Saravelli on 650 talking about the Hawks' rebuild going so well.  Lots of high picks coming their way, and expecting more from trading Toews and Kane.  And here our owner refuses to do what is clearly needed - rebuild!

Make the playoffs, which is unlikely, to lose in the first round or tank to get a guaranteed generational or star player?

Tanking isn't really a game day decision.  That call comes from the GM's office.

@-Vintage Canuck-

A generational star who is from our city too.  How often does that happen?  This is definitely the year to tank.  We should have been planning to tank (and collect firsts) for this Bedard draft when the kid first popped up on the radar years ago. 

We got Ethan Bear and Jack Studnicka for pennies on the dollar.  What more are you looking for?

Where are all the teams with capspace? Oh right there's only about 7 of them.

Has anyone stopped to think the Canucks poor showing, why would any GM want our players unless they were getting them at a steal of a price?

@Ghostsof1915 The issues we currently have are the same issues from last year.  They've had over a year to fix this stuff.  At least BO is having a career year so they should be able to maximize his trade value.

Yup.  Tear it back to the foundation.  Will take several years to move out the deadweight though.  But we could be drafting top five for those years and accumulating lots of seconds and thirds.  

Bo doesn’t sign a fair deal (6 per x 8) then we trade his arse.  

We all love Bo, but we need to build a winner.  Bo at more than 6 per is too much

  bye buy Bo. 

I know!  I have Canucks and Canadiens on my mind! And drinking champagne while watching games too! 

Garland, but I think he might be too short to fit. 

LOL

The sun is shining! 

He was my grandma's favorite player.  For a guy that could hardly skate, he certainly had a good NHL career.

maybe its gas 

Doh hahahaha

Its too bad hockey isnt like RPGs.

”RHD beast joined your party”

Sounds like Dobson is on a pretty good deal right now.

Barzal, Dobson and a 1st for Hughes?

Then trade Miller for an extra 1st and prospects.

benning will draft the player they believe will be best for the franchise. whoever they pick, i wish him well. whoever they pick will rankle some fans. that's why they get paid the big bucks. 

I disagree we have many young players and our lineup cept the twins and Eriksson are young, so should be 2 years and we should be a playoff team

If not then something is wrong

Chill out.

LOL we can hope

If any 2 players retire in blue and green, it's these guys. I can't see them playing in another jersey, especially all of next season. It would be too weird. 

true I do not think so but if they want to win a cup and are serious about it I could see them going , but again they are humble and do not think they would want to play for anyone but us.I do want them to get a cup so I say maybe a 10% chance if that!

Or just trade the poor guy to a GM, Coach, and team that wants him.  All of this AHL drama is just going to lower his overall value if a trade involving him is done in the near future.

true but he needs to play and if plays well could be recalled and stay and play well

If the coach and GM doesn't want him to play then all of the wishful thinking in the world isn't going to help at this point.

As of right now, he looks like trade bait.  The longer that they jerk him around the NHL/AHL line-ups, the less he's going to be worth.

Well you've come to the right place then

Everyone has a right to an opinion. The problem is that these board showcase how whiny our fanbase is, in general.

that is true to many on here want a rush and to trade away our best pieces to get what a little ahead

Hope they stay focused and can draw the penalties and get the PP rollin.
