DhillonCanuck Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 To Edmonton: Edler To Canucks: 16 overall pick Edmonton badly needs a young defenseman, and there 16th pick is expendable as they have the 1st and 31st, only thing would be to convince Edler to waive To Phi: 16th overall 23rd Overall To Van: 7th Overall Might need to add something else to make this deal go through but this seems reasonable considering its deep draft Draft Barzal with the 7th pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckofSteel Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Why? No Not trading our best defenceman to the Oilers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicklas Bo Hunter Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Barzal is rated like 11-13 range. taking him with the 7th overall would be stupid while both Crowse and Rantanen were still available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baer. Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Suddenly we have no defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avelanch Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 i wouldn't want barzal at 16th, never mind at 7th. talk about wasting a draft pick with so much better talent left on the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's rated much higher in NHL15, which is where it seems like this trade may have been created. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalie13 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Edmonton badly needs a young defenseman, and there 16th pick is expendable as they have the 1st and 31st, only thing would be to convince Edler to waive Unless they have traded with Buffalo, they wouldn't have the 31st pick. The lottery only affects the first round, not all the subsequent rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Philly won't do this for the sole reason that they need to draft a defenseman badly. They'll be targeting either Provorov or Werenski; either one will be available to them at their 7 pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirbs11 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 So Edler and our first for another Center Prospect?? Horvat, McCann Gaunce. Why do we need to add Barzal?? Also the fact Edmonton sucks on D i think just trading Edler and our First to them would get us Draisaitl which is a way better option than Barzal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwags Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Why do some people wish to trade Edler, I thought he vastly improved over last season. Keep him with Tanev. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greetingsfrombrazil Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Edler + McDavid + Hitchcock or McLellan = Canucks crushed in the Pacific. Sure, let's give EDM our best defenseman at the same time they draft the best prospect in the last 10 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiznac Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Not really necessary... Barzel could be available when we pick anyways. If we move up it should be for a solid dman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumerman77 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Barzal is rated like 11-13 range. taking him with the 7th overall would be stupid while both Crowse and Rantanen were still available. Do you actually think Crouse is better than Barzal? Or was that a joke? I think he will go 6th, 7th or 8th. If we somehow got the 6th pick from NJ - I would take Barzal.

baumerman77 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 then either "everyone" will be suprised at "how far he slid" or they just don't pay attention. Hell the ISS doesn't even have him in the top 10 North American Skaters. I obviously disagree with those rankings. I just find it difficult to think teams would see more value in Zacha or Crouse or Meier or Rantanen. Perhaps one or maybe even two of those guys go higher but not all four. Barzal put up 1.3 PPG on a pretty lousy team while have a very difficult knee injury half way through the season. He has an absolute ton of potential and he has proven more than the aforementioned guys at the junior level. Some teams may be duped into picking Zacha or Crouse because of their size but I find it near impossible to see Barzal sliding out of the top ten (nevermind the top 15). I really hope Benning can move up and take him. He would be our first prospect since the Henrik to have legitimate first line center potential.
