Yeah I’d guess around 5-6 remain

Miss the playoffs, win the last 4 games to hurt their draft position.

It is the way #mediocrity

Couple weeks back I said March 5th will be when they decide they are sellers

Not disagreeing with the final #’s, but you basically picked all the “easy” W’s here and this is anything but Canuck like. For example, they’ll beat Toronto and lose to Montreal, because you know.

We’ll never win a draft lottery spot anyway

If we do we'll probably pick the wrong guy.

I am not defending either player, they have both sucked for most of the last 2 seasons.

Edit: remember, I have stated that no one on this team is untouchable and if I could, I would trade every one of these hot garbage players, except Spencer Martin.
- Reubenkincade

You would keep Martin over Demko? That’s two game cameo really got you going

2 years from now, I would be surprised to see 5 players from this roster still on the team.
- Reubenkincade

We'll be thanking Benning.

My fear is that they’ll be on the bubble after the BUF game and not sell, and then go 0-7 in the next series…

My guess is 7-4-1 up to and including BUF
- 1970vintage

I have no doubt they will be sellers. Allvin seems like a smart dude

We'll be thanking Benning.

Benning was always playing the long game. He needed Aquilini to see the errors of his strategy and Alvin will reap the rewards

Drafted Juolevi over Chychrun, Virtanen over Nylander/Ehlers. Drafting guru! If we had Chychrun we never would have signed Myers or if we did our D would be huge (aside from Hughes)

Nylander would be our best winger (when JT is playing C?). A drafting guru would nail picks year after year, especially near the top of the draft.

They’ll probably move Dadanov(by adding a pick to him) and maybe Pacioretty.

I’ve seen both those names mentioned ever since the Eichel deal
- Nucker101

Reilly Smith as well is a large possibility

Benning whiffed badly early in the draft and had to try to buy players because his early picks weren't doing anything.

He gave out a lot of bad contracts. His coup de grace was the trade this summer. OEL has been decent and Garland has been good but that's a whole lot of cap for those 2 players and a 1st round draft pick. 5 more years at 7M.

Any trades yet?


I have never seen so much love and hype given to a group that has done SFA

lol one could assume with Rutherford but not sure what Alvin is scheming at the moment. Horvat, Boeser, Demko, Pettersson, Hughes, Hogs, Pods, will almost certainly all still be here and oh ya OEL lol. Garland, Motte, Myers, Halak, and a few others might be gone but I hope Garland stays. Next year is the kicker for Rutherford.

We'll be thanking Benning.
- Marwood

Yep you will be.

But Alvin and Rutherford will take the credit much in the way Burke did in Anaheim after Brian Murray built that 2007 cup team.

I'll take SFA over making a bad move every day.

Not hard to do when the previous regime set the bar at an all-time low.

👍🏻 They haven’t hurt the team yet so that’s a big win in Canucks land 🎉

Yep you will be.

Burke brought in 11 new players when they won that cup. #narratives

I have no idea who they are , just like most of the posters in here and next years top 10 prospects .
