[PGT] Minnesota Wild at Vancouver Canucks | Oct. 26, 2021
Battlemonger replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Need more than Horvat and Demko if we are going to win more than lose. Funny, those two are not influenced much by Green, unlike the rest. -

Elias Pettersson | Quinn Hughes - Contract Discussion Thread
Battlemonger replied to Bertuzzipunch's topic in Canucks Talk
Nathan MacKinnon makes 6.3 million. Thats what you need to do if you want to play on a winning team, Petey. -

I would do that deal in a heartbeat. Brady and a first? Thats a no brainer. -

Pretty tough to play on a winning team when a player holds out for more money. Right, Pettersson? -

[Signing] Canucks re-sign Jason Dickinson
Battlemonger replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
The only defensive weakness Dickenson has is his faceoff ability in the defensive zone. I can see Horvat still taking a lot of these faceoffs. Nonetheless, Dickenson's other defensive abilities are off the charts. He is in the top 1% of all NHL defensive centers. So - a great signing, in my opinion. -

NHL proposed changes to draft lottery
Battlemonger replied to Mackcanuck's topic in General Hockey Discussion
The lottery should be completely scrapped. -
(Rumour) Virtanen on the trade block
Battlemonger replied to Wayne Glensky's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Anybody else notice that Virtanen always hit people like a train until early in his career with the canucks? I remember Virtanen completely running over McDavid a few years ago when they were both early in their respective NHL careers and then the very next game he was very timid and seemed to have lost his way. And he has been that way ever since. If he goes to a team like Boston, everyone could see a very different player. -
Seeing as we can't score a goal, lets try to score a Luke Hughes.

[Discussion] Realistic Value of Quinn Hughes
Battlemonger replied to Warhippy's topic in Proposals and Armchair GM'ing
Realistically Nashville: Forsberg Ekholm 1st 2nd Van: Hughes Virtanen 3rd -
The canucks have 3 calder finalists in the last 3 years, including Boeser. And chances are the hog will make it 4 straight years with a finalist.

(Rumour) Virtanen on the trade block
Battlemonger replied to Wayne Glensky's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Benning let too many players walk at free agency. He should have traded Virtanen and Stecher at the draft for a early second rounder or late first rounder and resigned Toffoli. We probably wouldn't have been able to trade for Schmidt, but then we would have about 4 million to sign a FA defenceman and we would have kept our 3rd round pick. Now, we need a player back for Virtanen, and that is going to be tough to do.
