As much as I want to trade Tanev, the team wants to compete and something like OJ-Tanev and Edler-Guddy is a respectable top 4 to play with. that leaves DJ MDZ-Stetcher as our bottom pair.

Aka we have a logjam of 5-7D.
Hutton is an issue with being to aloof & not serious enough on his conditioning. We face a problem of quantity not quality.

Depth on D is needed but we have pitiful scoring on our D. Its a major problem that needs PRIORITY treatment asap. Again Carlson would be a big help & requires us to trade D. Hutton you listening?

Either that or its the EK sweepstakes or OEL one year later cuz idc either way when its so obvious & JB has stated a RHD PP QB is his biggest wish.

Seabrook makes alot of sense, flip Gudbranson for him and get compensated for taking on Seabrook, trade Tanev for assets, Florida likes offensive dman more then stay at home so trade MDZ for Petrovic.

6.875m for 6 more years makes sense? I mean sure if they retained enough.
Stetcher for Seabrook(25% retained) + Nashville 1st?

Salary would have to be retained but I wouldnt trade Stecher, he ended the year strong and one of the hardest working dman the Canucks have. If Chicago retained 25% 5.1 mill for a guy like seabrook is worth it, especially if they took Guddy.

I don't think they would do that to just save 1.1m. I would trade Stetcher just based off of the fact that Edler and Guddy were looking like a legit top 4 paring, Tanev and OJ would make a legit pairing as well, trading Stetcher would allow us to get a pick with Seabrook.

I think at the point where the Canucks are, there is no reason to keep Tanev, I like him yes, but might aswell get assets to help the rebuild, if he really likes it here he could come back when a UFA in a couple years

Auston Watson is out there, plays his role well. He has half the skill of JV.

Only assets worth considering is offence.
Who or what is that?
Every reason to keep Tanev unless someone offers something we need longterm.

Taking on Seabrooks contract i agree is nutz. Using our cap for other contracts of shorter term is fine but depends on who?

List your players who fit the above.

Watching Ehlers reminds me of Nylander.
Not built for the PO’s nor playing like it.
Raymond 2.0 & 3.0 perimeter players.
Great for the regular season but like so often happens its other players who shine in the PO’s. Warriors are what it takes for a cup run. The unsung hero types always seem to come out of the shadows. Tanev Watson etc & the stars play like stars if truly they are.

The Canucks were linked to Swedish free agent center Par Lindholm earlier this week but at the Draft Lottery, GM Jim Benning told Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman (Twitter link) that while they did scout him, they will not be the team to sign him.

Having a great PO’s yes 👍👍
Tanev & Watson were not 1st rounders.

Ehlers can enter the zone fine but after that he does nothing much. Doesn’t win puck battles & disappears.
