He is a player that Van still lacks. The forward disregard for his own life wrecking ball in the bottom 6. A bigger version of Tyler Motte.

Source - UFA Valeri Nichushkin looking to stay in NHL and show last season was an aberration, teams have called his agents to check on his intentions. As of now #Canucks have not called.


Put that rumour to rest

Still good interest in Ben Hutton on the market but as of this morning the #Canucks are still in the mix for Hutton.


Keeping the band together

#Canucks showed interest in D Patrik Nemeth but are no longer in mix to land him.



Sorry Nucker

You know who I haven't heard anyone mention in any rumour yet is Michael Ferland. I haven't seen a single mention of him in any rumour to any team.

I don't think Benning has Nitsushkin or Sekera on the radar thank God
- VANTEL

I would give Nichushkin a chance to make it out of camp, if not bye. Definitely a pass on Sekera. The Oilers and their fans way over-valued him and had him pegged as a 3 before he was hurt multiple times. He was a 4-5 at best in my opinion. After all the injuries, Tanev 2.0+.

Myers, Nyquist, Benn

- manvanfan

Yeah, that't surprising. Was expecting to hear his name a lot around the league. Maybe the Canes are going to keep him?

Tanev could get moved too
- Nucker101

What do you think is more likely, Tanev getting traded or Tanev signing an extension?

Can you blame him after the way Bieska mis-pronounced his name?

Traded.



Myers/Benn/Rafferty in

Tanev/Hutton/Pouliot out

One more year of JB at the helm.

FA is the GM.

Traded.

I’m not buying it. Tanev, Edler, Stecher, (reportedly) Hutton, Biega, Sautner, BrisBoise...

Hughes for a full season, maybe Joulevi at some point, probably Myers.

Jordie Benn isn’t a “Top 4” D

Still looks a lot like the worst D in the league from the past two years.

I'd take advice about defencemen from Nuck4u before I listen to what you have to say about them.

I think extension. Edler re-signs. Tanev the same. They are both career Canucks.

Edler Tanev
Hughes Stecher

As a top 4 it's a middle of the road top 4 in the league. IF they can all stay healthy for 70 games of the season.

Good argument

There isnt much to it, i just suspect he wants to be here for the long haul.

This has been a good team when Edler and Tanev play. Hence the need for depth.
