hockeyfan-observer Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Reasonable trade for two forwards probably unhappy with their development at their respective teams - will take a few years before we can see who wins the trade - hopefully PA is careful and this does not become another Jared McCann situation. Not sure why they traded for a forward though when their problem is the D - perhaps this trade indicates the Canucks are planning to trade some forwards before next Friday, Guess we will find out soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can Miller and Tocchet get him to play with more of an edge? People hate on Boeser, but ever since Miller got here I have seen him forecheck harder, and it has led to goals for. Yeah he is not a puck hound. But he does play harder than people give him credit for. If Miller can get Kravtsov to buy in a bit more on forechecks, board battles. That's a kid with elite puck skills and a good shot that now plays harder. That we trade for a smallish forward that doesn't have a third of the skill Kravtsov has and a 7th rounder that is doing Fortnite dances right now cause that pick is so far away. We didn't give up much for a guy that has quite a bit of potential. We essentially traded a dime and a nickel for three quarters that can turn into a 5 dollar bill. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry Goose Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 So it sounds like player development was one of VK’s concerns w NYR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t really like his edge work on his skating at all either. Oh well, let’s see what happens. Gonna go out on a limb here and say not a Tocc type player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seems to be an out of the ordinary awareness between Dan and his crew. He keeps finding them good opportunities and seems to know how to motivate them. Milstein is our man rn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really surprised we haven't been able to bring in one impact dman by now. I wonder how much of it is because gms know we are screwed and have nothing on the farm and know they can wait Allvin out to get more of what they want. These trade chips weren't going to net a dman of not in return so it is a moot point. Other trades and moves are clearly going to be made Allvin and Rutherford obviously know what all needs work and it's not going to be a quick fix either. Not sure why this needs to be beat into your head after every trade. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKSR Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Next season: Kuzmenko-Petey-Beauvillier Garland-Miller-Kravtsov Podkolzin-3C-Mikheyev Joshua-Raty-Lazar Would be interesting to see if Beauvillier could find success with Miller. That way Kravtsov could find some confidence having Petey and Kuz feeding him chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t take responsibility from the player either. Some just don’t possess the inner fire. Do get some Juolevi vibes with ol’ Vitali here. Hope I dead wrong on this.

Why the need for so many wingers? There must be players going out before the deadline. It's almost like... There's a plan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
