tba - first round pick 

 

The team looks good in net and has medium level talent on D but their forward core is all but similar players..:/ anyone care to guess who should be part of new the core and who isn't or will be traded?

The good thing about all these extra prospects that Benning has started to stockpile is that he has shown that he can add them to a roster player to upgrade that position to fit his vision and timeline for the team. The Bonino-Sutter trade is a perfect example, as last year's team needed a faster and more rugged centre. Look for Benning to make a trade with a current roster player and a prospect (Etem, Granlund, McCann, Cassels, Vey, Rodin, Pedan, Larsen) to improve that roster position.

 

McCann - Dubois? - Boeser

Baertschi - Horvat - Virtanen

Granlund - Gaunce - Sutter

 

Chychrun? - Hamonic

Hutton - Tryamkin

Olson

canucks need to ditch mccann vey and granlund, no idea why benning wants small soft centers who are bad at D and faceoffs

Vey is a centre on a team full of centres and seems like good trade fodder. Seems like a no brainer.

well, a few month ago the canucks said that the sedins will not be traded and retire as canucks. what if they decided to do it this summer? it is much easier to get quality wings from ufa than centers so they need all the depth a center.

My guess is that McCann will be traded. There are already rumours out there about his problem attitude. If Benning pushed for Sequin to be traded because of his attitude, I can't see McCann lasting if rumours are true.

I have heard no such rumors. From whom have you heard this from? Just out of curiosity.

Unless he heard it from Botch or Pratt, he didn't hear it because it isn't true.

That hack journalist Tony Gallagher said on his podcast, so take it for what its worth. Not too sure if Tony is just starting up sh*t like he always does or if he actually knows anything.

Yep, unless it comes from Pratt because he always tells the truth?

He dropped in the draft because of such rumors, so there is probably some truth to it. This dose not mean he is a write off. Having a chip on his shoulders could be a good thing. He will either put the work in and improve or he won't. Every prospect has things to overcome. They are people.

This thread is full of derp.  Mccann not part of our future core?  Kid barely has a season in him and people already writing him off...if I remember right, JB had multiple calls regarding Mccan after/during the draft to trade for him.

 

Give him at least another season, then judge him then.

 

I'd only trade him if we were fleecing a desperate GM.
