Speculation: Roster Building Thread: Part XXXVIII

[DutchShamrock]

What the Canucks would have to do to trade up for Jack...

*Pay wall*

According to this, the Canucks are asking us what #2 is worth if the Devils pass on Hughes. Speculative answer: Not Petterson. But it's a lot. Multiple 1sts, 2nds, a few players, Staal and Smith. Meh.

Not happening but its interesting being the belle of the ball.

The answer should be basically nothing. If the Devils pass on Hughes and we trade down...that would test my fandom.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

If the Devils take Kakko first, you have to get Pettersson from Vancouver

Conversation starts and probably ends there. I’m not giving what would probably amount to 10’s if not 100’s of millions of dollars in revenue to the Canucks over the next 15 years for anything less

It would be like having the Sedins all over again

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

If they really want to reunite the Brothers Hughes, it'll cost Pettersson. Period.



Then again, this is Jeff Gorton so if we do trade #2, it'll be a whole lotta nothing.

 

[Trxjw]

Yeah, they're certainly welcome to inquire, but the cost is EP or they can take a hike.

 

[eco's bones]

Horvat + Boeser + their 1st might do it for me.

 

[RGY]

Rangers trade the first pick they have had in the top 3 in franchise history and i am done as a fan

 

[Bob Richards]

Not gonna lie, I'd be pretty rattled to have our highest pick ever just to trade down.

If Vancouver really lives and dies on sibling stars then make them give you everything and have 'em put the rink up as collateral.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Horvat + Boeser + their 1st might do it for me.

No thanks.

Horvat and Boeser are excellent players but I’m not trading a potential franchise level talent for complimentary pieces. the whole reason we tanked was to get a franchise player, Now we have the opportunity.

Pettersson or GTFO Canucks.

 

[Thirty One]

That proposed package does little for me. I’m completely flaccid.

I mean the crazy thing is they really don't have very enticing pieces to give up. #10 is decent. Boeser is a really talented player but seems a little bit brittle. Horvat is good, but not a franchise piece. Beyond that it's pretty freaking unimpressive. I'm excluding Hughes obviously.

 

[Thirty One]

If you had the Hughes brothers, can you even play them on the same PP unit? It’s not like the Sedins who complemented each other so well, they do a lot of the same things.

 

[Bob Richards]

you could put donald brasher and jody shelley on the pp together if u truly believed in ur team

I don’t know what this means.

 

[Edge]

I don’t see it happening.

Rangers aren’t doing it without getting a ransom.

Vancouver isn’t going to want to part with the pieces to make it happen.

If I’m the Rangers, I go with something obscene- Pettersson, the 10th, next year’s first, and Woo.

LoL, Petterson is the starting point, there is no deal without him.

Never in a million years happening anyway. Kakko will be a Ranger in June.

Now that’s more along the lines of what it would take for me to trade the pick.

Don’t like it? Then you don’t get it.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Yep.

Unless the pick is getting traded for McDavid I’m not moving it.

For real man. I feel dirty even thinking about the possibility of a trade

 

[Alluckks]

Peterson, 10th, 2020 1st would have me say "okay I understand why Gorton took that deal"

 

[Miller Time NYR]

Granted it’s all clickbait from the athletic or whoever, but if a trade for the second pick doesn’t start with Pettersson than that’s the easiest hangup Gorton should ever experience in his life. End of story.

There’s not enough quantity in the nucks arsenal to make that trade even remotely worth it if it doesn’t include #40.

 

[QJL]

Pettersson alone would be ridiculous. Did anyone here watch him this season? He’s got far more value than Hughes or Kakko by quite a margin.

Pettersson + 10th + 2020 1st? That gets any player in the league not named McDavid.

There is no deal to be had with Vancouver for #2. Let’s let it go.

If Hughes is at #2 and Vancouver wanted him, Pettersson is the starting point. End of story.

If they don't want to include him? Fine, then we'd just draft Hughes ourselves.

The question was not "what is fair value"

 

[Ola]

The answer should be basically nothing. If the Devils pass on Hughes and we trade down...that would test my fandom.

Yeah, hence why we almost never see teams actually trade up. There were talks about us being able to do it before the lottery, it would be hard...
