Thread: Fixing the D

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lambchopz</b></div><div>His production is really impressive, but he likely won’t ever be anything more than a good 2nd pair guy who quarterbacks a PP. Theodore is an elite d man, and by most is considered at worst a top 15 guy. His contract is very good as well. If he were to be available, I think the ask would be absolutely insane (Eichel level I’d expect. Eichel as a player held more value but also his contract was twice as much, and his injuries left some concerns). I wouldn’t be shocked if, in a situation where Vegas ever wanted to move Theodore, they’d want Rathbone + Podkolzin + 1st, and maybe more on top of that</div></div>

That's a very fair opinion. My original thought was Rathbone + Hoglander + 1st + 3rd. What would you think of that? Obviously this is keeping in mind the cap constraints of Vegas.

Thanks for the thoughtful response it's much appreciated.

The value might not be spot on but I think you guys are under valuing Rathbone.
He's 22yrs old and leads the AHL in pts/game for dmen with over 20gp.

Thread: 2015 NHL Draft

There was 15 Legit stars from this 1 draft, and another 20+ quality players.
the depth and quality of this draft was unreal and to think they all are 24-26 and just entering their prime years.
Goal depth and RD depth was weaker in this draft but LD and forwards were STRONG.

Thread: Rathbone JBD swap

JBD would be a nice prospect for Van to get but Ottawa already has Chabot, Sanderson, Brannstrom as young LHD so I don't see them having a need for Rathbone.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BadBadgers</b></div><div>How would you look to bring him in</div></div>

Most likely through a Boeser or Garland trade. I think JBD, a 2023 protected first would get one of them. Rathbone is pretty
Valuable as he isn’t gonna cost that much

why would we do Vegas a favour and give them our 2nd highest scoring even strength player on a team friendly deal retained while taking a cap dump back and a 3C

Thread: Not Jim Benning

i'd keep the 2nd round pick in this draft considering how deep it is, I wouldn't give up on Dickinson yet he could still be useful, we'd have to take some salary back from Dallas if they wanted Myers, and i'd rather get a cheaper option like Domi rather than go out and spend 5 mill on Rakell

Probably not going to get a 4th, might even have to buy him out or bury him, but dont lose hope, the sens gave us a 3rd for hamonic

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BadBadgers</b></div><div>Agreed. It's why I am happy we have our new FO. Benning would have absolutely taken this upturn in form as a reason to go all in and trade for another albatross contract. Hopefully, Rutherford and Allvin can look at the bigger picture</div></div>

If Benning were desperately trying to save his job, he most likely would have, but keep in mind the context there. JR and Allvin aren't going to have any problem looking at the bigger picture I guarantee

Thread: Push for the Playoffs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>Goalies dont have that much value to start and Demko isnt even a top 10 goalie in the league. Ill give you debatably 10th best. You also have to factor in Bloom, a potentially high 2nd in a deeper draft and getting rid of 6 mill in cap</div></div>

1. Say he is 10th, getting him for 4 more years for only 5m for a top 10 goalie is insane value. 2. The OP stated that this was if Vancouver did a rebuild, why would we need to dump 6m from Myers who has been a good top 4 RD for us this season if we are rebuilding/retooling when his contract expires in 2 years? Canucks don't see Myers as a cap dump.

You think 4 2nd's get you a top 10 goalie who is young and signed for 4x5?

Not good for Vancouver. There is no guarantee Portillo makes the NHL and an even slimmer chance he becomes the goalie Demko is. Floridas pick is a late first which has little value in this rather weak draft class

Oh yikes yikes yikes. Any trade that involves Demko requires either 1st OA draft pick or one of the acquiring team's top 2 roster players.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BadBadgers</b></div><div>Agree on Miller. I was going to include a trade for him but I couldn't really think of one so I just posted it like this. He is great and I love him but I really dont feel comfortable paying him a massive contract considering were not really contending yet.</div></div>

Same, Theres a chance that he becomes the next joe pavelski but the odds of that are slim, it would be like giving 6m to a Swedish winger to play with the sedins

Thread: Crossroads 1

You should do one where you trade both Miller and Boeser. You are bang on though, this team isn't a real contender. Or even close to it. Many Canuck fans see Budreau as this guy who made the team great but that's misleading. They are very streaky under Budreau. Started off with a huge run of wins and then Jan through March you were a 500 team. Then another streak in April. In both streaks you beat a lot of bad teams.

The reality is Benning put together a deeply flawed roster with major cap issues. Lots of bad contracts with term as well. I think moving those out and having a bad year next year (and should have been this year) and you would be on the path to be a contender the season after next. Jumping the gun on rebuilds is always a bad idea.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BadBadgers</b></div><div>What would be a Miller trade that would work with this roster? We could sign an outside FA to fill his top 9 spot</div></div>

I like the ideas, I think that the Dadonov thing is really smart, I think that as crazy as it sounds miller is more replaceable, we can have a top 6 without him, its the supporting pieces that we need. I think that if we were to pedal miller and get a young RD and a young middle 6 forward and a 1st we should be looking good. I really like the fillerteam idea, lets just have it be seattle because theyre the new guys
