I would rather see eriksson play with the Sedin's, I don't think Hansen could ever put up 60 or 70 even playing with the sedin's.

They put up 60 goals as a unit last year.

A lot of guys taking longer term for less a bit less money.

If JB lands a top 6 forward, it would help increase Aquilini's "win now" odds.

With Eriksson probably 80. Hansen had 38 points last season.

I wouldn't mind starting the year and seeing if JV or Rodin can play a top 6 role. Make a trade later on.

In 67 games. Do assists really matter when playing with the Twins they pass it back and forth 180 times a game themselves. He just needs to get set to finish.

Assists don't matter no but when they played with vrbata 69 goals. 10 more goals a season could be 15-20 more points in the standings.

Edit: just look at production with vrbata playing with and without the sedins and how the team did. Hansen will score with most players. Need goals.

All the eggs in one basket. Would it not be better to have two scoring lines? Have Eriksson on the PP with the twins

Sorry didn't get my edit in quick enough but not really, shouldn't be a one basket anymore even if you put Eriksson with the sedins. Should get 40 points out of Sven, Bo, Sutter, Hansen. 3 guys at 70 and 4 around 40 should be good. Hopefully 1 or 2 D can get 40 points.

We could always let WD figure that out.

Stenson won

The point about top line goals ?

Last year an injured Henrik scored 7 less goals that left them with 61 goal total for the line .

The year before they scored 69 with Vrbata but Daniels goals were the lowest in years because he was a passer and not the shooter. He had 8 less goals.

Daniel should be the main trigger man instead of trying to feed another trigger man.

Two trigger men are better than one . Spread out the talent

Would really be spread out if we got Kane.

Then Daniel becomes a passer instead of a finisher and the second line is weaker

Then that goes back to the statement, why bother developing your own prospects if you just want to trade to improve.

Some teams do develop to improve also...it's not always the shiny other thing over there is better.

The year Daniel played with Vrbata his goal production was around 14 at the TDL . He had a flurry of goals at the end right around the same time that they took Vrbata off the first line

Saw what "spreading" out the scoring did. Taking Eriksson off the top line makes the first line weaker.

No but I'm guessing like vrbata that is kind of the promise that was made.

I don't know if he was promised? JB never stated that. I only heard he signed a 6x6 contract to play for Canucks, no mention of only playing with the twins

Seriously, please name the 23 prospects that are on the team.
If you could trade Grandlund, Baerschi, Rodin, for Landeskog sign me up.
If you plan on trading Bo, JV, Boeser or Tryamkin no thanks...I believe in developing our own quality players.

Don't people want to see what Loui can do with the twins before we demote him?
