Speculation: Canucks Trade incoming?

[Blackhawkswincup]

To
D Connor Murphy retained at 25% ($3.3M cap hit thru next season)

To
LW Nils Hoglander ($3M cap hit thru 2027-28 season)
Canucks 2025 1st round pick

- Canucks get top 4 RD they have looked and Murphy is signed thru next season and with Hawks retaining 25% it is down to just $3.3M cap hit. They also move on from Hoglander who's contract extension looks like a mistake and appears to be on outs with Nucks coach

- Hawks get a 3rd 1st rounder for this coming draft (Hawks + Leafs are the other two) and take on Hoglander as reclamation project and who even with his struggles this year should be better than the likes of Pat Maroon, Joey Anderson, etc currently on Hawks roster

I wouldn’t move the Canucks’ 1st at this point for Murphy.

I imagine we'll be offloading Rasmus.. Another Canucks/Flames trade? He's going to go for a kings ransom though.

In what world is Murphy worth anything close to that package? Sorry not trying to be rude but I’ve watched him play and he is not a game changer, breaker or anything that would cost close to that package.

Something a lot closer to the Zadorov package would be appropriate.

3rd and maybe a 5th.

 

[DJJones]

Rasmus, retained 50%

1st & Wallinder, maybe with a throw in prospect/roster player as well

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Rasmus, retained 50%

1st, 2nd, & Wallinder

Willander isn't getting traded.

Rasmus is to expensive for the Nucks. Not happening.
