Canucks Trade Deadline Plan with Poll

[theguardianII]

That time of year again.
Loads of cap space.
Two or three serious team issues that need addressing.
GM's get players a coach wants, is Tocchet the next coach, still unsigned and he has the option to sign, it is his decision too and he hasn't.
That affects the players the team might want.

Should they use this year and the TDL to rip off the bandage and start the healing/building process for the next year.

Boeser, Demko, Pettersson, Suter, Soucy, Hoglander, Joshua, Blueger,

Boeser, Demko, Pettersson, Suter, Soucy, Hoglander, Joshua, Blueger,

It's going to be a 'sellers market' for just about every position on the ice, but particularly for depth defenders and scoring wingers. And the Canucks have a few of both.

Boeser should fetch a decent return; and depth defenders like Soucy and Forbort will probably attract some interest.

If the Canucks want to drill down deeper at the TDL, there might be some takers for Suter, Blueger, Hoglander or even Joshua. Although I think they intend to keep both Hoglander and Joshua.

And I see Canucks Army has come up with six potential trade destinations for Thatcher Demko, now that Lankinen has signed a long-term extension. So that will be something to watch.

Finally EP40. Highly unlikely you could ever trade an $11.7m, long-term contract at the trade deadline. That's more likely an off-season move. Although you never know.

Apparently the Canes have determined that Rantanen isn't going to sign there before July 1st, so they may try to flip his big contract in the next couple of weeks.

I pray they can get it done prior to his NMC kicking in. Maybe a trip to Winnipeg, they will want a long term potential star player and contract. Take back futures, maybe 1rst rnd picks for 2026 and 2027 plus a prospect and an older player(?) They will have cap space. Florida might come calling now that Tkachuk is out.

all of the above tbh

The wild card is Brock B. We need to decide. do we let him walk for nothing or do we get assets for him

Man if the Canes can't resign Rantanen that's going to be a huge loss for them and I though on trade day that the Avs had won that trade already.

strip it all down except hughes. and the guys that resigned longterm. stock up in the offseason and come back next year with hopefully a better top 6 guys who can put the puck in the net. let tocheet go. find another coach.

I am pretty sure the team is mostly support type players (3rd & 4th liners) already so moving a total of 29 goals (BB & EP) off the roster and replacing them with 25 goals (Lekkerimaki and Karlsson) and while saving over 17 million. shouldn't be hard.

FYI, if the Canucks had 10 points or 5 wins less they would be in 28th in the league. Or 10 fewer OTL's

Suter-x-Boeser
Joshua-Chytil-Garland
O'Connor-Blueger-Sherwood
spares - INCLUDE Lekkerimaki

Hughes-x
Pettersson-Hronek
Pettersson-Myers

I like this team heading into the playoffs, but some guys I'd like to see for the x roles: ROR, McLeod, Dach, Gourde, Lindgren, A Carrier, Mayfield, Helleson, Carlo, Jokiharju...

Exciting times ahead.

I like your optimism. But if they can't get Hughes back at 100 percent, the only place they'll be heading in April is to the golf course.

If the season ended today, they'd all be heading home instead of to the Cup playoffs.

 

[Hoglander]

Trade expiring contracts that won't be re-signing. Only aquire mid-to- longterm pieces in their 20's

Agreed. But if you always look for the worst case Ontario, you'll find that sucker. Let life disappoint you, not some hockey team. People change every day, players not so much. If you top out at a PPG in the CHL/College, that's probably your top gear in the NHL. But it depends on the person. Can people change? Yeah, but only if they want to. Sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse.

Would be surprised if they paid a premium asset to a RD since wallinder is coming (mid to late round pick or a soucy type sure).

That lineup also shows if Petey can get somewhat on track offensively then you’re one addition and one surprise away from feeling pretty decent about the forward group.

I knew I was forgetting one guy. Yeah, like I think at this point (being it our lowest) we are 1 more correct move away from something special.

Classic Vancouver, great hockey team, great Western Conference. But I think we have the most correct group of guys. Just need that last guy. As I said before we made the trade for Chytil, I think he could be that player one day but not this year.

Since Chytil got here, but you notice the extra spring in Hronek's step?

Honestly I'd think about a Hertl for Boeser and Chytil kind of deal. But Vegas got to the punch first.

 

[Killer Orcas]

Sell the fat and trade for a young controllable player or two. I'm good with trading Boeser and Demko if we can get something that helps us next season.

 

[kanucks25]

Like the endless ramblings in most of your posts, you really need to consolidate those poll options.

Most of them are blending into each other, you only need 3 or 4.

 

[PuckMunchkin]

Hot take;

I think EP40 is getting traded.

What we get back is what determines the rest.
