Holl is untradeable
- Nighthawk


If Phaneuf got traded (twice) then Holl is tradeable.

(Yes I know he was traded three times but from Calgary to Toronto he wasn't considered an anchor)

You are the expert .

Just trying to keep up with you. I think I’ll wait & see how he does replacing a high maintenance 3m plug.

What if, and hear me out, Dermott plays better than a plug?!

I mean, if Canucks gave up a 3rd maybe in the off season you can get a 3rd back?

- Aaron_85


Unless Benning or Chia are hired , that will not happen .

Serious question if he was as good as everyone here is expecting why did Leafs move him and take on an older more expensive Gio as a rental?

You would find a way to hold on. You know as well as I do there was a huge high five with Leaf fans when this trade happened.

We just bought a Lada from you guys.

It's been a more even 2nd period.

Buffalo has had better chances

It's remarkable how the Canucks players are satisfied to just watch the other team play hockey.

Jim Benning is a good hockey man. Loved it, what I don't love is how poor the D is all of a sudden.

The system changed to scoring more goals. Just too bad the defence changed to allowing more as well.

Brad Shaw is a D whisperer. Unfortunately, all the D are cottonheaded ninnymuggins.

Well, Dermott was beaten on the depth chart by Liljegren and Sandin. Dermott is paid more than them and plays the left side.

Dermott needed to go to make cap space and he isn't as young as the other two dmen. To be fair, leaf fans wanted anything for his cap to be gone so a 3rd was a win in many eyes.

He was definitely serviceable in the line up but how do you beat Rielly and Muzzin on the left side? He rotated in and out in the bottom pair and time ran out for him to take a top spot.

I would like to see how he does with more opportunity.

Corey Hirsch, now that is an idiot.
He thinks Canucks can dump Halak to Vegas and get rid of his cap charge for next season. Vegas in bigger cap trouble than the Canucks.

I don't hate them though . I am laughing at all this slurping being done over a benning type trade. This Dermott signing is the exact type of move that everyone here has hated for years.

So he was ranked 4 th RHD on a team with very suspect D . I mean Leafs D is terrible and he was ranked 4 th on that side. That is not very reassuring .

As I said before Leafs usually have the puck in the other end of the ice, that is not the case here in Vancouver.

I wouldn't call the leafs D "very suspect". They aren't a juggernaut defensive core but are decent and they got better with Gio.

Dermott will top out at a 4th guy with some special team work.

Alts got to love them .


You know you don't have to hide like a child , you can tell me that with your regular ID.

I can't help it if so many people care about what I say? Maybe you guys should just ignore me like I do with a number of people here.
