Okay obviously value is way off but the worst part is…. This new Canucks team you built is much worse

This looks like a nucks bruins mashup challenge 😂

Value is way off on Hawks trade.

Huh. Pearson, Dickinson, and maybe even chiasson would probably be buried in boston. So from a bruins perspective it kinda turns into all that for OEL and Miller. Obviously, OEL is a negative, and Miller is a big positive, but then the other positives are ridding themselves of Haula, Coyle, Wagner, and Moore. So from a lineup perspective, its Coyle, Debrusk, Reilly, Haula, Lazar out Miller, OEL, and maybe one of those guys in. Pretty close to even money. It’s at very least interesting. If coyle was playing a bit worse it would be a lot more interesting. That OEL contract is still scary.

It's suppose to be a weaker roster, and I know, we can debate the tobacco juice out of the big trade, I expect that opinions will be all over the place



You do realize that the Canucks are weaponizing their cap space by taking on Connolly's buried penalty right?



Chiasson would maybe get buried, but I doubt Pearson and Dickinson would. Miller is indeed suppose to be the positive to balance out the negative which is Ekman-Larsson. I agree Debrusk, Haula, and Coyle are all positives, but I would say that none of them are huge positives. John Moore and Chris Wagner are most definitely not positive assets if they are being buried in the minors, and Lazar is just a neutral throw in piece. I know the OEL contract is scary, that's why I made sure I sweetened the pot going to Boston with something to make them at least do a double take

I think you can even make the argument that coyle is a negative. He’s playing pretty well right now after his knee surgery, but last year was rough. Lazar is solid. It’s interesting. I’ll give you that.

Thank you, I'm glad I've managed to get you thinking

Except they’re not…

Please explain?

You first.

I'm sorry, but I honestly don't understand. If you look at the thread, it has Brett Connolly listed in the buried penalty section. I didn't make this thread with the intention of making Vancouver a win-now team this season

Maybe I misunderstood. I thought you meant you had heard rumors of Vancouver wanting to do this irl.

Oh no, I'm not basing this off of any rumours, it's purely hypothetical. As a Canucks fan, I wouldn't mind management going this route tbh

Chicago laughs at that offer like a hyena

Okay, maybe the 3rd round pick shouldn't be there, but at least I'm offering to take on Connolly
