Canuck Surfer Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Backes? Arseholes are great when they are on your team... Not trading for him. But wouldn't it be funny to sign him and Seabrook next year. Then lining up Backes against Kess in a play off series. That would be FUN! And its not totally unrealistic. We have contracts for Vrbata, Hammer & Bieksa expiring next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Surfer Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Apples? Vrbata + Higgins for Oshie Good suggestion. They could justify losing Oshie because they also get cap space at the end of next year to position as they please after going for it. Would not mind adding something and getting fairly mature (done 3 years college at UND) PMD prospect Schmaltz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl's Jn Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Horvat and Lack for Backes? Cause that's the minimum it would cost. Nucks don't have the depth of assets to give up. I could see Calgary or Edmonton being trading partners with the Blues. i would rather have the third pick from coyotes then backes. and bo horvat is unmovable i imagine in bennings mind.

jijitsu Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 How is Bergland in the faceoff circle? Canucks in need of a good faceoff man especially if Richardson isn't resigned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miltt Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Those guys are a huge pile of disappointment. Good enough to make Edmonton a playoff team. Not good enough to win in Edmonton. Hey, they should go to Edmonton! Basically this, or Calgary, same thing really... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billabong Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 None of them are a good fit for Vancouver but the most intriguing name to me is berglund. He's the cheapest option of the 3 yet the biggest and can move up and down the line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me_ Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Gross. I wouldn't trade Horvat for Backes straight up. Not at all what this franchise needs right now. You're right that the Canucks don't have the depth to make a reasonable offer. Seriously. Why don't the Canucks just fold. According to you and a few others, the Canucks have no abilities except getting rid of the wrong goalie. The stupidity on this site is astonishing. No imagination. All reactionary. The Canucka will never win a Cup and I blame you and your type. And you call yourselves fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see Calgary or Edmonton being trading partners with the Blues. You could have worded it better so that people could understand your point. It's too bad about the lack of reading comprehension among the posters. I agree that Backes would command at least a top prospect or two and probably a first rounder, assets we're not in a position to give up, like you've stated.

mpt Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Bonino and lack wouldn't get you oshie alone. That and Lack isn't an upgrade for St Louis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Provost Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Get bergland Henrik Bergland Bonino Horvat Get Berglund and move Bonino. If St. Louis wants to move veterans and get other veterans in return (presumably because they have the same issue of the same stale core of guys like we do).... then Bonino going the other way works for them. He is much cheaper of the two. They are also in the mix for a goalie, so it is not impossible to have a deal that ends up with a few pieces going either way. They have the opposite strengths in their prospects pool than us. We could use one of their defensive prospects, they could use one of our centres.

Jiggs50 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Oshie is undersized and disappears in crucial moments. Berglund is inconsistent as hell but he does have size and good faceoff ability. Backes I would of loved to have....3 years ago. Canucks won't be in the mix for any of these guys imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chayne Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Backes! Please! Could we unload a Kassian package for one of them? He's right up Hitchcock's alley. I am not into trading anymore draft picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PowerAids Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Yeah...give up an up and coming excellent two way center in Horvat for a whiny, cheap shot asshole like Backes. Great idea I don't think he's actually suggesting that at all, he just believes that's what it would cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockhart Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Backes is too old for us. I don't want us to target any player over 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
