RonMexico Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I would trade any prospects this team has to make this deal work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saucypass Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Honestly, call me crazy but I wouldn't mind surrounding a deal around Bo Horvat. Johansen is young, local, proven true #1 center, incredibly skilled, and has above average defense. We're lacking a true #1 center and we can build around him. I'd trade Bo Horvat+ 2nd round+Hamhuis. EDIT: Out team would look something like this after Sedin Sedin Hansen Baertschi Johansen Vrbata Higgins Sutter Burrows Prust McCann Dorsett Edler-Tanev Hutton-Sbisa Bartowski-Weber Miller Markstrom Got to give to get.

Tom Sestito Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 He floats hard sometimes but dude is hella talented and I'd trade for him instantly But, because of the acquisition of Brandon Sutter, there is sadly no place for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't see them being willing to make that trade if it involves Bo and likewise I can't see what Columbus would want if not for Bo. I could see a team like Toronto being all over this. They have the pieces to make it happen, IMO . Perhaps even Montreal as they have been lacking a legit first line C for a while as well and are probably only a major piece or two from seriously making a run Nashville also most certainly has the assets to make a deal and RyJo would fit nicely there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaner Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 This is thing the Canucks need. This is the exact thing Johansen needs. A match made in heaven. In all seriousness, you can tell RyJo is stressed/feeling the pressure with high expectations to earn him a big contract. If he came to Vancouver, he'd be slides into the 2nd line centre, and It would allow Benning and Co to focus on adding defensman with potential. Move McCann to wing. McCann - Johansen - Boesser Shinkaruk - Horvat - Virtanen Dayuuum, that top 6! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyLuciano Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 how about..tom sestito for ryan johansen?? maybe even throw in Hansen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Look at the way Boone Jenner is performing. Then they've got Dubi signed long-term. Also Wennberg is still probably highly-touted. All considered, could be possible they'd move him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuxfanabroad Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Unfortunately like us, CBJ probably wants D. Suitors? Nashville(Jones or Josi) Philly NJ Such teams could part with good, young D, while putting RyJo to very good use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can make a trade contingent on making another, etc. To summarily discount the Canucks as not having the right assets is being a little short sighted. And even then, JK is seeing what GMs are willing to offer, not seeking out any particular return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's certainly not Kessel to COTU for babies yet born, but we'd best be cautious in valuation here. We're building a sustainable pipeline. If we can nab RyJo(threatening FA-status, for example), then perhaps it wouldn't be so exorbitant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Horvat isn't good enough to build a trade around for Johansen. That kid is a star, Horvat's play has been pretty bad this season. They'd surely be asking for a future first line center to replace Johansen + current top-6 scorer to replace his current production + either an A-grade prospect (of which we don't really have) or a 1st round pick. If we wanted to build this around Horvat we'd have to give a lot more, because he's not really going to be a future first line center. McCann on the other hand... TO CBJ: McCann + Vbrata + 1st + Shinkaruk TO VAN: Johansen If they want defence, give them Sbisa instead of Vbrata. No way I'd still do that trade but that's what they'd be asking for, and they'd get much better packages elsewhere. I think that's the sort of value the Canucks would have to be willing to give up to get this guy. Instead I'd rather blow a good prospect and/or first round pick on a top defenceman.

If he did end up on the team, he'd actually be a good replacement for Henrik as the Sedins age. I'm pretty sure there'd be a spot for him either way. We're going to need skill and points going into the future. Sutter also doesn't need to play centre as evidenced by his play with the Sedins. I doubt we're getting him though.

shiznak Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Hypothetically speaking, if we happen to have a top 10 pick in this upcoming draft, would you trade that pick, plus one of McCann, Horvat, or Hutton for Johansen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duc_evo Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I can see them wanting Tanev now that Torts in behind the bench. Tanev had a stand out year while Torts was here. Van: Johansen + Karlsson + 4th pick 2016 CBJ: Tanev + Dorsett + Sutter + 1st pick 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
