Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Honestly not expecting much to happen. I think a minor move of Pedan or Subban the most likely. A defenseman prospect for a forward prospect deal. Burrows is possible to Montreal or the Rangers. Hansen would require a high return, a good prospect and a high pick. Not sure anyone will offer that, whi...

Yes everyone is panicking. :roll: More likely people are calling Elmer out for the buffoon he is. You having Ignitowski's back at every turn is kinda cute. Thing is your little theory doesn't add up to the smell test. He had no problem getting Bieksa ( I'm going down with the ship) or local boy Gar...

I wouldn't trade players for anything. If the offers aren't fair, I wouldn't jump. If some GM's are fishing for deals, let them fish somewhere else. No reason to help someone win a cup unless you get a fair deal. Rather not disrupt the team than just move people for the sake of moving people. Low ro...

Miller, Burrows, Gudbranson (depending on his injury) and Hansen should all be on table. Hansen is a UFA after this season, and will be 31. Don't want to make another Higgins contract mistake here. Now is the time to deal him Check that. Hansen is a UFA after next season, not this one. He is an exc...

Another loss on this trip and sell mode hits hard. Burrows to Mtl or NYR makes sense. Miller would make a great back up plan for someone, not sure who is interested. One of Hansen, Granlund or Baertschi. I'd want a first and a good prospect for Hansen, less for the others, but not a lot less. I kind...

Top ten things Claude Julian or Ken Hitchcock would do if hired as the new head coach of your Vancouver Canucks. 10. Drive Larsen and Megna to the airport 9. Try playing Trymakin in front of the net on the powerplay 8. Split up the Sedins 7. Take Sutter off the powerplay and make him a shutdown cent...

There is no push from the prospects to take NHL jobs. Maybe, big maybe, by September Boeser, or Virtanen can justify taking Burrows vacated RW spot. Other than dark horse surprises, no one else seems over ripe, or couldn't use at least a season in Utica. So, top nine wingers are likely Eriksson, D S...

Hold onto Hutton. Early in the season he was gliding everywhere and looked like crap. He seems to be playing with more speed now. I noticed last night he was pumping his legs more powerfully and moving his feet much faster than he did earlier this year. He can be a core piece if he plays like he did...

Always a chance the second amendment people stop him, now wouldn't that be ironic.

Market up big after weekend when Hillary cleared of further e-mail issues. Market says Hillary wins. You heard it here first. Hillary in a land slide. Big question is the House of Representatives (can the Alt-right hang on?), not likely that Senate is in play. Hope Republicans get destroyed so they ...

The absence of Ps doesn't make team team worse. It makes the depth worse. If they sign Skille instead, they obviously like him more. I can live with that. He looked okay in the preseason, and neither of the Ps are likely to turn into stars, but they likely score more than Skille. We'll see.

Claim both Ps. I think both are better than Etem. Send down Virtanen, waive Etem. Makes a competition between the two Ps. One slots in Rodin's place on Horvat's line. The other is 13th forward. Recall Virtanen and Stecher when injuries occur.

I just missed the 30th anniversary of the worse trade in Canucks history which happened on June 6, 1986. So I went outside and kicked a puppy to celebrate. Just wanted to pose an open question about the current young guns. Which player of the unproven ones would come back to haunt us the most if we ...

I have a hard time picking prospects since Rene Vydareny broke my heart. I was sure he'd be a Bobby Orr like star. Generally, I like the goalies and defensive prospects. Looks like lots of depth and potential in those positions. Besides BB Gun, there doesn't seem to be much potential for high end fo...
