[[Proposal]: Gaudette + Virtanen + Demko + Stecher + Tryamkin rights for 2020 lottery 1st (at the 2020 draft)]

Can we please have a "Top 10 Worst Proposals Of The Year?"

 

I vote for this one.

[[Discussion] Hard to move Contracts]

Eriksson is the only guy we should be looking at moving at this point. We need the depth from Sutter based on the durability of our bottom-6 centres. Baertschi was on pace for almost 50 points last season until the 2 freak injuries, none of which were his fault (puck breaking his jaw & blindside hit from behind). He's our most skilled player other than Petey, no way we should just trade him for an unknown, especially when we're finally trying to be competitive.

[(Newer than the newest) 2019-2020 Time Capsule Prediction Thread]

Jake Virtanen scores 26 goals.

Quinn Hughes win the Calder.

Brock Boeser scores 44 goals.

Pettersson wins the Hart.

Pettersson scores 104 points

Demko wins 30 games.

[Putting the Miller trade in context: What is Horvat worth?]

You should consider the fact that Horvat played more defensive minutes and d-zone draws while still achieving top 6 production in points. Not to mention the intangibles. Also his progression trends up every season. I would value Horvat at 2 first round picks minimum with at least one of them being unprotected. And I still wouldn't make that trade unless one of them was the Jack Hughes pick.

If that's what the Canucks are really trying to do, it's called dividing the fan base. Good sports organizations unite their fan bases. Bad organizations do exactly the opposite. Catering to Millennials who aren't as knowledgeable about Canucks, hockey and sports history as their respective elder generations is plain wrong. I'm a Generation Xer who grew up with the Skate and I appreciate the heritage and history of the Canucks, which is Johnny Canuck and the classic Stick in Rink C.

I love the orca logo. I thought it was awesome how the Canucks logo is able to represent the history of Canada and the West coast at the same time while looking like the letter 'C'.

 

Also if we're talking history, the logo is based off of Aboriginal art. You know, from the people who were on this country first technically. Also their art is everywhere in Vancouver so it's hard not to identify the orca with this team and this city.

 

[MLK MeToo'd?]

No proof, just rumours. Why would they release this to the press without proof unless there's a hidden agenda? Anyone can make a recording accusing someone of something. Very fishy.

[[Discussion] Who would you trade the 10th OA for?]

Jack Hughes

[[Proposal] Ben Hutton for a forward]

Pearson now is worth a lot more than Gudbranson. But when we acquired him, he was a struggling forward playing 3rd to 4th line roles on a team that didn't fit his style of game. Just like Gudbranson was a struggling defenseman who couldn't catch our competition due to our new "run and gun" style of play.

 

I'd say you could probably acquire a player of the same calibre as what Pearson is now for Hutton. So at best probably a gritty almost 20-goal scorer in their mid to late 20s. On the low end you're probably looking at a bottom-6 forward of similar age with 3rd line scoring potential.

 

Let's just say we already have a lot of the forwards we would get for Hutton.

 

Hutton for RHD makes the most sense if we're trading him.
