EdgarM Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 1 hour ago, DeNiro said: So who becomes captain? Petey or Miller. Miller is not accountable enough and is too emotional. Petey has enough responsibility on his shoulders. It would just become another Naslund situation where the burden is too much and eventually grinds him down. So do we just leave no captain for years? I would leave it open at least for awhile. The only one I see that could take the responsibility is Schenn, but who know how long he is going to be around. Please not on another star player please. If he doesn't fight, he should at least be able to stick up for his team mates. You know, lead by example? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has so many unique traits that, in combination, are almost impossible to find. I think the Garland Contract is okay, but it is not great considering how ineffective he has been this season. Ekman-Larsson... I like him, but he is overpaid by about a mil. And Myers?? Womp womp. You sir are correct. While the dollar seems high he is worth it. He has scoring, He has speed, He has defensive awareness ( something we lack the most in the league ) and he cost considerably less than all our useless 1 way wingers not named kuzmenko. If we actually can't just give Miller away I would make a risky deal. Miller for Sean couturier. When healthy we have a selke C behind EP or he's always hurt and we get to naturally tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They couldn’t do it with Miller, what’s gonna change with Bo? They’ve shown every other team their hand. I don't think they really even tried with Miller. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassbs Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Knowing Canucks, they’ll trade BO and 2 first rounders for Erik Karlson 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentSam Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Personally starting to think Bo has planned to go “high” or go home anyway. He just saw Brock go through the despair of not being close to his family as his father aged. If the Canucks offered him in the 7m’ range, im sure their was term to compensate any kind of “pairity”. If all this is true, It’s been up to Bo all along. Cant just blame all this on signing Miller, a valued 1.0ppg game player for 5 seasons. Look at all those other contracts we already have that are overpaying for production. that’s the disfunctional part of all of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Lasso Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 This is just posturing and click bait. Canucks will trade another forward before the deadline, which will allow for yet another ‘best offer.’ In the meantime, PA gets an accurate estimate on Horvat’s trade value. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Drunken Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, King Heffy said: New York's package consisted of a late first, a middle 6 forward, and defenceman who can't play defence. It was literally their equivalent of Raymond, Ballard, and a first. The only way that deal makes sense is if we'd immediately traded Lundvist for something that wasn't worse than useless. You could word it that way............ or you could word it like " A 22 year old, 1st round prospect who was good enough to be the 2C/3C on a very good contending team, a 1st and a defensive prospect " lol you can "spin" it many ways Edited December 12, 2022 by Harold Drunken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with Demko, Hughes etc. Moving Bo signals tear down, imo In that case Miller needs to go too. The team will be bad for a few more years and his prime years will be wasted. And imagine how sulky he'll be playing on a team that could be worse than this years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those three very important pieces and much needed cap space. That deal would have been a huge win for us. But our owner refuses any moves that would be seen as a step back. So management likely wouldn't even look at those offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kloubek Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 1 hour ago, Jester13 said: It has, but he didn't say it was their final offer, just the highest they could go at this time, due to cap constraints. He also didn't say it's inevitable, just that it's not looking positive. Everything could change at any moment. He kinda does: "The Canucks stretched it to as far as they could go." "The Canucks will now take the best trade offer for Bo". Apparently he did specifically say nothing was "eminent", but if this latest offer is "as far as they can go", and if he's claiming something as far as the idea that the Canucks will take the highest offer, that kind of contradicts it not being eminent. But you're right - anything can happen. But the only way I can see us affording Bo is if we move another moderate to significant contract... which is something management hasn't been able to do... despite their attempts.

Now its the main reason we're going to lose Bo. I feel like just as many were saying trade him because this team isn't contending anyways...and here we are, I was one of them.

I know, I agree. I feel like the package was for whatever reason kinda underwhelming as well, it was just missing one was piece IMO....don't know what piece....maybe it was missing a bigger name....we all wanted Schneider but that wasn't going to happen...Kakko has been underwhelming and they weren't moving on from Lafreniere. It just didn't seem like enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickly Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Part of me believes Bo wants a change of scenery. Sometimes players simply want to leave their current situation regardless of their stature within the organization. Can’t blame him for chasing the bag either.

It was easily avoided Toffoli Markstrom Tanev Edler All walked for free under previous management as well. This franchise didn't get A SINGLE ASSET back from those 4 leaving in FA. Let that sink in too. Vezina candidate goalie Top 4 defenseman Top 6 forward Veteran Defenseman 0 picks, 0 prospects, 0 players in return. Playoff chances or not, you have to look further in the future than that. Even then, you HAVE to find a way to get something for at least a couple of those guys.
