We weren’t getting a high draft pick for Motte. I knew that and the majority of people in this boards knew that.

He wasn’t resigning with the team anyways this off season so I’m good with it.
You guys thought you were getting at least a high 2nd rounder, and even wanted Liljegren coming back in a trade...back to reality.

Imagine telling a Nucks fan that Travis Hamonic gets a better return than Tyler Motte

Wait a moment folks—is it possible that Canucks fans overvalued their own player?
Every Canuck fan thought Hamonic had negative value, the Canucks actually got a third round pick without retention-- is it possible that Canucks fans undervalued their own player?

We got a 4th, which is more value than Liljegren so theres that

Majority of Canuck fans wanted a second, figured a third was possible and wanted to keep him if he didn't garner that level of return, though I'm guessing everyone wanted at least something for him rather than overpaying on a contract or watching him walk for nothing.

Almost every comment here is saying a fourth is a steal and a great deal for the Rangers. That means he's valued higher than a fourth by almost everyone posting here.

As for fans over valuing their players, show me one franchise that doesn't do that please.

Who the f*** said that.
A 2nd rounder for Motte? f*** out of here.
I’m not that stupid, Motte wasn’t worth that much.

No we were not, no more high priced bottom 6 players. We got screwed by Bennings bloated ass farts of bottom six signings in the past.
Some of them were good signings tho: Beagle, Sutter, Dickinson, Schaller, Ferland, Roussell, Etc

Did I ever say that? My point is that no one on the Canucks PK did the job well this year.
I said he plays his role well and I wouldn't conclude that because the team is last in PK therefore Motte does not play his role well. It's false logic.
