Canucks pass easily. Not giving up the two best players in the trade while also taking back Savard who’s awful

Dach is already injured, we don’t need injury Boqvist. Also, I keep Ylonen over Garland

They’re also so cap strapped that they can’t ice a full team. Also Savard isn’t awful just playing above his capabilities on the 1st pairing.

Garland takes a direct flight to Columbus in this scenario.

For Boqvist, who is the last thing we need

They can ice a full team, its under emergency conditions due to 4 guys being injured at a suboptimal time where none of them are out long enough for LTIR but all out enough to warrant an emergency exemption

A PP QB? I think that’s exactly what we need. Yes he is injury prone but I believe that’s why he would be available at this price. Don’t forget he’s only 23 and a former top 10 pick. We’re rebuilding, the risk could be worth the reward.

And because of their cap issues they cannot call up a player from the AHL to replace them.

Savard is awful. He’s been worse than Tyler Myers the last 3 seasons. Keep him, Vancouver doesn’t want him unless you’re giving us a valuable sweetener to take on his contract

Exactly, he is injury prone. We already have Guhle, Dach and Monahan

But it puts CBJ over the cap.

That and it’s awful value for the jackets

I wouldn't make the trade even if it was under the cap. But Boqvist has only played in 60% of the games over the past 3 seasons.

But they have the players, and have the emergency recall for this reason, so there is no reason to get killed twice in a trade
