Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Yeah... and once again Skyo ignores reality in the trade market (fair enough, pipe dreams and all). We wouldn't trade for Karlsson if he didn't have an extension in place. If he had an extension in place, he would cost us (at least) one of Horvat, Boeser, Petterssen and then some. You're filling on...

Sharks looked to have adjusted their defensive game against Vegas. Didn’t give them room on the rush and zone entries, forced a ton of dump and chase. The ice looked shitty. Jones very good. Lucky at times as Vegas didn’t get bounces at all, but terrific poise and efficiency tonight. He’s a really g...

Here’s a question rooted in hypotheticals... IF Pettersson makes the team next year as a center, would you trade Loui to Edmonton straight up for Lucic? I realize Milan is a slug by comparison, but he would add a large measure of protection for Elias and Brock. He may have had a shitty season, but I...

Not too bad an idea really is it, subject to getting a pretty nice sweetener. He does have a big cap hit but it’s only three years. Still like to move Eriksson though. Next year perhaps. July 2nd. To Arizona, Edmonton, Montreal, New Jersey, or Carolina. All of them either budget teams or destinatio...

As for Tkachuk vs Juolevi pick, I don't see the Flames ripping it up, and Juolevi is coming onto the team exactly when the Canucks need a influx of quality dmen prospects. The Flames poor season has little to do with Tkachuk. It was a mistake. I think Elmer would admit that..Either way Olaf needs t...

Linden on record saying this could be a good year for the Canucks to trade down and still get who they want.

The real question now is whether or not Elmer trades down..... The other question: Does Ottawa talk to Buffalo. Karlsson + 4th overall for the 1st + _______? Why would we trade down meds? The big talents in this draft are gone in the top 3. If someone comes along and wants to make a deal that makes...

Benning is a genius, he signed Gagner last summer as a way to get to his buddy Tavares Can you only imagine how he would fire up this fan base. Is there any smoke to this or is it more wishful thinking than... If he came and Dahlin came and Tryamkin came back. I’d blow Don Cherry’s dog Looks like y...

I would honestly rather have a top line centre and let Bo carry the second line. I know he’s our heir apparent for number one centre but I think he’s better suited to the number two spot. I’ve always thought this way about Bo. I think he’s the heir apparent for the captaincy, but he would be an ama...

If we aren’t picking Dahlin then next up take the Russian. This team can’t score it’s way out of a paper bag (aside from Boeser), and speed is needed. We have enough players who have shown they can be leaders in other areas, so I would see a player like him being an addition like Kucherov or Kessel,...

At 28 years old, he [Andersen] is in his prime, and based on the past two playoff seasons, he has defined himself as a very good goalie in the regular season who falls off a little or a lot in the post-season when the competition gets tougher. - Damien Cox Doc, do you have your hand up Damien’s ass...

Tampa in 6.
Pittsburgh in 7 (6 if Gino comes back by game 3).
Nashville in 7 (really hoping it's Winnipeg though).
Vegas in 5.

I'm definitely hoping for a Vegas/Winnipeg conference final.

At that point I have to pull for the Jets as the Canadian team, but I wouldn't be heartbroken to see the Knights go to the SCF and win. I think it would be fun just to take in the cinderella spectacle of it all.
