    So last year the Canucks traded for Schmidt and everyone on here tried to say he was a first pairing dman.

     

    Now he's a number 4 dman we should trade?

     

    I always didn't like the Myers or Schmidt deal but everyone yoyos back and forth.

    For 3rd round pick it was a good shot to try to see the fit I feel his value is still high enough get something decent and use that money elsewhere like a partner for Hughes

    Some folks i'm not sure if they actually bother watching the games.   Myers is like Edler was a few years ago when we really sucked.   Just the best we have.  Don't get the picking on his cap one bit, even with covid it's ok for a UFA 6 x 5, hasn't been injured yet like Elder was either ... or Tanev for that matter.   I sound like a broken record but we need more guys like him not less.    Seems like most of the CDC was around for the 2010-2013 team.   Go back and look at the cap percentage we paid for that D.   Myers vs Ballard....the more we get like him, the more effective the entire D will become. 

    Excactly iv watched a lot Canucks game he was one of our best players in playoffs last year with demko ideal d with one trade and fa signing

    6.0 M AAV / Cap hit for a 3rd pairing guy like Myers is one of the reasons why Canucks can't sign both Pettersson and Hughes to long term contracts:

     

    Rick Dhaliwal: Barry continue: “Canucks have cap issues, I dont think we can do long term deals for Petey and Quinn. We have started the dance, we are engaged in talks.”

     

    6.0 M AAV /Cap Hit for Myers is a joke.

    I remember very well that I posted Myers stats from his time in Winnipeg in the Myers thread. His stats were mediocre. Everything over 4.5 m for a guy like Myers is an overpayment. 6.0M is a massive overpayment. Jim maneuvered Canucks in serious cap trouble and there is no easy way out. Canucks couldn't resign Toffoli and can't do long term deals for both Pettersson and Hughes.

     

     

    Lmao Myers is maybe overpaid by a million hardly reason why were in cap hell problem is you have Schmidt and Myers both number 4 d making 6 mil and Myers is physical harder play against and rhd they gotta trade Schmidt we have enough soft d in Hughes and juolevi/rathbone

  4. One has to be traded if the Canucks wanna be successful and rhd with height are hand find I think we could aquire a good 3rd line Center in swap with Schmidt and use the money to sign/aquire other d who will all be better fits with Hughes and Myers as Schmidt does not fit with either and we can’t pay one to be 3rd pairing guys Benning should be after IMO oleskiak Zadarov Larsson mayfield graves 

  5. Trades 

    Nate Schmidt to Rangers for Morgan Barron 2021 2nd round pick

    Kole Lind Jake virtanen 2022 2nd to St.Louis For Robert Thomas

    St.Louis still in win now mode believe they can squeeze something out virtanen and I believe Thomas oozes potential 

     

    Jack Rathbone 2021 2nd to Colorado for Ryan graves

    Doubt they would want to move Barron when he is expected to bring the grit and heaviness they are missing.  

     

    Media has been complaining all season that NYR are too soft and owner Dolan concurred.  They are looking to add grit - similarly to what Tampa did when they added guys like Coleman, Goodrow, Maroon.

     

    Don't think they would have interest in Schmidt either - would be surprising for Drury to ignore Dolan and acquire yet another skilled player while trading away a gritty one.  Dolan had that quote about how they have talent but that's not enough to win.  Would think that Drury is looking to add players that bring an edge and can play more of a heavy game for the post-season.

     

    Schmidt is what they need a solid left side d and would be great with Trouba cost isn’t cheap for top 4 d and I think Barron is probably 5th or 6th on there prospect depth seems like a perfect trade for both rangers are looking to take next step and are sorely lacking  top 4 with experience 

  7. My proposal 2021 1st Morgan Barron for Schmidt 2021 3rd

     

    Morgan Barron is 6’4 put up a point per game in ahl and is ready for show And could slide into our 3rd line for dirt cheap 

     
    3rd line of 

    Pearson Barron Podz 

     

    you then use that cap elsewhere as to

    me there is no way we can succeed with Schmidt and Myers in our top 4

    Colorado have too much talent can't protect everyone.

    Did you forget they have a protection problem? Lose Gravess to Seattle for noting??

    I know he is a top 4 D man he plays 20 mins a game?

    Appleton - 25 - 6'2 , speed, GP 56 -- PTS 25 on 3rd line.. Another player to go after

     

    Yes but why would they only take a 2nd they’ll get a lot better offers and there a lot they can do to make it work

    how does that help us ice 3 scoring lines? if he is just a larger sutter and they want him for future #4 center than fine. or if he can be a abrasive winger is okay too.

    He already is playing against men at 18 years old and put 0.5 ppg that season only forwards to do that in that league have become outstanding nhlers Benning probably has his eye on him seems like his kind of guy kids already 203 pounds at 18 6’6 hes gonna play around 220 he will be a guy you can slide up and down your lineup and be great 3rd line shut down guy
