He is our highest value tradable asset, not sure if he would return a first though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the only way that happens is if it involves trading our 2020 first round pick. Sort of like when Burkie got the extra pick so he could draft both Sedins. I don't feel there are any other pieces on our roster that we would be willing to part with that would actually fetch a first round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we’re out of it and are willing to move valuable vets like Sutter retained or Tanev I think both those guys could garner 1rst round picks from playoff teams. I don’t think Benning would do these types of deals but if we’re looking like another bottom 5 team at that point I think it could be worthwhile trades to look into.

Noble 6 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 A contender with an injury at LD might be willing to pay to acquire Edler. For example, if Hedman or McDonough is injured for a stretch, Tampa might look at replacing them with Edler. When healthy, their blue line is just that much stronger.

It’s laughable what some gms give up at trade deadline. Some gms go crazy to try and save their jobs. -Tomas Tatar for a 1rst, 2nd and 3rd -Rick Nash for a 1rst, Ryan Lindgren, Ryan Spooner and Beleskey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EP Phone Home Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Well one thing for sure is that if there is a year to accumulate picks, it’s this year. That’s one thing tradewise that Benning has yet done very well or often. I thought at the beginning of the year that if MDZ had a better year then last year he would be getting a third maybe a 2nd at best. But now that he’s in the press box I don’t think he could fetch us a 5th. But the season has barely begun, so there is still time to turn things around. We know what Judd and his scouting can do with the picks they already have, let this be the year we get a stockpile of picks somehow...someway... PLEASE JIMBO GET MORE PICKS!

We know what Judd and his scouting can do with the picks they already have, let this be the year we get a stockpile of picks somehow...someway... PLEASE JIMBO GET MORE PICKS! That's been the mindset at the start of the last number of years and Benning hasn't delivered on that front. I don't see any reason why that would change now. Players that were drafted in the 1st round by picks that were moved last year(excluding trading down) include: Dobson, Farabee, Miller, Bernard-Docker, Beaudin, Lundqvist, Sandin and Veleno. A quarter of the picks in the 1st round changed hands and we weren't on the receiving end of any of them. I get that we don't have many expendable assets that would return a first, but there are other ways to get value back. We could have been using our cap space to get more picks by taking back some contracts, but that never happened. For this year, I'd like to see Edler moved for the maximum return, which is hopefully a 1st at the deadline. I don't think we should trade Tanev now that we have two young left-handed defensemen in the system (Hughes and Juolevi) and he would be a great partner for either of them. Then re-sign Edler in the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are some potentials - Moritz Seider - Anttoni Honka - Kaedan Korczak - Victor Soderstrom - Martin Hugo Has - Lassi Thomson Would be nice if we could get one of these guys with our second. Seider and Korczak both bring a physical side Love this proposal ! You seem to be an hockey expert.

Noble 6 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Newhook is kind of all over the place within the top ten in rankings. I saw him as high as #2 in the preseason ranking and also around 8-10. To be honest, the latter is probably a better bet just based on the fact that there are so many good centers. Newhook is listed as a C/LW but is really more of a winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The puck protection is very good, and that's a skill that I believe allows young players to make the NHL soon after being drafted. The agility on his cuts down below the goal line is hard to defend. Obviously, wicked hands. He would, for me, complete our core group of forwards. The only question I have is how high would your jump for joy be if we drafted him? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddogy Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 As a Canucks fan I'm always nervous about overvaluing big physical prospects. I hope the current scouting team appreciates that physicality and physical maturity in a young prospect may mask certain deficiencies. e.g. Jesse Puljujärvi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TGokou Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Definitely impressed with what Bowen Byram is doing. At this rate he should go anywhere between 3-7. I would definitely want the canucks to draft him if possible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
