Every year teams get very good players for peanuts because they have the cap space to take them on without giving up much. That’s how the Canucks should be building. To get QUALITY players being dumped for garbage.
The bonus is not only do you get comparable or better players than the garbage typically signed or traded for by the Canucks, you also get to fill the prospect pool by keeping your picks and adding more. Then you have more assets to trade to continue to fill out the team.
