LOL my wife was super sick the weekend we were scheduled to move The movers literally packed boxes around her while she was still in bed and finally I had to roll her off the bed and then they dismantled the bed and moved it as well. She literally did not lift a finger. Poor girl was out cold. They take the dishes out of the cabinet and pack it as welll. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also that makes me think he’s getting traded somewhere close (Seattle, Calgary, Edmonton). You can’t fly when you’re that pregnant so any move would have to be a drive away. He was also talking about them having to book flights, so could be anywhere. I doubt she would fly anytime in the next couple of weeks, but she probably would be flying out afterwards. Remember, Luke is probably going to a contender, so he may be playing hockey until May or even June...

Generally if you have a surplus at one position and a deficiency at another, you use your surplus to fix your deficiency. Cap plays a huge part, league position, compete window etc etc etc There are. But for the most part you keep the better player. IE, if trading from a position of strength, you will try to keep the better player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyGuy123 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Why don’t professional athletes plan to have babies in their offseason? I know sometimes it’s unplanned but having to leave the team during a playoff drive or critical stretch you’d think that they would plan to have it in the 5 months or so they get off a year. Kind of baffling if you ask me, by your third child you know what’s up at that point. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawdzukes Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 2 hours ago, myre said: No there hasn't been. He went further by saying 21. To 23-year-old players who can make an impact, why would those other teams trade those for a second round pick? I feel like he kind of cornered himself and realized that model has been tried here and it failed miserably so the goal post moved a little bit but it's still doesn't add up. Most all successful teams draft lots and don't move draft picks when coming off of terrible seasons. Not to mention in this climate it is super hard to make trades of any type so teams that are not on top should be taking advantage of what little avenues are available like trading UFA's for draft picks. Not throwing them away for half ass reclamation projects to replace players we already have in spades. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like if you throw on the PlayStation it gives you a false hope that you can solve all the Canucks problems really simply haha. I know that's what I do some days lol.

DeNiro Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Seems like there’s a lot of teams trying to get in on everything. Gonna be at least a few teams scrambling to get something done come deadline day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC_Hawk Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 2 hours ago, myre said: I would be more than happy to get a second round pick for Luke and as for the bolded part. I just don't see that happening. Why wouldn't the team trading just trade a expiring cap dump to a different team for like a fourth or fifth round pick? Like you said it would be an expiring contract with weeks left in the season. I can't see why they would give up a first and not find a bottom feeder and throw them a fourth or fifth round pick Because I THINK Schenn has more value THIS TDL then a late 2nd, and the cap space would then enable the team to make another move; add a scoring fwd to an already stacked team? Not saying it will happen, but I wouldn't be all that surprised. A couple things to consider; the 1st would be WAY late and Schenn is the absolute perfect 6/7 dman for a playoff run.

Nucker 67 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Thinking TOR must be freaking out these days, their window closing fast. Matthews could be gone after next season, unless they convince him to stay for $15 million a season Without a really solid D core, they're going to struggle to beat teams like TB and BOS. The Leafs are desperate. JR could really make them overpay for Schenn's services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last Canucks GM that I can remember who routinely got the better in trades was Quinn. Burke tried, but other than the Sedin magic he pulled off at the draft, I don't think other GM's liked Burke enough to give him the time of day. The rest of the GM's in this organization.....meh. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She knows they broke some stuff in the process so she will not let me get to it (for liability reasons), but that also also gave me the opportunity to buy some new CCM AS-V skates and pro stock Warrior gear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let him make the move in peace right now, then when he and his wife are ready, announce it and answer questions and all of that at that time. Yes. That's 100% what I thinks going down right now.
