ROR McCabe and 32 for Skinner and Hanifin

Sign JT, sign Bernier

Skinner Eichel Reinhart
Mittelstadt Tavares Okposo
Smith ERod Baptiste
Wilson Larsson Pommer


Scandella (to start) Dahlin
Hanifin Risto
Guhle Nelson
Bogo

Bernier
Ullmark

It’s not perfect but until someone earns a call up and gets Larsson out and Pommer but that’s a playoff team IMO if the goaltending holds up

Then in 2019 you have the young kids working into the lineup more.

- Stripes77


I’m in only if skinner is signed first ..

And if we get Hanifin we can move sam without jack getting mad

Poor Ennis, man. Those back-to-back concussions ruined him.

That Marc Staal contract. Yowza

Like i said before...
looks great on paper
I just don’t know if Hamilton is the right “fit” as a partner for Dahlin?

but if he is not, you can try risto

I think there will be a big trade this summer. Botts is going to make some big changes

This is the kind of trade I wish Ek hadn't made up, because now I want it to happen.

Pretty much this.

I honestly didn't think he played even 1 game.

Are we just going to ignore the huge hole we have at wing ?

ROR is the only one that can get us that

Yup to Ennis and Re: Mark Staal, he should be a lesson for every GM that will invariably do the same thing over and over and over again.....

@TSN1040
.@botchford: Canucks have had like four teams call on Brandon Sutter. Brandon Sutter is the guy that has had the most calls on this offseason. And that shows you that there is a lot of teams that need a centre

Wow that’s a horrible top 2 lines Jesus

Sam should be on the 3rd line he’s a energy player that can maybe get 15-20

The people that think Rhino sucks would show up to the arena with torches and pitchforks if we traded Bennett and made him a first line winger.
I think leaning on Mitts to be a 2C is very positive, but the growing pains might hurt. Bad.
I'd love to see Erod groomed to be a poor mans ROR. He seems to have the tenacity for it. We won't get 60 points out of him, but he seems to have no problem playing a defensive role/has no entitlement to be in the top 6.

Why not? Girgensons and Pominville were his wingers this year.

He actually plays well with Okposo, and Bennett brings speed and energy with more scoring touch than Girgs

Did you see that top-4 D?

That would definitely be top-15 in the league. Maybe Top-10 if Dahlin comes out firing

Also, Bennett and Okposo would be light years better than Girgs and Pominville

And look where we ended up. We need scoring, Bennett and Okposo aren't going to bring that and it will be another season of wasting Jack's talent. I do not want to see this team turning Eichel in the next Tavares. Now we've wasted jack's ELC, time to get serious about winning.

Listen I like sam b for the 3 rd line and maybe he will move up to player he was supposed to be

But putting a dude that could not get anything going with the likes of Johnny hockey and Monahan on the first line is not a good idea

You're missing the forest for the trees here. Hamilton is what you're getting. Bennett just gives you a player to plug into the forward ranks, and you hope he can regroup from 2 poor seasons
