canucks curse Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 soderstrom for Aman (has shown he can play in the NHL playoffs and kill penalties) soderstrom for podkolzin seems pretty fair, podz and Aman have both done more at an n hl level and we have a glut of wingers and Cs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker67 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 I do recall me really wanting the Canucks to draft Soderstrom at the 2019 Draft, but the Canucks selected Vasil Slovkolzshen. instead, or at least that's who Smyl took. I am a bit confused by this trade, though, if it were to happen. The Canucks have Willander, McWard, and Woo developing at RD. They just traded for Desharnais as well, who seems to just be getting his NHL feet wet. Adding another inexperienced RD to the team, can he be relied on as a regular next season? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flickyoursedin Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Getting Sprong has made one of Karlsson, Aman and Podkolzin on the chopping block. If you can get something for either guy then let’s make a deal. Does this guy have an NHL future though? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately Woo may very well have stalled and McWard doesn't have huge upside as far as Top4 goes. Higher ceiling RHD prospects we should be all over. We can trade out our probably 3rd pairing guys later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Money Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 23 minutes ago, Bure_Pavel said: Podz + for Soderstrom makes sense. They drafted some high end Russians in 2023. Yeah, this seems like a natural fit. Podz has upside for them, as VS would for us. Not even sure it would be much of a plus. Maybe Podz + Juulsen? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandmaster Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 We trade our 10th in Pods for their 11th. We could use more young depth with a future on D Even trade to me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can do 1 for 1 even better. Edited July 25 by Bure_Pavel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Nucker67 Posted July 25 Popular Post Share Posted July 25 Wouldn't Utah have to add? Podz has played 137 NHL games, compared to Soderstrom's 53. Podz also accumulated 35 points in those games and added a couple of playoff games to his resume. Soderstrom hasn't done much at the NHL level yet. 1 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 I wanted him at the draft. Would be pretty funny to see him get traded for Podz. But the thing is, we have Hronek, Myers, Desharnais and Juulsen on the right side already. With Hughes, Soucy, and Forbort on the left side. That's excluding some of the AHLers that may get looks like Brisebois, Hirose, McWard, Friedman, Woo, and Wolanin. Wolanin I thought looked quite strong last training camp too.

Wilbur Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 He needs to clear waivers, no? Soderstrom's value should be at an all-time low. IMO, Podkolzin has more value as he's done more at the NHL level. I'm not against taking a chance on him, but the cost has to be low. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn’t a player that would make our team right away. Maybe as a last resort in an emergency fill as a last pairing. He would compete for Myers and Deharnais job down the road. Let him cook with our baby Canucks for a year. I hate to say it but we have given Pods a lot of opportunities and he seems like he will never be a regular fixture with the big club.

Nucker67 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Remember when the Canucks had all of these Russians? Kravtsov Kuzmenko Zadorov Mikheyev Podkolzin Maybe not at the same time, but fairly recently. If Podz leaves, they'll have none left (except for developing Kirill Kudryavtsev) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, their trajectories are really really similar. Id preferably want to keep Podz though, he's on a cheap contract and we are gonna need that down the road even if he's just a role player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could make the same argument about Soderstrom, Coyotes gave him lots of opportunities and seems like he'll never be a regular fixture in the NHL. And that's on a team with a lot more openings for him to prove himself than Podz had here. We act like we were riding Podz out there with Pettersson or Miller regularly. Lol. Is Sodestrom waiver eligible next year? He's 23, I forget when you start to become waiver eligible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pods has been given more than double the opportunities. Also, it’s well known that defenders take longer to develop.
