WestlockWarrior Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 A high 3rd for our backup goaltender in a deep draft. Not bad when you think about it. Its easier to join mob mentality than to use logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucks_kcchiefs Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Disaster. Everything looked so promising yesterday. Lack gone for peanuts and a debatable pick in Boeser (not BPA, didn't fit organisational need, but still not Carlo). Ownership want us to go out in the first round every year and have no real interest in doing what it takes to really win (lose, a lot, for a few years). Patience will run very thin in this city now. Most of the new management's moves have been poor (Vrbata and Bärtschi being notable exceptions). Why do you say Boeser wasn't the BPA? Cause a few internet and tv "scouts" say otherwise? BPA is objective. Like in every draft, some players won't be as good as they were projected to be. Likewise, some players will turn out better than projected. As far as RW not being a position of need, what would you have preferred? I don't see how RW isn't our biggest need after defence. Weren't any defenceman left that they were comfortable with, so Boeser it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firestorm238 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 This is tough to take when Talbot is apparently worth a first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestlockWarrior Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Correction Miller was better than Lack......5 years ago. Lack has the edge over Miller in every aspect, except for the W-L record. So you mean Lack has the edge except for the most important stat. Win-Loss Ps I'd much rather have Miller +3rd + Markstrom vs Lack + Markstrom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Dog Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I figured we'd get more. With the goalie market how it is and with us being up against the cap JB and co. must of had their hands tied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucks_kcchiefs Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 This is tough to take when Talbot is apparently worth a first. If he was worth a first, I'm sure he would have been traded for one before the first round ended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 This is tough to take when Talbot is apparently worth a first. Talbot hasn't been moved yet has he? So they won't be getting a first this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I always hear such justification from apologists.If Lack were on a key US franchise, he gets a 1st.Two rulebooks.Two-tiered league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thad Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I honestly would have been cool with trading Bieksa for a 2nd and hanging on to Eddie past the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestlockWarrior Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I honestly would have been cool with trading Bieksa for a 2nd and hanging on to Eddie past the draft. Then you miss out on drafting a player in one of the deepest drafts. And Bieksa was never close to getting a 2nd. The sooner people value our players fairly the sooner we can move forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saucypass Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Vey took a 2nd from us... Lack gets us a 3rd and a pity pick? Cmon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalie13 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I'm sad to see Eddie go, but as long as Markstrom doesn't fall apart, I'm OK with it. There's no guarantee Eddie will even re-sign with Carolina when his contract runs out next year so I can see how a 3rd round pick was the going price. Now I can't wait to see what this Demko kid can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRussianRocket. Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 The price is worth it to be done with yet another goalie controversy. All the best, Eddie. You will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Dog Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I guess teams recognized that we were not in a position of strength with being up against the cap and with the goalie market. Hence the low return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lui's Knob Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Nice job - sold undervalue again. Does this guy ever get the most out of a deal?What a goat of a fm compared to others in the conference. Lesson - sell at the trade deadline!!!! Don't sign an agin vet goalie to a dumb hands tied contract! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucks_kcchiefs Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Vey took a 2nd from us... Lack gets us a 3rd and a pity pick? Cmon! It's only a 16 spot difference and this is a deeper draft. Also, comparing goalie to player trades don't work. There is only so many goaltending jobs in the nhl, and only one plays each game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumerman77 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Why trade Lack for such a low return? Why not just trade Markstrom for a 7th rounder? I think this draft has crystallized what a poor GM Dim Jim really is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
