AnotherCanucksFan Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Hesitant to move Lindholm so quickly after acquiring him. Did we acquire him to always move him, since Kuzmenko wasn't producing / a fit anyway? I think Guentzal could be more problematic than we realize, because he's been with one team and system for 8 years. Is it realistic to expect him to fit in within 15 games before the playoffs? All new linemates, system, and style of play. He is 29 as well, so is that going to be an issue ( Lindholm is same age, but is that the same issue with him? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mando27 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I'd be hesitant to trade for anyone right now, unless it's a cheap depth deal. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there's other teams as well, but we could always circle back in the off season when it doesn't cost us assets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 13 minutes ago, Ghostsof1915 said: Does Jake play defence? Plays with Crosby. Probably doesn't have to. That line is so dominant they control the puck more than the opponent does. Also Crosby is near 60% in the dot. So they almost always start with the puck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ngoway Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 30 minutes ago, Honkin Hronek said: Guentzel would be a great add only if we're able to retain Lindholm as well + we don't give up any of Willander, Lekkerimäki, Hoglander, and Podkolzin. D-Petey ideally as well, but we can't just expect to give up nothing. Also moving a Lindholm for Guentzel while they're not the same player, seems just like a lateral move to me. We will very much need Lindholm in the playoffs but could also use Guentzel. Having both would really solidify that top 6, but I'm okay not getting Guentzel and going for the depth pieces instead since we know the cost to get Guentzel would be so high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure there is a way to retain Willander, Lekkerimaki, Hoglander, and Podkolzin while acquiring Guentzel. But it probably means the Canucks bite the bullet and move possible Raty, D-Petey and a pick. Another pick would be moved likely to get soem of that good ole third party retention.

Definitely, unless Rutherford/Allvin are able to pull off a miracle. I think that's why many of us would rather we stay away from Guentzel as we'd really be depleting our future assets as great of an add that he would be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 If we want to go deep in the playoffs, we need another top 6 forward without a doubt IMO. It may take too much in order to acquire one, however the prices today haven't seemed too outrageous IMO. I think JR/PA will pull the trigger on something.
