Lekker has 21 pts in 24 AHL games as a 20 year old. He'll be a 25+ goal scorer in the NHL with 40g potential. Unless we are getting that back, we shouldn't deal him.I'd be hesitant to deal Lekkermaki and those assets unless the top 6 center is 24 or younger.
I'll trade you JBD, Perron, and our 1st for Boeser.
4m with the cap going up isn't going to cost a first.Perron isn’t a rental. 4m cap hit next year. Man he’s got to cost close to a 1st to drop on his own
I have zero interest in moving Perron.4m with the cap going up isn't going to cost a first.
Take out Perron and JBD, add a B prospect.I'll trade you JBD, Perron, and our 1st for Boeser.
Late 1st and decent prospect or later future pick seems reasonable…or something akin to the Granlund deal.
You can compare Boeser to Toffoli in many ways (top six triggermen who play a rather slow style) - but I think Boeser’s top end and rep is at a higher level.
Toffoli also had a proven track record of being a playoff ghost (which he lived up to yet again) while Brock had 7 goals and 12 points in 12 games for Vancouver last year. I think that makes a big difference in how they are viewed. I trust Brock much more as an impact player to be honest.
Isn’t he the only slow forward though ?As much as I like Brock and he's been a loyal Canuck who i think would be very open to staying at a reasonable tag I hope we move off of him and find someone a bit speedier to add to the roster.
Kinda doubt management would have the balls to trade him if we are in the race but who knows?
Wouldn’t mind couple secondsEither a late first or a couple of second rounders

Yeah but I just figured he’ll return to form I mean if not… yikes ?EP isn't exactly a rocket out there this year........
I think it really depends on what the Canucks brass would prioritize in the return. In a vacuum, i think a 1st+ is probably the floor for "value". Anyone dealing for him would clearly be looking to get him signed to an extension right away, so i'm not sure how much that matters. However, i could also see Vancouver wanting to get a young "right now" sort of piece in their early-mid-20s back as part of the deal.
Like for example...i could see New Jersey being interested, and i could see Vancouver coveting someone like say...Mercer as a big piece of the deal. Someone who can backfill the roster and has some upside like that. Rather than a 1st round pick.
If Boeser does go for a pure "futures" deal in a 1st/Prospect...i suspect it'd be like the Horvat trade (or even the Miller deal) where that capital is then pretty much immediately flipped for someone else they want in terms of an actual "right now" player.

Rush LekkerimakiSerious question: Does it matter at all to all those just wanting a couple of picks who plays in the right wing spot this year (or next)?
