The Devs, who would probably be one of the highest bidders so probably so. And so im clear I like Quinn but I think having all 3 is a gimmick we don't need

In terms of Vancouver wanting to get out from under the Benning shaped rock that's crushing their competitive window, a better question would be...
value of Hughes and OEL or,
value of Horvat and Boeser or,
value of Pettersson and Myers
Packages like that.

Dahlin is just a taller less dynamic version of Hughes, so who are you adding in to off set the Pettersson value?
I would pay a substantial amount of money to have him traded to NJ now so we can be spared from all the unite the Hughes brothers threads. It pisses me off until I think that at least there were not internet message boards for "unite the Sutter brothers" threads in the 80s. Then I wonder if some time traveller knew about the internet, went back to the 80s and thought "they aren't ready for it" and went back where he came from and let things take their natural course instead to spare us all. There isn't even a plaque or a statue to honor this hero.

Word salad! One is true allround Physical D. with leadership quality who can quarterback and effective goalscorer the other lightwight offensiv D.
Hughes+Pete for Ras+Olofsson+second is More then fair

Hughes' defensive game is so bad he shouldn't be considered a 1D. He's a very good offensive defenseman with a lousy shot. What's the difference between Tony DeAngelo and Quinn Hughes? Both undersized, lousy defensive game, dynamic offensively, great on the PP. One came into the league with a reputation of being a bonafide 1D, the other has a bad reputation but really, they're the same player. Hughes is closer to DeAngelo or prime shattenkirk or Tyson Barrie than he is Makar or fox.

No quick fixes, no cutting corners and no cheating
Quinn is not a need for the Devils. It would be a poor use of cap space for the Devils moving forward with Luke and Nemec coming into the league in the near future.

Prior to this season, Dahlin and Hughes were tied in effectiveness, if not arguably worse than Hughes.
Buffalo can throw in a 2nd to make it fair.
Dahlin and Thompson for Pettersson and Hughes.

Probably less then people think for a guy who defends like a wet noodle

It would not interest me at all. I like the Devils D moving forward with what is in the org now.
I would not trade Seigs. His contract is too good to trade for a cap team like the Devils.
The Devils need an LD that can actually play D. The Devils need Sevs this year. Nemec should not be rushed to the NHL.
Siegenthaler was a pleasant surprise. Went for a 3rd rnd pick we got in the Hall trade. Was the best shutdown defender we had last yr. Resigned for a discount to stay. Fitz wouldnt move him. Marino is this years version of the same. Severson may get moved but Q Hughes to NJ seems like a tired discussion
If the Canucks ever blew it up, I seriously doubt Quinn is moved unless they're offered a king's ransom. Finding legitimate top 4 Dmen in the NHL is incredibly difficult so finding a top pairing guy who can literally control the play is damn near impossible. Most teams have to draft this type of Dmen because they rarely become available via trade during their prime years.
Even a rebuilding team would value that type of anchor on the backend. Again, only way Vancouver trades Quinn is if it's for a king's ransom or he forces their hand but even then, it's not going to be an easy or quick trade to make.

If this season does go the direction it looks to be headed—I wouldn’t be shocked if Hughes, Pettersson, or Demko ask for trades to contenders soon. Their prime years will be wasted if they stay in Vancouver.
Vancouver does not have the depth, does not have the cap space, does not have the prospects, nor do they have the trade assets to make a competitor around that core—and any rebuild will take longer than what the Canucks have their rights for.
The only option left for things to get better is a proper rebuild around entirely new players. This core is done and the sad reality is that the talent they do have now needs to be monetized for players that haven’t even been drafted yet.

Dahlin plays physical and grit game, he was our best player last season, now he just confirms it. Either way, it's not available.Not sure who you are referring to but it sure isn’t Dahlin

As a huge Dahlin fan, I can't decide which take is worse ...
Dahlin is on a "5-game hot streak".
Dahlin would fetch Quinn + Pettersson.
Ffs, people, gtf off HFB, and watch some games.

You are underrating Pettersson. He seems to be back to form and is one of the few bright spots on this very bad team.

Vancouver does not make sense to trade Hughes, as well as Pettersson. They must build around them.

Both.
The value is there because its 2 good players but to me Dahlin is a player I would never trade.
By the end of this season, Dahlin will be in the discussion with Fox and Makar. You NEVER trade these types of players unless you are forced to.
