I really like Jake also. I love the Shotgun tribute and I think he is a good young player.

My issue with the team is the D . It still needs fixing. I don't think slotting in Tryamkin and Rafferty would fix it and there is very little on the UFA market . That leaves the last option of trade. Who on Canucks have trade value . Brock or Jake?

I also don't think acquiring Ristolainen will help. The guys is terrible defensively.

No he is not . I heard those same things about him a few years back . I watched him play about 6 times this year and concentrated on him every time he stepped on the ice.

All parts of his game are just fine. He is tough , he hits a lot ( leads the team in hits), he plays in front of the net on PP1. His passing is on point. He is as effective as Edler in his own end and will get you 40 points.

Then why is Buffalo so willing to trade him? Maybe the other 76 games a year is different? Buffalo fans that watch him year round say he is bad in his own end.

Remember when Edler was -39 . Risto was -41 two years ago on a terrible team. He was -2 this year.

He had 6 goals 33 points in 69 games -2 . A 6'4 RHD that can hit like a truck and puts up 40 pts yearly .

I will take him any day TYVM

They want to shed salary since Dahlin is going to need to be paid this year and Risto is expendable because of Dahlin

They have refused offers on him before . Same as the speculation that Edler was on the block before.

I think it would need to be a significant deal . That is why I have Jake and a freak sized Tryamkin as part of the offer

I think they have 34 mil in cap space so they don't really need to shed salary.

Sources say the new IIHF transfer agreement could take a while.

It ’s delaying the #Canucks from signing Nils Hoglander.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


On the lighter side of the news some guy on Twitter ( Mr Booth ) had an official looking tweet on April 1 that Benning and the Canucks have agreed to part ways.

Twenty minutes later he received notification Aquilini blocked him

It’s newly reported but they’ve all already recovered.



“ Four additional members of the Ottawa Senators organization tested positive for COVID-19, the team announced Wednesday. All players and staff have been self-isolating since March 13, and everyone who tested positive has since recovered.

The newly reported cases are believed to be three players and one staff, according to TSN's Frank Seravalli.

With those cases factored in, there are now seven known cases among NHL players - five on the Senators and two on the Colorado Avalanche.

Meanwhile, the NHL on Tuesday reportedly extended its self-quarantine measures until at least April 15.”

I’ve got nothing against Leivo, he served a much needed purpose, he allowed Virtanen time to mature and find his NHL game, however, he’s there now, there’s no need for Leivo. If the organization chooses Leivo over Virtanen there’s no hope for this franchise until current coaches and management are gone.

Well except that this management/coaching has drafted/developed what looks like a pretty dam good core. Or do they only get credit for the donkey moves?

People complain about Myers being bad, If Ristolainen was on the team, it would be a shit show in here.
