Tanev straight up for him?
- Reubenkincade

If Tanev goes to Buffalo then they throw in their first or Nylander to go along with Kane.

Everyone keeps saying when the twins are gone we are screwed. I say BS.

Benning has built a very decent D and goal tending has been a lot better than anyone predicted .

They are both producing points about 1 out of three games and I think that can be replaced especially with all that cap space.

If I am wrong we get some very high draft picks , but the backbone is already in place for the transition.

Sven-Bo-Erk
Granlund-Sutter-?
Labate?-Gaunce?-Virtanen?
? - ?- Dorsett.

Edler-Stech
Hutton-Tanev
Tree-Gudbranson

Markstrom.

Now subtract one of Sven, Hansen, Granlund or Sbisa due to expansion.
Sedins, Miller (likely gone this summer) Sbisa, Burrows (same as Miller) and Hansen are UFA's, Megna, Chappo and Skill as well.
Maybe insert Boeser and OJ over the next two seasons, with maybe another two 1st round kids that potentially make the jump at best...

UFA class is slim to none.
Looking good....

Nylander + Kane for Tanev I would do in a heartbeat

I would really like Kane TBH but that is a seperate trade.
- VANTEL

It seems Tanev RHD makes more sense for Sabers then Av's but he's worth more then Kane. But this is more off season stuff at best depends if they move Sbisa by TDL. If they lose him rather then forward to Vegas. Then likely no D traded off season. Also Vegas may flood the maket with extra picks they have.

Rough night at the dome

Well GG did bench Bennett and put stajan with Johnny


That young goalie is pretty decent too

I think the last incident was a wake up call
- VANTEL

Saw it like that at the time. Which was why it would have been nice to do deal in summer with lower value.

If you think Canucks are just going to do nothing for the next five years ,then I am not going to try to change your mind. I will let you sit around and wait for the sky to fall .

We resign Miller..expose Marky
Sedins still here

We resign Miller..expose Marky
- Nighthawk

Seriously? Why would you expose Markstrom and not trade him instead?

Holy Feck, what a bunch of drama queens! LOL.

- VANTEL

We will see Saturday if he got the message

Nylander + Kane for Tanev I would do in a heartbeat
- Retinalz

I think it would be close.

Adam Larsson got Taylor Hall.

Tanev is better than larsson
-Better corsi
-Better possession
-Better Shot suppression
-The same offensively
- He is a right shot top pairing D-man which is impossible to trade for.

- VANTEL

Agree he might get shopped but plan b to entice LV to pick him & we keep Sbisa & a F.

Benning likes Sbisa . He said it today. He probably has something on the burner

Trade bait...

Tanev Hansen Sbisa Marky

Singular or packaged to whom for what?

Think maybe Dallas TBL Av's Sabres

From what they are saying they won't leave until Nucks are ready to replace them.

Would rather trade Miller to Dallas for one those 2 bums they have in net.

Taking on another year of one of those guys salary would be worth a high pick or a good prospect.

The drama queens will anoint another

No I think that is too much , we can go cheaper. I could see Hutton JV
- VANTEL

That's sounds expensive especially long term for Kane.

The lead up to the TDL will tell who is serious & who is not.
Bubble teams galore & still fence sitting. Patience only lasts so long til the 1st key domino falls. The Habs or TB i think r 1st to pull the trigger.

We're all gonna die .

Look man, i appreciate your optimism, but to say the team is going to be better off without the twins is downright ludicrous.

Even if Bo becomes elite material, we would ultimately be devoid of at best, 3 other top six players, assuming Sven and Brock/Virtanen become first line material.

I know you love Benning and all, but this team could not even find Kesler a single (frank)ing decent line-mate over the course of almost a decade...yet somehow we are going to build an entire top 6 line in the course of 2 years lol?

"We can trade": we have no assets.

"We can draft": not if we continue on the path of selecting in the 8 to 15 range, sure we can find a gem or two, but the likelyhood of them making the pro's in the next year or two is rare to say the least.

"We can sign UFAs": When was the last time a decent UFA hit the market? At what age and cost?

It's one thing to be optimistic, it's something completely different to expect Benning to pull a rabbit out of a hat (or in this case, 3).

Hitting rock bottom is absolutely inevitable, most people understand that.

LE was fine as a free signing IMO.
One thing everyone omits is we r not the only team at the draft.
That means shrewd trades will also be needed.

Was 4-0 but the Flames kicked a field goal.
37secs left 4-3
