Like that management isn't satisfied with anything really and are open to all scenarios to improve the team. Teams discuss players they have with trade value all the time. Especially when the overall mandate of the team is to transition to a younger core and there are logjams are certain positions with others in the pipeline to replace the older players. That doesn't mean anything ever comes of those discussions (sorry, I won't trust someone on Twitter going by purplegrimace for my day to day facts) and this is just something that every team does - or should be doing - with their players when building rosters.

aGENT Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Not the time yet. TDL maybe a small chance if all our prospect D are exceeding expectations. Otherwise, this could still easily be a year or two away from reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knucks16 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I think Edler for number one draft pick aswell top prospect is pretty fair..... Opens up cap space..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Speculation: The Canucks have discussed trading the Sedins, Hansen, Edler, Tanev, Sbisa, Horvat. Dorsett, the 5th overall, and every other option under the sun. Report: The Province is worthless pulp with the sole purpose of delivering consumers to advertisers. Newsworthiness, credibility, etc - not a concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 One thing I'll say is that, if the reports are true, management seems to be continuing the pattern of learning from their past mistakes. Securing Edler's NTC waive list (even if it's only two teams) this early in the process is smart management. It would seem they learned something from the Hamhuis experience (where they waited far too long to get a list, and likely missed out on a trade because of it).

TheAce Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 This is why it was silly not to re-sign Hamhuis who made it very clear he wanted to stay here. Would have been so much easier to trade Edler and get some value for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

combover Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 They can talk all they want. Unless there going to mistreat him (which for this management group isn't a stretch) he flat out said he will not waive his NTC. I believe it went something like this edler- You don't sign a long term deal with a ntc is you want to get traded. So then you get the return from the one team on his list if he does agree to be traded to and it's never market value at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puts up around 40 points a year on a barren blueline. most of all though he's a good defenseman logging the ice time above his ability or paygrade. hes never been the problem and I think getting rid of him now is counter intuitive to having the Sedins on contract.. Edler has averaged just under 24 points/year over the last 4 years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow...not even close. You are overestimating Edler's worth. But if Edler were to be traded right now it would have to be for immediate help. The only way he is moved for futures is at the deadline.

Injuries can happen to anyone, while it's not indicative of him actually producing the totals it's still the rate of which you can expect him to achieve. 2012-2013:: 45GP | 22pts | 0.48PPG (extrapolated to 40pts in 82 games) 2013-2014:: 63GP | 22pts | 0.35PPG (extrapolated to 28pts in 82 games) 2014-2015:: 74GP | 31pts | 0.42PPG (extrapolated to 34pts in 82 games) 2015-2016:: 52GP | 20pts | 0.38PPG (extrapolated to 31pts in 82 games) Anyways, I didn't review the exact point totals year by year but overall you can expect Edler to put up 30-40pts. Either way I believe he's far and above the most point producing dman on our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I doubt the report just because they have said themselves they haven't asked for a list of teams from players previously who were destined to be traded (or at least strongly speculated to be and warranted the discussion). Edler could be traded but doesn't fall in the same category as Kesler, Bieksa, Vrbata, Hamhuis, etc. where he will be imminently or not re-signed.

IbanezRG Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Well I'm sure they've discussed moving every player on the roster at one point or another, doesn't mean they will unless it makes sense for our club. Most likely Edler is staying (I think) because we don't have Hamhuis anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuktravella Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 i hope edler and sedins burr, miller, hansen again have monster yrs stats wise raise there trade value six players maximizing their trade value for trade deadline would be awesome next yrs team will at least have 2 of these guys gone boesser, demko, juolevi, olson, subban all with a yr more development pushing next yr for spots. vegas might pick up one of sbisa or dorsett so one less crappy contract in van Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
