PunjabiCanucks Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 With Virtanens play it may be time to move him. With our depth on the RW a hard hitting LW is someone we want to target. To Arizona: Virtanen To Vancouver: Lawson Crouse We upgrade to someone on the LW who isnt afraid to hit , averaging a hit + more / game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Crouse drop the gloves to fight much?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Only if we find a taker on Roussel first, IMO. We'd just be trading for a slower potential power forward. If there was a RD available then I'd offer Jake for that first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would also move Jake as part of a deal to get Domi out of Montreal they don't want to pay him or sign him to a longish term deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJSkingz Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I would much prefer to get a D for Virtanen, if we are trading him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dudes a hard hitter can slot in for physical need. Virtanen and Ericksson + for Mark Borowiecki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pears Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Interesting. Crouse is a more effective player than Roussel so I’d certainly have interest in this trade. I would prefer trading Jake for a high pick or a good D prospect though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To Arizona: Virtanen To Vancouver: Lawson Crouse We upgrade to someone on the LW who isnt afraid to hit , averaging a hit + more / game So... Miller, Pearson, Roussel, Motte, Ferland? Eriksson, baertschi, Goldobin, Podkolzin and Hoglander on the way Tofu, Boeser, Virtanen, Macewan, Lind, Lockwood? Petey Horvat Sutter Beagle Gaudette I'd rather keep Virtanen, he was on pace for 20g before covid. That's solid for a mostly 3rd line wing. 12 hours ago, PunjabiCanucks said: Not sure if Mark Borowiecki | #74 is a Left / Right D. Dudes a hard hitter can slot in for physical need. Virtanen and Ericksson + for Mark Borowiecki Borowiecki wants to stay in ottawa/Ontario/east plus he's one punch or hit from ferland territory. 10 hours ago, Pears said: Interesting.

Rooster is a pain in the ...., Crouse disappears often. Canucks are still building the team, trading a 20g scorer for picks is poor asset management. Unless say jake for 5th OA.

To Arizona: Virtanen To Vancouver: Lawson Crouse We upgrade to someone on the LW who isnt afraid to hit , averaging a hit + more / game I don’t understand the purpose of this deal as the Canucks seem pretty set on LW for the foreseeable future. Miller-xxx-xxx Pearson-xxx-xxx Roussel-xxx-xxx (Hoglander replaces AR) Motte-xxx-xxxx Of those above four, the only player that I can see the Canucks moving on from in a few years is Roussel. I think the Canucks will sign both Pearson and Miller when they become UFA’s. I think Hoglander will eventually replace Roussel in the line-up. If the Canucks are going to move Virtanen, I would move Virtanen for one of the following reasons: 1) To get in on the 2020 draft. Trade for a first. 2) As a sweetener to move a bad contract 3) For a right sided defensive prospect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson and Jake combine for over 5m, its not an easy deal but I wouldn't mind Domi or say Josh Anderson on the Canucks, both former teammates and friends of our Bo Captain my Captain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We sacrifice a little more offence for more physicality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Trading Virtanen for another Virtanen. Seems like a nothing move. Unless we have insider information that Jake is a problem in the locker room or something. Besides we are quite loaded on that left side. So from that standpoint it's a step backward.

Odjick the Warrior Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 No, if the Canucks are going to make a trade with Arizona it is for OEL and Benning should work the phone with who ever their GM is and get OEL for like Boeser, DiPetro, Woo, Juolevi and they have to take either Loui Ericksson or Brandon Sutter back for the deal to work under the cap for OEL and another few players to even the cap numbers changing teams.
