That 1 might draw Vantels interest

Truthfully I am not going to open them

Canucks should walk away from Toffoli. Benning trades a second and Madden for rental Toffoli . A page taken from the guru Mike Gillis. a second for Carney . A second for Roy

Sign Jake Marky and Tanev and everything is honky dory .

That will give us a full year to start worrying about next years cap issues.

Only costs money. Moving out an asset if done right. I like Toffoli & he’s good to have in the PO wars.

Bit of a leap of assumption,

1st off as you stated Benning doesn't have to do anything, and he most certainly does not have Marwood on his mind. Marwood is making an opinionated statement based on the cap situation the Canucks are in. Yes he can do absolutely nothing and in 2 years time be screwed with upcoming contracts or having players walk for nothing whatsoever, really poor asset management.
This is the whole semantics piece between cap issues and no cap issues, I don't know why it has to go back and forth with such closed mindedness.

2nd, I personally do not believe Jake is anywhere near Boeser on a depth chart, Boeser is the most valuable trading asset Canucks have. He will fetch at least a 1st round pick, Virtanen would fetch a late 2nd or 3rd.

And you can bet dollars to donuts that there will be a lot of criticism of Benning trading Boeser (a young valuable skilled player) because the Canucks are pressed up against the cap.

And I am a fan of Benning, but some contracts have pushed the cap issue and know he needs to be creative and proactive to keep improving the team.

i generally agree.

i will say that i'm not surprised that brock is in play. i don't mind them exploring the market. it doesn't mean that he has to get traded. you do a deal if it's right. if you want substance back, you have to give up quality.

anyway, if he does get traded, it has to be for a player that you can plug into the lineup now. simply put, it can't be for draft picks. i know that i've been a draft picks guy but now that they're at the playoff level, they can't give up young core for future picks.

that would be 1 step forward, 2 steps back. if he is to be moved, it has to be to fix problem areas on the roster i.e. the defense.

if he is traded for pick(s), it shows that it was merely a cap move and solidifies my opinion of benning.

Truthfully I am not going to open them

They are still popping up faster than i could post them lol.

He’s popular as feck

Gotta agree

- Nighthawk

Of course he is. He is much better than Boeser . But this way Jim can prove to the fan base he has the cap under control. Why try to upgrade when you can bring back the exact same team ?

carney was either burke or nonis.

and those teams were playoff teams before they traded their picks.

I’ll post somewhat reasonable Boeser offers

A couple of details from the Twitterverse on Return to Play:

From Frank Seravalli of TSN: "Hearing #NHLPA membership voted 502-135 in favor of ratifying full CBA and RTP package. That's nearly 79 per cent in favor."

Also, players' deadline to opt out of the summer tournament will be Monday at 2 p.m. PT.

And paraphrasing Thomas Drance (and me) — the trade freeze is still on for all teams in Return to Play. No player movement can happen for months. With everything he has on his plate right now, it's highly unlikely that Jim Benning is spending his evenings drawing out trade scenarios for Brock Boeser or anybody else.

On the premise there is Boeser moving...

Scoring top 6 RW’s are in high demand.

He will fetch a good to great return with many teams interested creating a sellers market.

We have a schedule!

Games will start August 1, as we'd previously been told.

Canucks/Wild starts August 2:

Let us have our Boesser rumours, Carol. It's either that or politics (personal and otherwise.). 😁😉

All good but nothing stops teams calling. Teams can still make offers or kick tires.

Who knows where RD gets news or if even legit.

Didn't like the Domi trade and I don't think Canucks would trade Boeser to Edmonton.

If you see a package for a young guy like Montour or another Dman let me know

Something like Boeser and Rafferty for Montour and Samielsson

You need to include the whole post to to keep in context the point of flexibility.

Please explain the bolded. Sorry, I thought that might be clear with using the confused emoji.

Well when I get the job, you can be the Minister of Justice. I'm sure Lordy will certainly get on board then. 😉

He has publicly stated, a number of times, that he wants to get back that 1st. We'll see.

But there's a massive new document outlining what will happen over the next few weeks and also the next few years that has just been released. There's so much real stuff to talk about!

How 'bout this tweet from Brennan Klak of TSN1260 in Edmonton. Based on that, sounds like the 2020 first-rounder now belongs to New Jersey.

'According to the NHL, if you are playing in a qualifying series, you have officially "made the postseason", which will in turn effect a few trades.'

I'd like to apply for Minister of Agriculture.
