Looks like no trades until after the break going into the deadline. TBH it would suck to get traded during a mom’s trip lol

  2. Darn, I was hopeing for a Decent Garland trade. Since his BFF hughes left guy just doesn’t seem to be on point.

  3. As it currently stands – we haven’t even tickled the toenail of a rebuild. We need wayyyy more 1st round picks and prospects with upside.

    I hate to say it but I don’t see how this rebuild happens without trading Hronek. He’s our most valuable piece that doesn’t fit our timeline. Garland and Boesers value is shrinking by the day (boesers is non existent) as is Demko’s

  4. Kane trade is must, then even tho I love him Blueger has great value and is UFA and then it would be nice to get some assets for DeBrusk and Garland

  6. Logistically speaking, it would be a pretty bad look to do it during the mom’s trip as well.

  7. I didn’t expect a team wanting to pay Kane 400k over the break. All I know is him n Garland, plus the other movable players better be gone late February.

  8. I think Blueger is probably low key one of our best pieces, but he’ll be in the Olympics, so no incentive for an acquiring team to pick him up early.

  11. Hopefully that trade is likely to happen, but wondering who else gets moved before the deadline. They also have a SELTIR they could use if needed.

  12. I think it’s reasonable to assume ownership doesn’t wanna take a bad contract back. Paying 50% for Kane in a contract year (presumably full effort from here out) and being able to free up extra cap while doing it is not a tough choice for most GM’s.

    The Canucks need to do what they’ve seemingly never been willing to do. Use the cap space to get assets. Unfortunately that costs money. The team is looking at paying millions for a 2nd or 3rd round pick. If they won’t do that, it’s a bad sign moving forward.

    Not sure they’ve fully paid off the new seats yet?

  13. we could trade him into a volcano if no ones interested. Id be very ok with us just sitting him and eating the money. guys a waste of ice time for someone that could have a future ithrough development mo.

  14. Im not sure if we’ll see an early Kane move

    He’s more likely to be a few teams backup plan, not their first choice

  15. I would be thrilled if final 2 games before the Olympic break are the end of the Kane in a Canucks jersey era.

  16. This management can’t get trades done without agents handholding unless theyre giving away a first round pick.

  17. Any chance a desparate team like Edmonton would take on Demko next season when he’s back and healthy? Normally I wouldn’t like trading within the division, but we aren’t going to be good for at least another 4-5 years, so what’s the risk? It would be a huge cap dump to say the least and the Oilers have to bring in a notable tendie or risk losing mcderp

  18. We aren’t very good at this whole rebuilding thing. Heck this can barely even be considered a hybrid re-tool at this point. Just sucking to suck lol

  19. Hate to wish injuries on anyone, but if some big names go down at the Olympics Kane might become a big panic move desirable

  20. Glad they’re holding off until post olympics. We’ll get more closer to TDL.

    I expect to hear about all of our plans for UFAs post olympics.

  22. Kane was always going to. Be a TD move due to us retaining 50% of the cheapest value lest on the contract when our trading partner has the most accumulated cap space saved up

  24. 2027 Draft picks please. Sergei Skvortsov and Nazar Privalov one or both need to be on the Canucks radar.

  25. With Garland his contract will likely look a lot better with the cap increases. If he returns to his pre slump form which is a reasonable bet, thats a pretty good cap hit to pay for a guy like this with the cash influx and rising costs that people will see in free agency. But yeah that one seems like more of an off-season draft day type move.
