Ghostsof1915 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 How about we expose Horvat too? I mean he's approaching FA, and we could use the money on someone else....

Iced Canucks Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 In other news, I am wrong or did it always seem like the Canucks were trying to aquire Sutter way before the deal happened (like during his Carolina days) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 We'll need him to be the veteran presence on this team when Henrik moves on, Horvat is our #1C and we have some kid at #2C. Need that veteran presence still and his ability to take a shutdown role means Horvat can focus more on scoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phat Fingers Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Heck no. Trade Hansen and protect Sutter, Baer and Granlund. We might loose Gaunce (that would suck) but we could give up a 3rd to protect him possibly. Trade Edler or Tanev too. Then our exposure to LV is Gaunce, Dorsett, Beiga, Bachman. We can take back a cap dump/expansion draft fodder back in any trade if possible. Way better than giving up a 26 y/o 20g scoring second/third line RH center that plays a solid 2 way game.

I like Sutter but I think we know exactly what we have in him where Baer and Granlund have more to give. Also, I am not sure Vegas takes him so we keep all of our forwards and lose Biega or Spiza. Are you serious? Do you even watch the games? We are going to expose the one (of two) guys who gets us possession of the puck. Nice. No more threads for you if this is what you come up with.

IBatch Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 7 hours ago, coolboarder said: I wouldn't expose him, I would rather to expose Edler instead as he has NTC and is not a good value while Sutter has a good value for other club down in the road if we need to make a move. Edler has good value but no value when it comes to future Edler's trade as he is a very loyal guy to Canucks organization and would rather to stay here. So dare him to expose and make Vegas decide which Edler or Granlund or Baerstchi. IMO, Edler has more value to Vegas than both of forwards we have now because Edler would want to get out of Vegas asap and will get more value for Vegas than Canucks. The Canucks could in theory make a trade with Vegas agreeing not to select Granlund or Baertschi for a pick and/or one or two prospects, one via selection and one via direct trade or pick. We do not have much in term of depth on our veterans but we have a lot to lose in term of our young pro that is exposed for a future potential such as Subban, and others. I am ok if the Canucks did this. Edler would be picked up for sure and the fan base could move on...We know he's untradable given his public stance on the idea of waving. More cap space could come in handy with guys like Shattenkirk coming available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stelar Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I am super excited for the day that the Canucks post their protected list and watch CDC go crazy about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckFan1981 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I think we need Sutter to help form our identity going forward. So no chance I would expose him... Sutter does all the little things and is a good foundation piece to have depth at center. He is not a true #1C but he can play against and shut them down. He is a Kesler lite IMO, but without the cheap shots. Not overpaid IMO, he would be a huge value to a team in the playoffs. I just know he is a playoff style player. He is a Sutter after all...

IE we ask LE to waive it and we expose him. If we are lucky Vagas takes him and if not at least we dont lose a forward. That would be awesome. You can ask him to waive it for the draft. I can't imagine he would though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostsof1915 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 All those 1968-70 Chargers.....wrecked. 309 used. Only 17 remained after the series. Why couldn't they have used Ford Torinos? Or Mercury Cyclones or something. (Camaros even) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toni Zamboni Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 pretty obvious when playing the pens what we look like without guys like sutts, bo and baer......so no, we protect them if we can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylecanuck Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 If there is any regular player that should be exposed I would vote for Edler, I cringe every time the guy touches the puck these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo fan Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I all for asking LE to waive and exposing him - if Vegas takes him - all the power to them but pretty certain that's not gonna happen - back to dreaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crabcakes Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 When the Sedins retire, and that's coming, who do they have for top 6 C? Bo Horvat and Sutter. I'm fairly certain that Benning will pick a C with his first round pick this year but he could be 3,4,5 years before he's ready for top 6 duty. Sutter is an important piece in Bennings transition plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucklehead73 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 No Sutter brings a lot to the table than just points. The biggest difference a player like Sutter brings over a lot of the fringe players Canucks fans are used to, is pure hockey sense, Sutter can make plays at both ends of the ice. Sutter's face offs, instincts and positioning make him an effective player in many different situations and that makes him invaluable compared to players like Bear and Granlund. IF the canucks make the playoffs this year or next guys like Sutter can win games for us with their overall play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
