I'm thinking it's a safe bet we get him back this offseason. Plus, TML's are still awful in their own end. They'll be golfing after the first round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if we offered him 1-2 years NMC, an A or... the C x 1 year then he comes back the leadership actually looks good now, but yes I would like him back at a decent cap hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHL97OneTimer Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 14 hours ago, Slegr said: I’m still extremely disappointed that Canucks GM made this move for a third from Toronto. I would have just kept Schenn, even if he signed somewhere else in the offseason. He is probably what the Leafs needed most to actually balance out. A Canuck GM’s first priority should always be to help our team first, but a second close priority should be to not help out the Leafs and Flames in any way. We saw Markstrom, Tanev, and Toffoli all let go to help the Flames, even though it wasn’t enough. But shame on Canucks management for helping Toronto. Most Canucks fans despise the Leafs, and this needs to be recognized by those who make trades for this team. You may be missing one thing here.....it's possible Schenn wanted a trade to help the Canucks in the off-season while gaining a playoff season in his late career in a city which he is comfortable in. My guess is that this was a mutual plan with PA working with the team of Luke's pick. When GM's do these kinds of things, players do respect the clubs (and may come back). We'll see in a few months time I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Separate Contract) my 2 bits. It’s time to let the farm have more opportunities like what we’re seeing now.… and Luke would be looking for a sweet spot durring Father Time and still be home for dinner 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s time to let the farm have more opportunities like what we’re seeing now.… and Luke would be looking for a sweet spot durring Father Time and still be home for dinner I agree with letting more of the farm team having a shot. I think players like Wolanin and Brisebois could thrive up here if given enough time. Then there's also prospects like Raty who may very much just be a matter of time. That being said, I still want to see us shore up our defense more without relying on prospects to jump in. The unfortunate thing is that could get expensive, and that's not even considering cap.

Well where we stand right now, I think Wooly Breezer and Juulz are matching up quite well to anything we might be looking for.. I can only imagine with this taste, and a full Summer ahead, how they will be in Camp. Although the absence of Hroneck right now isn’t giving us the full vision , we are better than what we were at the beginning of the season even without Hroneck in the line up. Of course I say this after a shot blowout on Demko last night.. lol. but in other games , we are closer in gap and better in breakouts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a random note, maybe I should start learning more about advanced stats as there's ideas I want to bring up here about defense but don't know for certain and I know that looking at advanced stats could either back me up or prove I'm wrong. That being said, I will say "closer in gap" tells me there's still a gap, which is not what we want at the end of the day. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke is a 7/8 guy on a contending team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Schenn can put up .38 points per game, lead the team in hits, protect his teammates and be a plus player I have no problem at all with him being on the 3rd pair.

But Luke Schenn won’t put up 38 points playing 3D. We are all fans of what he brought the team this season but bottom line it was a terrible season for the Canucks. The team has to build towards a better future and the TOI Luke would take should be invested in younger players who might mature to be members of a Cup contender. That is why I say he should be a 7/8D. We don’t know yet whether Meyers will be gone or not. If he is there could be a bigger role for Schenn. Obviously a lot of uncertainty moving towards fall.

Schenner does not need to bring any offence. If he reverts to 7 point a season Schenn, as long as he is defensively responsible and hits, he's a good 3rd pair guy.

ilduce39 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 (edited) Hronek was the big add on the back end this year and while I think we’ll make one more move, it’s far more likely we find a solid LD than another high profile RD. In other words, Hughes might play with Hronek.. but will likely have to play with someone on the cheap to maximize the Hronek acquisition. That means Schenn on a reasonable contract should be welcomed back with arms wide open. If he gets beat out so what - he’s signed for cheap. There’s zero benefit to penciling in Burrows or Juulsen next season without competition. Let the best man win.

They should be on separate pairings. Like you say, let the best man win the RD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, assuming they have chemistry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
