Mendez and McIndoe (Athletic) suggesting Vegas could be in on Eichle - giving him the Kucherov (surgery in September and back just in time for the playoffs).

Makes some sense. Vegas won’t have much trouble finishing top 3 in the Pacific next season, even with a 17 man roster.

I think Kman is right Tkachuk and Monahan for Eichel

What are they going all in on? What's available?

With that defence, Canucks be getting top 10 pick anyways. Choose a defender this year and next and golden.

Exactly

Agree. Just any defender?

Getting a top 10 pick next year wouldn't be the worst thing.

Then sign no UFA D & play the kids instead.
Resign D from within & get the experience.

They will have to make a trade to get that, this team is on the cusp of greatness.

Benning did say he needed 2 more years, so it's quite possible.

Wonder what that trade would look like? Vegas has 13 F 6 D signed for next season. With pretty much no one to sign.

Vegas hands MAF to the Kraken plus some to select him. Free's up 7m.


Reilly, Glass, 1st, 2nd, Korzack?

They didn’t go into the coat, but yeah, it would be expensive. And, it would likely put them in a post Gillis type situation in a few years. No prospects, aging stars, no cap space.

Cause and effect. Give out term and aav to free agents who are now anchoring this team from being competitive, then live with the consequences. LE, Beagle, virtanen, roussell will continue to hold this team back from getting better and being better. Time to let those contracts expire and start fresh next season.

Buddy, I know this is going to be hard but can you get off Tom Macdonald's nuts for a little while? The horse died long ago and your posts will be better for it.

Best defensemen doesn't really have to do anything with being able to play defence anymore.

That criteria changed years ago, I will stand by my statement.

i'm cool with that idea.
i'm also good with bringing in some new blood this year...just shorter term deals 1-3 years max.

Whoever gets Eichsey wins the trade, unless it’s a Pettersson for Eichel type deal. As soon as one team is “adding pieces” the trade is a win for the acquiring team.

1 year deals to anyone they want to after Hughes and petey are signed, that works for me.

You are really starting to piss me off.
- Reubenkincade

🤷‍♂️ now you know how I feel reading Benning drivel over and over, and over, and over again.

So Quinn with the Norris in 2024, Luke 2025, first two brothers to win back to back Norris and both from the Canucks.

Tkatchuk is a stud.
Mony can still be a good 2C i reckon.

I have my doubts about Eichel's health and his ability to carry a line.
Also i don't think he'd do well under Sutter.

But i take your point that Eichel would be the most talented player in that trade scenario.

Wouldn't wanna mess up the management of the load. (by poking you in the cheeks)

Thanks Carol

Getting closer to actual Canucks stuff.

Loui to...I keep saying Detroit, but can't we bribe the Kraken with a pick. (maybe even the dreaded 2nd) Isn't this years draft a bit of a crap shoot? I'm thinking addition by subtraction. Might be nice to have room, to have cap space...(for two seconds, until they sign Petey and Mr. Hughes)

Pro Edler....(if he does a Spezza deal) Lower the TOI, and help the kids. Otherwise thank you for your service.

OLE is a N O from me, but what do I know.

Everything else....I guess we'll see where the chips fall, i guess.

Dang heats killin me.....could use some Snowflakes

Vegas is 100% exempt from the draft. It would need to be a trade.

The Chucky/Mono type deal is really Buffalo’s best scenario. Fewer pieces of higher quality. If they go multiple picks and B prospects it would be a disaster.
