nickels555 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Just curious what it would take to acquire a legitimate #1 future C. Like a Ryan Johansen...what realistically would we have to give up ? McCann,Virtanen and a 1st ? Bonino (great cap hit for some team), Virtanen, Demko and 1st enough ? Just curious what people thought. Someone in the 22-25 year old range. If this team could target 1 player, i think this would have to be it. Play behind Sedin for a year, then maybe be #1 Horvat #2 and Sedins to 3rd line What would it take to get Reinhart out of Buffalo w/Eichel on the horizon ?

thejazz97 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 On NHL 15 I can get Ryan Murray and a 2nd for Nick Bonino and a 1st. Just thought I'd put that out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baer. Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 The only way to get a #1 is through the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaNuCkSLoUiE23 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I don't think we'll have a #1 center in the future. I think we'll have a St.Louis type of centre core where you have 4 solid centers throughout the lineup, but no high-scoring star center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87Crosby Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Nugent-Hopkins could be a realistic trade target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsiders Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Horvat 50-60 point player McCann 60-70 point player Cassels 30-40 point player (can be Gaunce or free agent) I don't think we need a first line centre as our first need. We need a stud-dman. You got Edler-Tanev (for the next 5 years) Sbisa(for the next 3)-Corrado Hutton-Subban/Clendenning then you still have our Russians Pedan and Tryamkin who still need spots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Professor.of.Perception Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Player development is the way to go! we have a number of centres in our prospect pool who could develop into the #1 centre. As important as high draft rank is, players have been known to both over & under preform their projected potential. next year we could have Shinkaruk-Horvat-Virtanan play lights out and rise to 1st line production. Trading should be to fill holes you trade from a position of strength and wealth for positional needs, like Defence!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Pittsburgh has two of the best centres in the game with Malkin and Crosby. They got ousted in the playoffs. Why the obssession with a 1C? It's clearly our defence that needs work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHL rocks Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 There are no quick fixes. Build properly thru the draft and supplement top end draftes via trades and FA signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo.Horvat53 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 We just need a hard working two way 1C, either McCann or Horvat, and we will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Sit back, relax, and wait till Ryan Johansen hits free agency. He's an RFA after the 3 year deal he signed last fall, so it could be a while before he's a UFA depending on the next deal he signs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baer. Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I don't think we'll have a #1 center in the future. I think we'll have a St.Louis type of centre core where you have 4 solid centers throughout the lineup, but no high-scoring star center. Baertschi-Horvat-Virtanen = Steen-Backes-Oshie? Not completely illogical. But keep in mind Schwartz-Lehtera-Tarasenko is like a 1B line. I would KILL to have St. Louis's forward depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not willing to give too much of our future up. Henrick id a good #1 centre I think what lacked this season was the Sedins back up. The 2nd line was terrible. I'd like to see Kassian with the sedins to start the year with Bo centering virbata and Sven on the second and its time to bring in the youth so as we dont fall behind with the rest of the conference that means Bonino centering Virtanin and Hansen on the 3rd and Cassels centering Dorsset and Kenis with Mcann and Vey on the side. Bringing our youth along now is important with Edmonton, Calgary Dallas and Colorado all growing there youth and ready to take charge of the western conference.

Bieska, Hamhuis, Higgins, Mathius, all must go. Use the money to bring in serious D- Man along with Corrado to improve our D and continue to progress.
