Blömqvist Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 ANA: Hansen and a 3rd or 4th round pick to even up value VAN: Silfverberg Jannik Hansen for Jakob Silfverberg. Anaheim gets a similar producing player in his prime and, most importantly, save $1.25M on the cap which can go towards the RFA contracts of Rickard Rackell and Hampus Lindholm. Vancouver gets a younger player with size and potential. Currently, Silfverberg will likely produce at the same rate as Hansen, but has potential for more as he refines his game and enters his prime years. Plus, the mentorship of fellow countrymen the Sedins, Eriksson, and Edler could help Silfverberg elevate his game. Daniel - Henrik - Eriksson Rodin - Sutter - Silfverberg Baertschi - Granlund - Virtanen Gaunce - Horvat - Dorsett Burrows For expansion, the Canucks will protect the top 7 forwards, likely Daniel, Henrik, Eriksson, Sutter, Silfverberg, Baertschi, and Horvat. It is possible that we could lose Granlund or Gaunce with expansion. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 switch it to Rickard Rakell than we are talking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 It's a pretty reasonable proposal. Fits for a number of reasons. Hard to part with Honey Badger, so it's gotta be worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Alf votes thumbs up. Any potential top six (young) forward for Hansen is an excellent trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also why does Anaheim want a older player than Silfverberg I get it saves salary but 1mil isn't much. Also Anaheim young forward core isn't very good.

cripplereh Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Hansen fits well right now but a younger player that would be a decent trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anaheim put defenseman Clayton Stoner on waivers, possibly hoping that a team would pick him up so they could save $950K in cap. $1.25M in cap, although not a lot, might be the difference they need to sign one of them (if not both). If anything, we could add a younger forward prospect like an Etem, who was once a promising local prospect in their system. As for Horvat, I just loosely used the lines from the Calgary-Vancouver preseason game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoner would save 3 million in cap also. Etem is 24 and doesn't look like will make the Canucks this year. You didn't loosely use the Canucks lineup from the Flames you did use it and only switched Burrows, Skille and Hansen. You don't need a Preseason lineup to figure the lines. All Canucks fan know the Granlund will be on the 4th line and Horvat on 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he will be on the 3rd as a wing. with him and Gaunce maybe switching spots here and there. Which suck because I don't see Gaunce as A 4th line guy either, Gran and Gaunce really screwed things by having good camps, because neither really belong on the 4th based on camp. Gonna be an interesting next couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pending decent UFA will not get you a young top 6 forward, forget it. Hansen has 2yrs remaining on a very good contract. He would garnish +++ interest to a contender at the trade deadline. Regardless, I would much prefer to see him traded at the deadline for a mid pick or good prospect. That way, they can protect another forward (whomever is the best player after the top 6) from the expansion draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely correct, and the key word is POTENTIAL. Silverberg is an actual top 6, not a potential top 6. Hansen at the deadline will return maybe close to Yakupov (Yakupov is younger and under team control for years to come but produces less right now), so like a thrid round pick and a prospect. And yes there is potential that one of those assets will turn into a top 6 four or five years down the line, absolutely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
