orcasgonewild Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I know rumors aren't much to go off of but apparently Canucks and the islanders were talking trade. Him benning has said he is willing to make a trade if the deal makes sense to them. Defence: Edler: won't go just like the Sedins won't go, he's with us for the long hall. Plus he wouldn't waive for NYI Tanev: benning said they won't trade Tanev and honestly with Edler and Tanev in the lineup we r hard to beat Stecher: untouchable Gudbranson: just traded for him So I don't see him going Sbisa: with his great play I see him as a moveable piece Tryamkin: untouchable Hutton: I think we should keep him but judging by the rest of the team's good play and juolevi, he might be available. Plus he wasn't drafted by benning and if past traded suggest anything he might be on his way out. Again I don't want this Biega: you'll get nothing for him let's be real LOL So from above and remembering preseason lines I think the Canucks know what they want for next season. At training camp they had Edler stecher Juolevi tanev Hutton Gudbranson We all know how stubborn willie is with sticking to lines and we ve see Edler and stech stick. Plus the emergence of nikita tryamkin may take huttons spot. Sooo.... These are my proposals because Canucks are looking for young players. Potential players of interest for benning might be... Anders Lee 6'3 228ibs 26yo I could see it Anthony beauvillier very talented Shane Prince not worth it So what could possible trades be... (I won't add picks because those are hard to call but you'll get the idea) To canucks Anders Lee To NYI Luca Sbisa Or and this one will hurt our feelings cuz we can't see that special smile. but be really cool if beauvillier developes right. To canucks Anthony beauvillier To NYI Ben Hutton In my opinion I prefer to trade Sbisa cuz it's better to get someone for him then to get nothing when Vegas takes him. Plus anders lee is meat and potato guy Anthony beauvillier could potentially turn into a 1st line lw tho. We could potentially have a future top line of beauvillier horvat boeser. So what do u guys think they could have been chatting about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReggieBush Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Hutton was just given a contract. I pray to god we don't move him. Sbisa seems like the most logical guy to move. I love Beauvilliers game so I would like him, realistically we would have to add a piece to get it done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBatch Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Both those trades are viable. I wonder if Benning is prepping the public for a move like one of these as part of his Vegas expansion strategy. Overall I think we will see quite a bit of minor trade action in the league before the deadline and side deals made with the Knights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM_ Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I like Hutton but if we could move him for a top line forward thats hard to pass up. He was just given a contact... and its a really good one and would be seen as an asset in a trade. Folks who watch the Canucks regularly know how good Sbisa has been... i just don't know how other team view him or how highly they would rate him. Benning might have to retain a bit of salary in the right deal but that would be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammertime Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Would love to get Lee. How do you propose we protect him? Anthony Beauvillier deal seems good though. Especially with them exposing so many good D. De Haan, Hickey, etc having Hutton exempt might entice them just as having AB exempt would entice us as were likely to loose a talented middle 6 LW. Sorry I can't seem to make this stupid bar *vvvv* go away I was trying to post something and it just looked terrible. 22 D $605,000 RFA (2017) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I feel players like Anders would be an excellent guy to acquire as the Twins' running mate for the short term. Size, scoring garbage goals and offering a presence in front of the net and middle of the ice are attributes that a PP complement should have IMO. Thing is though, do the Islanders need Sbisa? I haven't been following them very much. As well, if we keep and protect Anders we might risk losing Granny or Sven which won't be the best option for the future. Wonder if we could trade Hutton for a similar, expansion-exempt forward (someone of the Brayden Schenn ilk, who can play center or wing)? I'm not familiar with Beauvillier but if we could get a young P.F. (e.g. Crouse?) that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
