  1. Detroit wouldn't do it. Seider alone would be worth a top 5 or top 6 pick.
  2. Oh man, I hope we draft Will Smith if we're not in the top 4. Imagine the possibilities on this forum... the memes! The gifs! The emoticons! The possibilities are endless!
  3. There we go. Thanks for checking out my post Coach Tocchet lol
  4. Petey on the point is what I saId during the all star skills. No different than what Bure did for us years ago. We need a cannon from the point, what better than a 103mph slap shot.
  5. If Tocchet flubs things with the Petey and Kuz duo, I'll be even more pissed with this team than I already am
  6. Not good. Certain coaches always have favorites and guys they don't like. Early on it looks like Kuz is the guy Tocchet has thrown into the doghouse.
  7. Yeah, seriously I'll take any team other than Chicago.
  8. I'm trying to piece together what the equivalent would look like in today's world... here's my shot at it... imagine this... To ANA: McDavid To EDM: McTavish Mintyukov Fowler Gibson Silfverberg Carrick 1st round pick (2023) 1st round pick (2024) Future Considerations Lol!
  9. It could if a team is willing to give up 8 to 9 assets for 1 player lol I'm sure EDM would do it if they got the equivalent of: - 1 top 4 defenceman (Duchesne) - 2 1st round draft picks - 2 elite tier prospects (Forsberg and Ricci) - 1 starting goaltender (Hextall) - 2 serviceable vets (Huffman and Simon) Could you imagine? lol
  10. Now you're moving the goal posts (like you always say I do). We were talking about trading Hughes to get 2 to 3 magic beans because it'd be better to have 2 to 3 magic beans than 1 that has already sprouted into an elite player. PS - Detroit is not that much further along than Vancouver. They have a ways to go yet.
  11. That's a pretty dumb approach. By that token, Connor McDavid should be traded for 4 assets of the prospects/picks variety because 4 is better than 1! Because what if McDavid suffers a career ending injury tonight and never plays another game in the NHL! Detroit should trade Mo Seider because who knows! He might suffer a career ending injury tonight and never play another game in the NHL again! Trade Seider for 3 first round draft picks! Definitely better to have 3 shots at producing a player of Seider or Hughes calibre! EDIT: Wait! I know! Trade Cale Makar for 3 1st round draft picks! He is injured and if it happens again, he'll never play another NHL game again! You'll get a chance of drafting a player like Cale Makar! In fact, you'll have 3 shots at it!
  12. You could also look at it this way though: Beauvillier is a pretty consistent 15 goal guy, 35-40pts per year? The one piece of track record he has that would intrigue a LOT of contenders is his playoff performance. He definitely seems to turn it up when the playoffs roll around. So now it is 2023-24, the Canucks are not surprisingly still a bottom 10 team in the league. TDL approaches and Beauvillier is a pending UFA with a typical 10 goals and 20 to 25ish points so far. Canucks decide to offer his services to the highest bidder while retaining 50% for the remainder of the season. You now have a $2M cap hit on a guy that appears to become a much better player in the playoffs (equivalent of a 25g 50pt player). What's that gonna be worth? I reckon we'll get at least 2nd round pick out of him next TDL.
  13. That's right... forgot about that. Bottomline is a player can be productive, but their contract could suck. I think it'd be wise to wait on Boeser, and retain on guys like Beauvillier and Myers next year.
  14. This trade would probably be a fair one in that I think both teams would not be very comfortable with it (which generally means close to equal value): To NJD: Demko To VAN: Nemec
  15. FTFY... There's no guarantees. Nail Yakupov, Alexandre Daigle, Patrik Stefan, Pavel Brendl, etc etc...
  16. Over 19,000 and counting... https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2023/02/09/turkey-syria-earthquake-death-toll-survivors/ Man, the last thing this part of the world needed was a natural disaster of this scale...
