Description
the third line is almost impossible to upgrade with the contracts they have in place. so i took a stab at making a 4th line better even it only be marginally better. the addition on the of Bear probably would be a stretch. ruhwedel has served his time her and needs to go. he is a serviceable 6/7 . but we need an upgrade from him.

Canucks should be happy to turn a 5th rounder into a 2nd rounder. I'm not sure their plans for Bear, as a player with only one more year of RFA rights, plus how poor the defense has been in Van.

Rutta is coming back within a week. He is the upgrade from Ruhwedel.

Value wise it might be a bit. Personally I'd want Blueger over Joshua or Cousins to center the 4th line. Bear has more value than Ruhwedel but the Canucks FO would probably be attracted to another bald crony to join Van.

I wouldn't, Bear is a good #5 who is still in RFA years. Carolina was forced to move him for less because of their cap situation and defensive depth. A 2nd + Ruhwedel for Bear is reasonable.

However, I can't see the Canucks wanting to swap Joshua for Blueger, unless the Penguins are willing to pay more for that. Joshua >> Blueger; younger, better, lesser cap hit, signed an extra year at league minimum. Penguins would have to add another early pick to make up the difference, especially considering Blueger is nothing but a cap dump for Vancouver.

Maybe

Bear
Joshua
3rd Round Pick

for

Blueger
Ruhdwhel
