Proposal: Vancouver - Colorado

[jonlin]

This thought for the trade is strenghtening both teams. Colorado has a very good blueline, but could use a Top6 player to split Rantanen/MacKinnon. They are top-heavy, but depth has been an issue. Now when MacKinnon has been out, Rantanen has still scored a lot as a C.
Vancouver could use another young puckmoving defender on a nice contract.

Colorado get:
- Bo Horvat 5.5M UFA 2023
- 2nd 2022

Vancouver get
- Samuel Girard 5.0M UFA 2027

Salaries are a wash. Vancouver add the pick because Girard is signed long-term. Byram will take Girards place on the team.

If you bothered to read anything posted by Nuck fans you'd know how far off you are

 

[Avs44]

Well damn, even the non-Avs fans are now getting in on driving Canucks fans mad with Girard. Nice to see it’s spreading!

 

[Mrfenn92]

Easy no for Van

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Just what Vancouver was missing, an undersized offensive LD

Until this fantastically amazing talent that is Byram (holy ish was he good last night) stays healthy for an extended run, Avs need to hold onto Girard closely.

and if Byram does continue to demonstrate Star ability as he has all season, then maybe Girard is traded to a team that needs an elite #3 D man this is a puck moving L shot for a top six forward that’s young and signed long term.

that team is not Vancouver. They have Q Hughes. A similar style player. They don’t have the forward of equal value/age/term. Most of their forwards are rentals pending new deals.

Man Horvat must have fallen off a cliff for that price….

 

[Seattlebjprice]

If Horvat is available I’ll pay double what they’re offering.

Jim Benning is that you?

 

[Jayevs]

Close enough value wise but doesn’t fill needs for the Canucks so that obviously say no

 

[Patagonia]

Values are close, but VAN needs RHD.

 

[Cogburn]

Once again. Girard does nothing for Vancouver. A fine player, but we have 0 use for him. 0.

 

[bossram]

As a Vancouverite, I think Colorado is better off just holding on to Girard. Their blueline is the engine of the team and the style they play.

 

[RebuildinVan]

Vancouver does NOT need a puck moving defenseman.....we need defensemen that can actually defend. Trade does nothing for us

 

[Muffin]

Avs have no use for Horvat with the way Kadri is playing right now. Also Murray just got expectedly injured last game so trading Girard is a big no.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

For the 1000th time, we do not need a puck moving LHD. We need a RHD. We are not moving Horvat for a piece we don’t need. End of story

One of the worst proposals I’ve seen

You a Colorado fan I asssume??

This trade makes ZERO sense for Vancouver. We trade our captain and C (we lack depth at that position) for a small lhd (where we are deep at for undersized offensive D)

 

[Canuck86]

One of the worst proposals I’ve seen

Everyone on this site has made bad ones but this makes no sense for Van. We trade Bo or JT to Colorado only if Newhook is part of the deal coming back

Possibly not under the circumstance.

Very easy

 

[DekeyPete]

Everyone on this site has made bad ones but this makes no sense for Van. We trade Bo or JT to Colorado only if Newhook is part of the deal coming back

Or byram

 

[2HunnidJoints]

Byram for Petterson.

 

[Islay1989]

Just what Vancouver was missing, an undersized offensive LD

I don't see one in the proposal

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Stop making Girard a thing.

Van doesn’t want him.
