GB5 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Time to build from the net out. Defense is what this team needs, one or two minute munching defenders. I think if deployed right this team has plenty of scoring and prospects to work through the forward ranks as it stands, the depth could get challenged if injuries erupt but the top lines look pretty good imo.

KKnight Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Now that Schmidt is most likely dealt, along with Holtby. Edler, most likely not coming back. I target.... 1. Jake McCabe (could be good value, depending on his knee) 2. James Reimer or Brossoit 3. I'm really not sure how to address our Right D, still a bit butthurt that Seattle signed Larsson.

Smashian Kassian Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Jujhar Khaira not being qualified by EDM. Dont know if this is speculation or Spector know something but I'd be on board with bringing Khaira in on a cheap deal. Size, skated well, hard nosed player, and has a decent shot too. Would take him over guys like Boyd & Hawryluk on our 4th line. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can really skate, and plays hard. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Khaira is great when he's invested in the game, completely invisible when he's not. He had 2 really big concussions to end the season (one from being knocked out in a fight, and another from coming back way too soon after his lights got shut off from said fight) so his health is a huge question mark. I'd prefer a guy with a more consistent motor but on a league minimum contract to have him in and out of the lineup if his health is okay isn't a bad decision.

It's interesting, if he can still play, we'd have to remember not to boo every time he touched the puck. I think Coleman would be a great fit here, but there are many options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maniwaki Canuck Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) We've got room to do a few things. Let's say new contracts for Petterson (8.5) Hughes (7) Garland (4.8) and Dickenson (2.2) come in at 22.5 mil for the sake of argument. Our available cap: 18,789,341 Trade and buyout candidates: 12,800,000 Virtanen: 2,550,000 Schmidt: 5,950,000 Holtby 4,300,000 LTIR Ferland 3,500,000 That gives us around 13 mil to spend. Should be able to get a couple of stay at home RD, a backup goalie and a quality 3/4C out of that Edited July 25, 2021 by Maniwaki Canuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertuzzipunch Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) Id be happy just to get a 3rd and maybe a 5th for schmidt for next years draft. trade for Gudas(2.5 aav) sign zach bogosian or luke schenn for cheap (1.4aav) 2 yr 3 mill for janmark (1.5aav) Thats 5.4 mill right there Sign jouveli, sign mcewen? Who else do we need to sign? Is gadj signed? Edited July 25, 2021 by Bertuzzipunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Canucks should at least kick tires on Nick Bonino, just to see how cheap he might be available. It might be a little weird bringing him back, but I doubt there are any bad feelings from the Sutter trade, and I’m sure Bonino’s Cup rings make it all water under the bridge. Bonino is still good for about a half point per game, drives play, is solid at both ends, wins faceoffs, can play C or W, is great on the PK, and since turning 30 has actually had some of his best seasons, by the analytics, averaging 2 wins above replacement over each of the past three years. I’m seeing predictions of around $2M AAV for his next contract, which would be a bargain, especially if it’s the short term deal, and he can maintain recent performance levels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

70seven Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Pretty damn sure Van will acquire Khaira. Makes so much sense to market him to the Punjab community… which is hella large in the lower mainland. Plus he has good size, skates well, and works…. Sounds like a Travis Green guy to me.

Who else do we need to sign? Is gadj signed? A 3rd and a 5th? What happened to the circus of appreciation for Schmidt when he arrived? This past season was a short, weird one. If Schmidt wants out or if he's an unprofessional clown taking the team down in the dressing room, then I completely get trading him. But he should be worth more than that. If a good trade isn't viable, I say we put his butt out on the ice with this team and let the coaches do their work. This year's team will be different than last year's. For the better we expect.
