Mike Vanderhoek Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 14 minutes ago, Coconuts said: I'd rather retain Lindholm and add a lower cost complimentary winger Center depth is key come playoff time, he makes us a better defensive team too Zucker or Duclair, someone closer to that bracket as opposed to chasing another big fish We were one of the highest scoring teams in the league prior to the Lindholm trade, I'm not convinced we need Guentzel agreed, I have heard some interviews where Tocchet is a fan of Duclair and familiar with him so could see that being an addition at a likely low cost even perhaps compared to Zucker. I think Kessel signs and another depth piece or two comes in. Back to Duclair, if the Canucks can make it work I would be all for them pushing a multi player move with the Sharks involving Duclair and Rutta. Two solid veterans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's up to 16 goals as of last night and woukd likely cost a helluva lot less than some of the bigger fish Add him and Kessel and our forward depth is likely fine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Johngould21 Posted March 6 Popular Post Share Posted March 6 28 minutes ago, NucksNation said: I notice this all the time too. Petey looked almost disappointed that Miller scored the winner. “Some guys need a break from each other” - Tocchet when he split up Miller/Boeser and Petey/Hughes on different pp units. I don’t think it’s a huge deal, but not ideal for a long playoff run. Are you kidding me? My god this board is painful to read. 1 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recoup a 1st and a roster player, at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitz-Pix Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Friedman is on the Jeff Marek show right now "speculating, thinking, feeling" that Carolina is the front runner for Guentzel. He's suggesting Carolina has the prospects that most appeal to Pittsburgh...THANK GOD I've never wanted Friedman to be right, more than I do right now. LOL Time to pivot JR, get your backup plan in place if you feel you need to do something...BTW, doing nothing is a plan as well. Otherwise call Podz back up...we're 2-0 with him in the lineup. Haha 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why because some of you lack common sense and critical thinking abilities? The coach and even both players have fucking admitted it. Ever play high level sports? Lots of players on teams don’t get along. Never mind the fact I personally know a player on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS, I'm calling you out pal. You get all of that as he skates in front of Talbot, after the puck goes in. It was a hard fought game, the team fought hard in the second and third periods.

OldFaithfulcap Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 NYR wants a center, maybe we flip lindy there and get assets for guentzel? I would like us to load up, fine with guentzel or toffoli and eberle and a bruiser. Silovs is great but i'd have him in play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviewonder20 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 4 minutes ago, Coconuts said: I’m glad they are worried about the price for Guentzal, so am I, lol. I’d prefer a smaller add (bottom 6 bruiser) and look at free agency for Petey’s winger or see how Podz does in the top six for a longer look. If Lindholm wants 8+, drive him to Boston.

HKSR Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 1 hour ago, Bardown said: Sounds like it would be necessary for cap and also to get the assets to flip to Pitts. it allows us to avoid sending a our key guys rumour is it’s Boston taking Lindholm which makes a lot of sense apparently Lindholm rejected an extension with us too We'd be fine with cap if Mikheyev is the piece moving out. Now assets on the other hand... yes, Lindholm could facilitate that part. From my perspective, it is largely a lateral move going from a strong defensive centreman like Lindholm to a strong offensive winger like Guentzel.

DownUndaCanuck Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I wonder if we can flip Lindholm to any team for a 1st + prospect, then pass that right along for Buchnevich, Guentzel or Toffoli. Cut our losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwarrior Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Really hoping they don't chase Guentzel down a ribbit hole and miss out on someone else that might come in at a cheaper cost. I doubt Toffoli or Zucker is going to cost what the rumored price its gonna cost to get Guentzel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheaper caphit, expiring contract, great skater and offensive player who has some size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
