Proposal: Value of Quinn Hughes

Ooh if Detroit offers this I would do it. Maybe a separate deal around Petey for Larkin?
But I would do this Hughes deal.

DeBrusk - Petey - Raymond
Hoglander - Kasper - Lekkerimaki (all that upside)
...

M. Petey - Hronek (hopefully Filip can be the #1 offensive D)
Edvinsson - Myers (new shutdown duo)
Agree with all of this but Hogs isn't a top 6 player.
 
Has he come right out and said he is not resigning or are we just assuming.All I have ever heard him say is he wants to win.
He apparently hasn’t even said anything to Canucks’ management about playing alongside his brothers, JR was just speculating that could be a motivating factor for him if the Canucks can’t turn things around quickly.
 
Jersey fans offering a few beads and trinkets, maybe some dreamcatchers at the Greyhound Station.

I'm curious what the Crackpipes might offer, three hours to the south of us. You going to run Beniers, Wright and Catton down the middle? Surely they could include one of them in a deal. Ronnie Franchise is stockpiling assets down there and he has a long relationship with the old man. Sooner or later the fans want to win.

Detroit makes sense. How long will they wait to get good again. Quinn has an off season home there.
 
The Machiavellian move would be to offersheet Luke for 11.4M.

If the Devils match, they can't afford Quinn. If they don't match, Quinn stays. Whatever the Canucks pay bother Hughes brothers, deduct the 5M-6M that Luke should have been paid, and the remaining cap is the cost to keep Quinn.

The other factor is that it would plant seeds of doubt within the family and tear the three apart. If the other two brothers pressure Luke not to take it so that the three of them can play together, he's never seeing 11.4M again. It would take like 3 months, maybe Patrik Allvin dresses up like a woman (like Bugs bunny did) and tries to get into one of their ears about how they are the real star.

Ultimately the resentment and turmoil will result in Quinn signing a 5x5 type contract with the Canucks just to prove a point to Luke.
