That is nothing to scoff at in my opinion, but you said Ehlers lite so I don't know what how that would translate over in the NHL unless there is a player comparable you could come up with that is on another team maybe? I think it's some people still sour for Canucks not picking him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the products sucks because he’s an idiot his customers have every right to tell him and call him on it. He can choose to listen or choose to continue to do the same stupid thing over and over.( we know what Francesco chosen) with out the paying fans he has nothing but a dead pet. I rather have a good owner that lets the highly paid hockey ops people do their job Even if he doesn’t spend to the cap Who cares if he spends to the cap when he create countless stupid mistakes that hurt the teams ability to win . So blindly accept he’s the owner ,have no rights to to complain about the on ice product because he spends to the cap. To the same point then You have zero right to disagree with the GMs or coaches because those are the guys the owner choice and he spends to the cap so shhhhhhhhhhh. just pay go to the game and accept it because he spends to the cap lol. Great if that works for you really not much to discus since it’s all his choice and he spends to the cap and it’s his team lol. he’s a shit owner he has been since day one hopefully his days as the ceo are number. Good riddance. Francesco’s Canucks Canucks never rebuild properly in its entire existence, if I'm correct, especially under Francesco Aquilini's direction. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre cap team with money didn’t need to build they just bought. if you don’t have a realistic plan and people that know how to execute a rebuild nowadays you end up with what we got. A perineal dumpster fire. Throwing money at the cap doesn’t solve problems it just compounds them. the entire league is so cap screwed I could see the NHL allowing no penalty compliance buyouts again this summer or next.

-Vintage Canuck- Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Potential Fits The line for Horvat will be long. Boston Bruins: The Bruins are lapping the league and have some serious Last Dance vibes this year. David Krejci has been great after his short hiatus in his native Czechia. But Krejci and Patrice Bergeron are both on the brink of retirement. Horvat is the perfect short and long-term option to boost Boston. He could help entice David Pastrnak to re-sign. The only problem is the Bruins are light on assets. Carolina Hurricanes: 2C is the one position the Canes lack. Jesperi Kotkaniemi hasn’t panned out and Jordan Staal is better suited as a 3C in a shutdown role on a contending team. That leaves the Canes to play Paul Stastny and Derek Stepan as high as the second line. Enter Horvat. It isn’t the Canes’ style to go all-in, or pay a 28-year-old free agent market rate on a long-term deal. Maybe they break their mold to make a push this year with Horvat as a pure rental and flip his rights for draft picks before July 1? Horvat makes too much sense in Raleighwood. Colorado Avalanche: You can’t count out Colorado as the banged-up defending champs are still searching for Nazem Kadri’s replacement. Horvat would inject instant offense and make their power play even more lethal, the perfect Kadri successor in the bumper spot. The issue is the cost, not necessarily in terms of assets, but cap space for this season and beyond. They’d need to move on from Samuel Girard, which would give the Avs room to re-sign Horvat if they acquired him. It would be prudent for the Avs to at least explore the cost. Minnesota Wild: The Wild would love to have a top-flight center who could make magic with Kirill Kaprizov. The tricky part is Minnesota is tight to the cap for the next few seasons as a result of the Zach Parise and Ryan Suter buyouts. Every move must be viewed through that prism. If they shuffled some parts around, Minnesota could make it work, and they have a stable of young prospects and roster players that might get Vancouver excited. Washington Capitals: Nicklas Backstrom is back for the Caps, but it remains to be seen how effective he’ll be after a mostly unprecedented hip resurfacing surgery. Either way, the Caps lack youth coming and could use an infusion of known talent to not only assist the Great Eight in his pursuit of the Great One, but also make Washington a legitimate threat in the Metro for the next several years. The Caps’ asset pool is light in terms of prospects required, but they have the cap space and future cap flexibility to be a player if interested. Non-Contending Teams: Where it gets really interesting with Horvat is whether any non-playoff teams decide to throw their hat into the ring. They know this might be their only chance at acquiring the player because there’s a real chance he’ll never make it to the free agent market. Would Columbus make sense as they lack centers? What about Detroit if they’re not keeping Dylan Larkin? https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/rental-or-trade-and-sign-the-potential-trade-paths-of-vancouver-canucks-bo-horvat 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
