Komodo0921 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 It's clear that The Canucks still need to ad push back to the line up. Conor Garland (1.5 mil. retained) to Nashville for Yakov Trenin They get a 40-50 point producer at a reduced price tag.. We get a bottom six forward who is not known to produce much points wise but, will bring plenty of physicality and will drop the gloves. We also shave 1.7 million off the cap. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elias Pettersson Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I'd do that deal. If we can't get Kane, at least we get a big, strong two way forward who can also play centre and kill penalties and can drop the gloves as well if asked...

Miss Korea Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 His offensive skills never materialized but his defending is on point. Then again, I said that about Suter and he's looked anemic so far. As a bottom six, there's a lot to like here, but he has racked up a surprising number of penalty minutes despite not fighting much (one tilt last season). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping we don’t need to retain that much, but he’s a great trade target that would make us harder to play against. Looks like they’ve scratched Tomasino…so maybe a winger acquisition is imminent?

I'd prefer not to retain anything myself but, if a trade happens before next off season, salary retention would seem necessary. If management was willing to wait till the offseason, however....

I like this trade idea a lot but I can't see Nashville accepting this. Who knows though....... I do like the idea of Trenin playing on the 3rd line however and moving Suter to the wing.

He's perfect for the bottom six. Suter has to play with Garland and Beauvillier, so his numbers won't look very good. He is however at almost 60% in the faceoff circle, something he can control on his own. So, give him a winger like Trenin and maybe Hoglander on the other side and our 3rd line automatically improves drastically and won't be a weak lin any longer... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTramFan Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Yeah I really like this proposal. Trenin is a good fit this season and for the future too. I have seen some mention of Zadorov being interested in the Nucks too. Next season adding someone like Zadorov, plus another excellent bottom 6 player with size, like Noesen, would really balance this roster: Kuzmenko Pettersson Mikheyev DiGiuseppe Miller Boeser Hoglander Suter Lafferty Trenin Blueger Noesen (Joshua/Podz) Hughes Hronek Zadorov Cole Soucy Friedman (Hirose McWard) Demko (DeSmith) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reznor Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 I really didn't want to have to retain on Garland. I wouldn't so much mind retaining in the first year, but would prefer to have him completely off the books after that point if possible. I mean, they'd be getting a debatable top 6 guy in return for ultimately a really strong 4th liner. (He's playing on the 3rd on the Preds, but I feel we have the better team and he's most likely be forth on ours). Frankly, I'd rather have Garland - but due to his salary and the fact he wants out, this at least gives us a guy in return we could utilize - if even if a lesser manner. ...and those pk numbers are quite excellent. The cherry on top to our revised penalty kill. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this is why the Preds don't do this trade; especially without retaining Gar's salary cap. The Nucks want Trenen more than the Preds want Garland. They will require a sweetener. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 That team has like 6M in cap space, not many good forwards and a few good defencemen. Beauvillier + Myers for Fabbro We have to retain like 1-2M but Nashville get a free rental winger, and essentially swap Fabbro for Myers who has looked good lately.
