  1. I Agree Boeser 24 is younger Miller 28... Tough hockey call but if you get a 1st rounder, #4 D man under 26 and say top young prospect we are getting younger and giving us cap room... Only a few untouchables, Demko 26, Hughes 21, Horvat 26, Petey 22, Podkolzin 20, Hoglander 21, (one of Boeser 24 or Miller 28) Motte 25 UFA - Trade at deadline this year --Lockwood ready to fill the spot at 900,000 Pearson 28 - Might be hard to move, think there is a no move in contract?
  2. I agree 100% we will have to make a very big decision on some forwards.. Miller will bring back the big RD and draft pick.. Motte will be traded at trade deadline UFA this summer Lockwood is ready to replace Motte.. Cap will only go up 1 million each of the next 3 yrs….So don’t be disappointed hockey trade has to be made in next 6–18 months..
  3. At some point you have to make a hockey trade? Everyone knows we need a big RD man ? we are up against cap and always will. We can’t keep all the top 7 players with salary cap not going up much in next 2–3 yrs. .This summer 2022 - Boeser 7.5 million summer 2023 — Miller will be 30 wanting 7.5– 8 million X 5– 7yrs.. Lots to have invested.. Big decision in 2 yrs.. Horvat will be 28 — 6.7– 7.3 million X 5 -7yrs… Solid #2 centre Hogland will be 23— 2.7–3.5 X 3 yrs
  4. Like Chatfied he was never good enough for Canucks under Green and Baumgartner?? Chatfied played 7 games already for Hurricanes.. I really like Brisebois 24. 6'1 hope he has a great game... I like Juulsen's game, hard on the puck and made some big hits...Good size 6'2, 205, 24 age, local guy...
  5. Yeah I watched Juulsen in a few WHL games he has good size 6'2, 205, Very defensive and ended up getting in a fight... I liked his game and excited he is getting NHL games now..
  6. I think Rutherford will bring in a GM with lots of assisting GM experience and mentor him closely for his 3 yrs before Rutherford retires.. New GM will be under 50 with experience..I like Mallanby but I do think the GM will be one of Rutherfords previous guys...
  7. If we read between the lines Rutherford will know his hires and possibly worked previously with them all..Rutherford knew ownership was hiring Boudreau and new him..Rutherford will have guys that can work together personality wise and knowing the people he hires makes a faster transition.. Very smart of Rutherford.....
  8. Need RD at 5.5 million before another forward...Big no to Zucker....
  9. No 1st rounders now..BIG NO... Why trade Ferland ? At some point you have to make hockey trades as we will always be against cap... Moving a top forward for #2 D man and getting back 1st or second rounder is good... We can't keep trading 1st rounders as we have 2 of the last 3 yrs...
  10. We need his size and speed....
  11. Only 1 million as league had big bills during covid .. Won't see big raise to caps for 3-4 years...Owners, league and players union had to make deal last year with no fans...
  12. This summer Boeser qualifying contract 7.5 million? Big decision to make he will be 25 yrs old?
  13. SO glad Pearson is off Horvats line?? All the line changes Green never moved Pearson off that line... I like Pearson at like 2,5 million he plays top 6 most night and should babe bottom 6 forward....
  14. I agree we will have to trade a top 4 forward at some point in next 6 months? Miller is 28 X 2 yrs left will want big contract 7.5-- 8 million range? NYI need a guy like Miller--- Dobson 6'3, 22. RD, Johnston, 27 6'5, 230,, 2nd rounder. -- . Or Devils,, Severeson 27, RD, 6'2 - Woods 26, 6'2 , 2 nd rounder --- Miller and Motte - Motter will demand 2 million in the summer we have Lockwood to fill his spot..
  15. Was listening to Sportsnet 650 this afternoon and they mention Rutherford had a couple of guys in Pittsburgh that are very smart and do a wide range of jobs and well respected in hockey world....I would think he will be bringing in his guys to support him...
  16. Guys on SportsNet 650 said Rutherford made 60 trades in 5 yrs in Pittsburgh.. He will make moves so get ready in next few weeks...
  17. I would love a McNabb on this team, tough and solid #5 D man..Missing that toughness that makes room for more skilled players...
  18. So hard to find a #2 centre for any team.. Saying that I would only trade Horvat if players coming back were much better... We have 3 C but I like Miller better as a winger.. I still say if your going to trade a player Miller 28, W/C would get you the best trade value...At some point we will have to trade a top 5 player with salary cap life. Would think about Miller trade close to trade deadline and see where this Canuck team is then! I still think Vancouver should be a playoff team but this year the start has point them in a big hole...Very excited to see if Bruce can get team on track.. Go Canucks Go!
  19. Maybe the reason we don't have so many player developing in the AHL is they made the big club??? Boeser 24, Petey 22, Hughes 21, Podkolzin, 20, Hoglander 21 these guy all made the NHL right away?
  20. I agree with you, Some high draft picks and a good prospect under 24 would be awesome...
  21. Don’t think Gillis would ever be back.. Pres— Gilman GM— Mallenby coach—? So many to pick from… Don’t want a rookie coach and don’t want the old coach that is looking for another chance.. say coach with 2-3 years previous experience in NHL…
  22. Yeah I agree Boeser 24, has so much talent and has scored in last 4 seasons, 23, 16, 26, 29 goals... At some point with cap world we will have to make some decisions on signings? Boeser, this summer, 7.5 million? 2022 Miller 28, Horvat 26, Hoglander 21- contracts 2023..Miller will want 7.5 - 8 million at 30 yrs old ? This summer is time to trade him with 1 yr remain.. Horvat - Might sign 7 million range X 7 yrs would be a deal? Will have to talk with him this summer see how he feels about locking him up? Hoglander - If he keeps his play up will demand 3 yrs X 3.5 -- 4 million ? Like I say we have some tough decisions to make and we don't want to be tight against the cap.. That is why this trade deadline might be the time to trade Miller for, 1st rounder, top prospect and 3rd rounder...
  23. Demko has been a top 10 goalie again this year.. Garland, was a great trade and signed for 5 yrs X 4.9 will be a bargain.... Boeser 7.5 million this summer, scary how his production has dropped off.. Miller, you know what you get every game and averaging a point a game since joining Vancouver.. Hughes, should hit 50--55 points and if forward were playing better he would have more points...
  24. I agree with you QO for Boeser is 7.5 millions scary...Boeser is only 24 and was the best forward last year..Almost playing like he is hurt? You don't notice Boeser.. I think something might happen by Friday December 3rd with new President or manager...I really think new coach won't be brought in before new managers.. We all know new manager will want his own coach... It will be interesting what happens with Miller and Boeser before trade deadline.... I really feel this team is a playoff team...Forwards = B -- -Defence =Ct ---- Goalies = B We have so many forwards under achieving Petey, Boeser, Dickinson, Pearson,
