KKnight Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 If we are looking to add physicality/grit to the lineup, these are players I would target in order of preference. This all depends on contract value of course. Short term deals as well. 1. Miles Wood 2. Carson Soucy 3. Radko Gudas 4 Milan Lucic My main targets for this offseason would be: 1.Offloading salary 2. Obtaining picks 3. Ross Colton 4. Carson Soucy 5. Gritty winger that can play Penalty Kill or role player that is feared (Lucic) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen Erased Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Let’s get Cal Clutterbuck instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 2 hours ago, -Vintage Canuck- said: That's the point. Why would the Canucks consider him or why would Lucic consider coming to Vancouver given the history? It doesn't make sense from either side. There is no mutual fit. Milan is an East Van kid and he'd love to play for his hometown team as he said today. He has said this multiple times. We need a tough guy in the worst way possible since the departure of Luke Schenn. I'm certain that Rick Tocchet would love to get Milan Lucic on his team for one year and to have an example of what hard-to-play-against really means. The fit is there.

Rick_theRyper Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I have the most open mind to all of things. Rooted for Jake till the end. But all things to come to end also. The most I'd give Lucic is a PTO and if he makes a good enough point to keep a 1x1 deal in the end sure. But he's gotta brake some skulls for it. Hit. Stick up for guys. If we had him and schenn out there it could help. I always root for guys to succeed but this is a long shot. PTO or no thanks. Zero commitment.

Odd. Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 (edited) I wouldn’t mind Miles Wood as an alternative. For defense, Ryan Graves is a legitimate top 4 defenseman and could be the perfect partner for Hronek. If Jett Woo plays like he did this past season, I can easily see him grabbing that 6th spot on right D and he would essentially fill that tough guy shutdown role. IMO, Woo makes the team next year considering he’s waiver eligible. I can honestly see a Hughes/Woo pairing. Hughes/Woo Graves/Hronek Even without Woo this is a legitimate top 4 defense. Woo has that Bieksa style of rugged in your face presence that I think the team desperately needs. Edited May 31, 2023 by Odd. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 There are fighters around who can skate faster. If we want to reserve a roster spot for a tough guy who is going to play 6-8 minutes a night, we can do better. At least find a 3rd pairing D who can chuck em if need be, at least they are actually on the ice for a reasonable period of time to respond to issues. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolboarder Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I would take a hard pass, but wouldn't mind signing him at the minimum and if he doesn't perform, easily waive him and send him to minors without a cap hit attached to our salary cap situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
