Kushman Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 According to Ryan Biech's article from today regarding Hughes, it seems that as long as he plays 10 or less games, he will be exempt from the Seattle expansion draft in 2021. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether Tanev is moved or not this deadline, IMO, he's headed back East when he turns UFA. Amazing how time flies but Tanev has been with Vancouver for 9 years now. Lots to be said wanting to stay with the Canucks especially since they are on the upswing. At the end of the day he has to secure his future. The question he might ask himself is whether he will be in the long term plans. ie 3 years out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are cap dumping AND protecting players from the expansion draft it’ll cost more than a measly 3rd rounder. It cost Columbus a 1st rounder and Karlsson to get rid of Clarkson and to protect Korpisalo/Anderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pepe Silvia Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 14 hours ago, Ray_Cathode said: Edler has an NMC, at least now, you think he would re-sign without one? Tanev is healthy and playing well, his trade value may never again be this high, but I think the Canucks are thinking playoffs. February will be the month that determines whether we can make it, I believe - three sets of four games in six nights - most of the month on the road - that situation killed us earlier in the year. If we survive February, we make the playoffs, if the Orcas flounder, time for some player movement. As others pointed out, NTC and not NMC. But anyway, yes I do think so. Canucks have the leverage here. Edler wants to remain in Vancouver. The Canucks are not going to handcuff themselves come expansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 When does the season end for Hughes and he'd be available to sign with Canucks? I'm assuming that he will probably play his first pro game this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, that's what I thought. From what I've also heard (here in fact), is that its pretty unlikely his team makes the playoffs in the first place. I think as soon as his College season is done, he'll be signing here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post messier's_elbow Posted January 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2019 I think the Canucks will make the playoffs. I’m a believer now this season. The whole team is playing inspirational hockey aside from the first half of that wings game.. anyways, I’m predicting that Hughes will be Quarterbacking the power play in the playoffs this season. First or second unit who knows but this will all be valuable experience for these young guys. The draft pick position is overrated now with the lottery. Playoff experience is invaluable. 1 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfstonker Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I really am amazed at how many think Hughes will just walk into the team. I have big reservations on that and would prefer to see him help Utica if he is eligible and they are in the playoffs. There is no need to hurry him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think this team has any concern about signing Hughes immediately. It will put butts in the seats and be another reason to renew season tickets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may 'only' be 3rd pairing 5v5 minutes, pp time and perhaps the odd game in the press box initially but he will indeed 'walk into the team'. I doubt he sees any time in Utica. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsiders Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 What is the earliest we can get Quinn? Like no playoffs for his time. When is the last regular season game? Asking because I cant watch Pouliot any longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When is the last regular season game? Asking because I cant watch Pouliot any longer March 2nd is his teams last game of the season I believe, so he could sign after that if they don't make the playoffs. I read that their 1st line center is out for the season with injury and that pretty much killed any playoff hopes for them. How are people going to react if Hughes comes in and makes mistakes and turns over the puck just like Pouliot? It's a possibility. Edit: Don't get me wrong, I have super high hopes for Q and think he will be a smart player. But growing pains are to be expected as he learns what he can and can't get away with in the big leagues.

The usual crowd will panic and say 'see kid can't play at this level, not an NHL'er' or 'he should be in Utica' etc. The rest of us will see it for what it is, growing pains, development and the occasional cost for all the exciting things he'll do with the puck and simply sit back and enjoy those exciting things.
