Sad line up, but sure better than what’s being tried by Green

Canucks have led the possession battle 8 times so far this season (including last night). They have led in scoring chances 8 times, and they have led in high danger chances 6 times. In all cases, they won only 2 of those games. #moralvictories

TG would agree on effort and good games too. Seems they either lack the talent or the luck or both to finish.

But big challenge to overcome conduit of Tanev factor to bring the confidence for offence.

No it's not, he is one player on a team of 20+.
This team sucks and the coaching is suspect.

Makes no sense to trade for Kane when he will gladly sign with JB as a UFA. So you are giving Guddy away for nothing. Sven was acquired for a high 2nd as an undeveloped prospect. Now he's been developed into a legit top 6 giving him away for a second also is counterproductive. But I guess you think that is a value deal posting it often so agree to disagree.

We are trading for a guarantee of Kane. There will be other suitors next year for his services, there are no guarantees. You think he wouldn't look at a legit competitor if they have the cap space for him? We are also getting the 2nd back from Baerschi in a deep draft year. Even if we can't re-sign Kane it is worth it because he could net another good return at the TDL if needed.

I do notice that when Tanev is on the ice with the young kids, they are more willing to take risks to create offence. Tanev gives them reassurance that someone is there to fix their mistakes. That makes us a lot better, and is what a top pairing defenseman does for his team besides the normal job.

Guys guys guys....this is all a dressing rehearsal until the real (rebuilt) team shows up in four years, just enjoy the beer and nachos along the way

Just wait. Canucks play STL, LAK, VGK next. Prepare for 3 losses

If they got a legit player to play with them on LW they would produce more. Though Sven works for them, i think he drags them down a bit. Guddy + Sven for Kane(w/ extension) and a 2nd when Stetcher is back.

I’ve thought on that very trade also.
Only the size & toughness EG brings makes me pause without any other in the system.
D depth is only as good as the health of Tanev & Edler dictates. Get around that though & I’m cool.

Reality is not such a bad place.

He would be a good pick up as well, again with a contract in place. I would pay either around 6mil per for 5 years(or around there) as an offer with a 10 team NTC or a 5 team MNTC.

I like JVR but Kane has other skills i want more. Aggressiveness tops the list.

But I'm optimistic that a real rebuild might start at this years TDL.

They have 8 million in cap space. Didn't need to shed till next year.
- manvanfan

They just couldn't afford to keep Eberle there at 6 mil per. Doesn't allow for any wiggle room or flexibility when signing McJesus or Draisaitl. But I would not be shocked if Chia Pet makes a move soon.
