Deal : anyone posting to sign Staal Lucic or Hamhuis gets a one year ban.

How did my man Hamhuis end up in there









joking









no I'm not










I'm so conflicted

Try selling that to a fan base. Benning will run himself out of town. ( unless they bring a 6 th hotdog also)

Good, then they might truly start a rebuild.

back to square one

Serious question why would you ( Canucks) want to keep the same top three( Edler Tanev and Hamhuis ) that has won four playoff games in five years. General question, not aimed at you.

To much money invested in jerseys?

I'd trade Edler at the draft and not answer phone calls from Hamhuis or his agent.

Really?

Im not sure if this is missing the or not, but i wouldn't be upset if that's the moves he made.

Sedin/Sedin/Erikson
Hansen/Sutter/Rodin
Sven/Bo/JV
Dorsett/Granlund/Burrows
McCann

Edler/Tanev
Hutton/Hamhuis
Sbisa/Tryamkin
Larsen

We take a top 5 pick, add it to the cupboards, keep our prospects, add some depth and continue on.
Isn't this the patience process that most on here were insisting we needed to follow?

Those are not impressive numbers for the SEL

For a 19 year old? explain yourself.....

To put it in perspective Jacob Larsson who the Ducks took 27th overall had 14 pts as a 19 year old.

Gabriel Carlsson taken 29th overall and on the same team had 9 pts.

Joel Eriksson Ek, a very good prospect taken last year at 20th overall and a forward only had 15 points.

The positive thing so far is we are getting closer to July first and we have only extended one player so far.

I said a few weeks ago I would like Canucks to target Shaw . Brouwer and McGinn are two more on the radar.

We should be getting a really decent forward at the draft this year and Boeser might be ready next year. No need to lock in to a high priced contract like Ericsson .

Exactly.
Vrbata can be replaced with a towel
Hamhuis is not owed a contract (Pedan needs a spot)
See what happens, worse case we draft top 5 again next year, OH the horror.

Benning needs to find at least 1 defense-man who can play in the top 4 and no I don't think that should be Tryamkin or Larsson.

You need to step away from the glue.

Your top 6 D last year had a combined 20 goals , two fights , and about 200 hits.They have combined for 12 playoff wins combined for the last five years.

Sorry man that is a Sh1t D roster you made

It would get us a top 5 pick without tanking, so in the words of Shanahan, we'd earn it.

Edit: the Sedins might also ask for a trade.

Brouwer playing in his 8th straight game 7 is a ridiculous stat

Yes. But although i'm adamantly anti-tank, I don't expect the Canucks to make the playoffs next year. I know you think there were extenuating circumstances this season and we'll be improved next year, but i don't.

I expect a slow, measured improvement while we stock up prospects and slowly turn the ship around.

I agree . Tryamkin should be playing bottom pair until his game improves and Hutton should be learning with MCCann and Virtanen

If you keep sending out the same losing roster you will absolutely lose. You have a couple of trade pieces. You have about 25 million in cap space. There are teams hard against the cap . We have a top draft pick coming and the answer is bring back Hamhuis?
