[Trade] Canucks have acquired defenceman Mark Friedman and forward Ty Glover from the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for Jack Rathbone and Karel Plas

Really, this is a bunch of minor league players traded for each other. Doubtful this trade ever has any lasting effect on the NHL roster but a good move trading a player that needed a fresh start. The search for a steady eddy partner for Hughes continues.

Looking at Glover and thinking he has the most upside with his age and size.  Friedman doesn't turn the needle much as he hasn't shown much to turn anything with.

 

Pittsburgh trade?  Shocking.  Benning and Florida.  Allvin and Pittsburgh.  Gonna be a theme it seems amongst GMs

Definitely not the right attitude.  


Comes off as entitled.

 

The reality is other players kept passing him on the depth chart and it didn’t appear he was willing to put in the work.

 

I think his rookie AHL season may have gotten to his head.

Trading away 2 prospects for a an a journey man AHL player really highlights Vancouver's desperation to find affordable RD depth options.  

 

You could also look at drafting WIllander over Benson as another desperate move to fill a massive need. 

 

Garbage take is garbage.
