Added to the Edler injury is how much the defence could still use him. Not in the capacity he is being used by TG.

I was looking to see teams that could possibly use Sutter. Boston came to mind. I'd guess that Van would have to take some salary back though.
Bergeron has taken 100 more draws the Krecji and 140 more then Kuraly.

Buffalo is they continue to compete could use him.

Do u really think trading a foundation player is the right move?

Gaudette had a great game last time out and Willie I mean Travis rewards him with luxury seats in the press box

Agreed kinda sucks, but not a big deal IMO. I think a day to watch from above has value as well. Granlund started off OK but has been fading, I think he's the new bubble guy.

Here i'm thinking that maybe TG gets the obvious and then the next game comes around and I think, wow he is in over his head.

I think trading two foundational pieces is a better move.

Poor Bo, has to play with one guy who can't stay on his feet, in Leipsic, and another who is invisible.
- Reubenkincade

The oddest part about this is during pre season TG himself said something as that Leipsic and Bo can't play together because they are both players that carry the puck. Bo isn't the best defensively. He should have two wingers that are better in their own zone to get the puck to him for him to move it out.

I personally would have rather seen Granlund take Leipsic's spot and Gaudette play 4LC. Gaudette is a better center then Granlund. Granlund is a better winger then Leipsic.

Taking a bad deal back for Sutter is stupid.


I have thought really hard about Edler. I like what he brings defensively and that is where it ends. You will probably pay between 5 to 6 mil for him and even though he is a minute muncher he is not worth that. If you could get him for 4 mil okay but that is very unlikely.

You still do have Tanev signed beyond next year . I think I would rather throw 11 mil towards Karlsson instead of spending on Edler .

Dan murphy just asked EP about playing with bb and goldy and EP said we are a good defensive line and there was a pause with a sheepish grin

Why would it be a bad deal?

Edler and Karlsson play opposite sides.

Vancouver isn't in cap troubles and probably won't be unless JB signs more LE's over the next 2-3 years. As you always say they have 30 million in cap space for next season. With a lot of ELC coming in as well.

His salary made sure of that, 1.3 for him is brutal.
- manvanfan

You've mentioned this a few times now, I keep seeing this Ben Hutton guy's contract and thinking that sustr would be a nice discount.

Really

You have OJ Hughes Briesbois Sautner Hutton that are LHD (MDZ and Pouliot should be gone next year. )

Having Karlsson Tanev Stecher as the RHD would balance out

They're ba-acck!

Pettersson and Boeser return, and will play together with Goldy tonight. That should be fun.
