Bure fan Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 To Toronto 4th round pick + Ben Hutton To Vancouver Roman Polak Trade rumours are swirling around Polak, think he could add kick to an injured D core in Vancouver. Edler and Beiksa being hurt for a while; While Tanev is also out this gives us a stronger back end down the stretch, and a solid group when everyone's healthy. Toronto gets rid of a UFA, with a later 4th round pick and a Prospect (Hutton). 18 points in 33 games this year at the university of Maine. He has the advantage of being a forward turned defenseman, and thereby understands how players will attack in his zone. Has good size, and can cover a lot of ice effectively.

CatsPajamas Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I don't know anything about Ben Hutton and even if I did I'm not sure about the value here. I do like the idea of adding a guy like Polak though. Someone to plug a hole in the ship so we don't sink before rescue gets here (Bieksa, Edler, and Tanev).

Odd. Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 We give up Hutton for a rental why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bure fan Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 We give up Hutton for a rental why? Possibility to sign him if he is playing well, we have an abundance of Defenseman Prospects. (Nikita Tryamkin, Pedan, Corrado, Tommernes, Subban, Cederholm, Corrado, etc...) Like what CatsPajamas said, it's for someone that can help down the stretch before waiting for Edler and Beiksa come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good explanation, but this doesn't fit our trading method currently as per Benning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I'd love to try and get either JVR or one of their many former-1st round pick defencemen. 1) Higgins + Jensen for JVR 2) Jensen for Morgan Reilly 3) Stanton + 2th for Gardiner (his stock has plumetted) 4) 2nd round pick + Stanton for Stuart Percy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toews Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Polak is not a UFA and he will cost more than that. Do the Canucks really need a crease clearing defenseman? He is a valuable piece but to the right team. I doubt Toronto gets rid of him so soon. He complements their young puck-moving defenseman well.

Higgins, Jensen and a 2nd is more likely the price for JVR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesler+Horvat Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I'd do this only of we can resign him. What about Tanev+Shinkaruk+Richardsson for JVR+Polak+Nsh 1st? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
