Monahan for Lekkerimaki? Be good deal for both clubs. Or Canucks first whichever you prefer.
Out of that list, I think only Tanev or Zadorov would be of interest to the Canucks, and personally speaking I think the Canucks shouldn't trade most of their youth. They've finally stockpiled some assets and they can already make a good run with what they have, so I'd hope they only trade a 2nd or something similar if there's the possibility to re-sign them (let Myers fall off the books and have either of those D replace him). We don't need goalies, wings or centers.
Any team with a slightly developmentally stunted RD prospect with some size and defensive ability that they'd like to trade? I'd be open to trading Podkolzin for the right offer.
No to trading Willander/ Lekkerimaki/ Brew, and no to frankly most of the prospect pool.

They finally have a couple of D prospects to develop. Let them develop. The Canucks really aren’t in the position a Buffalo or Detroit is, when it comes to having enough talented prospects, to be moving any. Other than Podkolzin, there’s very few they should even consider moving…. Yet. It’s gonna have to probably be picks they move to upgrade the blue line.

Let me play devil’s advocate: Both Lekkerimaki and Brustewicz have significantly improved their stock in only the last six months.
Depending on how the Canucks internally project their NHL odds—they may choose to sell high rather than roll the dice.

Sean Monahan are you talking about? For a 1st or a former 15th overall tracking well now? Is this a joke or are you trying to fleece people on a message board. You can have both for him, so call your people and I’ll call mine and let’s get this done.
That's the only trade I would do if Dobson is available. Otherwise no way am trading any of Tom Wilander, Hunter, Lekker or Arturs silovs. Those are the next generation of Canucks players, 2 D, 1 forward and 1 goalie.
Tanev can be had for a 2nd and a 3rd. Nk way teams are trading top prospects for 34 year old injury prone Tanev who is UFA and has couple of years of NHL playing left in him. Zadorov might get you a late 1st.
I rather have Durzi than Ethan Bear. Although we could get both if the cards are played right.
Hughes-Hronek
Cole-Durzi
Soucy-Bear
Myers
As long as this pushes Myers down further to a scratch or 7th dman, I will be a happy man.
No way will we trade Lekker. He is similar to Boeser and we need a cheap sniper on ELC next to Petey.
Yeah, I'm not going to fault anyone responding to this thread, given the title and original premise, but nothing being offered here is of much interest. I don't mean for our precious, super-special-because-they're-ours prospects, I just mean in general.
I'll make an exception for the mention of half of the Calgary Flames active roster being available, but the main guys we'd be interested would fall into the 2nd or 3rd round pick territory, not one of our prospects. But that isn't anything new, I'd hope.

If Vancouver really wanted to go for it this year... They should target Lindholm for 2C so they can play JT Miller on line one as a winger to EP.
That would be expensive and would cost Vancouver a top prospect and a lottery protected 1st round pick.
But that top six would be interesting.
JT Miller - EP - Boeser (Vegas would have concerns handling this line, as would the Oilers).
Mikheyev - Lindholm - Kuzmenko (could ignite this guy).
If you could dump Garland in this deal, would really be ideal for future cap space concerns.
Moves Di Giuseppe down to the 3rd line too, where he'd upgrade that unit.

The Sharks happily accept this offer and will send Marc-Edouard Vlasic for Podkolzin

Small winger, future 60 points, doesn't really blow our doors off. I would do a first for Monahan then? Its Going rate. Sounds like you value Lettermaki much more than me. Doubt he is better than Mesar or Kidney. We stacked with semi skilled small wingers

This gave me a moment of pause to consider.
On the one hand, i'm really not very high on Ekblad at all. Cruising a lot on name recognition/draft pedigree. His mobility being shot is very problematic, and makes him a tricky, risky projection into a different system. But he is still a Top-4D with size. Something this team could use. And that's not an outrageous asking price, realistically speaking. Especially while unloading Myers $6M cap in the process.
The biggest thing that just kills it for me, is that extra year of very high $7.5M salary. Along with the concern about what his next contract looks like based on that baseline. It'd be nice to get a better defenceman than Myers for that money this year...but the benefit of Myers is that his bloated deal is up after this year. They can walk away clean. $7.5M on Ekblad is too much, and would really make things insanely tight cap-wise for next year. With the major raises coming due for guys like Pettersson and Hronek especially.

I don't get this at all. JT Miller has honestly been a better all-around Center than Pettersson this season. He's looked like more of a winger at times, but playing in Tocchet's system, he's looked every bit the part of a Center and it's had him far more consistently engaged in the whole game, the whole length of the ice.
It'd be nice to have a Top-6 RH faceoff option, but the price it'll cost for Lindholm...i just don't see why that would make any sense. It'd clear the cupboards of prime assets, and he's not a guy they'd be able to retain with an extension. So it'd be a pure, super expensive "rental". Which is very much not the sort of place the Canucks are currently in. They're much more in the market for pointed, strategic acquisitions that can be more than just a rental.

I'm sure you would, we wouldn't though, and I highly doubt any team would, you seem to have an inflated perception of Monahan.

Please none! All those years of watching Benning bleed out assets to be bottom of the standings we finally have a chance at decent players on entry level deals in the near future

Are there a bunch of Monahans in the league? Bottom 6 C's like him don't get a 1st rounder.

He'd be a third line center, around 50 points. Good defensive and good on faceoffs. They return a first. Coleman, Goodrow, Foligno type return Monahan will return.
