2021-2022 roster depth chart 

 

Holtz.       Eichel.       Boeser. 

Miller.       Horvat.      Garland.  

Pearson.  Dickinson.  Podkolzin.   

Motte.      Sutter.        Highmore. 

 

OEL.   Smith.              Demko. 

Bahl.   Seider.             Halak

Hunt.  Hamonic.         

Scratches: Schen, Keeper, MacEwen 

Raymond starts in Abbotsford and could get called if an injury in the top 6 as he is suppose to be an absolute sniper that could replace Boeser. 

 

Let's hear everyone pick this a part

Choose one.  Focus.  You sound like you're playing a video game, which is cool, but will detract from what you're trying to do.  Secondly, nobody is doing this unless you have an absolutely toxic locker room you have to fix.  And even then, you aren't going to get the returns you think because players talk, as does management.  It is a pretty big club out there.  I'd focus on the Hughes trade, as it is the most likely to be able to be pulled off.  The return here is something, but needs some work.  

  I'd also stay off the Eichel train.  Absolutely no touch till you see him back in action.  Unless it is a couple of firsts and they're taking back Myers and give us a prospect on D, you are very buyer beware committing actual assets to this, because we just don't know how he's going to play with his injury.  Any team that is thinking about this, is also thinking about that.

  Thanks for coming out, and hope you try again. :)

Hoglander, Rathbone, Juolevi, Pettersson, and Hughes are who you build around.  Podkohlzin is up and coming.  You want to make trades with a focus on not just the now, but where you'll be contract wise in a few years time, and who you have coming in to replace from within the organization, as well as where your organization depth is weakest.  Right now, the weak link in our team is defense.  Our forwards and our goaltending are where you should focus on trading to address that.  And you also have to realize, that sometimes the whole is greater than the individual parts, and if you start messing around too greatly with the whole, you might put together something that looks good on paper, but doesn't have the right combination and styles of play to work together as a cohesive unit.   The greatest insight you can have is how each line will work together, what each individual player on that line does to make the whole greater than the individuals, who drives play, who is just along for the ride, what each player needs to have the greatest possible chance for success, and build that way.

Holtz, Eichel, Raymond will blowup the league and having Seider and Ty Smith the Canucks retooled their player assets to content longer with lots of cap room now like $10Million worth

Might. They are still prospects. I'm a big fan of both but Holtz didn't have such a great year.

 

Nothing about any of this makes sense. The team would be taking a huge step back in the short term in exchange for a lot of potential that may or may not live up to expectations. Way too much risk. But the most important thing is you had fun.
