Yes to EK

Only problem is you cant pair him with Stecher to cover his giveaways as our best dman is a rightie as well
- Tigersmyle

Just pair him with Edler, they've played together on Team Sweden before, that always works out well... like Eriksson with the Sedins.

Finally, great blog, good info, can’t wait to see Karlsson on the back end. Canucks could use a #1 RHD. Of course Benning just has to hold fast that Hughes, Pettersson or Boeser are not part of the deal, even Horvat. Everyone else is expendable.

Now Carol I agree with you on how Benning should negotiate but now I’ll read all the super knowledgeable arm chair GM’s that band together on how they are dead against this.
- Makita

Agree about the Big 4 staying. I’d explore how else it could get done. EK is a huge add & fills scoring RHD pronto. If no deal fine. When there is a chance slim or not you’ve gotta try for good Top RHD.

Karlsson would love to play in Stockholm West , I mean Canucks

I think it would cost Dahlen Woo DiPietro and a first .

I hope Benning says no.

Hurricane has just hit boys. Rain and wind is nuts. Expecting 20 inches of rain and flash flooding over night. Actually a pretty cool experience going through this for the first time

Dorion won’t give in to not packaging Ryan.
Seems to be the hold up.

Per john shannon who just got off the phone with jim benning

"Absolutely zero truth to us being linked to Erik Karlsson trade conversations"

It would be a stupid move anyway, would hate to see what that would cost and how it would take years to over come...stay the course

Stop whining, you're worse than Makita.

I'd be ok getting EK and Bobby Ryan for Quinn Hughes plus Tanev.
- kaptaan

Not me, I think the potential of Hughes will be just as high, if not better.

No team will trade anything for karlsson without a extension agreed upon.

Ummm...they loose games,
- Makita

This was about the panic it would create in the fan base about the prospect pool. But yes, they would lose games.

Just listened to Benning interview from earlier today, he basically said, Horvat, Boeser, Petterson, Hughes, Juolevi, Demko and Lind are untouchable/future core.

Training camp can't start soon enough, too many people on edge not knowing what our clown-show of an owner and GM are capable of!!

I'm so calm and cool, I've gotta wear shades all day long brother. Well that and it's 45C every day and there's no such thing as a cloud in this part of the world

Gaudette and dahlen for EK. (EK5)

Woo and Gadjovich in shambles
- Nucker101

Guys like Lind and Gadjovich are the type of players that are key when your team becomes successful. They're the Justin Williams kind of guys!

Benning and Aquilini in shambles

At least you don’t have smoke! I can’t even (frank)ing run anymore and I live on the water. 45 is tolerable in Scottsdale (barely)...what’s the humidity like where you are?

Low humidity, interior desert climate, which makes it tolerable.

I knew I could count on you Marwood

I do truly hope you can comment on all our inane banter!
