I know VAN fans love Kuzy, and he had a great year last year (while shooting at an insanely high, unsustainable percentage)...but with his current play...he ain't getting anywhere close to that return LOLOL

Also, what's even funnier is you are saying that Lindholm and Kuzy have similar value...yes one is a rental and other has a year left with retention, but that isn't even close

I'd love Kuzmenko but the Isles simply can't afford him without money going back some place

NJD, NYI and the Flames all ACCEPT!!! Not because it's fair value, but because they all want to see the Canucks succeed.

I don’t think islanders are interested in Kuzmenko.
And trading a first round pick is a big mistakes for the Canucks.

Let me just get this straight, the isles move basically the same package and they get Kuzmenko while the canucks get Lindholm? Isles will just skip VAN pick up Lindholm themselves and CGY won’t deal him to a division rival.
