Gotta think VAN 1st is going as well… gonna be a late pick, so not a huge loss to the Canucks

 

[VIPettersson]

knew he would, too bad it didn't work out here. Liked him as a person, great creativity, great hands.

 

[Double Dion]

If Lindholm is expensive then just rent Crosby for the playoffs then agree to trade-him back for a 7th?
He might waive as he's familiar with management.

That violates the CBA. I thought you claimed inside knowledge of the trade a few posts ago?

 

[Donuts]

so no crosby then lol
lets go lindholm

Wish Lindy all the best. Vancouver looking pretty strong this year.

How is this remotely expensive? It’s like the #30 pick and a guy the Canucks are so sick of they play him 14 minutes a night and are desperately trying to get his salary off the roster for this year and next.

Calgary is going to love Kuzmenko. Great personality, and he's not as bad as his stats make him seem.

Tocc's system requires you to backcheck and that isn't Kuzmenko. He's got filthy mits.

 

[EveryDay]

Congrats Vancouver! Now go get the cup!

 

[Nucker42]

Kuzmenko + 1st + Podz + conditional 3rd?

 

[super6646]

Okay it’s multiple assets

 

[Donuts]

multiple assets sounds scary
better be 6th and 7th rder lol

 

[TheDoldrums]

So Vancouver gets another All-Star? They can't keep getting away with this!

 

[WetcoastOrca]

I’m still suffering from PBS (Post Benning Syndrome). Break out in sweats every time a trade is about to be announced.

you're really staying ahead of this....

 

[aryanoboi]

It’s sad to think this is truly the end of those insane first lines we had in 2019 and 2022 with gaudreau, Lindholm, and Monahan/tkachuk.

I will never forget the purple Gatorade days.

Wish Lindy all the best. Vancouver looking pretty strong this year.

Hopefully Kuzmenko plays well for you. He's an incredibly exciting player in the right system and when he's playing with confidence.

 

[InfinityIggy]

The most important part of this is it means Coleman can go to the all star game.

It really doesn’t matter as long as it’s not a critical piece off the current roster or Willander or Lekki.

Don’t be afraid to dump mid tier prospects and assets to go for it. Yeah, you can make it seem like Hoglander or Raty or EP2 are like these great assets but whatever…I’m impressed with Allvin and Tocchet. Freaking go for it.
