  1. The McWard signing is awesome Cole 21 - 6'1 - 192 lbs RD had a good season as 21 year old.. If. McWard played another 2 seasons every NHL team would be after hime and he might of been the top player available in 2 years.. So awesome Canucks can develop him in Abby for next 1.5 years and he might be NHL ready... I could see McWard in 2yrs getting much stronger 6'1 - 205 lbs ..
  2. Yeah I heard guys on Sportsnet 650 last night talk about the size of Canucks.. Think the average weight was 190 lbs not a heavy big team and not much toughness or grit. Rick Tocchet will be pushing Allvin to trade for some toughness. and size. Very hard to find players that can play regular and add that toughness Canucks need especially on defence... A player like Graves would be so special 28--6'5--225-- Stay at home D man, adds grit toughness and PK can play 20 mins...
  3. I like this signing adding size Cole McWard -21 - 6'1 - 195lbs RD yes-- --We have so many D men between 5'10 - --6'0 Need to Add a guy like Graves 27 - 6'5 -225 -- very tough stay at home D man...
  4. Your such a comedian keep it up...Site needs more sarcasm and comedians like you..
  5. I remember these posters on this site when Canucks traded for Miller ? You can't get a top 30 forward Miller W/C for 2nd and 3rd rounders? cost 1st and 2nd.. Has Miller not be good 99 points last season and this season GP 74 - PTS 75 ? Same with Hronek 25 Top ranked 29th in points and Ranked 14th RD and not pay with 1st rounder and 2nd rounder. ..Thats what you pay? First rounders don't always turn out? Canucks needed another top D man Hronek solid D man # 1 D man on some teams. Also if you draft a 1st rounder 18 years old could be 3- 5 years before he is NHL ready.. Pettersson will be 25 in November and Hughes 24 October.. Hronek RD - 25 solid NHL D man PK--PP and log 22--25 mins-- Hronek RD man there so hard to find makes trade that much better,,
  6. So there's 32 top RHD and he sits 14th.... Thanks.. So Hronek 25 - Ranked 29th in points and 14th best RD man that sounds awesome to me.. Thanks Allvin, very good trade..
  7. So what is your point you base your top 30 NHL D men buy points ? Can all these guys play PK- PP play very solid defensive zone . Example Barrie not great defensive zone... Most of these D men are playing with very good players that helps with there points? Did you look at Stats for Detroit players? Larkin and Perron so Hronek 3rd in points when trade was made? Cant base who are best D men by points ? Scott Stevens was a top D men? I hope you think so..The all around game? And so be it if Hronek is 29th best NHL player ?? Lets go with that? That means he would be a top # 1 D MAN ON SOME NHL TEAMS????? How hard is it to find RD man 25 yrs old - Ranked 29th by points ?? Check out that stat for me please?? Sorry I said top 20 D man for your case .. So 29th D man means he is still very good?????
  8. Hronek is a top 20 NHL D man. .. Not his age..look again.. He is 25 years old turning 26 in November..
  9. Hronek is a top 20 NHL D man and bonus is a RD man, so hard to find and 25 years old another bonus.. Win win..
  10. MARCH 31, 2023 AT 7:56 PM CDT | BY BRIAN LA ROSE 2 COMMENTS Canucks defenseman Filip Hronek returned to the lineup last week from a shoulder injury but that return was short-lived. Speaking with reporters today at his pregame press conference (video link), head coach Rick Tocchet indicated that they’ve decided to shut the blueliner down for the rest of the season:
  11. So much negativity and sarcasm about Hronek.. Hronek played 4 games and played over 20 mins in the games.. Hronek looked good and why play him if shoulder is a little sore... Not making playoffs, great move not playing him any longer.. Hronek will be great for Vancouver...
  12. At no point was I saying smaller players can't play in the NHL ? You need size and grit if a team is making the playoffs and we have very few gritty player 200 lbs?? Burroughs 6'0 -195 very gritty and tough -- Juulson 6'2 205 can play that way at times.... both players are really # 6--8 on depth chart. Hughes - Hronek - Bear -- OEL - Wolanin-- Johansson --All of these player don't play with much grit except maybe Hronek..
  13. 1. Hughes - ______ UFA or trade big gritty stay at home D man under 27. --- IF not Bear will start there --- Juulsen 6'2 2.OEL LD --- Hronek RD 3. Wolanin LD --Johansson 23 - 6'2 RD -- 7.Juulsen 25. RD - 8.Burroughs LD 9. Brisebois LD - 10 -Rathbone 23 -- 11. Hirose 23
  14. OEL will not be moved full no trade clause? Do you remember 3 yrs ago when Coyotes tried to move OEL and he would accept trade to Vancouver and Boston? Vancouver had Coyotes in the corner and then lost the deal? Vancouver give 3 players making 3 million each expiring at end of that season? Vancouver take OEL and 6 yrs at 7.2 million - --Garland gets added Vancouver give 1st rounder 9th O/A -- 2nd rounder. ... Can't see Vancouver buy OEL out until last 2 yrs of his deal.. Big hit against cap in year 2 and 3 of buyout..
  15. Well Carrol small already 26 years old 5'11 bottom of Canuck prospect pool...We need some bigger D men.. 1. Johansson RD -23 - 6'1 2. E. Pettersson 20 -6'3.-- 3.Jurmo 20--6'3 -210 LBS -- Kudryavstev 19 - LD AHL prospects - Wolanin 27 LD 6'1 Juulsen 25 -6'2 RD --Brisebois. 25 LD --Woo 22 RD --Rathbone 23. LD. -- Hirose 23 LD Schneemann 21 -6'2 - Nychuk 21. (( Carrol 26 -5'11 -LD ????? Bottom of prospect 26 turning pro...
  16. Myers will be easy to move after his 5 million dollar bonus is paid out July 1st....Myers will be gone..
  17. Dermott will be gone.. Poolman LTIR. Myers traded after July 1st- 5 million signing bonus will be paid..Team under cap will be interested as only 1 million owing with 6 million cap hit..Will help lower team reach this. Teams like Coyotes, Ducks.. Bear 1 yr X 2.3 million -- Show me more deal 1. Hughes -- Bear RD 2. OEL -- Hronek. RD 3. Wolanin -- Johansson RD --- 7. Burroughs LD 8. Juulsen RD -- Brisebois LD -- Vancouver will try and sigh another stay at home D man for Hughes ?
  18. I agree with you 100 %, I really thought Foote would of been a top 4 D man by 24. He went to Nashville and basically playing 15 mins a game. Juulsen 25 - 6'2--200lbs has been playing very well in 12 games beside Hughes. Some people are saying Foote has more value then Garland?? Sorry Garland is a top 6 forward on lots of teams and Foote is a # 6 or # 7 D man right now. I really think Filip Johansson 23--6'1 -190 lbs -RD might make Canucks out of training camp? Would really like to see Vancouver sign a free agent D man out of college..Maybe Livingstone 23 - 6'3 - RD one of the best D men in college...
  19. Not sure if Foote 24 - 6'4 - 215 lbs is a top pairing D man? Might get Livingstone 6'3 RD when NCAA tourney is over? Foote is averaging 15.3 minutes on Nashville.. Hope Foote becomes a top 4 D man one day..I would trade for Foote he does add size and toughness and a RD men are hard to find.. Jost 25 mins - Barrie 21 mins -- McDonagh - 21 mins. -- Carrier 18 mins - Fabbro 16.5 -- Lauzon 16.5 --Foote 15.3
  20. Yes maybe trade can be made just not NHL or AHL players ?? Haven't played pro games? Maybe ?
  21. I have always thought Horvat is a very good player say GP 75 - G 26-30 --PTS 60-65 PTS-- WORTH 6.9--7.4 million X 8 yrs Horvát was on a pace for 60 G-- 96 PTS at one point.... He is not a 70 point guy. His pace is more normal now. 2022-23 Van. - GP 49 - G 31 - PTS 54 -- One time thing. 2022-23 NYI - Gp 19- G 5 - PTS 9 ---36 point pace now playing under pace he should be at -- ( 60--65 point guy )
  22. Never heard such a think? If anything 15 months ago new management said there going to hire a staff to develop there prospects.They have hired so many ex players and new scouts and Abby is looking much better..
  23. I agree never heard anything about complaining? If anything 15 months ago the said they will build a staff to develop there prospect and they have hired so many ex players and scouts to develop .. Look at at the prospect that have stepped into Canucks lineup from Abby and have done very good? To mention a few, Wolanin LD , Juulsen RD , Brisebois LD, Di Giuseppe W, Aman C, Silovs G
