[Report] Eriksson “NOT” likely to be moved on
N4ZZY replied to Provost's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
If Lucic came with Puljujärvi and a pick? I’d consider that deal. -
[Report] Eriksson “NOT” likely to be moved on

Then Eriksson can go and ride the buses in Utica. How you like that Loui?? -
[Signing] Blue Jackets re-sign Sonny Milano
N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Really sad what happened to Sprewell. Tells you that earning millions if not invested properly, doesn’t matter. Eventually will go broke and bankrupt. News on Sprewell recently or has he just gone off the map completely? Edit: he should’ve probably taken the deal that Taylor offered him at the time. LOL. That was one bad decision among many later on. -
[Rumour] Stars shopping Julius Honka
N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
If we're bringing in a player like Poolparty or Honka - they better be able to beat out some of the current players on the roster. I can't see that happening unfortunately. If the Canucks were to try to nab either of those players you've mentioned, I'd have to believe that Goldobin is on the way out. There's not a lot of room for experimental forwards. The roster as it stands is crowded, and we need to be moving bodies out soon. -
[Report] Vegas looking to trade Nikita Gusev
N4ZZY replied to Canucks_fo_life's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
It's hard being a local born player on the Canucks. Jake can be a very good player in the league, but he may not be the kind of player many of the fanbase is hoping for. Middle six player he definitely already is. He's a strong forechecker, and he led the team, if I'm not mistaken, in take-aways. He can steal pucks away from the opposition almost with ease. But what he does with the puck after he gets is, is another question entirely. It often dies on his stick. I get the feeling we haven't seen the best of Virtanen just yet, so I'm loathe to give up on him, yet. But there will come a time when the Canucks will probably either think he's just a bottom six player, and that's where his role on the team will be, or he will flourish offensively before getting to that point in his career. I think he can hit 45, maybe 50 points in his very best offensive output. Not the offensive player I think many were hoping he would eventually become. is he a disappointment at 6th overall? yeah, he is. we all know that. but if he can be a serviceable NHL player, I think we'd have to settle for that. -
[Report] Vegas looking to trade Nikita Gusev
N4ZZY replied to Canucks_fo_life's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
that would be a sweet deal. my question would be how do we afford to get Gusev under the cap, and not have signed Boeser yet? We'd need to jettison both Sutter and Eriksson if this were to happen, no? -

[Speculation] Lucic says he would like to play here

Just.....no to Lucic. -
[Report] Eriksson “NOT” likely to be moved on
N4ZZY replied to Provost's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Do you think if we sent Eriksson done, and he was waived, that any other team would claim him? -
[Signing] Canucks sign Micheal Ferland
N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I think also because of the term. Heard that we're the only team that offered 4 years, while all the other offers he's received was only for 3. -
[Signing] Canucks sign Micheal Ferland
N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Kinda like Bärtschi, no? But indications are that Sven's coming back this season. I'm a little worried for the guy, especially since he's still a young man and has a young family. If he has one more concussion, I think that's it for him and his hockey career period, let alone his NHL career. -
[Signing] Canucks sign Micheal Ferland
N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Yeah. But just because he's scored 20 in the past doesn't necessarily mean he's guaranteed to score 20 again this upcoming season. I guess that's why they play the games! -
[Rumor] Boeser Camp Eyeing 4 Year Deal Worth $28M
N4ZZY replied to buddyguy's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Yeah, well, Benning's job is on the line last I checked. He doesn't have a contract extension that we know of. So he's fighting for his job as well as LE is. WIth that being said, when a GM is fighting for his job, I'd have a tendency to wager my bets on the GM. Benning seems to be making some strong moves this off-season. He probably is, like you say, the wrong GM to be dealing with, or pissing off. JB has everything to lose if he screws up this Eriksson situation. -
[Rumor] Boeser Camp Eyeing 4 Year Deal Worth $28M
N4ZZY replied to buddyguy's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
If JB gets Boeser to sign at 5.5 that would be amazing. with that being said, I don't think that happens. I can see Boeser signing for something along the lines of 6.5 over 4 years, and then depending on how he performs during those four years, either get a sizeable raise, or not. -
[Signing] Canucks sign Micheal Ferland
N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I am excited about Ferland. I think he's going to score close to 20 goals, depending on who he's playing with. If he's on the top six role, I think he can easily get 20 goals playing with elite players like EP40, Horvat and Brock. -
[Signing] Canucks sign Micheal Ferland
N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
It's a step in the right direction, I think as well. I kid about winning two rounds. I know how difficult and challenging it can be to win a round, let alone two rounds. But perhaps with some experience after this season, they make it to round 2 in the next few seasons. I'm not convinced that this team is Cup Contender just yet, but, I think there is a solid core now to build around, and continue to get the right pieces at the right time for a Cup run. I'm excited EP40 definitely going to be better than he was last year, Brock as well, Horvat seems to always and continually be making strides to getting better, and then you have the complimentary pieces like Virtanen, Gaudette, Motte, Miller, Ferland, etc. It's honestly looking like a pretty solid roster as of right now. I think they're going to be fun to watch this year -
[Rumour] Stars shopping Julius Honka
N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Honka at 23 years old is still young. Might be worth taking a risk on? Goldobin for Honka is a trade I'd do. Both players probably need a change of scenery. Though I don't know why Dallas is wanting to rid themselves of Honka. Is he dropping on their depth chart? If so, why. I'm curious to know why the Stars are wanting to trade a former first round defenseman - right handed, too?? -

[Report] Eriksson “NOT” likely to be moved on
N4ZZY replied to Provost's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Yeah. I agree with this. If Eriksson can't beat out Motte or Leivo for a roster spot, even in the bottom six, then he's going to be on the outside looking in. Green ain't gifting him a roster spot. That's not how he is. And it sounds like management is prepared and ready to bury Eriksson in the AHL. Would he require waivers if called back up? I'm not sure. But if he does require waivers, I'm not sure the Canucks are too worried about losing him, when all Summer they've been trying to deal him. LOL. I just want Eriksson gone. He's an NHL player, but he seems to have lost trust with Green with his comments, and also just falling out of favour, and not being able to live up to the contract he signed a few years ago. It's better for both club and him (and his family) to move on and salvage whatever NHL career he has left. -

N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
EP40 will make anyone playing with him look better than they are. He's that good. EP40 has chemistry with Boeser. I'd be more inclined to keep them together. Bo seemed to have worked well with Pearson last year. So maybe see if they still have chemistry together? Miller/EP40/Boeser Pearson/Horvat/Ferland (heavy line for a top six) Third line I can see: Bärtschi/Gaudette/Virtanen Fourth line: Leivo/Beagle/Roussel Extras: Sutter (if he hasn't been traded away yet), Goldobin (ditto)
