Aaron Ward on TSN says don't focus so much on trading Bieksa, rather Edler for a better return. Trade both I say. Secondly Pratt is a tool.

That guy annoys me SO MUCH. Can't stand him. The Bro too but at least I know that he was brought on more for the variety rather than being a supposed sports show host.

Oh my that guy (Pratt) has to be the biggest idiot on Vancouver radio, I can't believe the sensationalist garbage that comes out of this clown.

He just said the Canucks had their worst draft in team history - WTF?

Let's start a campaign to get him fired.

Heard that! Patrick White, Jordan Schroeder? This wasn't the first draft we didn't have a 2nd round pick is it? (frank) San Jose, ship Bieksa somewhere else.

I don't think so JB said he would try and drop down the draft if BB wasn't available. That tells me they knew who they wanted and had someone they liked in the second round also. If SJ went for Bieksa he would probably have gotten the player he wanted in the 2nd also.

Doug Wilson is known to be a wiener to deal with, point the finger at him for the Bieksa fail. I hope another team steps up and makes an offer, (frank) San Jose.

Pratt's an idiot, he's somewhat slamming the Boser pick because he was suppose to be a "late" round pick in the first round...WTF does he think the 23rd pick is???

I guess part of his comment is that they traded Lack for peanuts, his opinion not mine, and they didn't trade Bieksa. Aaron Ward tried to politely call him an idiot.

Handled this poorly, but also up against the cap, so handcuffed again. JB has to move out salary pretty soon.
- VanHockeyGuy

Well someone wants to give you a second in 2016 for a player who is worth a second, take it. gets 4.6 of the cap. You get a second in next seasons draft. He is supposed to optimizing his team. Instead he's sitting on his thumbs for something better. Sometimes better isn't coming and it's smarter to get rid now.

Hey, there is no way the canucks would have got ehrhoff without Patrick White. Solid pick.

YUP and look at the poop show that was. He waited too long on Bobby Luo, then went out and got what I still think less then what he should have gotten for Schneider.

Any time you trade a goalie for a top 10 pick you've done alright IMO, unless that goalie is a Price type.

The best thing for this team would be to miss the play offs this season, and force management to trade assets away for picks at the TDL.

Trade Vrbata
Trade Bieksa (if he's here, and maybe another dman, Hamhuis)
Trade Burrows
Trade Miller

A young proven goalie with a cheap cap hit. Sounds a little more then a top 10 pick to me. At least a prospect with it.
