It would be unreal if we could add Bolland and Clutterbuck to our 3rd line. After that the shopping list should be a backup goalie. Top 4 defenceman, 4th line C and 4th line winger.

The Oilers should go hard after Clutterbuck and Bolland. Would instantly make our bottom 6 a lot better but IMO, the Hawks deal Bolland to the east but I still hope the Oilers go hard after Clutterbuck.

East and West don't really matter as much, remember it's the new "4 Conference" system next year, if Bolland ends up in EDM the Hawks won't have to worry about seeing him the playoffs until a Stanley Cup Semi-Final.

And I agree with you, they would dramatically improve that 3rd line.

:laugh: just beat me to it. I agree with that, if we can land even one of them, it would be great for us. Preferably Clutterbuck between the two because I think Hemsky can get us that third line center.

Ron Hainsey (or trade), Boyd Gordon, Matt Hendrick/Eric Nystrom and Anton Khudobin.

Right, forgot about the new system there. Hate the system but could help us out haha.

Yeah...we wouldn't be winning anything with Lecavalier as our #1C
Trading RNH is just taking a step backward. The kid is going to be a 1C for many years to come

But I didn't say... trade RNH...

But Komisarek is so good?! :sarcasm:

It was all a thinly veiled joke, although...

Monahan-RNH-Eberle
Hall-Lecavalier-Yakupov
PRV-Smith-Bolland
Clutterbuck-Gordon-Lander

See, it's like a whole lineup of centres!

(MacT - Do not do the above)

You'd think all teams in Division A would pay a handsome price to have Bolland play the Canucks 5 times a year.

MacT please get Lecavalier... Absolute perfect fit on the 2nd line C

I would easily add him, but the market is going to bump his contract up to 5M+. I could see him signing in Florida, Montreal or......Vancouver unfortunately.

And he's already lost a step, so I'd like to look elsewhere if we're looking at players who've been bought out.

1. He could get whatever money he wants in Montreal.

2. He could be named captain almost immediately.

The Barkov theory: Lecavalier bought out so that Barkov can take his place
TBay selects Barkov with the 3rd overall pick

Maybe this forces the Canucks to buyout Luongo and offer the same money straight at Vincent Lecavalier. That will give us time to acquire Bolland. He likes playing the Canucks.
