Grub's Canucks & NHL News, Rumours, and & Fantasy GM | Training Camp Begins

[StreetHawk]

I know that Canucks fans are pinning their hopes on getting another impact d-man at the trade deadline, like they did with Zadorov last season.

But it'll hardly be easy, and the Canucks will have to give up a king's ransom to leverage somebody with top-four potential. I suppose a team like Montreal, Columbus or Anaheim has a couple of veteran guys, but they won't come cheap.

And while teams like Vegas, Carolina and Colorado also have some surplus guys, they're hardly going to give up a guy like Shea Theodore in the heat of a playoff race.

I almost think the Canucks are in a situation where they're going to have to tough it out on the blueline. I'd hate to see them cough up yet another first rounder and a couple more draft picks for guys like Lindholm and Zadorov who both 'walked' in the off-season.

Mon has Matheson and Savard with Savard as a ufa. With all of the kids coming up for them they likely need to keep Matheson.

Anaheim is Fowler and gudas and Dum. Fowler don’t see him waiving for Canada. Dum not the same guy from his Pitt days. Gudas?

CbJ is Provorov. Not moving Werenski who has term.

Matheson (1 x $4.875M)
Sanheim (6 x $6.25M)
Gavrikov (UFA x $5.875M)
Pettersson (UFA x $4.025M)
Provorov (UFA x $6.75M)
Weegar (6 x $6.25M)
Fehervary (1 x $2.675M)
Chychrun (UFA x $4.6M)
Byram (RFA x $3.85M
Middleton ($2.45M, 4 x $4.35M)
Theodore (UFA x $5.25M)
Power (4 x $8.35M)
Lindgren (UFA x $4.5M)
Samuelsson (1 x ($4.29M)
K. Miller (RFA x $3.87M
Hague (RFA x $2.294M)
Romanov (RFA x $2.5M)
Sieganthaler (3 x $3.4M)
Dunn (3 x $7.35M)
Maata (UFA x $3.0M)
Zamula (1 x $1.7M)
Orlov (UFA x $7.75M)

Pretty much all of the most attractive and potentially attainable LHD/LD’s. Ranges from #2-4/5 in terms of quality. I listed Theodore just because….and I know he’s a RD.

So pick your poison!

If we're moving Willander in a deal I would absolutely want Weegar or an extended Theodore back.

In a more picks and B prospects I like Marcus Pettersson who should definitely be available as the Penguins will likely struggle. Gavrikov and Siegenthaler also interesting.
