Yea the Canucks want him, which is why they’re working to re-sign him. Would some people find this deadline a success if we traded Motte for a late 2nd? Like I can never understand why people get so hyped over 2nd round picks. So that in five years we can lose a bust to waivers. Give me Motte on a 4 year deal at 2.25 and I’m happy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If some people are disappointed with this trade deadline it’s their own fault. Too many pie in the sky proposals that were never gonna happen. Good luck thinking we can resign him and then have enough money to go out and build around him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we making a playoff after this move, he will be on Canucks roster next year? He cost nothing because we claim him? To me, it's not a move forward after you missing the playoff (and yes we are out!). But you still want to be competitive, especially with the gauntlet of games coming up, you can't have a 70% PK in these games and Brad should help here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All depends on what contracts can be moved in the summer. If they don’t think they can give him what he’s asking for they can still get a big haul for him in the summer after his 90 point season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have to re-sign him, we have him for one more year. He could be moved in the summer or at next year's TDL or anytime in-between...no gun to our heads on anyone except Motte really.

But for all Rutherford and to a lesser extent Allvin’s talk about needing a retool it’s pretty underwhelming. People have been complaining about losing players for nothing (UFAs) it’s kind frustrating to not see something from the new management team that was brought in to ‘FIX’ Benning’s mess...

ABNuck Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Not sure if mentioned, but wasn't Sutter back to skating last week? Maybe he won't be back at all this year so we just filled his PK slot with a solid option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luongianone Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 11 minutes ago, Podz92 said: If all Rutherford and Allvin do is substitute Dermott for Hamonic and add Richardson on waivers then this will be a Benning level trade deadline....are they over valuing the players and asking for too much?? If they keep Motte then I think they have an L of a deadline. Otherwise there's really no rush to make any other move. Miller, Garland both have term on their contracts. Brock's value is at an all time low and sounds like there's mutual interest to sign him below his QO. Plus you can still trade RFA's with relative ease in the offseason. We should expect Motte to be moved. If not he's being signed and if that's anything over 2 mill then I would hand the management their first L of the year.

Yup just like Laffs signed Tavares and could not build around him. Would you consider Toronto a good team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The retool was always likely to happen in the summer. Trading Motte for a draft pick does nothing for a retool. The moves that need to be done (Boeser, Myers, Pearson, Dickinson) were always much more likely to happen in the summer. That’s when you have more teams that are likely to trade for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever seen a truck after it's been in a train wreck...it takes a while to fix, and as I mentioned above there's absolutely no gun to our head. We have a few players on really nice contracts right now, contracts that other teams would like...so why not us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope they don’t run out of time and wind up having to qualify Boeser at 7.5... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it or not they don’t make moves just to make you happy. I was being sarcastic... But imagine they did absolutely nothing this morning.. What kind of message is being sent to the fans?? Anyhow I'm very disappointed that we are not getting any prospects and picks today barring last minute surprises in next 15+ mins!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4ZZY Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 I think Richardson and Dermott are the trades and acquisitions this team is making this deadline. 20 min to go before the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The message being sent is that they’re not gonna rush franchise defining moves that can be made in the summer for fans that got up early to watch deadline day and are cranky now.

Well, they didn’t do nothing. They acquired Dermott the other day, and they picked up Richardson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
