it happens now.

  13. Thoughts on Brandon Scanlin?

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      Great if it happens, doubt it does

  14. 5/7 of the next games leading up to the TDL are ones we should take. If that happens, does Rutherford stand pat?

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      in my opinion this team isn't getting anywhere in the playoffs if they do make it. We need a cup contender not a borderline playoff team. If that means making some trades then lets do that

      He's priced himself out of the next contract we could offer him. Trade him now or this offseason.

  16. apparently, LA, NJ and PITS interested in boeser; TOR, PHI AND STL interested in myers.

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      Robertoson or Niemela from Toronto for Myers would be fine with me. Some mix of Schenn, Hamonic, Burroughs, Poolman is ok headed into next year. 

       

      Boeser for Zacha and a 1st or 2nd would be fine with me.

       

      Miller for Schneider and Kakko.

       

      Robertson-Pettersson-Kakko

      Hogz-Horvat-Garland

      McDonough-Zacha-Podz

      Lockwood-Lammikko-Motte

       

      Hughes-Schenn

      Larsson-Hamonic

      Rathbone-Poolman

       

      DEMKO

  17. what could we get if we trade miller, boeser, motte and schenn?

    i predict all 4 will be traded.

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      Im betting on Boeser (for futures), Pearson (money retained), Schenn, Chiasson (bag of pucks) and management to push Halak to waive his NMC.

       

      Id trade Miller if one gets a middle six player, top 6 prospect and a first.

       

      Id keep Motte unless one gets a large overpayment.

  18. Watching the Devils play and they have some skilled top forwards, but they’re so small and soft.  

    I like that we have top forwards who have size and play hard.  Miller, Bo, Petey, Pods.  Even our two smaller guys (Hogs and angry Elf) play hard and aggressive.  

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      Lockwood and McDonough in the wings as well.

       

      Lockwood looked NHL ready for a lower line role and McDonough looks like a true big finisher we could put beside some of our smaller skilled guys.

  19. If Miller would take an 7 year extension of his current deal would you want that?

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      If he'd take it Id definitely consider it. However I think he's priced himself out of what we can afford considering all the big contracts we have coming of younger players. Hate to say it, but Im in the trade Miller mindset this deadline or offseason.

       

      Miller

      for 

      1st + prospect.

       

      Maybe Schneider + 1st at the deadline

  20. The NHL should do a draft for all players above the age of 27 every 5-10 years. Giving each team 1 Pick per round until every roster is full. Their current contracts and cap hits remain the same if chosen by a new team. If a player is not chosen, he remains with his club with the contract still in place.

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      So that bad management and good management don't matter as much?

       

      I think buyouts should be easier and cheaper.

  21. sutter, pearson, edler and benn's contracts are up at year's year's. do you see where any of them would be resigned?

    do we have replacements for them?

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      Trade Sutter, Pearson and Benn if there are suitors. Resign Edler for one year after the expansion draft. I think Virtanen gets traded in the next couple months. I think a Gaudette trade would hurt us unless its for a defensemen with similar potential. Myers or Schmidt grabbed by Seattle. 

       

      Hoglander-Pettersson-Boeser

      Miller-Horvat-Podkolzin

      Motte-Gaudette-Lind

      Roussel-Beagle-MacEwen

       

      Hughes-Myers/Schmidt

      Edler-Rafferty

      Juolevi-Tryamkin

       

      In my mind anyways this is how it could shake out. Wildcards being Rathbone, Lockwood and Michaelis.

  22. Of all the seasons to be crap, surely a 56 game season w/o fans is the best one to be crap in. 

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      well I guess there is that.

       

      I feel bad for this team. The heavy front loaded schedule without exhibition games and enough time to practice clearly hurts.

       

      Honestly I think Greens coaching is poor as well. Worked the team to hard early on and now they're clearly tired and can't recuperate.

  23.  Demoting hoglander to third and juolevi  to squad why he was our second best dman.  Roussel Eriksson Sutter in over jake mac and gaudette is a goddamn joke. Coach grasping at straws leafs are gonna bury us tonight perfect if it gets coaching staff fired  #wiilieplaychaputonpp is #greenputserikssonintop6

    1. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      Yep this coaching staff can be completely gone after this year. Benning will be at the cliff edge as well if this season continues like this.

  24. I always liked Juulsen's game. Wouldn't be surprised to see someone pick him up off waivers.

      I think he will. Honestly Id be happy if we grabbed him.

       

      23 year old 6'3 Right shot D that isn't in the negative column over 44 NHL games.

       

      Put Benn on the bus and keep Juulsen as your 6/7 D
