Jaimito Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) Aatu Ray, R2-D2, don't know much about him. Nux missing a top center without Bo. EP need to step it up next season, esp faceoffs. Beauvillier is a good player. A top 12 pick in a deep draft is good. Operation has just started. Hope the surgery is a successful one.

Moe Knows Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I don't really know the players, but this hardly seemd like the return we would have expected for Bo..is it? Underwhelming is the word that comes to mind! And no RH Dman...should we have expected anything else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep..a proven 18 goal scorer and an elite Finish prospect.. + 1st rounder in an incredible 2023 year.. WHY would LOU pull the trigger? This gives Canucks a huge boost in youth and assets, its the best possible scenario. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naslund.is.king Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Well horvat sounded pissed by the whole situation.."I wanted to be a canuck for life" This is were the true mistake was made. Miller should be gone But this is the canuck way too late..no point in ******** about spilt milk now :/ like the return as I said before but least now things are happening. Management will continue to be public enemy#1 they have a long way to go before fans approve of them. it's a start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaSwede Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 14 minutes ago, Coconuts said: Best center prospect Lekkerimaki is probably our best overall prospect No he isn't. Raty is our best prospect now, without a doubt. Not to be harsh on Lek here, but he's not had a good year at all and if anything he has regressed in his development. Raty is an excellent prospect that has already got some time in the NHL and looks like he will be a player for years to come. Prototypical 2C type of player, smart, fast, excellent shot, defensively reliable, good on draws and he's got size too. He's your 200-foot centerman that has really good projections to be an impact player in the NHL. https://dobberprospects.com/player/aatu-raty/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustard Tiger Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 4 minutes ago, stawns said: I think they're more likely to use it to move up in the draft if they don't get into the top 5 What on earth... Hell no. We should be trying to get ANOTHER first not moving them lmao! Two picks in the top 15?? Yes please. Islanders issue is they are deep at C and really weak on the wing. All boesers. Well this trade doesn't help them outside of the PP. Look who they are chasing... This SHOULD be 12-15 pick. Then they will panic and lowball horvat so we can sign him back in the summer. We all win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannydog Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 35 minutes ago, Eddie said: I actually think this is a pretty dam good trade. I loved Bo at times, but the idea and reality of Bo, as i've said before, were not always the same. If we had signed him for 8M + you can bet he would be back at 20g 60pt next year. Ratu i really wanted in the draft - i followed him really closely that year, and he artificially tanked his standings from consensus first over all to 2nd round pick due to not putting up points but still playing a tight defensive game. I still thought he would go top 15 and was fuming when we missed him in the 2nd. Next season he tore it up and was back to Blue chip status - i haven't really followed his progress in NA as closely but his stats show he is still trending well. Big unit of a C who can play shutdown with some serious offensive upside on his day. I think he can make an impact next year and is cost controlled for 2 more years. 1st is all good. Disappointing we couldn't have got a decent D prospect out of it instead of Beauvillier but we could probably flip him, or he could provide cover for losing Garland + Brock at the TDL. Its not a home run - but I think its one of the better realistic packages i saw floating around. Better than the Boston and Car ones IMO at least We are only 1M better of in the cap next year as a result if we can't flip Beau or some of the other overpaid wingers tho - which limits our ability to rebuild the D. We don't get strong this year - we get A LOT weaker which helps team Tank. Its and change and this team badly needed one - bringing back Bo + the rest of the core would have produced the same results. Its the retool we needed... in hindsight tradiing Miller would have been better - but this years Miller is likely next years Bo if he had stayed, and Maybe JT steps up now Bo has gone - lots of smoke about those two not getting on. Some smoke about others not getting along with Miller also. JT better step up and better yet man up to prove management choose the correct player to retool with. Who will be the temp captain until we get past this years sh!Tahoe and maybe next? Pls don’t make Petee captain during this mess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beni Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Sad to see Bo go, but if there was no money for him to re sign there's no way you can let him walk for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 1 minute ago, *Buzzsaw* said: Yep, that means we are paying the same for Beauvillier in CAP as for Horvat. It means we didn’t gain any cap space for possible moves at the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Why would Bo come back? It's pretty obvious we chose Miller over him. They lowballed him during the summer off the hop. Watch him either extend with the Isles or walk to UFA and go to Carolina or Boston or something. I don't see him coming back. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
