Other than that, good to get DiPietro a home after we all but ruined his career here. As well, let's hope Myrenberg isn't Forsling all over again - would be the funniest thing if the team, that can't/refuses to draft good defencemen as it is, manages to give up yet another solid defenceman. It won't. Forsling was on the cusp of the NHL when JB stupidly traded him. Myenberg ain't even close to the nhl or in the same class as Forsling. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post StanleyCupOneDay Posted October 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2022 (edited) Few things I want to say: Those people hoping for a rebuild are going to be disappointed. It’s clear by Allvin’s comments on Myrenberg being 5 years away that this team is going all in on winning now. Get used to the retool. I’m conflicted on this deal. Part of me says why in the fuck are Canucks trading away any RHD prospects given that is the single greatest need they’ve had in over a decade. Myrenberg may not end up as anything special, he may never play the NHL, but to give away any guy with a shot of being a RHD we’ve desperately needed for a guy that we can trade a plethora of wingers/forward prospects for instead is head scratching to say the least. It’s been impossible for us to find one at a reasonable cost in a trade, so giving up a potential home grown one, which is basically our only option is worrisome. On the other hand if you look at it from the perspective Myrenberg will amount to nothing (a high likelihood) then you can basically say we traded a 5th round pick for a PK’ing 3/4C with some upside potential. That would be a trade everyone here would be screaming about how “we took them to the cleaners”. Especially so because we’ve needed a new PK defensive centre forward to take on the oppositions best players ever since Beagle left. Studnicka is still young enough to have some potential to be a valuable NHL player, he fits an organizational need and we basically gave up a 5th rounder to get him, or what I’d like to call a steal. Like I said, I’m conflicted. Regardless I hope, just like with every player that becomes a Canuck that Studnicka surprises and becomes an integral, indispensable part of our team. I also wish DiPietro well on his new team, it was a good thing for management to find him a new home.

Diamonds Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Sucks to lose Myrenburg. He's one of our long shots I was actually excited about. Hopefully Studnicka does well here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He and his agent have asked for a trade and publicly said they were not happy. Right now the Canucks are a tire fire. This is simply getting rid of a minor problem and distraction. Nothing more. The return is irrelevant. Could have been a roll of tape. Move on. Absurd. We traded away a decent right hand D prospect. We had better be getting a good return. But I am not optimistic. Looks like a Benning deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myrenburg is a lower tier prospect. Unless he becomes another Gustsv Forsling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I just look at it as: We don't draft D as it is, much less RHD. Probably should at least see what we have before shipping them off? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theo5789 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Feels kind of like the Linden Vey trade. At least we didn't give up a 2nd for him. Although based on the opinions of Myrenberg, you'd think he was one. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s about tempering the emotions from fans like you who think that our team lost the ‘next best thing’. We didn’t. The team needed to fill Lazar’s spot. They did that with a decent 4th line Center. What’s the real issue? The team is losing. I get it. We’re all upset about it. But, the team needs to shore up homes due to injuries. That’s what they did. What’s the issue?? Why did they “need” to fill Lazar’s spot? We have players in the system and on the roster to cover injuries. Your premise is just flawed so don’t get all preachy Aman has been one of the brighter lights on the roster and Dries has more NHL experience and success than Strudnicka has. Strudnicka has only played a few games in the league and is so far a career AHLer, not a “decent” 4th line centre . We aren’t in a competitive spot to be giving away prospects for players who you can find on the waiver wire. 3 1 4 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidgoliath Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 19 minutes ago, Sharpshooter said: I get it. He’s a prospect. He’s not the next Edler, Karlsson or Lidstrom Do you really believe the team traded away a game-breaking top tier talent? If he was as good as Bains, then give your head a shake. Neither are going to make this squad or the League. I feel like I’m talking to the individual bricks in the wall. We totally overvalue our team’s prospects way too much. Lidstrom was the 11th pick in the 3rd round. Let’s wait and see how Myrenberg turns out. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakrami Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 (edited) I actually think this is a decent trade. Could hopefully step into 3rd/4th line in a couple of years. but of course... i know nothing about Myrenberg.

If you’ve been following the team like you say you have and follow Myrenburg, then you ought to know that while he’s a solid young dman, he’s not the solution to this team’s woes now or at least in the next 3-5 years. Stop your whining about the trade. The team needed to fix an obvious hole and they did it. It cost something. Things cost things. The team's obvious hole was defense. Did they fix it? You're just making excuses to justify this trade lol. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even remotely… he is just 19. That is a mens league, not many teenagers in it. The season just started, a young guy getting big reps in a lower league rather than low minutes in a higher league is pretty normal for development. He probably shuffles between the two leagues this season. He was dominant in the J20 (Their major junior equivalent) last year against guys older than him. If the draft happens again, he is easily a 3rd round pick with his trajectory. Edited October 28, 2022 by Provost 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team isn't good enough, I'll be surprised if they figure out how to fix that sooner than later. They can try and retool all they like but it'll probably fail like the other retool attempts have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EP Phone Home Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Please explain to me why did we trade one of the ONLY RD prospects?! Seriously what the dusty puck is going on? We should be coveting these not trading them. My god somebody make sense of this. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
