Rumor: Canucks Interested in Zacha

[LuLover96]

From Jeff Marek during the intermission of the Leafs vs. Canucks game.

1 year left on a 2.25 million dollar contract, impending RFA with one year to UFA status. 22 points in 45 games and questions if he’ll be pushed out with Hughes, Hischier and Mercer (according to Marek).

But why?

 

[Gstank]

Would Prefer Mcleod but with a potential Miller trade Zacha makes sense

 

[Ginger Papa]

I just watched it as well and as a Canucks fan my first thought was:

Perhaps Rachel sees something that I do not though?

Garland for zacha?

 

[Gstank]

Garland for zacha?

My guess would be more along the lines of Boeser for Zacha

 

[StickShift]

I have a suspicion that the Canucks think they have too many small wingers. They may want to size-up on Garland or Höglander.

Have I missed something? Zacha is good depth, but Miller/Boeser/Garland being in the discussion? That's unread sarcasm on my part, right?

Obviously would be a bigger deal then just Zacha, kind of like how Kratsov would be apart of a bigger deal

I'd want a hockey trade of some kind. The Devils will definitely not give up what Canucks fans would want according to previous threads, and justifiably so from a lot of the New Jersey fan base.

Trading Garland for Zacha is Jim Benning 2.0


If Vancouver does that their management is starting their tenure with taking 5 steps backwards.

Smart on the Canucks part. They should go in big on an offer to make sure they can roy him out of NJ.

Boeser + Poolman

Zacha + McLeod

 

[Gstank]

Boeser + Poolman

Zacha + McLeod

I would do this. Whats the book on Zacha exactly?

 

[JTmillerForA1stLOL]

With the 400 recent front office hires within this organization you'd have to think common sense should ultimately prevail.

This doesn't make sense.

 

[StickShift]

Devil’s advocate… turning around depreciated assets is the way that teams often end up winning trades.

IS Boeser go fir zacha cap space too though.

That's ridiculous, come on.

Fitz would NEVER do this. Terrible.

I mean I'll admit that wasn't the first problem that came to my minds as something we'd have to overcome.

Seriously? Boeser is a top 6 RW still on an RFA contract. Definitely an upgrade over Zacha and fills a team need for top 6 RW.

Severson makes more mistakes than good plays. He’s been whining about being on a losing team for the past 5 years while being part of the problem the whole time. He’s not going to re-sign.

If Vancouver needs to add a 3rd or something to even it out fine but the value is not as far off as you reacted.

As a Devils fan…. No way in hell that happens as much as I would want it to. It would have to be Zacha plus ? Something crazy.

 

[Eggtimer]

Boeser + Poolman

Zacha + McLeod

What? Deal , no returnsy’s . No way the Canucks do that. I wish. Players I can see the Devils like - Boeser Rathbone Miller Hughes. All are either untouchable or Zacha is not even remotely close to enough value. Maybe Zacha plus a 1st or another asset like Ty Smith
