I agree, but Gaudette isn’t gonna bring much in return imo, but ya we need defense . 3rd and 4th line needs to be bigger imo, guys who can play but are heavy and difficult to play against. We don’t need more little guys who disappear in March and beyond. -obviously there’s exeptions with small guys but 3rd and 4th lines should not be these “speedy” guys who disappear in late season.

Ya let’s give JV a big contract so he can sit it the press box after showing up higher than a kite game after game. Smart

ENOUGH About Neely, no one cares

I can’t imagine he’s qualified, The only way I’d qualify him and he’d never do it and not sure if u even can but a 2 way contract. Give him 3.5 if he can show up and produce or 750k in the minors. I’m sure that’s never gonna happen but only way it would work if he wants over 2m

I really think a big tough d man who doesn’t hurt the team ( England was always a favourite of mine) will help the team. Guddy was the type except he sucked lol, teams think twice about doing stupid things in front of the net with a guy who will punish them. I’m so sick of bottom 6 guys and bottom 2 D who are small and “speedy guys” but really don’t contribute much. It was embarrassing seeing the puke marchant punching Sedin with no consequence and time again and again. Canucks are a decently tough team through team toughness but I wanna see a bruiser who can play minutes and not hurt the team but stand up and not be scared to take a instigating penalty as long as timing is right.

I agree he’s old but if he can play for 1-2yrs at a mil cap hit then its pretty cheap imo for a guy who can really look out for his young teammates and from what I’ve read he’s a decent 3rd pair stay at home defender.

Assuming there will be some holes to fill

Ya that’s what I was thinking except maybe 1.5 or so upto 2 yrs as long as they figure his knee can hold out

he’s a fairly big tough defensive player that I think could help the Canucks

If that’s true it would sure be nice if st Luis retracts the offer if he tests the waters and comes up with less. Then drop to 7mx7yr and shove it. I know that’s a pipe dream though

I believe it’s not that anyone wants to trade Demko but is worried Canucks will lose him anyway in expansion draft so may as well get something for him. Unless marky walks then a Demko trade would be ludicrous.

Gotta agree, that’s never gonna happen. It’s possible hughs will be a Norris trophy winner, we just won’t know for probably at least few years and that’s not just hometown fans saying it, it’s hockey writers from all over the nhl. If Boeser plays close to what he did in his rookie year then he is easily worth more than 2 picks which is just a crap shoot anyway.

Just put 10mil from one of there many off shore accounts and funnel it to LE for his retirement. That was easy lol

I’m not saying let them walk for nothing but try to get some good assets in return.

Personally I really like Tanev but he is wayyy to injury prone imo. I’d be very careful giving him a big contract long term. I’d let him and marky go unless pretty big hometown discounts or shorter terms which probably wouldn’t happen.

And how do u sign JV to 2.5? He’d be signing as a Ufa in that case and some other team will take a chance on him for more I’d guess.

Agreed

If someone is disappointed then that’s fine, I was and I wouldn’t call them whiners. My point is people saying he was robbed are whiners.

And you have watched Makar how many times? Ya thought so lol. Anyone who thinks he was “robbed” is in a dream world, ya Quinn could’ve won and Makar would’ve been “robbed” according to avs fans.

Is he really built like a tank? I’m not saying that he isn’t but I’ve seen him close up at games and he just doesn’t look like the 230lb as claimed. Like when he’s next to other 230lb guys like reaves or others he looks much smaller. Again I could be totally off base here.

Unbelievable the whiners who think he was robbed lmfao. It was very close race and probably the current best player was makar. We’ll see in few years who the true best player is.

Who’s the second?

I agree it’s a bit scary trading him but it’s not a Neely situation, back then it was easy to make a mistake because of lack of secondary coaching and development but today it’s not like u are gonna just get a gem in the rough. It obviously happens here and there but I believe JV has had his chance and it’s time to part ways. If he can turn it around it will not be with Vancouver so good riddance you lazy sack of ......

I’m lost
