It is disappointing trade after trade that we always get the short end of the stick! The Lu trade was a shock but what we got in return is frustrating. If we are going younger then why are we throwning in a prospect?Lu by himself should be able to get 2 players and a pick not have us give a prospect and pay 15%. Cory for a 1st round pick, really? Miller and Ott were able to return 5 players in their trade. Goaltender was not an issue for us, no offence to Eddie but Gillis did not improve our club with these trades. Different time different NHL, when Quinn was the GM but the trades he made helped our club immediately and he didn't seem to get jobbed on any deal.
What player are we going to build around to create this new Canuck face? I have no clue who our future is in 4 or 5 years. How long is this plan that they have in place?
I never thought anyone could make Mike Milbury look like a genius as a GM, but Gillis certainly has in my opinion. I expect nothing more then a bag of practice pucks for Kesler and some water bottles for Edler when they are traded.
