KoreanHockeyFan Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 If we're adamant on re-signing Lindholm, which I hope we are, I'm more interested in who in the bottom 6 will be the odd one out. It'll be a shame, but it's getting crowded and someone's going to end up moving on in the off-season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanofvan Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 3 minutes ago, DeNiro said: The 1st was standard in a trade like this. These type of players don’t go for one or the other that’s fantasy stuff. Allvin and his scouts got HB in the third round, you don’t think they can find more gems? People get too attached to prospects, it’s a weird thing in this market. Agreed, the 1st was most likely to be included. Like I said, I'm just concerned with the sheer amount of draft picks that have been traded. Wasn't that a huge knock on Benning? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything less than a Stanley cup final run this year would be a disappointment. Nothing is guaranteed, but i would think the Canucks make a Finals sooner than the Flames will 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoreanHockeyFan Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 (edited) 4 minutes ago, fanofvan said: Ok but this trade included a 1st and Hunter...so essentially 2 entry level contacts. Like I said, I would have preferred one but not both. Just my 2 cents. 1st round pick + prospect is the standard price you pay for a guy like Lindholm. There is zero chance you get Lindholm without a 1st. Let me ask you this. Let's say all of our prospects pan out - where do you seriously see Brzustewicz fitting into our future lineup? Hughes has the powerplay quarterback role locked down for the next decade and you could easily argue Willander has just as high of a ceiling as Brzustewicz, if not higher. Canucks sold high on a prospect position that they have an excess of. If it was something like a 1st round pick + Lekkerimaki, I'd be just as nervous as you are.

It'll be a shame, but it's getting crowded and someone's going to end up moving on in the off-season. I think Garland will be moved in the summer as he has vastly improved his stock with his play this year, and yes, he is a HUGE part of the third line but will be replaced with someone in Abby to have a shot at holding that line together - assuming Joshua and Blueger are still on the club as well. If we win the Cup (fingers crossed along with everything else), then Garland will be jettisoned without a second thought for some reasonable value in return.

Messier_Sucks Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 17 minutes ago, Hammertime said: Henrik Kes Malhotra Lapierre? No disrespect to Manny but he doesn't hold a candle to E.Lindholm. I agree that the C depth is the best we've had. We got a 100pt C in Petey Miller reminds me alot of Kes but with way better playmaking ability. Lindholm is a former Selke candidate that can chip in about 60 pts or even near point per game on a good year. Blueger/Suter Our 2011 4th line was literally non-existent with Oreskovich and Tanner Glass. IMO this is absolutely the deepest group of forwards we've had. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I care more about the young players we have now and surrounding them with as much talent as possible. At some point you have to exit the rebuilding phase and go for it. We still have a ton of young talent in the system and now an organization that will be able to attract good free agent talent. I’m not worried about a few draft picks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a forward taking up a roster spot in Kuzmenko who struggled to play the way the coach needs. A scoring threat but one dimensional who was working on his game. The Canucks just replaced him with a legit top six #2 C who is capable at excelling on the PP and PK. He wins faceoffs and can produce offense. He can skate well and plays with an edge physically too. Pretty much Tocchet's wet dream. The Canucks dramatically upgraded their forward group today. Lindholm being 29 still younger than JT and not quite past his prime. Also a potential longer term fit here. Much to like. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF, and I know its a massive IF, but I'm playing your game....I would put Willander with Hughes and Brz with Hronek. Willander is more of a defence first dman whereas Hunter is more offensive minded.
