d_washington Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 More speculation than anything in the article but I could definitely see a great fit here especially for Vrbata in their top 6. Personally I see us keeping Vrbata for the season and trading him off at the deadline to a playoff team (1st rounder?) but if you could get a package like Bowey + would you do it? What would the caps have to offer in terms of what Benning might be looking for (almost NHL ready prospects)? http://thehockeywriters.com/canucks-radim-vrbata-excellent-trade-option-for-capitals/ And yes after 10 years here I still don't know how to embed an article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhippy Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 If we could obtain Bowey and a 1st or a 2nd and 3rd for Vrbata you pull that trigger and run like hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiggs50 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 If the Canucks are trading Vrbata (highly doubt it) they should wait till the deadline. 1st rd pick and a top prospect easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeanBeef Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Bowey or Wilson would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erkayloomeh Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 It wouldn't surprise me if aquaman, benning and linden have decided to tank. They see that maybe our chances of staying competitive are dwindling and decide to change gears. More trades would not surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks Curse Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 No way wash trades Bowey I'd be happy with a 1st and 2nd, we can send them a sweetener like Jo lebate or our amazing new signing this spring- saunter!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filthycanuck Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 No shot he gets us bowey and a first. Maybe one or the other. Vrbata and fat boy kassian for bowey and kuznetsov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
higgyfan Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Vrbata has a limited NTC and I suspect he wants to stay in the west. He will be in high demand by contending teams at trade deadline. JB will finally have a player that will bring back decent value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanuck Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Verby, Kass, and Jensen for Bowey and Wilson. Wait until deadline when Wsh can smell playoff run! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noseforthenet Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Expecting Bowey to make the team this year. Probably why Green is an FA. I hope he's available to get for Vrbata at the deadline, but I have a feeling that's a nope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_washington Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 I think a package centred around Bowey is the exact type of trade the nucks need to make in this point in time. NHL ready, young, physical, knows how to win. I think a great replacement for Bieksa more than any of our current D prospects looking to make the jump. He was a 2nd round pick so I'm not sure it would be so unrealistic if people are talking about 1st's in a supposed deep draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thad Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I'd do it in a heartbeat for Bowey. They can get a top six forward without giving him up though. If somehow you could snag him, I'd go for it and accept the even further step back this year. Imagine you got him and the step back tanked us all the way to chychrun.
