Thomas Drance is Wrong
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Knuckl3s</b></div><div>The team needs more depth too, no denying that
The question is whether or not Boudreau is a good playoff coach, or were the teams he had just not capable of winning a round because they didn't have the depth to do so. Hmm?
You can fairly claim this roster is less than good, but that doesn't mean it's a bottom 10 team. There is significant improvement needed for sure, but the team isn't trying to get itself out of the basement, they're right on the fringes of the playoff picture as is</div></div>
agreed,
I much appreciated debating with you and rocket,
thanks for staying civil and making good points, I feel like I have a better understanding of your side and hope you feel the same

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Knuckl3s</b></div><div>Of course the team needs to get deeper, of course the team needs to be less reliant on it's goalie, but having a top 9 with 8 good pieces and 2 good puck moving defenseman doesn't make for a poorly constructed roster, that's a significant enough of a foundation to build around and improve, and the Canucks did beat some better teams than they were, so it's not as cut and dry as you make it out to be. Sure, it's fair to say the team overachieved at certain points during Boudreau's run, but the weren't overachieving the entire time. The reality of the team isn't as bad as they were under Green</div></div>
I agree with you on your second point about how they were under and overachieving, but I think the fact that this team didnt have enough depth speaks volumes about the roster construction. Boudreau has shown time and time again that he can outpreform the team that he is given, but that doesnt mean the team is good, look at his playoff record, that shows the real quality of the team and it takes really good managment to see through the overperforming and capitalizing on their value. that was drance's point, this team played above their value, that doesnt make this a good roster, we need to have 4 puck movers on the blueline at minimum, we need to have grit, we need to have a solid right handed 3c, and if we trade miller we could fill some of those needs and then maybe do more like upgrade our 4th line.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Knuckl3s</b></div><div>We can assume the team is mediocre as is, but we don't know how good or bad they will be next season. If Drance says the team needs to make some hard decisions, I'm curious to know if he thinks the team is better of trying to take a step back or step forward next season. That part I'm not sure of, all we know is the team can't remain the way it is if it's mediocre as is
I don't think I'm looking at things optimistically, I'm not expecting the team to be a cup contender next year no matter how good or bad they are. Also, Drance shouldn't be calling the roster poorly constructed considering the results the team got under Boudreau</div></div>
you can have a poorly constructed roster play above their level, they played a very simple game and it worked against the weaker teams and failed against the better ones, to call this team well constructed would be a terrible overstatement. The intent was there but the was only 2 puckmoving D at the start of the year, there was a good top 9 but 3c was terrible for what he was brought in to do. He could pass as a 3LW but not a full time centre. This team relied on demko and you could see for the last month of the season he would put his stick on his right pad and then his glove over his blocker showing that there is probably a knee injury that he is dealing with. thats what happens when you play a goalie 64 games in a year. That isnt sustainable, we need to have a deeper team that can go far, not a team that can just get to the playoffs

I would agree to the point that the leafs say no, he would definately not be a healthy scratch, he would probably be your #2 D, hes better than muzzin and gio and would play below the riley brodie paring

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mediumyeet</b></div><div>I wouldn't touch that as Vancouver. 11mil handcuffs them. OEL contract isn't ideal but it is manageable for a 2nd pair dman. Look at Colorado paying Johnson 6mil or Tampa paying mcdonaugh 6.75. Canucks can build a good team with OEL on the books as a shutdown, puck moving dman. Tavares for 4million more makes things a lot more difficult
Just as an example of what the Canucks could have using players that I know Canucks fans like. Would you rather have OEL + Garland at about 12.2mil or Tavares + Highmore at 12mil?
Garland is the caliber of player that you won't be able to afford by having Tavares over OEL</div></div>
interesting, thanks for the feedback

Building on the foundation
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SK101</b></div><div>That’s fine by me. Roslovic is probably worth 2 seconds but we would also be giving up a lottery first so it would even out. As a rental you would be getting a package of a late first. Boqvist is
a young cost controlled RHD who hasn’t reached his prime. He was on pace for 17 goals and can QB a PP. Not sure the jackets would give him up for one year of JT. Even if that was his value (it’s too much) the jackets shouldn’t be making this trade as they won’t be a contender next year.
Maybe Bean, 12OA, and a player like texier if he comes extended</div></div>

roslovic for a 1st is a reach, but yes that is the price and he wont make it to UFA
