Rich to the 4th; using him on the PK - hopefully his ankle heals up nicely in the summer. Bo moving up to top 6. I have Matthias in there for now - but not sure what will happen w/ him in the off-season Trading Higgins, Hansen and Bieksa is probably easier said than done; but this is my roster, and I'm just having some fun here. Or trading a combination of the three; Hansen is the youngest, plays hard, so might keep him. Thoughts?- HK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally forgot about Vey! Might have to make some adjustments. I guess I'd have Vey as my 13th forward; depending on what happens in the off-season.

I hope he has a hell of an offseason, the potential is there... he is just so small. watch the press conference with him and bo sitting beside each other... Bo made vey look like a midget.

Pickly Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Good god out with the old and in with the new. If the Canucks resign Weber and Matthias I'm going to be choked. That lineup may have gotten them into the playoffs this season but next year every other team in the west minus Arizona will be as good if not better. The Canucks will be hard pressed to make it it's just a reality. Start the rebuild ASAP and get rid of the deadweight and let the kids play. Unload as many bad contracts as possible and actually establish some sort of identity and give the fans something to look forwards to rather than relying on the same ol' season after season. I love this team to death but until I see direction from management and legit changes made I have a hard time seeing anything other than mediocre which is IMO the worst thing imaginable.

tacobell101 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 They would not trade Bieska, I could see them trading Higgins or Kassian. Sign Shinkaruk and Baerschi and sign a few UFA'S extend Vrbatta's contract. Thats what I think will happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadcanucks Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Proposed Trades: (1) Vrbata to Montreal for 2015 2nd and 3rd rd. picks. This frees up $5M in cap space. Montreal wants to win now and they are missing goal scorers. Montreal has plenty of cap space to take Vrbata on. (2) Higgins, Jensen or Shinkaruk, Frank Corrado, Montreal's 2nd rd. pick to Chicago for Patrick Sharp and Bryan Bickell. Net cap gain for Chicago: $7.4M and they get a reliable player in Higgy who they could use, two prospects and a high draft pick. This would be a "distress" trade for Chicago seeing how they are pressed hard against the cap. (3) Bieksa to Detroit for Jakub Kindl. Bieksa is Babcock's kind of player and Kindl's been in Babcock's doghouse all season. Kindl is a 28 YO big RHD that has some offensive abilities. Frees up $2.2M in cap space. (4) Burrows, Lack and Clendening to Carolina for Ryan Murphy, a RH-PMD the Canucks desperately need. Carolina is young upfront and could use a vet like Burrows; Lack may allow 'canes to deal Ward; Clendening could possibly be a poor-man's Murphy and replacement for Murphy in Carolina's system. Frees up $4.25M in cap space. OUT: Vrbata, Bieksa, Burrows, Lack, Clendening, Corrado, Jensen or Shinkaruk. IN: Sharp, Bickell, Kindl, Murphy. NET CAP: Gain $4.0M in cap space. Currently $65M tied up in 17 players. These proposed trades would bring cap hit down to $61M, giving estimated $10.5M to round out the roster. Additional projected cap hits in brackets, making total cap hit $69.5M, leaving $2.0M wiggle room. Daniel -- Henrik -- PATRICK SHARP BAERTSCHI (1.2M) -- Horvat -- Kassian BRYAN BICKELL -- Bonino -- Hansen BRENDAN GAUNCE (925K) -- Richardson (2.0M) -- Dorsett Vey (900K) Edler -- Tanev Hamhuis -- RYAN MURPHY Sbisa -- JAKUB KINDL Stanton (750K) -- Weber (1.1M) Miller -- MARKSTROM (1.25M) Six new players...team gets younger...team gets bigger...team speed is about the same as current edition...team is able to compete for playoff spot...team is better built for the playoffs. If I'm GMJB, this is what I would try to do. EDIT: Canucks Key Prospect Pool Forwards: AHL/ECHL - Cassels, Jensen or Shinkaruk, Grenier, Fox, Zalewski, Conacher, Labate; Friesen. Junior - Virtanen, McCann, Petit. Defence: AHL/ECHL - Hutton, Pedan, Subban, Cederholm, McEneny, Sautner, Blain; Junior/College/KHL: Tryamkin, McNally, Stewart, Liberati (OA), Williamson. Goalies: AHL/ECHL - Eriksson, Cannatta, O'Connor (?); College: Demko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwags Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Keep Higgins, but make him a third liner. get rid of Weber, Bieksa, Matthias, and maybe Hammer. Bring up Kenins, Bearcheese, and Virtanen as forwards, and Corrado, Clendening, or Biega as defense. Vey is our 13th forward.

Kassian need to be with the Sedins and Bo should have Virbata and Sven for the 2nd line. Third line Bonino cetering hanson and Virtanin and fourth line cassels centering Dorset and Burrows. You can switch up Bur and Hanson if you want and have Kenis and Mcann on the side. I like your D but Weber needs to be replaced by Corrado and find a good FA to fill Bieksa spot. Same goilie tandom unless someone makes an offer we cant refuse for either of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbadcanucks Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 We could have missed the playoffs without Vrbys 30 goals. If you move Vrbata, you're gonna have to replace him. There are options out there (Patrick Sharp, Justin Williams being two). But it's going to be competitive for any option that calls for replacing a 31 goal scorer, even if the player in question played without heart or looked like a deer in the headlights in the playoffs.
