EddieVedder Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Just now, Elias Pettersson said: Hard pass. Pesce is turning 30 this year and is already showing signs of regressing. Also, we don't have the cap space to sign another Dman to a $6 million+ long term contract. We need that money for Hronek next year. Plus, we already drafted the future partner for Hughes. I prefer we go after a short-term target to play with Hughes until Willander is ready. I'd be fine with Luke Schenn for 2 years. With Hronek in the lineup, he could also play minutes with Hughes, so Schenn doesn't have to play 20 minutes a night with us. yea, pesce here makes little sense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks need more physicality on the back end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KKnight Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Pesce could go for a Gavrikov type contract and try and get paid when the Cap increases big. At that point we have Willander as his successor. I would be surprised if we got Pesce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HorvatToBaertschi Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Due diligence from management here. If Pesce can be had for a good price, it’s worth it. No harm in poking around. I’m glad it seems like their targets are similar to what we’ve been clamoring for here on this forum for years. I trust them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kloubek Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Pesce is the kind of guy I don't mind Allvin paying for. Hughes with Pesce would be instant gold. I wouldn't be looking forward the cap hit on his extension. As mentioned, it'd be nice if that was done in advance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, with drafting Willander, sign Schenn for 2 years and Graves for 4/5 years would be ideal. Following defense wouldn’t be all that bad for 23/24: Hughes-Schenn Graves-Hronek Hiriose/Bris/Burroughs/etc-Myers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's like a bigger, more physical Tanev, with a bit more offense. Other than having some miles on him he's pretty bang on IMO.

BlakeQuinnAndEggs Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I seen a mock trade on Facebook last week and it was Pesce for Hoglander Boeser and a pick and so many people are clueless and have no idea what this team needs lol. Brett Pesce would be a dream come true for this d core. It would be funny if this came true. Or is Pagnotta surfing social media and making up rumors.

timberz21 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 1 hour ago, Citizen Erased said: Well, Chris Higgins did, though they were a contender then. Not saying no New Yorker will ever sign with us. But context is key. Higgins was a middle six two way guy and was traded to us at the trade deadline iirc. And like you said we were contenders. Pesce is one year away from UFA and most likely sign 7/8 year deal that will be the last of his career. He will be sought after in a grim defenseman market.

Warhippy Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 1 hour ago, Nicklas Bo Hunter said: Not really sure what we could offer tbh. 1st is automatic. Likely could use a cheaper scoring winger so beauviller would be in the deal. Maybe beauviller + raty + 2024 1st But we would have to be sure that we were contending. Sweet, giving up futures to keep fighting for just below the middle. It's worked for the last 12 years why not try it again 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
