The Bubbles Hargraves and Chef Dud review every GM move thread

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

There's sixty nine ways to get it figured out. Or is that 96. I guess it don't matter. Well sometimes.

I’m assuming this was Fred’s idea to move this over here. :sly:

It’s early days yet.
Last year was no different. Maybe Barrie can stay in toilet rather than try and come home as well
We are OK with Juolevi, Tryamkin, Woo, Rathbone, Utonen snd a slew of Utican D in the pipeline.

What the organization needs is either one of those to take another step in their development and be knocking on the door or else move an asset or 2 and acquire a dman with top end potential. I can see a move that includes Gaudette being one that would make sense

I like Barrie as a player but I think that would be a poor signing. He’s an all offence d man and good at it but he’s not very good at actually defending. I think having to spilt PP duties with Hughes would be a poor use of funds.

They’ve got to get Demko into 30 games this year. Markstrom will want a raise into the 5 - 6 million range with term. I’m not sure I want to commit that money to Marky long term. I like him but I like the kid too. Just need to see a lot more. He will be cheap labour. Sign a vet roll with him and spend the money on Tanev’s replacement.

The D in Utica are looking very good, I expect a few promotions. I think the Canucks are kicking tires on moving Stecher, there are rumblings. I think the Canucks want to resign pending UFA Tanev. Move Benn back to the right side and bring up Juolevi.

I wonder if dangling Stecher is enough to get rid of Eriksson or half his contract? Winnipeg is desperate for right side D-men

Keep Tanev, he looks great with Hughes
Move Stecher for picks or prospect
We got good D in the wings, replacing Stech with an entry level from within is no problem
Will have to move one of the Goalies soon (Expansion draft)
I say we end up moving Marky for a 1st round pick. Now I’d not the time.
It explains why Benning is drafting and signing goalies everywhere
We might have to dangle Gaudette to get rid of Eriksso, but hoping Sutter can stay healthy, have a good year and move him instead

Markstrom isn’t getting a 1st.

Stecher, sure move him but not yet. Not one of the kids is ready yet. Give it a month or two.

I love Tanev more than most but he’s always hurt. You can’t count on him.

Gaudette won’t be near enough to move Eriksson. Better off to develop the kid instead of the nonsense of parking him for seven straight games.

Benning is going to do splendidly when it comes to the eventual trading of one of our two goalies.
