(Proposal) Younger Competitve NHL team + Trading up in the Draft for Domi & Horvat


Recommended Posts

In this proposal, I gave up our 1sts in 2013 and 2014 in order to get a younger NHL team. But in return, I proposed we get two higher picks in this year's draft to get Max Domi and Bo Horvat, who in my opinion are the next best duo to MacKinnon and Drouin.

It may hurt to see I've proposed to trade Gaunce and Jensen, but its for the benefit of the whole team.

The final roster has increased skill in the top-6 and increased size in the bottom-6. The defense is sized up a bit as well.

COACHING STAFF: My preferences in order from Left to Right.

Head Coach: Dave Tippett / Lindy Ruff / Dallas Eakins / Glen Gulutzan

Offense/PP Coach: Lindy Ruff / Brent Sutter / Trevor Linden

Defense/PK Coach: Larry Robinson / Uwe Krupp

- This roster is ~$1.1 million over, so because Gryba and McLaren are on 2-way contracts, they will have to start in the AHL.

Window's closing bud. BIGGER, YOUNG, AND COMPETITIVE. These deals would make the Canucks competitive while being big and young. No need for prospects that will be ready when the Sedins and the majority of our core sucks. Players who help our team NOW is way more important. But keep getting attached to players. Just going to be disappointed. This is a business.
