If a team can trade and sign for Bo we should be able to get a greater package vs. what a package would be for him as a rental. Create a bidding war for an extended Bo. i see no reason why bo would do the canucks a favor and do a sign and trade to screw his new team of extra asset. not for the current management group anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo wants his bag. lol he's getting his money guaranteed regardless in the UFA? why wouldn't he want to go thru free agency process?? it's not like he's going to sit there past july 1st waiting for a team to call him.. there'd be a long lineup of teams wanting to sign him and he get to pick and choose the team.. no player worries about an injury that derails their contract.. his goal is the secure the bag and win a cup. he can easily negotiate the contract with the new team AFTER he's traded if he's worried about injury and not cost his new team extra asset that could be used towards the cup.. perfect way to stick his middle finger up at JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel I am of a very small minority that appreciates local ownership spending to the cap lol.....been through all the owners.

Frankly they don't have the assets to pull that off. I think Schenn will be bid on by Boston, Tampa, and Toronto with the team providing the best draft pick or picks as the winner. Horvat may not bring the return type we are hearing but I would bet money its a team that moves off one if their top 3 prospects, a roster player under 25 yrs old and depending on the prospect likely a pick. I dont see a sign and trade. Vancouver since Gillis has shown no desire to be creative, weaponize cap, or think outside the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alflives Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 1 hour ago, Maginator said: Which was "under market value"... JR is negotiating. He shouldn't do it public, but he clearly chose to do that. IMHAO Bo will be extended before the TDL. Bo, Miller, Hughes, Petey, Demko are not the problem with this club. It's the supporting group who aren't good enough and eat up way too much cap for what they provide. OEL, Myers, Garland, Boeser. Those four need to go. Big mistake just not letting Boeser walk last summer. Garland might be able to be traded to clear his cap. Fingers crossed. Myers is gone TDL 2024. We are stuck with OEL unless our owner approves a buyout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herberts Vasiljevs Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) One of the things about a Bo trade is that, in the upcoming draft, I would say that the odds are pretty good that we'll be selecting a centre in the draft with where we're projected to finish and who's available. If we win the lottery we take Bedard, if we win the 2nd we probably go with Fantilli (or maybe Carlsson), and at the 5th to 8th pick we may end up with someone like Smith, Yager or Dvorsky. Long-term, either guy would slot right into Bo's spot. Edited January 19, 2023 by Herberts Vasiljevs 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
