BC_Hawk Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 2 minutes ago, Elias Pettersson said: I think he might have played his last game as a Canuck. Trade, LTIR, buyout. Pick one... He hopefully played his last game in 2023; he needs to heal and rest up for 23/24. Once again, what has he been playing through all year? We completely destroyed our D early due to this FO's inaction. OEL and Myers are better players than they have showed since Nov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's probably something he sees that was worth giving Hronek up for a 1st and 2nd round pick. His stats look good but Yzerman, and his history of really good judgment and instincts, wouldn't do this w/o reason and for a team that has no cap problems.

It wasn’t a major lopsided deal against the Nucks. It’s fair value and it was available to address one of the most key needs for this team. A quality RHD. Not arguing that, but that pick would be far more valuable at the draft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesss, play him with hughes so we can finish last in the league next year. Hronek isn't a shut down dman, not even 2 way. He's an offensive dman smh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His name is greater than his abilities. He’s also been languishing on the trade block with a terrible team for what feels like a decade. Can’t be good for his development. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Crossbar Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Excellent start to revamping our D. He's having a great season, topping last season, and ... Hronek's only 25. Really sucks giving up that conditional 1st but Hronek's only going to get better. This accelerates things with immediate quality. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap situation will be different tin 2 years and cap will likely go up + more moves made by then. They don't make this trade unless they think they can.

Ghostsof1915 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 If it makes people feel any better. I just asked how Detroit fans think of the trade. They have mixed emotions about it as well. Because it leaves a hole on the RHD. So a trade no one is happy with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elias Pettersson Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 1 hour ago, Warhippy said: Again. Because I need to reiterate. I don't hate the trade because we definitely need a player like him. I just feel as though the price is really high because of the time of year this trade occurred in. I also believe he is not necessarily the type of defenseman we need because we don't have many truly dependable stay at home crease clearing defenseman. I do not hate it, I just think that the timing of this is one of those we made a deal to make a deal trades. One bite at a time my friend. The big bruising Dmen are on their way. They are cheaper to get than a legit top 4 RHD who can put up 50+ points and run a power play. I mean, how often is a player like Hronek even available? Think about that. Who is the last RHD under 26 years old that puts up 50+ points that was traded? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timråfan Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 1 hour ago, Coconuts said: My initial take is that I'm not thrilled with this move. I hate giving up high picks and now we're out both a 1st and a 2nd. Another management group that talks about wanting to acquire picks who turns around and flips them out, the more things change the more they stay the same. But we'll see where we stand after the deadline, after the draft, and going into next season's camp. But yeah, not thrilled right now as he's not even a defensive specialist and our inability to stop teams from scoring goals is what's really done us in this season. Hopefully there's more coming. The 1st RHD isn’t a stay at home player anyway. Is it some sort of confision what we need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to argue the value disparity either. Just suggesting that a deal was available that may not have been available later and it addressed a need. So all in all, I get the trade, and like that the team pulled the trigger on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 12 minutes ago, Mathew Barzal said: People are looking at his points and not realizing that Hronek does nothing to address the fact that we need defenseman that can play defense more than anything. Hronek is not a strong defender. He’s the kind of guy you add to man your powerplay if you have no offense coming out of the back end like Barrie or Krug. He’s not someone a team who has Quinn fukcing Hughes should be paying a 1st and 2nd for. Absolutely pathetic trade. It also does nothing to address the fact that this is one of the deepest drafts in recent memory and we needed all the draft picks we had....
