[Rumour] Jeff Skinner's inevitable trade from Carolina

If Carolina is so desperate to get rid of Skinner, the Canucks may have the cap space going into next year, and if they're also willing to add a future, it might be worth looking into a player with so much potential.

The deal would have to be pretty good though considering Skinner's last year and this year's point totals. 

Skinner + Ryan Murphy?

We have to believe that the offer of a prospect or pick won't be a top tier offering.

People worried about Pedan's future due to concussion issues, worried about Hammer here due to previous concussion issues and will now flood this thread demanding we do everything to get Skinner

 

If eating his contract gets us McKoewn....ya, do it.  The ironing and all that

Adding McKeown would be a stellar add to the Canucks prospect pool.

Higgins, Bartkowski, Weber, Pitts 3rd for Skinner and Murphy.

 

I know Skinner has had concussion issues, and is probably one big hit away from being out of the game, but do you honestly think that's enough to get a two-time former 30 goals scorer, who hasn't even hit his prime years yet AND a prospect who still has potential to be a good offensive defensemen?

A more realistic proposal would be Bärtschi, Jensen, Higgins/Prust, 2nd and a 3rd for Skinner and Murphy.

The need in Van right now is on defense not in forwards. That said the need is not for a top 4 dman it is for a upside prospect or draft pick. Hamhuis's injury simply accelerates the drift down to where the Canucks should finish the season. A recycled top 4 dman does not seriously help the org.

Wonder if we could snag Johansson from was for a reasonable price.  Will prob add a highly coveted player via trade similar to a Duclair maybe less finishing touch.

 

scherberk from mtl? How do u say his name lol. Love for us to get Mantha

McCann/horvat and our 1st would be the starting price

Maybe. In my earlier post I said if "Carolina is that desperate," in reference to the article which is saying they'd move a prospect just to move Skinner's contract.
