Leafs or Oilers. 

 

The Oilers are idiots. They could have easily paid a 2nd. Morons I tell you... Their window is later in the tooth than ours

Oilers are already too tall and teams can just pass it between their legs...  I don't like the way they play.  That said, the future is now for them and if they make the playoffs they'll be coming in hot.  Canucks are entering their window now and have depth and futures in place.  Oilers aren't like that and I wonder when and if they'll join their Alberta rivals and start selling off players as well.

tanev is 6'3" 200 lbs of brains, guts, balls, and heart. his intangibles are beyond reproach. he brings so much more to a team than a "first pass forecheck saver". just ask every teammate, coach and manager he's ever had. 

I ageee fully. But this team needs a net clearing, big physical dman more. Nothing against Tanev. I think Alvin feels the same as he probably could of gotten Tanev for the same deal.

Well... we still need guys who can play defence. Tryamkin isn't going to cut it at an nhl level ever again.

And there are other guys in our system that can? Just saying!!! But I know it won't happen but worth the talk about because Tryamkin plays a very similar style like Zadorov knowing how to use their size to their advantage and throwing the big hits!!

Beau was a salary dump to facilitate the Horvat trade. We were able to turn him into a fifth that we used to get this done. 

 

So, we got Zadorov for a 2026 3rd...essentially a 2024 4th/5th as current picks are valued higher than later year ones.

 

Great play PA...great play!

You could even say that we traded an expiring UFA in horvat, a 2nd (and 3rd now) for

Hronek

Raty

Zadorov

4th rd

 

You kidding me! Woop woop

Excellent trade! I can't believe we've gone from the garbage we witness the past several years to being in win-now mode. Because that's what this trade signifies- Canucks are in it to win it. And Allvin has done it without sacrificing the future. I tip my hat to Allvin and company. And I don't think any of this happens without Aquaman agreeing to eat OEL's salary. So thank you Frankie.
