Do you think it is because Aqualini would not sign-off on it or because around the league everyone knows the Canucks are bent over a barrel and treating them accordingly in any trade negotiations?

The first, BB would be a good add to a team and Canucks could have gotten a 1st for him.

Absolute dead certainty.

Allvin is bullshitting. Beauvillier gets a 2nd rd pick! Give me a break, Allvin. Something tells me Aqualini wouldn’t sign off. Fuck I hate this team

Yeah he sounded borderline depressed. Like all the previous GM’s end up sounding

Agree. We all know this is on ownership. That is why I can understand not trading Boeser, they want that playoff revenue.

But Suter? He is at 1.6 mil and would have been a good depth asset to a cup contender. Trading him should not affect Vancouver's chances to sneak into the playoffs.

A second for Beauvillier but no decent offers for Suter or Boeser. He's obviously lying and throwing Brock under the bus to cover it up.

Who wants blueberry pie!

People on twitter (x) are wondering if there will be any "sell the team" chants tonight. If they have a rough game against Manny, there could be.

It must be a kick in the nuts for Boeser. Canucks could not give him away 2 years ago and now they can’t trade him as the offers were shit. No one wanted him badly enough to take a chance. Maybe that makes him easier to re-sign?

Load up on big retirement contracts on players turning 30 on the down side of their careers?

I really hope so. Blueberries took a big shit on the fans today, he deserves it.

I think if Canucks were offered a 1st for Boeser they would have jumped. But Allvin had previously said they were not interested in picks as much as they needed roster players with term. But I don’t buy they would turn down a first for him.

Anthony Beauvillier returned a second ffs. This was a big time seller's market.

A late 2nd vs an early 3rd for Soucy

Weird

I'm certain they were offered a first. No way they weren't.

Why is it a kick in the nuts for Boeser? They offered him a very good deal. Nobody knows if Franky kiboshed a trade. Boeser, if he continues as he has, will be lucky to get 30 million over 4 or 5 years.

So a 1st in a poor draft from 24-32. And an owner telling you no.

Luke Scenn returned a 2nd and a 4th.

Brandon Tanev a second.
