Honestly if this is market JB HAS to be trying to move Tanev for a mid first (with retention) of course. It’s a deep draft from 3-20 - we could solidify the rebuild if he can pull it off and is willing, both those issues are TBD. And even if he is willing, there always has to be a dance partner but this trade certainly sets a positive precedent.

I have a feeling the Nucks are playing poker here. 1) at ten they want a forward or a d other than broberg. They want to see if anyone below wants him and will trade up. 2) my guess is they have their eye on Seider, Harley or York.

I think if Broberg goes earlier it would be to Edmonton. Anaheim has a pretty solid d corps and prospects do they aren’t in desperate need. Up front they are, Kesler, Perry aging our, Getzlaf only has a few more years of elite play left. I think they go with a forward, but Edm most definitely is a high probability to take any dman.

He was talking up Glass and Vilardi the year we took Petey - so there's that

Interesting quote from an NHL exec on Broberg at the end of the article. Says he stood out at the combine and will be gone by 10 https://theprovince.com/sports/hockey/nhl/vancouver-canucks/ben-kuzma-edler-uncertainty-makes-draft-play-for-broberg-possible-with-canucks-10th-pick

31 teams x 6 players is the top 6 = top 186 forwards in scoring would = top 6 scoring 37 points is within that group Not sure how I am wrong but carry on. Perhaps talk to someone who can help you or find a calculator? The stats speak for themselves. You're debating that top 6 stats based on NHL players numbers in 2018-2019 aren't top six stats and aren't facts? really? huh? http://www.nhl.com/stats/player?reportType=season&seasonFrom=20182019&seasonTo=20182019&gameType=2&filter=gamesPlayed,gte,1&sort=points LOL now I've heard it all Oh by the way, there are numerous dmen in there so 37 points is well within the top 6 range. If you'd like to argue basic mathematics, call up an elementary school teacher, don't waste my time any longer.

how many top 6 players are there in the league? 31 teams x 6 = 186 Virtanen 20 pts 2018 25 pts, 2019 -15 goals with little pp time, primarily 3rd and 4th line minutes and role Tied for 172 in goal scoring, and that includes some dmen This places his goal scoring at a top 6 level, even when playing a bottom 6 role 37 total points would put him in top 6 numbers in both categories. I guess I can see what a 22 yr old may be capable if given offensive ice, power play time going forward when looking at his trajectory and his current goal scoring pace in a bottom 6 role "LOL"
-
That's exactly what I was going to say. Also, the knock on him has been offensive decision making, which as a dman can be improved and he's not going to be counted on to be an offensive driver from the back end Also, I have to wonder, just as JB was talking up Glass and Vilardi, maybe he's got his eye on someone like Seider and doesn't want him taken early. Teams know the Nucks are doing well scouting, it could make them think twice.
-
he's a 24 yr old 2 way all star center who's good at ALL parts of the game from Offense to Defence to faceoffs, special teams and has size aka Ryan O'Reilly/Bergeron lite....and on a very friendly contract, that's his value High quality prospect, first and a 2nd I think you're underrating his value or a player of similar ilk in the league. Whether Colorado would ever pay that, I doubt it but that doesn't change the value of a player such as him around the league
-
Not sure if they can afford him ALF, they still have Laine, Connor to sign, and only 25 mil in cap space, and Morrisey next year. Laine is going to get 8 ish is my bet, Conner 6 ish so that leaves around 10 mil to fill out their roster and they have 8-9 other spots to fill. Myers is likely still gone. https://www.capfriendly.com/teams/jets

Colorado needs a true 2c, its well known. I would never want to see him traded but the 'idea' of them wanting him is plausible given their hole there (most teams would want Bo, but you get my point). Only thing that would make me 'consider' it as JB, is, Makar #4 and their 2nd. Then you have to think long and hard. Not sure Colorado would make that move though
