What could the Canucks get for the 15th overall pick + Mynio + ?

Other assets I could see them trading are Garland, Myers (if Willander takes his spot) Demko (if he doesn’t intend to re-sign), and 2nd round picks.

The Canucks aren’t particularly rich in expendable assets as they are desperate to make the playoffs and need to add basically 3 top 6 players.

Ideal targets would be players like Sillinger, Rossi, and Hayton (not saying it makes sense for their respective teams to trade them).

If Florida re-signs Bennett, then I could see Vancouver offering Willander(+?) for Lundell.

I don't think this package is going to get the Canucks what they want. Probably need to be another add in there to get anyone decent ie Lekkermaki.

I think trading Willander would be very short sighted. You move heaven and earth to not have to trade him.
 
Montreal board has the same need and has talked about a pretty wide range of youngish 2Cs. You could consider adding guys like Zacha, Beniers, Bourque, McTavish, McMichael, Lundell, Mercer, Barzal, Pinto, Cirelli, and Roy to your list of targets.

However, just about every player on this list is either not realistically available or not a legitimate/immediate/guaranteed fit at 2C for a competitive team. Removing the "youngish" criteria might help if you're only offering picks/prospects.

In terms of market value, MTL is not remotely short of expendable assets and would probably attempt to outbid the 15OA + Mynio offer by a fair margin. I think there are several other teams that are in a similar position that would do the same. It's a tough summer to be looking for an established top-6 center!

Nothing you offered is getting Rossi! Lundell isn’t getting traded! He’s a big part of a Stanley Cup contender! Offer something serious if you want a 2c
 
You're not getting a youngish 2C for that package. That's basically what Montreal traded for Kirby Dach back in 2022, who was nowhere even close to a 2C at the time of the trade and has continued to not be a 2C since.

Rossi is your best bet to target but he's likely costing more than just this. You're probably going to have to add another late 1st in value on top of this to get Rossi.

I don’t see the bolded being available unless they demand a trade or some of their team’s prospects leapfrog these players. Barzal mostly plays wing so I don’t think he’s the best option.

Yeah that’s fine. I’m open to a young 3C with room to grow like Dach was, which is why I listed Sillinger.

No to the bolded
 
15th and Mynio is a pretty meh package considering what you're after. Demko probably doesn't have any value considering his injury status. Garland does, but it wasn't that long ago his name was mud too.

Young, established 2C's are a tough commodity to trade for. Teams that have them don't frequently want to move them.

You're probably either looking at someone in the 23-25 range that hasn't broken out yet or someone older getting pushed out by an up and comer or a cap squeeze.

Not moving the needle in getting a young 2C

About 12 other teams want someone similar
