That is what happens when you need to unload cap space. Other teams take advantage of you. The ED will put teams in a position where they will be looking to recoup anything possible from a player that they know they will lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanuck Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 On 6/22/2021 at 7:21 PM, EddieVedder said: Why is our best and most important player centering the 3rd line? JB stated publicly his goal this off season is to somehow create 3 lines that can score. Barring a significant trade and/or UFA signing BoHo makes the most sense as the candidate to anchor this new 3rd scoring line since I don't see EP, Miller, BB, Pearson, or Hogs in that role. That said JB indicated he will make whatever changes necessary so I guess we'll see soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 MIN has two 1sts (#21 and #25) Benning said he wanted to get bigger/more physical on D to MIN: #9 to VAN: #21 and Soucy (26 yrs, 6'5" 211, makes under $3) +? MIN gets into the Top 10 and unloads some salary VAN gets a big Dman to help now, and drafts a C (Raty, Svechkov or Bolduc) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can then draft a Center prospect at 9th and we get a youngish top 4 right handed dman in the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can then draft a Center prospect at 9th and we get a youngish top 4 right handed dman in the lineup. Benning believes the contender window truly opens in 2 seasons. That 9th overall pick could be part of that contender window. Dumba is only under contract for 2 years. Don't really see why they would trade for someone who could be a 2 year rental. His contract would be up at the same time as Horvat, Miller, Höglander. Dumba is also not the best fit. Vancouver has troubles defending and he needs a solid D partner to cover for him. Tracking companies like Sportlogiq and CSA had Vancouver pretty much as the worst defensive team before even the Covid outbreak. Last season already they were in the bottom tiers. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xur Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) I'm getting more convinced to grab Lysell. Fastest player by far. They call him the swedish roadrunner. Has all the skills. He isnt on alot of top 10 lists so he might fall to us. Edited July 5, 2021 by Xur Spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much better will he be with another (almost) full year of maturation? He’s close to being in the 2022 draft. I have had a feeling he might fall to us at 9? Do you think he's NHL ready? My argument against drafting a d is that they typically take longer to develope. And I would rather have someone who can contribute right away. And if we have to wait 2 yrs for any of them then I would like to trade the pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hogs & Podz Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Svechkov the russian Bergeron!... There I said it! He's my guy. The more I dig into his highlights and reports, I think he may turn out to be top 5 in this draft! But I'd be happy with Mctavish, Lucius, Lysell or Johnson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a little bit of luck one of them is going to fall to the Canucks pick in the 2nd round. Obviously Canucks need a RHD in this offseason not in 4 years from now. Just look how long it will take Jett Woo to arrive at the NHL. Woo was drafted by the Canucks in the 2nd round with the 37 pick in the 2018 draft. He needs another season in the AHL with Abbotsford. That means a development time of 4 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
