  1. Miller re-singing for 6-8 years wouldn't be a bad thing or hold the team back with a big contract
  2. Ah my bad, However I'd still disagree with that besides Demko, we lost Pettey and Hughes at times last season, in fact we won every game Hughes was out under Boudreau, Pettersson was still healing his wrist injury till January and the Canucks still had a winning record with him dealing with that under Boudreau, This team is a lot deeper then most give Credit for I agree depth is a huge thing but I do believe at Forward we don't need to worry about it, as for the Defense we'd be SOL if we lost Hughes and OEL but i feel most teams would be.
  3. Yeah i don't know many teams that could lose their top 3 centers top 2 Dmen and their starter and still be competitive, if McDrai go down for Edmonton their season is dead in the water too
  4. Not the biggest fan of Holl feels like he'd been an older version of Poolman while us not having the benefit of Poolman being on LTIR, Sadin is an upgrade on Rathbone how ever rather trade Rathbone+ for a guy like severson instead
  5. Gotta feel bad for Virtanen he's had his career essentially ruined over this, even if you don't think he could kept up in the NHL still, he would have done fine in the KHL yet he still got dropped from his team due to this, sometimes it's best to believe innocent untill proven guilty and this case is a prime example of it
  6. Camera quality and lighting can sure make a difference, I think it will look better in person than it does in the photos, still not a fan of the design either though
  7. I believe the rumor is for the reverse retros to have the NHL shields on the jerseys that would match the era from when the original jersey would be from, This would be why it's orange here as this based off the Canucks WHL jersey from 1962
  8. At least it's so ugly it's unique this is just plan bad
  9. I know the buyer of the Jersey. Here are some better pictures of it that they sent to our group messages
  10. it's unfortunate they went with the worst logo the franchise has to offer. Much rather have seen the flying V return over JC
  11. The more i think about the singing the more i like it Mikheyev's speed will add huge boost into our line up and sure the pk which was a issue with us last year. I get it's a bit more money then we would have liked but if we are able to move out Dickinson i don't think the contract hurts that bad, we have probably the deepest to forward group in the pacific this year now with this singing
  12. I hope so, still don't get the pick, we are already a small team with the wings being probably our strength right now probably would have been smarter to trade down a few spots and get a C/D and the extra pick
  13. Another small Winger, should have traded down
  14. Very happy to see the twins and Lu get in on their first ballot, really shows you how special that 2011 team was
  15. Like the player, won't like the price tag, wouldn't give up anything more than this years 1st and Rathbone, our defense is still a weak spot and much rather spend our assets there instead of our biggest strength
  16. He was making about 919usd last year he will more than likely be making the max on an ECL this year which is 950k so he would be making more here
  17. Would hate to see this team take a huge step back I thought we took a pretty big step forward under boudreau, though there was a reason why both these guys got canned from sportsnet so I am hesitant to believe their comments
  18. This years compensation for this type of contract is actually only 1st a 2nd and a 3rd which I think is worth it and I'd also being willing to do 2 1st as well
  19. With many team's seasons over we have more of a picture where teams are heading. I believe Vancouver should be buyers with where our team is and some of the names on the market. Draft day trades To Vancouver: Brandon Carlo, Boston 2022 2nd round pick (54 Overall) To Boston: Vancouver 2022 1st Round pick (15 overall) Why Does Vancouver make this trade? I know our prospect pool is a little baron right now but by moving down to 39 spots allows us to finally have a young 2 way RHD that this team desperately needs, at 15 there really isn't anyone available that would take this team over the top and i believe adding Carlo is just want we need Why Does Boston make this trade? Boston is likely going to be rebuilding with Bergeron likely retiring and Pastrnak wanting out. Boston will have to go in a different direction and get younger, Adding a top 15 pick to a bare system with no youth outside of Lysell in sight, being able trade out from an organizational strength is a huge win for them and is a nice way to kick of the rebuild. To Vancouver: Dallas 2022 3rd round pick (83 overall) To Dallas: Tyler Myers Why Does Vancouver make this trade? Vancouver is able to move Myers now due to the Carlo trade. Which with moving Myers increases our cap space Why Does Dallas make this trade? Dallas will be in search for Offensive minded RHD after Klingberg walks in this offseason. Myers will have some value this offseason to a team like Dallas which will fetch a mid round pick to help a Need with Dallas To Vancouver: Calgary 2023 4th round pick To Calgary: Jason Dickinson Why Does Vancouver make this trade? Vancouver is able to clear some more cap space for a good player who hasn't fit here Why Does Calgary make this trade? Calgary need's help in their bottom 6 with their Defensive Forwards they are able to pick one up cheap who had great defensive numbers before coming to Vancouver who seems like the type of player that would shine under Darryl Sutter To Vancouver: Colorado 2022 1st round pick (31 Overall) To Arizona: Boston 2022 2nd round pick (54 overall), Dallas 2022 3rd round pick (83 Overall) Why Does Vancouver make this trade? Vancouver moves up to the late first round to help get some prospects into our system Why Does Arizona make this trade? by trading their latest pick in the 1st round the coyotes add another 2nd and 3rd to have more bullets in the chamber for the draft. Free agency UFA: Ilya Mikheyev 1m x 3yrs Andrei Kuzmenko 925,000 x 1yr RFA: Noah Dobson $8,402,974 x 5yrs Why the islanders don't match. Lou has been making some Horrible moves in trading Toews and firing Trotz and with the Islanders being so deep on the Right side they take the cap space and the assets (unprotected 1st in the most deep draft since 2003 from a team that missed the playoffs last year) to upgrade their scoring depth by signing either Forsberg or Gaudreau. Which is a big need for them, while still having a top 4 Right-side of Pollock and Mayfield Extensions Brock Boeser 6.5m x 6yrs J.T. Miller 8m x 5yrs Bo Horvat 6m x 8 Juho Lammikko 775,000 x 2yrs Matthew Highmore 750,000 x 2yrs Canucks Line up Next year Podkolzin - Pettersson - Boeser Kuzmenko - Miller - Garland Pearson - Horvat - Hoglander Highmore - Lammikko- Mikheyev Hughes - Carlo OEL - Dobson Dermott - Schenn Demko Martain Cap Space in 2022-23 $7,858 Cap space in 2023-24 $7,022,859 inclusion the Canucks have the cap space without trading a huge assests out and with how the market plays out can boster the Right hand side and turn this team into a real contender
  20. I honesty think it would fix our defensive woes, i think at that point our D core would be top 5 in the league, it's a move i really hope they try i could see Lou not matching, he hasn't been a great gm for a while and could be the type not to want to spend 15mill on his right side when his left side of defensive is a huge issue
  21. None of the core guys get traded this offseason and that Noah Dobson fresh off an offersheet scores the game winner
  22. So the leafs have to clean house no? Marner and Tavares have to go too, this team just isn't built for the playoffs
  23. I mean there is a reason 3 teams have traded him was a problem in Buffalo a problem in Winnipeg and now San Jose usually where there is smoke there is a fire
