I'm certain they were offered a first. No way they weren't.
So a 1st in a poor draft from 24-32. And an owner telling you no.
Basically yeah. Or hang onto him and overpay I guess.

Allvin overpays to get the players he wants so he can’t understand why he isn’t getting his ask for his players. He really sounded perplexed.

Sounds like PA threw Boeser under the bus in his presser today, how much worse can this day get for the Canucks?

Yeah, he bsically called him untradeable. That's nice. Brock is probably outta gher now and he walkks for nothing. This franchise just can't function with this ownership.

Oh come on Wids. Look at the evidence. It was a seller's market for gawd.s sake. Let's at least be straight with each other, the team bullshitting us is bad enough.Look around, no one is buying this spin from the team.

Agree, it all comes back to ownership.

The Canucks never made a secret out of not wanting to re-sign Boeser. No wonder he feels disrespected. They should have traded him right after his 40 goal season. Waited to long.

What the heck are they doing then? It's a disastrous turn of events.

Bizarre management from this team then.

Still doesn’t prove they turned down a first. Let’s be honest with each other. Canucks didn’t want picks and prospects. Made it known they wanted roster player(s) so they could still compete.

Neither you nor I know what was on the table. So your guess is as good as mine. But I simply don’t buy that they turned down a 1st or any other good trade. I believe him he got offered less and that that return would inhibit our ability to make the playoffs. This was all about still making the playoffs and they felt they were better suited to do that than take any return they were being offered. This is where it is fucked up. Boston just unloaded a shitload because they can read the tea leaves. So ya, maybe that part is ownership saying playoffs or your job. This is my frustration.

We always seem to fail to move out players when other teams can move on.

Standard Ops for this management.

Destroy the player/coach before casting him aside.

On the bright side, none of the prospects were shipped out today.

Well let's disagree then, I can't believe they weren't offered anything worth trading for. He's a better hockey player than Anthony Beauvillier in my very humble opinion.The rest of your post hits the target square. Ownership wants the two gates.I used to do schtick about this stuff with Frankie, I know the drill :lol:
