I get it, ask high, but I dunno if they'd come down much We've already moved out one 1st, I'd really prefer not move out another let alone something equivalent to one on top Edited March 8 by Coconuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinot Noir Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 If we can’t add buchnevich don’t add anyone as they’ll be inconsequential to our quest. Get the play off experience and move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.Am.Ironman Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 4 hours ago, IBatch said: At the time, Lindholm was considered the best rental of the bunch. So the cost was always going to be high. Didn't have any issue with the team trading their first, started bringing that up in November as something they seriously need to consider to give this team a chance with what is likely our best cap window this year and next. Was hoping for something a little different, but can't fault them for going for it either. It's too early yet. Losing Hunter was tougher than the first and everything else, but it's the cost of business. Lindholm absolutely matches up with the cost of Horvat last year to the NYI. Our first is late, CAL got a better prospect. NYI got a higher first. Kuzmenko's cap hit next year is something that's hard to gauge. Given where this team is at. We will have two shots at it, this year and next. Then an OEL thing hanging over our heads. I'm not even sure how they will manage next season yet. We've got four cracks at it. Then a lull. Re-tooling period, or possibly scortched Earth, in that case, 3 cracks at it. Makes a lot of sense to trade for someone. Maybe the wrong guy. Won't know until all the dust settles. Yeah I don't disagree and I don't think they overpaid for Lindholm, I just don't think the Canucks are in a position to be pulling those moves. On paper Lindholm is what we need, but my bias is that deadline deals generally don't work out. The trade is still young, Lindholm may re-sign, Hunter B may not succeed at the next level, the first could be a bust, who knows. IMO, the current western conference standings are the most favourable for the canucks. Nucks vs Preds, DAL vs Vegas, Col vs WPG, EDM vs LAK. Fingers crossed.

COL and VGK look extremely strong. Too risky sacrificing that much future to try and matchup against those teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R3aL Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I thought Carolina would have gone for him more than genteel and we woulda gone for gentzuel Hoping we get Buchenvich somehow still but doesn't seem. likely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it works salary wise. think it’s close and we’d hVe to drop a player probably to minors and run one player sheit but I’ didn’t look at it. id absolutely love Acquiring buchnevich though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sell.the.team Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 50% retained makes a big difference too, especially for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWJC Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 With the way prizes are, if we make any moves I hope it’s for a player with another year on their contract eg. Vatrano - another year at 3.65 with no trade protection. Someone that we can expect as a top 6 F going into next season that we also retain as an asset instead of overpaying not to walk as a UFA. Love the idea of Toffoli but rental price is nuts. If any of these FA’s make it to UFA we can target then. Will be more options available around the league for trade then too. I have no issue adding where we can now at minimal damage to our asset pool and giving the boys a chance to continue to prove why they are amongst the upper class of the league.
