I'm sure if we win the cup there will be complaints we didn't go 16-0. Lol. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When there is zero reason to expect it. So why engage the narrative? We have an exciting young team; Hoglander, Hughes, Pettersson, Demko, Boeser... In a cap mad world we managed to replace Tanev & Stecher with Hamonic & Schmidt. Added a Vezina goaltender with a cup ring. After knocking off the reigning Stanley Cup winners. But we're whipping up conversations about selling rentals? Yes it was you setting that expectation up. I just don't get why you would bring that up at all. Nope. Clearly over your head. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the reason Benning is waiting till the last moment to LTIR MF IMO. With the playoff format guaranteeing a Canadian team in the final 4 and no cap issues in the playoffs + owners who have always put winning first, I don't see a scenario where we see the vets on expiring contracts moved, especially since they wouldn't be worth much. You can add while still moving out expiring players. This isn't an all or nothing situation. 23 minutes ago, Chris12345 said: I don't disagree with you but who's actually taking Sutter? Pearson is decent but Sutter might be a hard deal with the cap and all. I mean the Canucks wouldn't take Sutter for free based on the cap. Sutter with less than a 1/4 of his cap remaining and potentially 50% retained its easily moveable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billabong Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 A legit nhl’er is getting the boot for opening night but everyone will play this year I still have hoglander as a long shot to make it but it surely is possible Miller-petey-boeser pearson-horvat-gaudette motte-sutter-virtanen roussel-beagle-macewan Hawryluk-graovac edler-schmidt hughes-myers juolevi-hamonic benn taxi squad/quick call ups/practice squad: Eriksson bailey Sautner Kielly The Canucks will want the younger players to be playing games in utica or in Europe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just too important a player right now, they aren't going to move him with no replacement. Its not traditionally Benning's way to make that sort of move midway through a season IMO. (when we are legitimately a playoff team/in a playoff race). Think back to Matthias in 2015 - who was a good but slightly less important piece than Pearson is now - and it was a time when that sort of move for the future would've made much more sense. Sutter I could see. He's more or less redundant with Beagle, especially if Gaud can be more reliable on draws. Pearson they'll use a 'self-rental' before dealing him for futures IMO. why do you think would we trade a centre? if one or god forbid two goes down, we are in real bad shape. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There won’t be any trades at all this year as this is a short rushed season and if trading with American team its a 14 day quarantine and not worth the risk that player missing around 7 games, I don’t see Canadian teams trading with each other as playing each other so many times would be trading to a rival 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren’t gonna move anyone. Depth is going to be super important this year, more then ever. The Benns, the sutters will leave via free agency this year. So it’s even more redundant to talk about it. Maybe there’s a chance at the deadline. One can dream. I personally don’t care but it makes more sense to talk about it closer too 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This teams been over paying vets for yrs time for the whole youth movement good thing benning already said podz will be playing on team as soon as khl season is over so we can get ruined at the first injury? what about the second injury? the third? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
