And the only reason i say this is because that combined identity of those two players is what we need less off, unfortunately. I would replace these two with gritty larger forwards who play with intensity, consistently. 2 F who can immediately create that impact. If I was GM, I would truly consider offering EP or BB to MTL for Josh Anderson. His profile is exactly what should be the Canuck prototype when it comes to retooling this roster. I believe it would also dramatically help shift the locker room to more of a workhorse mentality. As for the other forward…any thoughts? Josh Anderson hasn't done anything close to what Petey or BB has done. He's not a consistent scorer either. I would pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a serious Contender. You tell me who will be that team this year. Nobody knows. You have to have a lot of things go right to be a cup champion.

They were the best team in the league for a few years there with a trip to the finals. That's a contender. Unfortunately, since the Sedins peaked so late, the window wasn't open very long, but that was definitely a contending team. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe with luck he could fit in with a new team and get some confidence back. I told all my friends the same thing years ago with the other high paid player Luongo. Said they would never win a cup with him because he choked on all the big saves when it really counted. Imagine if the AVS went that route with a young, struggling MacKinnon...

I understand what you’re saying though. Teams finally figured out the Sedin cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or else the cup would always be won by the presidents' trophy winning team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
