Trade Deadline Thread: Chaos Simmering

[Bleach Clean]

The Carolina Computer Boys eh?!? The Ant & the Grasshopper parable of the NHL. Good for them.

I'm glad that Guentzel stayed out east. That said, I hope they can't re-sign him.

 

[credulous]

i think parayko could be a really great acquisition for some team. don't think the canucks have the cap structure for him tho

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Hope: Toffoli without giving up Lekk/Tom/Hog

If not, Duclair

 

[wetcoast]

PLEASE

Lindholm, Lekkerimaki, Podkolzin, 1st, Raty. Just get er done without giving up Willander.

Well the source seems kind od Dubious of is that Dubas?

All that being said I think if Crosby ever moves it might be to the Avs.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

About Toffoli being the cheap option. Doesn't mean they'll get that but yeah...

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

I’ve been saying it for a while - I think some team is going to get Duclair for peanuts and be very happy they did. I’d like that to be us, but he hasn’t been linked to us at all.

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Does not look happy might request a trade to Vancouver before tomorrow.

At least we can put this one to bed.

 

[thekernel]

Would rather Barabanov than Duclair

 

[Hansen]

I wouldnt mind Greenway too, but he isnt a scoring solution and he isnt cheap

 

[Deeds26]

About Toffoli being the cheap option. Doesn't mean they'll get that but yeah...

Yeah, no, no thank you.

Best we can do is a 2nd and Tyler Madden

 

[Hansen]

About Toffoli being the cheap option. Doesn't mean they'll get that but yeah...

That's an absurd ask

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

If we're paying low, I think Duclair would be a very underrated pick up. Hell of a motivation for him going from the wasteland of San Jose to a playoff bound team/contender wherever he ends up. Sharks are definitely holding salary though.

 

[wetcoast]

Makes sense, Dubas loves Bunting in Toronto

Something like Bunting + 1st + prospect is my guess

Funny but I could see Bunting doing better in Pittsburg than his season has gone with the Canes.

Does anyone know why he is having such a crappy season?

 

[dez]

If the tdl passes and Pdg is still in the lineup, I’m not happy.

 

[AwesomeInTheory]

All I know is the Forsling and Hanifin signings have Allan Walsh popping tums

Hronek should be somewhere in between the two in AAV

That Forsling contract makes me irrationally angry.

We gave him up for Clendening. Ughhhhhhh.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Is Vatrano available?

Unavailable afaik

If the price is too high just acquire someone like Duclair or Zucker

As replacement mik sure, but still kinda need an impact top six fwd. Either toff or buch would be big adds.
How do we not pay up after what other top teams are doing, in 2nd place overall..

i think parayko could be a really great acquisition for some team. don't think the canucks have the cap structure for him tho

Lebrun said on Overdrive nothing is happening with parayko, team said not moving him, haven't asked, his agent has had no talks also. All smoke no mirrors

 

[MS]

About Toffoli being the cheap option. Doesn't mean they'll get that but yeah...

LOL, that’s more than we traded for him when he was 4 years younger and more than Calgary traded for him when he had 3 playoff runs on a plus-value contract.

It’s also more than Noah Hanifin - a legit 1D - was traded for, for an old 2nd line winger.

 

[Hansen]

That Forsling contract makes me irrationally angry.

We gave him up for Clendening. Ughhhhhhh.

He was waived by Carolina and bounced around. He had a coach who believed in him and went out of his way to give him these opportunities to flourish. As opposed to going through our hellscape of a development system playing for Cull or Green or whoever. It wouldn't have happened here for him.

What I do get mad about though is that Clendening is who they targeted. Awful move

 

[pitseleh]

For the Buch price

That seems like a good price given the extra year at a reasonable salary. If they can get a first back for Lindholm I’d happily flip that plus the team’s 2025 1st to St. Louis.

 

[Lat]

If the Toffoli price is really that much, I'd much rather just target Buchnevich

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Allvin and JR thought they were going shopping in Rodeo Drive.

Hopefully they can pull something off coming back at Dubas like:

Solved the "age gap" though.

Oy... prime Benning.

I agree with you on everything. That's why I said 'irrationally' angry.

Imagine what this team could be looking like if we had semi-competent people running our drafting, development, pro scouting, etc. for 8 years and not a bunch of simians.

(This is what I mean when I say that the previous regime set the Canucks back years.)

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Had high hopes for this TDL.

Not looking good right now given what's transpired around them.

Are you referring to the Kevin Weekes tweet in relation to the Hanifin signing? Nothing is done; He just said "I wouldn’t be surprised to see them agree to an 8 Yr Contract Extension in the neighborhood of 7M AAV".
