BREAKING: Reilly Smith back to Vegas for San Jose’s third rounder this year and Brendan Brisson (to Hartford). - Larry Brooks
Edit: 50% retained as well



Prices falling back down to earth? (though it will be the 1st or 2nd pick in the 3rd round)

 

[sting101]

i would be dangling Hronek

That is full on Pejorative Slured.

I mean that in the most respectful way possible.

Eww no. #1 RHD don't grow on trees.

Bargain price for a decent veteran scoring forward with a lot of playoff experience. Of course Vegas ends up not paying premiums, because Vegas…ugh.

I’ll dangle your Hroneks

Smith sucks.

 

[Canucker]

Eww no. #1 RHD don't grow on trees.

Thats exactly why I'd be in favor of dangling him...some people think he's a #1 RHD, I think he's a middle pairing RHD....but if we can get top pairing value for him, I'm at least entertaining the calls.

 

[ephmrl]

Might as well dangle Hughes then

 

[Nucky]

People realize Smith is 34 and has fallen off right?

 

[Bojack Horvatman]

Would love Tuch. Even if he messes up we can all post Fool of a Tuch memes in the GDT

Eh—he’s looked fairly cooked for two years now?

I thought Vegas may have been a Boeser 50% suitor though. Pretty sure they don’t have the cap for that now.

I just KNOW they will somehow get Rantanen and then get him signed to some bs capfriendly deal.

 

[Szechwan]

Yeah I personally wouldn't touch Smith with a 10ft pole. Guy is washed

 

[Vector]

Team is starved for offense and wants to convince Hughes to stay

Shop Garland??!?

Not what was said at all. Specifically said the opposite. The Canucks aren’t shopping him but teams are calling on him and other players.

 

[Nuckles]

Nashville claimed Jordan Oesterle and Jakub Vrana.

Columbus claimed Christian Fischer.

Full list added to waivers: Ryan Reaves (TOR), Riley Stillman (CAR), Evan Cormier (FLA), Cameron Hebig (UTA), Tyler Pitlick (BOS).

Jesse Puljujarvi cleared.

 

[Vector]

You’d be such a shitty GM.

 

[dez]

Dont like the idea of trading a heart and soul guy like Garland especially if it's for signing Boeser.

 

[wonton15]

Reaves on waivers. Making room for Brandon Tanev?

 

[kanucks25]

Smith has been fine in New York this season.

A 3rd for a 3rd liner they are familiar with is a great deal for Vegas, especially considering other teams are paying 1sts and 2nds+ for 3rd liners

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Reaves on waivers. Making room for Brandon Tanev?

100% my guess.

 

[Jovofan]

Trading Garland would be a dumb move, which means he'll 100% be gone tomorrow.

 

[Nucky]

Not what was said at all. Specifically said the opposite. The Canucks aren’t shopping him but teams are calling on him and other players.

Not commenting on the report, commenting on fans who want it to happen. Good luck getting back a return that will help this team more than Garland does. 5'7 wingers don't usually bring back fair value

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

So I am not a big fan of Reaves but did not realize he was pretty close to 1000 (912 games). I hope he gets it that would be pretty cool.

 

[krutovsdonut]

the only way garland goes is if he has asked to go. if he goes i don't think we see tochett back.
