Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Schaller could be sacrificed. He's got 5 points in 32 games and is a minus 5. He's 28 years old and has no future here. If we lost him for nothing, who cares. He is listed as a center. I wonder if he gets waived this season? Strap some goalie pads on the boy, and Philly will take him :D But, I do t...

I would resign Edler to a series of 1 year contracts. He can have full NMC in any year except 20/21. (I don't want to have to protect him). Tell him up front you are overpaying him, and give him 6 or 7 million next year to prove it. (Wtf, it ain't my money). Then later, after we have signed Boeser,...

Brendan Batchelor @BatchHockey Wednesday practice lines for the #Canucks: Goldobin-Horvat-Boeser Roussel-Sutter-Granlund >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>this is gross. switch to 3 or 4 ! Baertschi-Gaudette-Virtanen I wanna see Baertshi, Gaud and Virtanen play together. About time that Gaudette gets some ski...

God, why wouldn't they cough up 5th for Nilsson then? Why would they? They are tanking, and saved a 5th doing it. Because you need a winning culture. Isn't that what we believe? I agree that you need a winning culture (regardless of your actual record), but, seriously, how does Nilsson help that? H...

Don't know if posted elsewhere, but icymi Patrik Berglund is on waivers, iirc JB sought him in a package in 2014 for the RK trade.

Berglund
for
Eriksson

And a 6th

Pavel Bure picked at 113th says hello... Interesting comparison. Bure is the hands down winner of out-performing his draft position, but he woulda been top 10, or even top 5 if the GMs thought he could be brought over, due to contract/rules issues. But, Boeser is easily our most over-achieving pick...

http://dailyhive.com/vancouver/canucks-sign-mitch-eliot-free-agent-2018 Canucks sign 20-year-old free agent defenceman Mitch Eliot RHS offensive defenseman will likely play in Utica next season. Pretty much a zero risk - low reward signing. Not many undrafted 20yr olds make an impact in the bigs. B...

Jake is ok in my books now, I’ve accepted that he isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed and does stupid things with the puck when under pressure and has zero anticipation skills

I’ve lowered my expectations but he’s ok in my books

Aaah, the first step in becoming a true Canucks fan.

And, if they promise to claim Eriksson in the expansion draft, I'll promise to buy season tickets. Wow - I didn't realize you such an Eriksson fan! :D I like Eriksson, but I don't like his contract for the last 2 years. Well, I don't like his contract right now either, but it isn't hurting the Canu...

Just don't get me started on messier.... Other than location, Seattle hasn't done anything yet. They can settle in near Columbus in the ranking for now. While I will likely hate them in 3-4 years time, my first thought is we should have an easier travel schedule. And, if they promise to claim Eriks...

So...how well does Gagner have to play to keep from being sent down once Sutter and Beagle come back? Heck, how well does he have to play to become trade-able??

What do you mean swap? Nikolay on dee, Nikita on Eli's wing? Sounds like something the blob would wanna give a whirl. :mrgreen: Trade both in response to your pump and dump suggestion ? No no no no no no no. Ono nonononono Why not? If we dump goldfinger that’s just gonna piss of tryamkyn even more....

Gagner has 6 points in 5 games with the Marlies (and is -4 to boot). Maybe, with enough injuries in the league , someone decides to make Benning an offer ??? I wouldn’t count on it Which part? The "enough injuries" part, or "make Benning an offer" part? I mean, I can always dream the leaves suffer ...
