Confirmed Trade: [VAN/CGY] Elias Lindholm for Andrei Kuzmenko, Hunter Brzustewicz, Joni Jurmo, 2024 1st, cond. 2024 4th

[Grub]

Obviously it hurts to lose Brz but keeping Hoglander, Podz, Will and Lekk are the most important things. Brz looks great but he's somewhat expendable.

When you have Quinn Hughes, we really don't need a guy like Brz in the system. He is not going to get the PP minutes when Hughes is the main guy.

 

[CanMerc]

Conditional 4th?

 

[Diversification]

The tweet makes it sound like it's Tanev himself and running after a train as it's departing the station.

Honestly though, what really happened to the Vancouver Calgary rivalry, We are always great trade partners haha, I also don't think the fan bases hate each other anymore.

The Oilers are the Flames true rival. I think as long as the deals aren't with Edmonton then it's all good.

Sorry Vancouver has never won the cup

Incorrect, in 1915 Vancouver's professional hockey team, The Millionaires, won the Stanley Cup.

 

[Grub]

Sucks Tanev was not included in this deal.

 

[Some Other Flame]

This should cement Monahan's return at a 3rd given his relative abilities to Lindholm.

More importantly, pretty solid deal from Conroy if it ends up being Brzustewicz, Kuzmenko, and a 1st

 

[DearDiary]

How? Like 5 seconds after the tweet was posted

 

[Peter Griffin]

Avs and Jets fans in shambles right now.

 

[Russian_fanatic]

Hunter is a good prospect
Leading the OHL in scoring as a 19 years old defenceman

This biggest concern is his skating ability, pretty average by pro standard AND he’s not going to get the PP opportunities with Hughes and Hronek on the team

Hunter is a good prospect. His ceiling is 100% dependant on his skating.

 

[super6646]

Good return Connie. Im happy. Canucks are getting a great player too

 

[Canucks LB]

So basically 5.5m cap space next year and lindholm for 1st and hunter

 

[BKarchitect]

Canucks are smart. Sell high on a dime a dozen defensive prospect and upgrade their NHL roster.

Dime a dozen is probably harsh but yeah, get ready for a barrage of newly minted Hunter experts spouting off his junior league stats and NHLe graphs.

 

[TheDoldrums]

That is a hefty package for a rental, think Calgary did good

 

[GirardSpinorama]

This is a good package. A first, a NHL roster player who just scored 70+ points last year and isn't super old, a prospect that Canuck fans said was good (I have no idea), and a two other small pieces.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

Avs and Jets fans in shambles right now.

We'll be fine, plenty of trade bait still on the board. Happy for Vancouver, this seems like a fair trade and will make them more exciting.

 

[Grub]

I really had hoped that they could have also put Tanev in that deal somehow.

 

[aryanoboi]

Both teams win this trade.

Please beat the oilers guys

 

[CherryToke]

Where's Tanev I was promissed Tanev

 

[Rob Brown]

Feels like a bad return to me.

 

[Some Other Flame]

Damn, Conroy killed it

 

[JurassicTunga]

Great package for the Flames.
