Does this player make the team better when he gets here? Sure does.

Does this player make the team better next season? Yes he does.

Win now.
- manvanfan

He’s injured right now so maybe they stick him on LTIR for team tank

So we agree it's a net positive move that improves the team.
Noted.
That still doesn't mean they're trying to 'win now' with the trade.
- dbot

So explain to me how this makes the team worse? Or give the team more potential value in the future?

One season left before he's looking for a probable significant raise.
- boonerbuck

He can have that Myers money.

That’s not bad in the scheme of things.

Just doing the Bo tree.

Funny how fast fans criticize knowing full well young RHD are rare to get. Drafting them isn’t easy & risk comes with it let alone the years to develop.

What will Fabbro fetch or is the ask?
He’s been a big disappointment.

So just abandon the draft model winning teams use for depth, talent , and cap space out of fear?
This team is a mess and they are destroying the fanbase along with it.
Fans are now afraid of drafting, regardless of the GM of this team...

- carsonagenic

They still have a most likely top 7 overall pick. For now….

A team 6th from the bottom making win now moves still

Also with no cap space again next season to start with Something they talked about doing for a year now.
- manvanfan

Hardly a win now. You see our D? 😂

Hronek > Juolevi.

What the actual (frank).. ugh, that's an annoying trade. Use the picks man!

(frank) the picks.
We're going all in now that we have Hronek.
Playoff's here we come!

#Canucks GM Allvin: "We are excited to add a 25yr-old right-shot D who handles the puck well & possesses a strong 2-way game. He has steadily progressed throughout his time in DET to show he is a top pairing D. We are happy to continue to add younger pieces to build (our) core."

He doesn't play top pairing in Detroit. They paid the price for a top pair defender that is a 2nd pair defender

Hronek > Juolevi.
- dbot

Quinn Hughes > Hronek +Juolevi

It doesn't change the price of the value the Canucks a team that is sitting 6th from the bottom just paid. Which was an overpayment at current status

What the actual (frank).. ugh, that's an annoying trade. Use the picks man!
- NewYorkNuck

Start dumping wingers for picks now. That at least would make this worth it

This is not a win now move.
This is a safe bet on a player with some term for a lottery ticket.
It's consistent with their approach of late.
- dbot

Totally agree. The 1st/2nd is the price fans like or not. It’s only 1 move in the process to compete.

RHD was sad sack on all accounts.

Myers is a goner cannot wait.

The Canucks have a lot of irons in the fire. Expecting more to come over (maybe today?) over the next 46 hours.

If they draft Reinbacher and now have Hronek this improves, significantly, that backend.

Hronek could be the best of that list too.
- SMP8719

He already is til proven otherwise.
Isn’t it so ironic fans cry for RHD but complain when it happens.

#TheFickleIsAlive&Well

Canucks twitter is having a meltdown
- NorthNuck

Link pls lol

Unless Van plan on recouping one of those picks going to Detroit in another trade, I really don't like this deal.

We finally have our right side D man to play with Quinn. Like the player, hate the cost. Per Pagnotta Vancouver has several irons in the fire so lets hope we can move out some money and regain some picks.
- claygolf83

Not sure defensively he fits with QH... More likely second pair.

Here we go down the old "2 things can be true at the same time" road.

• Filip Hronek is a good player having a very good year. RHD cost a lot and VAN doesn't have any good ones.

• VAN moving high picks for a 25-year-old is.. confusing.

I want a rebuild, and we actually had an extra 1st rounder for the first time in a long time. As well as the potential to add more picks.
Except this team just couldn't handle having that kind of change in their pocket and went kid in a candy store instead.
I hope NYI doesn't give up their pick and it is top5 next year now...
- carsonagenic

Rebuild..? What gave you the idea they ever were doing that?

Though very surprised at the move. Not sure why Wings wanted it now and why Canucks couldn’t wait until draft. Player prices go down and pick prices go up then more so than TDL.

Anyway, Canucks finally get someone for QH. That 1st or 2nd were 5 years away from becoming that if ever.

One season left before he's looking for a probable significant raise.
- boonerbuck

Top minutes here he probably achieves that

I don’t hate it at all, providing it’s the Islanders pick…LOL! A 25 year old right shot dman fits perfectly in a five year window for Pettersson, Hughes and the player they pick 1-6th overall.

I suspect there’s more coming though, trades…
- LeftCoaster

Us old guys gotta stick together lol

Nobody is paying a top 10 pick for Chychrun if you hadn't noticed.
- manvanfan

Well we paid one for OEL lol so you never know

Gotta believe this will happen. 👍
