(Proposal) get rid of dead weight


Recommended Posts

The only thing huge about Myers is his contract. Let’s get rid of him for a second round pic plus some. He’s a big waste of money. 6 million for a guy who doesn’t do much. 
Get rid of Brock. I haven’t heard him say he wants to be here, I have only heard he wants to leave. He could have shut up the media by saying he wants to stay like demko. We picked him up for a 1st and he was nothing now he is a 20+ goal scorer.  Brock for 1 st, plus a+ prospect. If you don’t get that keep him. If we trade him make sure it is to a worse team then us so he won’t ever ask for a trade again.

 

Get Rid of dries, he shouldn’t be on the 3rd line we need someone better. Dries for 6th rounder

When they come back get rid of poolman and Pearson in offseason since they are hurt. If we can get rid of them at tdl let’s do it. Pearson for 5th poolman for 7th 

Trade Luke shenn and resign him if available in offseason. Luke plus 3rd for 1st or cal foot come home to daddy

 

I think that is a good enough retool

Not easy to “get rid” of some guys. OEL, Myers, Boeser, Garland, Pearson, Poolman all (IMHAO) have negative value. So we either buy them out, like we will do this summer with OEL, or we retain big dollars, like we will do with Brock, or we wait until they can be moved as an expiring contract a5 a TDL, like we will do with Myers in 2024. Dries, I don’t think, has any value. Garland seems to be playing bette4 under Tocchet.

Canucks would get a 2nd, (2) 1st, and an A prospect for their 'dead weights'.

 

If those trades were viable, they would have been wrapped up some time ago.

One mans garbage is another man's treasure.  That and timing is everything.  Right now, until the deadline,  teams are scouring for parts to make a cup run. Other opportunities will present themselves like draft day. We just need to be patient.

Just because we are Vancouver doesn’t mean we should give everyone away for nothing or keep salary on them. If that’s the case we need a new coach who showcases the players properly. But if boeser was going to be traded don’t u think he would at least be on pp1 instead of pp2. 
If you want the player to get more points play them on first line and pp1 only makes sense.

I’m thinking other teams’ pro scouts aren’t so easily tricked. They scout the whole league and know exactly what Brock is as a player. It’s where Benning had a problem. He too often (IMHAO) overruled, or ignored, his scouts and did what he believed best. Hence so many bad trades and poor higher picks.
