But Patrick White has 1C Potential, and Ceci could be a 3D with Juolevi being a possible legit 1D. Sets us up to compete better in 3 years time rather than 5 or 6 years time.

I'm aware of that but Vessy is also the best college prospect and the other two were guys that were deemed expendable by their teams.

Both instances are risks but the Canucks moved better picks for players who although guaranteed to be able to play were not seen as top flight prospects or at least how I view it and why I was asking how you compared players.

Um No

Best College UFA, but not prospect.

Vessey was ranked 6th, behind players like Boeser and White.

Baertchi has higher pedigree than Vessey so they are comparable from a player stand point. One was a trade for a UFA and one was a trade for an RFA. It was a sh!t trade and it's a sh!t comparable

Fair enough I think a 3rd for Vessy's rights or a 2nd for Baertschi are both good risks.

I am not sold on the Vesey trade largely because I can't imagine a player would choose Buffalo when he can choose any team in the league to play for That being said, it's not the worst gamble, my original point was this fanbase would have a meltdown if we traded a 3rd and didn't sign the player.

Vessey signing with the Leafs to play with Mathews sounds like Justin Shultz 2.0 . I wonder how that turned out?

I didn't see that ranking tsn had him 8 with Connor ahead of him as the only other college player. White was 19 and Boeser 20.

I think Vessy's and Eichel are good buddies no? I understand what you are saying about fans female doging but I think many would feel it was a good gamble.

Are you joking? it would be apocalyptic in here! I suspect Phucker and his alter account Linden would even make an appearance Having Boeser and Stecher on our team sure didn't help us sign Cagulla

Basically it would go in these steps :

Vessey announces he is going to free agency .... He's good Benning should go after him !!!
Benning trades a 3rd vessey ...what a (frank)ing idiot Benning is, I can't believe he would trade for a UFA ?!?
Vessey signs with Canucks ....Benning is a (frank)ing genius !!!
Canucks trade vessey for less than market value ...Benning you idiot !!! (frank) sakes !!
Days after trade ....vessey had a poor two way game and Benning realized that good asset management

Take a chance on him. What could happen.....we suck this season? If he becomes a liability cut him loose quick. Just don't overpay.
