dpn1 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Part of the problem in Leaf Land is they have invested too much money in there forwards and as a result there team is not balanced. In some ways it looks like Brock is the odd man out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islandclarky Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 If a team is willing to give us a 2nd round pick and take on his whole salary,we could give that money to Bo maybe 7 x7 and have some cash for Our next year. Just don't see to many shifts where Brock actually drives the play no matter what lineages he is playing with.I agree maybe play him on poweplay ,try and get him some goals but the team needs wins and the lines have looked pretty good so interesting games ahead.

Go Canucks Go All trades include cap-for-cap or some adjustment for it; no way we get to dump BB's whole cap hit. Imo, Brock is priced out of the market as it stands; but may come back into it with the expected escrow pay downs (and therefore cap increases).

Bruce Boudreau Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 They need to trade this player slow injury prone no two way game or high end skill. No edge at all. If he is not scoring he is a net zero on ice presence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flat land fish Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Hopefully Brock can come back soon at full strength. I sure envisioned out power play a few years ago to feature Brock where Miller sits and thought he would be wildly successful. Hopefully we still see some of that.

Canucks Curse Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 do you think we could trade him to Detroit for Rasmussen or Veleno or their two 2nds for 2023? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Boeser shot from his rookie year is long gone. Now it’s a bit over average, he can’t skate, and he is one of the biggest bandaids in the league. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Gets so much hate but he's got 7 points in 9 games despite being mostly injured this season. I don't like Miller at C and Boeser on his wing though because defensively they're a real mess. BB has to come up with something better because he's a minus 5. Either play Bo and Boeser together or Miller and Bo (and maybe Boeser all together won't be as bad defensively?), or if we really need to break up Petey's line, do it for the benefit of the team because Miller and Boeser just get scored on nightly. Mikheyev - Pettersson - Kuzmenko Podkolzin - Horvat - Boeser Hoglander - Miller - Garland Or Mikheyev - Pettersson - Boeser Miller - Horvat - Kuzmenko Podkolzin - Aman - Garland We've sadly got to protect our two worst defensive forwards (Miller and Brock), not put them together.

Not a good look when, your Stars are the ones you have to be worried about who to play them with, as stars are the ones to raise other's play Maybe we just have too many of the same type of players as a problem with no defined roles?

Crabcakes Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 On 10/30/2022 at 6:26 PM, EddieVedder said: Hes not talented. He cant skate, he cant backcheck effectively, he cant skate with the puck, cant play on the pk, hes not a line driver, and his shot is is nothing special. We havent seen him make a single skilled play all year, including last. Hes a passenger on this club. I think that you're a little hard on Boeser but a lot of what you say is true. He has some hockey smarts that will net him around 25 goals most years. But as for the lethal shot we saw in his rookie year, NHL players see a kid like that and they start whacking him on the wrists and now the brilliant shot is gone. It's still pretty good though. I don't think he was ever a line driver. He's more of a guy who finds seams and sneaks into position to score. He never did improve his speed but I suppose we'll never know how badly his back injury affects him. Defense is lacking but I can think of at least 1 top 6 forward who concerns me more. Benning did him no favours by signing him to a bridge deal with a $7.5M QO. The deal that Allvin got at $6.65M is very good given the circumstances but he's still about $1M too high. His over priced contract is going to put him on the trade block imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benning made the choice obvious, and PA and JR still bit. The clear and only logical move was to move Boeser at last year's deadline. Boeser would have been of interest to multiple teams last TDL, those that wanted a rental only, and those that want a player they could possiblky sign long term.

And before someone replies that they couldn't move Boeser at last years TDL as they were in a playoff run, I would say they were never actually in the race. Even if management believed they were, they surely weren't a Stanley cup contender, and that is all that matters. The clear move was to not only move Boeser, but Miller and Horvat too.

Canucks Curse Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 they didn't get any offers they wanted for boeser, Franky S was spit balling that it was combinations of 2nds and 3rds, but tbh, I would take that now just to get the cap space 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucks Curse Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Retain 1 million on Myers for rest of contract - gets you a mid to late 2nd. Boeser no retention - for a 2nd and 3rd 2023 Pearson - waive that ought to free up some cap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
