Superlative Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 If by any chance Pierre Luc-Dubois was still available (I know he isn't) would you trade for him, if you would trade for him what would you give? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircool Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I think this is a rather pointless question. I think there are 100s of players in the league and in team's prospect pools that I'd be interested in acquiring provided we got a steal, and then there are less, but still a LARGE amount of players I'd like to acquire if we got good value for them... Of course anyone would be interested in a player with first line upside, but it just depends on the cost... So I don't think you'll have anyone responding saying, "No Pierre-Luc Dubois isn't worth a 7th"... He may well turn out to not be worth the theoretical asking price, if you inquired.... But I think that's about as much as you could say against being interested in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammertime Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Olli Juolevi!!! I kid honestly they wanted the kid so badly they passed over Pool party. Which really sounds like fun soooooooo there isn't really anything we could offer them for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroCanuck Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Id give up Elder(aka Edler) and Burrows at the deadline. Plus a second because that's how the Canucks roll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khay Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I would be interested in trading for him. Would be willing to trade one of the defencemen (Edler or Tanev). If the question is, "would you trade Juolevi for Dubois?" Then, I would say no. With Horvat establishing himself as a 2C and potentially a 1C, it seems like we don't have to find an elite centerman anymore (although it would be great if we can). I think a good 2C or a player of similar caliber as Horvat is all we need. I think PLD fits that criteria. So if we can have him for Edler, then since we have Juolevi that can replace Edler, I would do the trade. But if we trade Juolevi himself for Dubois, I would probably not do the trade. We still need a 1LD and Juolevi can be that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stecher is proving to be that potential franchise PMD, and we have Hutton backing him up (or the other way around, depending on your preference). Anyways we have two good PMD now. Once Henrik retires, we are left with Horvat and Sutter as of the moment, which is not a high end 1C and 2C combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juolevi is a good puck mover, but his defensive game is understated imo. I'd rather have both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all great, but I think we need balance. Tryamkin and Guddy can't do all the heavy body work now. This is why we should never trade Edler. This guy is Mr. Everything.

I'd rather wait and see how Joulevi fills out - and I wouldn't be too surprised if Tanev is a trade piece a few years down the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. Joulevi can turn out to be the next Lidstrom or Karlsson, and PLD could be a bust. We never know. I only wanted caution against lack of balance as right now we are much deeper in D than we are on forwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB should trade Tanev this season, providing the return is a young skilled forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superlative Posted December 6, 2016 Author Share Posted December 6, 2016 Lets make one thing clear i love juolevi, i would never go back on that pick. I was just curious because Juolevi and Dubois would be amazing in the same line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
