Smashian Kassian Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 If u can get anything for Rathbone take it. As far as Myers / Labanc, the swap makes no sense to me (as someone who wants Myers gone), rather than add another winger we don't need we could just hold onto Myers & trade him at the deadline for something ourselves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he’s dealt as a slight sweetener in any deal that might require it. I don’t think he has a future with us, but might in the NHL with another club who is starved for offense on D. PIT might be a destination as Letang is getting on, and especially if they don’t deal for Karlsson Garland + Ratbone for Pettersson would be almost cap neutral. They'd have to like Rathbone over POJ though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckwings Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 I think the most likely scenario for Canucks at this point is to start with Myers in the lineup and hope he'll motivate himself to perform better for his next contract, and we can flip him for something at the TDL to a contender that needs some depth for the playoffs.

If he’s playing well enough to draw attention from other teams and the Canucks are in the playoff mix I don’t see them trading him. Only way I see him getting traded is in September after his bonus is paid, or if the Canucks are well out of the playoff picture again come deadline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck73_3 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 (edited) Saw a post regarding a 3 way deal involving Karlsson/Myers/Pesce that looked interesting. Carolina getting EK, Van getting Pesce, SJ getting Myers. No further details about other pieces moving around.

EK with 30% retained. It was just a twitter based proposal not a true rumour. Careful with Canucksdaily they post fantasy proposals as if they are news. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is certainly interesting, but don't think we have cap room to facilitate this deal. We'd have to dump contracts which means throwing in more draft picks on top of the first. Just the thought of that drives me crazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's playing well and we feel that it's largely from finally having a complementary D partner, and playing behind Hughes-Cole and Soucy-Hronek, with some actual systems in place, puck support from F's and solid coaching from Gonchar and Foote....AND we feel there's either a kid ready or Bear healthy to replace him...I'd still move him. Don't see us extending him, and we're still in no position to let assets walk. If we can get pieces from him AND clear his cap to add elsewhere in the lineup and/or take on cap for futures at the TDL... in a heartbeat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just having Myers not paired with OEL will be an improvement. Those two together equaled clown city. I can't even count how many goals went in where one or both of those players were out of position, in no mans land, looking dazed and confused. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billabong Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 (edited) I ASSUME this includes a 6.5m/8yr extension for pesce and this would free up around 6.5m in cap space for the 23-24 season to make another move… Edited July 5, 2023 by billabong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
