Trade Deadline Thread: Chaos Simmering

[Jerry the great]

Well they have not put up Lekk nor Willander.

To have any chance, Hoglander is the only one that makes sense.

that's a dumb bet to make then. risk reward is asymmetrical and not in the way you want it. Not to mention that it completely f***s up our cap situation for next year if you extend him. If our odds of winning a cup are like 1 in 10 without him.....what are they with him? 1 in 9? Hell, maybe they're better with Hoglander if he goes on a heater, or Guentzel is more worried about his next deal and less about playing fearless hockey.

Conroy probably retained 25% of the costs.

I don't care. I just want Colorado and Vegas to meet. that would be one heck of a series.

Last time they met in the playoffs, Vegas pushed them around.

 

[Nucker101]

Trade for Alex Carrier, cowards

 

[wonton15]

Trade for Bjugstad and Zucker and swap Mikheyev cowards

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Trade for Alex Carrier, cowards

We aren’t going to be trading for a D, unless it’s a very depth guy. They have 7 D they like and are comfortable playing.

 

[Nuckles]

Yeah, a bottom 6 forward with limited offensive ability.

I highly doubt Carrier is available for a 3rd round pick so my point remains. All the recent rumors have linked the Canucks to forwards, I doubt they're looking to move their 2025 2nd or any good prospects for a D right now.

Also to add to this, I wouldn't be surprised if they think they're likely to get Tanev in free agency so they don't want to give up prime assets for someone they don't want to re-sign.

 

[Tact]

Dubas just accept Podkolzin and Raty coward

 

[TruGr1t]

We aren’t going to be trading for a D, unless it’s a very depth guy. They have 7 D they like and are comfortable playing.

You should be comfortable at least 8 deep if you want to actually go deep in the playoffs. We're already down two top-four guys.

Kovacevic would be nice but other than that I agree. Nobody out there that is much of an improvement over what we have right now.

Friedman is a very good #8 with some playoff experience.

 

[ahmon]

tanev was such a miss, known chemistry with Hughes, good locker room guy. Watched him this year, still looks solid.

2nd + hunter b would have gotten it done

 

[AwesomeInTheory]

Saw Canucks were trending on Twitter and...

womp womp.

 

[VanillaCoke]

I dont see how toffoli isn't on this team and mik still is in the next ~24 hours, need to pay whatever to it happen.

 

[TruGr1t]

Friedman is a very good #8 with some playoff experience.

Depends very much on the situations with Myers and Soucy, but I'd like one more guy with NHL capabilities.

I'm also not entirely convinced Cole won't buckle at some point due to age.

 

[Bleach Clean]

I think they'll get a Dman, but Forward is definitely the priority.

Could be a depth move, or could be a money-in, money-out situation with Mikheyev.

 

[Tact]

If we said yesterday and today we acquired Freidman, Zadorov, Lafferty and Lindholm I think people would be pretty ecstatic right now.

This needs to be taken into account that we’ve acquired these guys in the beginning/mid of the season on decent deals.

 

[Bleach Clean]

So the other thing with missing out on Tanev and now Walker with the 1st + Mikheyev rumour template (for Tanev), it's still there for Toffoli IF NJ values Mikheyev at all.

I think we are hooked on trades.

Hell, I would even take a Sheldon Dries for Wilmer Skoog trade right now. Chase Wouters for Graham Slaggert even sounds okay.

Just
Make
A
Damn
TRADE!

We cleared Pearson, Beauvillier, and acquired DeSmith too. The track record and turnover this year has already been insane.

Why would another team value a guy we want to dump? Sadly, Mikheyev has negative value at the salary we are paying.

So many time the Canucks have overpaid for FA's. This is the 1st year in a long time where our FA signings have all looked great.

 

[DimitriL07]

Lol Dubas is gunna get stuck with Kakko and a 1st that’s pretty much a 2nd
