Confirmed Trade: [CHI/VAN] Ilya Mikheyev (15% retained), Sam Lafferty, 2027 2nd round pick for 2027 4th round pick

[NeverForget06]

good trade by the Canucks - I hope they use it to sign Zadorov - 6 years please

 

[Buresflyingelbow]

Fantastic move by Vancouver.

 

[sepHF]

If I’m Van I use the savings to bring back Zadorov and find a cheaper winger than Guenztel for Pete

 

[Clint Eastwood]

While fun, Jake and ep40 need to play together

I feel like the best teams have pairs.

Guentzel - Pettersson - X
x - Miller - Boeser

Fill in the x with whoever blends well and you got a dope top six.

This is where someone like Lekkerimaki is a huge wildcard on an ELC.

Guentzel - Pettersson - Toffoli
Lekkerimaki - Miller - Boeser

That would be lethal. Pipe dream at this point.

Much needed cap for us, I’ve never seen a worse finisher than Mikh.

If this is literally anyone else, it's a goal and the Canucks likely win the series.

Always had a hunch that Mik must be on a pretty hefty dose of an SSRI/SNRI.

He finished once in 61 games.

please tell me what you think a “realistic” overpayment for jake and zado is? Cheers

Zadorov is a bottom pair guy. Anything over 4 atrocious.

Guentzel... Somebody is going to overpay him. He's a good sniper but needs a driver. That sure as hell isn't Petey

The overpayment is worth it if somebody can dish him properly. Kinda like McDavid hyman

22m in cap space now. They can afford whoever they want

My dream is Reinhart but I know he'll stay in Florida

 

[La Bamba]

solid for the canucks. paying basically nothing to get rid of the most useless forward i've seen

Zadorov was f***ing massive in the playoffs. Everyone plays an inch taller when he's on the ice.

second most useless forward you've ever seen

don't forget you had to watch virtanen in pre-season once

 

[Bounces R Way]

Doesn't seem too bad for Van. Not that great either considering they signed this dude like yesterday but they didn't get gouged here.

I know this board thinks Mikheyev is trash and isn't worth the skates he occupies but I still like him. Just not in any top 6. 3rd line utility only.

Waiting on that red confirmed link

Waiting on that red confirmed link

Don’t think you have to worry

I really think if Vancouver makes Guentzel an offer near $10 million a year, they will absolutely hate that deal in a year or two.

I don’t see Guentzel aging well.

I'm just looking at him as a whole. I wouldn't mind him but he's asking too much

I don't see why he wouldn't. But I don't think he'll age 10 mill per year well.

Wow its 2027 2nd rounder lol

 

[FoxYou727]

They are retaining??? At least it is a 2027 2nd I guess

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

I don't see why he wouldn't. But I don't think he'll age 10 mill per year well.

Guess I could have worded it better and said “I don’t see him aging THAT ($10 million a year) well”
