I'll play

Miller for Pesce
Garland for Hayes may need draft picks but I think they'd be thrilled to move hayes.
Sign Ryan Graves
Sign Nik Bjustad
Myers out after paying bonus to Chicago or Phoenix with the 1 mill real money but 6 mill cap hit for whatever

Kuz Petey Mikayev
Beau Hayes Boeser
Hoglander Bjustad Podkolzin
Dak Amen Studnicka

Hughes Pesce
Graves Hronek
Wolanin/Hirose/Brisebois/De Petey/Filip Gustivson cheap ufa

Dimmer
Silovs

Obviously 2 Center is weak after moving Miller but the de is wayyyyyyy better. Cap room to boot. Maybe dangle the 11th overall for Hanifin but I don't think thats even close to enough.

My wife does to. Hit snow coming home from Pike Mountain area yesterday. Was windy and cold up there, thank goodness they lifted the fire ban just before we got there.

Elliotte Friedman on the OEL buyout : Whether it is a defenseman, centre or winger, the Canucks have there eyes on some things, they needed the flexibility.

Like most of us figured the OEL buyout appears to be a prelude to something else. D and/or C makes the most sense but who knows?

I'm guessing they trade for an established D.

I get that these fantasy GM things are just for fun, but I think far far too much value is being put on our scrap heap. Guys like Podkolzin, Rathbone, Garland, Boeser, Hoglander are considered busts or at best reclamation projects outside of Vancouver. It's sad I know it's what there is to work with, but it's reality. Brining in valuable guys like Pesce via trade using our spare parts is pretty far reaching, IMHO.

They pretty much need to. Hopefully one still under a decent contract. The UFA market is a turd salad.

Pesce is an old UFA. Wrong guy to target

Teams were calling last year about Hogs and Rathbone but PA didn't like the return so you are wrong about none of them having value.

Half the league right now are tight against the cap so you have to get creative to make trades. This is not a Canuck thing only. I read there are at least 4 or 5 more buyouts going to happen this week and teams will be walking away from players like Bear and not qualifying them. There was 4 last week including Keifer Bellows a first round pick.

He isn't UFA yet.

Contrary to my post, the guy right below him looked pretty good in the playoffs and is making a mere 762K next year, so maybe there is hope for our scrap heap haha. Jalen Chatfield.

Ideally you'd get someone 2-3 years younger. Pay accordingly.

Faber just did a piece on Simashev. He is/was the guy I would have targeted even before this video.

Of course he isn’t presently. But he is a ufa next summer. Idiotic target!

Exactly what we need a big, stay at home ,tough Dman on ELC. We have enough elves that can move the puck.

He also has a worse shot than Stetcher….the player seems fine but I can’t see them taking a Russian given his contract and Putin’s baby d!ck war
