Sold.

I would like to use that pick to take the Russian defenders that knocks people over. I believe he's top pairing on the best MHL team with that offensive guy Duda.

Arytom Barabosha or however it it spelt.

Cassie Campbell might be a good fit there...

Canucks are in a position where they basically need to pull off a couple of home runs. Either by drafting great or making a steal of a trade.


The type of trade that looks okay in the moment but turns out to be a steal where you get a long term core player and didn’t give up a high pick or long term core player in return.

Pack up Motte-Garland-3rd and get a bloody RHD that can move the puck and shoot.

Toss in Myers as a sweetener...

lol

I wouldnt be surprised if they wait until summer on any non-UFA, but the one he has said is clear space. Generally means no one a over 5 mil is safe now or in the summer other than whoever they identitfy as core which is anyones guess imo

Some of the house cleaning will definitely have to wait for the summer.

I could be wrong here, but I feel like GM’s catch draft/UFA fever during the summer so moving players out for prospects/picks then is more difficult than it is at the TDL when contending teams will trade a draft pick for Hagg or a first + for Chiarot

I think I would rather the team put in a claim for Phillipe Myers, than trade for Dermott. Use Motte for acquiring a different player/pick.

Similar to Dermott, is he really as good as he ever is going to be? Chychrun is having a garbage year, arguably worse than Dunn, everyone seems to still hold him in high regard yet its his first year playing top pair.
- neem55

I think you answered your own question. Chychrun at his worst is as good as Dunn is at his best.

Top 4 generally have a pretty equal level of competition, bottom pairing is usually a noticeable drop off in level of competition.

Dunn still doesn't play 20 minutes a night in Seattle where as Jakob is playing 22 minutes a night and played over 20 a night except for his first year.

The Canucks needs to spend more money on right shot defenders that aren't any good?

He played against weaker competion last year, is struggling against top lines now. I think hes better too, just think Dunn has room to grow yet.

Yeah, apples to oranges. I think Dunn is a good enough player when he was used like he was in STL but I can see Chychrun playing a bigger role on a good team

The Canucks will pummel the Sabres and everyone will be celebrating the playoffs again and worried about which allstar might be torn away from the team when it's at its peak of competitiveness.
