Popular Post VegasCanuck Posted April 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2021 1 minute ago, Provost said: You can just waive Gaudette to make space, you don’t need to take on a contract for a guys that is worse than the players on the waiver wire. Upside at 25 for an undersized 4th liner who hasn’t provided significant offence since Junior is just not there. I'm not defending this either way, let's see how it plays out. My gut feeling is that Benning wanted to clear a position for someone else that he believes is ready for NHL and that person is likely Lind and that he maybe felt that Lind was better suited long-term to being a 3rd line center. Time will tell! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that he is not exempt so he would need protection if the Canucks don't want expose him. Gaudette needed protection too so this is a lateral move at best (in that particular regard). Would Seattle take him? Probably not, but it seemed like there was a reasonable chance the Canucks would protect Gaudette if they didn't trade him. No chance. Pretty sure Virtanen and gaudette would have been exposed. Petty Boeser Miller Horvat Pearson (was told he will be protected?) Motte Lind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhukini Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Is Ryan Reynolds still wanting that GM position? Should be an opening after 17 more games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AV. Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I'm learning many things about Adam Gaudette today that didn't &^@#ing exist and are being used to spin I didn't know yesterday. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on man. you saw that video, if they did not follow protocol and if it was them who caught and spread it as a result and put team members and their families (think Hamonic) in danger do you think he could show his face in that dressing room again? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devron Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Like I said do not like the trade but watch him become a fan favourite. That or both players fizzle out like Granlund/Shinkaruk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time will tell! I doubt a coach that leans heavily on vets is going to give Lind that kind of leash (not that Gaudette was a vet but at least he's gotten SOME NHL experience).

UKNuck96 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Oooph that looks brutal tbh. While i didn’t think AG had a long term future here would expected a bit more back than Highmore. Let’s hope he blossoms here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I want Benning fired so I don't have to hear it... of course the same grumpy faces will pop up when the next guy makes a deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brbetts542 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I don’t like the return but I also don’t like gaudette. His game looks to be over rated and will likely be over paid for what he actually brings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
