Commercial Canuck Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I honestly thought that going into these playoffs were the last chance for them. I'm now certain they won't win a Cup anywhere, especially on this team. As sad as it sounds, it's true, and I'm becoming more and more okay with it as the days go by.

ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 So I guess most people here, don't expect the Canucks to win a cup here in the next 3 years then..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucksfan23 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Most likely not but hoping that they do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VancityBeast Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 VERY POSSIBLE!! Just move them to 2nd line. Have a "strong" first line like Getzlaf/Perry. Only then I see them getting a cup. If they are still in the 1st line...Not a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seven pounds soft Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 lol no they won't, they're going to be 35 this year. if they play until they're 40 then to get a few more shots at it our team would have to make the finals multiple times in the next 5 or so years and that isn't happening. they'll be lucky if they even get one more shot at it if they stay here until they retire IMO every time we make the playoffs we have a legitimate shot at winning a cup , therefore if we make the playoffs the next three years that's three shots for the Sedins to win a cup. I don't care what your big pessimistic brain tells u, my heart says they will win one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threadsetter Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I can see them winning it if they play into their late 30's and play 3rd line minutes. Younger core could get it done for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riviera82 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I'd say no unless after their current contracts run out they sign with a contender as complimentary players for cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallstreetamigo Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I always ask myself: "Will the Caucks win a cup before I die?"I am 38. The guy who asked that question when the Canucks first came into the league that was 38 is probably already dead without seeing one. Think about that for a second.

wallstreetamigo Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Without big changes the next two years I doubt this team will even make the playoffs or get out of the first round. Look at the west and the pacific division specifically. Teams will pass this team in a hurry if we stick with tweaking and running with the same core. I would not be surprised to see the Canucks miss the playoffs and end up close to or at the bottom of the pacific with this group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWM_Canuck Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Really hope so but I can't see it being in Vancouver. I could see them agreeing to a move in either year 3 (which would be admittedly difficult because the acquiring team would be taking on $14 million in cap hit for the next season) or the last year of their current deal.

Outsiders Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 If they are our 3rd line after their 7 million dollar contracts are up, maybe. they play till 40 and put up 25-35 points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmilyM Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 My guess is that seriously stacked teams would most likely not have the cap space to be able to trade for them. The Canucks would have to take a hefty load of garbage salaries in return for them. Very difficult to move them together. I'm not sure if they would do so, but once their contracts expire and they're free agents at 37 yo, if any team wants to take them on at their much reduced salary then, I would not judge them poorly at all if they want one last shot at a cup as depth veterans on a contender.

shazzam Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 If they waive and goto a contender where they can slot into their 2nd line, then they got a chance. If they want to do that, I wouldn't have a problem with it. It will set us with plenty of assets for the future. Works out for both parties.
