luckylager Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Just now, Rip The Mesh said: believe there was a little more to it, but I don't want to argue about draft picks.. Feel better if he wasn't almost 30. If the team wasn't riding such a miraculous turnaround, I'd be with you, and you're justified in being reluctant to move a 1st because we're all still suffering some post JB ptsd. However, they are 1stin the league and look like they needed a couple of big pieces to push them into that legit cup contender tier. This is a good move. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alf replied back with something that was factually incorrect and tossed is some made up name for the player as his basis for not being comparable. 21 minutes ago, fanofvan said: Are they incorrect statements? Stating numerous times that "Monnohands" is 36, multiple times, would indicate that he has no idea about the player being talked about...even after being corrected by multiple posters, multiple times. First day here? Alf will be in the CFF ROH one day, possibly even in the rafters. Read between the empties. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Messier_Sucks Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 7 minutes ago, fanofvan said: 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? Benning traded draft picks when we were in a rebuild that's the difference. PA is building a cup contender. Our rebuild is over, any pick we get now is likely going to help us in 3 years minimum if at all and 4-5 years or so before they start hitting their prime. Our window is now we have to go for it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DeNiro Posted February 1 Popular Post Share Posted February 1 1 minute ago, Alflives said: Same with Hronek. IMHAO these are not Canuck fans. These are fishers. It just baffles me anyone could not look at the team we have and not be excited about adding to it and surrounding them with the most talent possible. Instead they’re wringing their hands over pieces that won’t even pan out for 6 or 7 years if they do. Some peoples idea of winning the cup: Step 1: Picks and prospects Step 2: ?

Popular Post NoCupSyndrome Posted February 1 Popular Post Share Posted February 1 5 minutes ago, DeNiro said: Yea imagine a first place team actually putting their team in a position to win. Needed to wait 6 or 7 more years for these prospects to pan out… This was the same reaction that people had when we traded for Toffoli. Fans were pretty quiet after they watched him light it up though. And mgmt didn't trade any of its top 6 or so prospects/young players so risk / reward ratio lands heavily on the reward side 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a Canucks fan, have been for a lot of years and have been a STH for a long time. I like both Hronek and Lindholm, however wince a bit at the price paid in the most recent deal. Hronek had term and was a pending RFA, Lindholm can walk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metal Face Doom Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 21 minutes ago, fanofvan said: I don't hate the trade but I wish it could have been either the 1st or Brzustewicz, not both. I look at all the draft capital Alvin has moved in the past few years and with the number of UFA's coming up, plus raises, the team will need some entry level contracts to fill the spots. I only referenced Monahan as I think that would have given some cap flexibility to add more players this deadline, not because he is a superior player. Our tier 1 prospects are still here. Brzustewicz is over achieving at the moment but he isn't a prospect we can't live without. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 With the way Miller/Boeser have been going, imagine Petey/Lindholm going supernova together & being just as dangerous. Then you have the amazing 3rd line Then a 4th line with Hogs/Laff thats fast, in your face, & can score. Our forward group now really comes at you in waves. There's no break. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Strawbone Posted February 1 Popular Post Share Posted February 1 Holy shit I still can’t believe we swapped Kuzy for Lindholm! Never mind the other pieces, this makes the Canucks so much better now. I can’t wait for the All-Star break to be over. 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
