Elias Pettersson Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 1 minute ago, VanCan2023 said: Wow I feel sorry for Shorty calling those games, that is a mouthful for names. Also interesting when Bo is 27 and the old man Miller is 29 and everyone is worried about his age. Ya I know its about his term, but JT isn't that old. BTW our young future goalie will be 27 this year. Our window is opening, but in a blink of your eye it can close even faster. Yes Demko is not much younger than BO, only 7 months. But people seem to forget that. Demko will be almost 30 in 3 years time, so our window is really opening up in the next year or two, not 4-5 years like some people think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-23 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 20 minutes ago, Elias Pettersson said: Hoglander is not a top 6 player. He will be traded for help on defence. Kuzmenko I think will stick in the top 6. If Lekkerimaki is legit then they probably trade Boeser before he becomes a UFA. We have Klimovich in the pipeline who is almost 6'3" 200+ pounds, so I can see him in the top 6. Karlsson is not a 2C, he's a 3C at best and could play on the wing. Also, BO is only 27. He will be around several more years, so we really don't need to leave him out at this point. Podkolzin Pettersson Lekkerimaki Kuzmenko Horvat Klimovich I could see that lineup in 3 years when BO is 30. And we still have Boeser and Hoglander as trade bait for a 3C and help on defence. This top 6 is getting you a wildcard spot at best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Ask Vancouver." That's a true story. Goes back to old school GM'ing and respect or something. However Rutherford has that exact same rule. Who's to blame? Somehow it's Bennings fault. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sxqhfeh Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Does it really matter who they draft or trade for? the team is still owned by the Aqulinis. You guys will drool who ever they draft and he will instantly become a future Canuck superstar in your little minds, leading to bubble year after bubble year after bubble year. is it a real entertainment to watching this team get pushed around year after year and watching you guys lose your minds?

Demko will be almost 30 in 3 years time, so our window is really opening up in the next year or two, not 4-5 years like some people think. Well we need to get a couple steps better before the window can be opened. That's the challenge and JR said he hopes for 2 years but insinuated it could be longer. The good thing is good goalies can play longer and Demko is young in terms of his career. It's probably closer to 4 than 2 to be honest. I'll go with 3 lol. Actually it all depends on what we do with Miller/Bo. A couple players that can make an impact and a couple of ufa's can change everything. To me it looks like we're playing the slow game though and I'm totally OK with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure why people are in such a hurry to trade him. its going to leave a huge void in the lineup. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he'll be good. We could have traded Petey or Hughes and had some cool change and high picks but is that good for the Canucks? If no one offered a good deal for Miller it's probably best to wait until FA so another team can sign him to an extension. At least we didn't make a bad move to suit impatient Canuck fans. To be honest we didn't have the assets to do much. We didn't trade away the pick for crap. We got a very high prospect in the system. Yah! I'll take it.

I'll try to speak on everyone's behalf, for starters no one is drooling over who they drafted. Sports and the Canucks are for fun. It's something to take our minds away from this messed up world were in.I can go on and on about your comment, but i'll conclude If your entertainment consists of laughing at a group of hard working, humorous, not taking life too seriously group of great people holding on to hope through good and bad, makes me think you should reevaluate your life.... Also your not invited to the cup party. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
