[Rumour] Canucks Getting Calls on Luke Schenn
Elias Pettersson replied to Warhippy's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
They traded Motte even though we were still technically in a playoff race for only a 4th round pick. So, I don’t see how they would not trade Schenn either as a pending UFA to get an asset back. They blew a 2nd round pick to get rid of Dickinson and a 3rd round pick to get Dermott. So they need to recoup some draft capital. I think they are just waiting to get the best possible deal for Schenn. -
Most playoff rounds won by a GM in Canucks history: Pat Quinn - 6 Mike Gillis - 5 Jake Milford - 3 Jim Benning - 2 Brian Burke - 1 Dave Nonis - 1 The only thing that matters in hockey is playoff success. Quinn is our greatest GM ever. Followed by Gillis. I don’t buy the Burke and Nonis bs. They couldn’t even win 2 rounds in the playoffs with those teams. Maybe Burkie should have invested some time in actually finding a goalie who could stop a puck in the playoffs. If he had done that he would have won the cup.

(Rumour) 4 teams interested in J.T. Miller
Elias Pettersson replied to combover's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
So are those 4 teams still interested in Miller? When does this thread go away? When his NMC kicks in? -
There are 12 forwards on a team. But there are only 6 defencemen. So yes we will rebuild our defence before NYI can rebuild their forward group. We also have at least 2-3 nice prospects at D right now, so we already have some guys in the pipeline who can take the next step. NYI literally having nothing up front. It will take 5-8 years because they need like 10 more guys to build a team. Not all draft picks pan out. Plus, by acquiring Horvat they did what we’ve been doing for years, which is trying to be competitive instead of just tanking. NYI will be good enough to be a 16-19 team in the league so they won’t be drafting very high any time soon. Of course, they can fluke out and win the lottery, but other than some divine intervention I don’t see them getting any top tier Matt Barzal type players anytime soon.

They have zero prospects and their only forwards in 3 years will be Barzal and Horvat. Maybe Wahlstrom. Not sure how they will be able to be competitive with only 2 or 3 forwards. They will either have to overpay to get UFA’s or they will have to build through the draft. That won’t start until at least next year, so you are looking at 5-8 years from now before they can build up their prospect pool at forward.

I’d do OEL with $2 million retention and Schenn for Mike Reilly and Boston’s 2023 1st. -
[Rumour] Nikita Tryamkin eyeing NHL return

This one was my favourite. He destroys a guy who is 220 pounds and then rag dolls a guy who is 235 pounds trying to come after him. -

I believe it is based on playoff positioning, so if Boston is out in the 1st round all of the other teams who made it to the second round jump ahead of them and get a worse pick... -

Schenn is a perfect fit for Boston, they got one more shot at a cup. That 1st round pick is meaningless to them if they don't win the cup this year... -

Isn't the rumour Boston's 2023 1st plus Mile Reilly for Luke Schenn? If that is the case then we get another 1st... -
