missioncanucksfan Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I guess we could draft the next Hamhuis at 16 and give him big minutes in 2020?yes coz the Hamhuis of 2015 is much superior to the Hamhuis of 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I'm not as excited about the 16th overall pick to be honest. If we could get that and repackage it with our 1st rounder to move up into the top 10, that's a different story. I would be interested in their 2nd round picks though. If we can give up some lesser assets to get one or more of them then absolutely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falcon45ca Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 This is a new oilers team with an actual nhl gm and coach, not some former players and ahl coaches Benning is a former player and WD used to be an AHL coach...most GM's used to be players & lots of NHL coaches used to be in the AHL.

HC20.0 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Benning is a former player and WD used to be an AHL coach...most GM's used to be players & lots of NHL coaches used to be in the AHL. I think he meant terrible coaches by the AHL statement. Eakins was one of the worst coaches I've ever seen. Benning spent years as an assistant GM too before getting the big gig, unlike Mac T who was thrown in there without any experience as GM. So there is a big difference between our situation and theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Would be sick to net their first, or a second rounder. Lack for the 16th. Schneider style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miltt Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 vey and clendenning and jensen for 16 and 33 No way, we just got Clenner. If we do that then they add Draisatl and a 2016 2nd... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwijibo Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I smell Zack Kassian and Lack to EDM for 16th I don't see anyone taking a risk on Kassian until he gets a clean bill of health and has an extended run of healthy games. With his issues last season a team trading for him right now could be ending up with another Horton situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirensong87 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 No way, we just got Clenner. If we do that then they add Draisatl and a 2016 2nd... Those 3 don't get you 16 nvm Draisaitl. Way overvaluing Van assets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Throw them Sbisa plus a 2nd acquired by trading away Higgins for their 16th. Ideally moving up from 30ish with Sbisa about 20 spots. Maybe throw in a B grade prospect like Grenier too. Grenier, Sbisa and 2nd rounder for 16th overall Draft Kylington and Roy. Let Weber walk. Resign Stanton. Edler - Tanev Hamhuis - Bieksa Stanton - Clendening Nothing flash, but when Bieksas contract expires, let him walk. Re-sign Hamhuis cheaply as a veteran to groom the young guns. Our defence in 3 years time: Edler - Roy Kylington - Tanev Hamhuis - Clendening Corrado - Subban One puck mover and one shutdown defenceman on each pairing.

Carl's Jn Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Lack + a pick for their 33rd overall pick (almost a first round pick) if your going to do that then go for the 16th pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice orca Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 WawWeeeewa! I'm all for that! You understand the Canucks have to play the Oilers 5 times with Lack in net and Kassian on the wing with either RNH, Draisaitl, or McJesus. The 16th pick might take 4 years to make the NHL if at all. You might want to put the WawWeeewa on hold for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Canucks can certainly avoid giving away assets like Lack and Kassian to a direct rival like the Oilers. Sometimes, many time, almost daily in fact, I wonder where some "Canucks" fans' hearts are at. Some people like pain I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
