I'd much sooner the canucks target Galchynck
- Bieksa#3

Same here, but hes one of the best prospects in the world. No way MTL trades him.

Hank a game time decision?

#Canucks Higgins, Richardson taking part in morning skate. Hamhuis and Henrik are not. Torts is out there which is unusual for a game day.

Yes please, just beat the Leafs for God's sake

No warrior BS tonight. These 'noble' gestures are stupid and do nothing for the team.

I'd be alright with that. A few deadline deals for additional 1st Rounders, plus Ekblad

Edler and Higins for Islander 1st

Ekblad and Dal Colle in the same draft

He's not on the ice this morning so he's probably not going to play. Unless he's just resting the ribs?

Oh really...

Its pretty interesting that Bergevin and Gillis have linked up for two trades over the last year. Maybe they've discussed a top 4 Dman for Pacioretty deal?

If Edler was playing in the east with PK Subban, he'd win a Norris or two.
- Gullzy

So a team that's struggling to score goals is going to trade thier top goal scorer (23) for a defenceman that would be redundant in Montreal?

Maybe Gilles made a deal with hammer. We play ball, you play ball

Etem and 2 1sts

Or

Lindholm

- qwijibo

Does redundant mean the same in Quebec as it does in the rest of Canada) Edler would be your 2nd best d man, so apparently it doesnt

The top one is Zogg and bottom one nucker?

- LeftCoaster

They have a couple.

But what's the point bringing them up to a struggling team when Torts isn't going to play them for more than 5 minutes a game?

The reason they don't have a lot is because of the 2010 draft in which they didn't have a pick until the 4th round.

Those players would be in their pro+2 seasons, or 21-22 years old.

The rest are either too young or need more seasoning.

It's a product of trying to "win now" for so many years.

Let's not go through this song and dance again...

There's a detailed discussion on the Canucks draft success over the last 10-15 years over on the HF prospect board comparing them to other teams in the league, if you want to read it.

Spoiler alert: They're about middle of the pack--not the best, but not the worst.

Hah, they wish they were as bad as those mother (frank)ers...or even Raphael Diaz, for that matter...
