Hayes, Lee, Brock Nelson would all be perfect fit with Bo

Stone, Panarin and Skinner would be pipe dreams

Some people are so thick. “VANTEL wants to trade for Schneider, what a dufus, he’s a terrible goalie”

- Brooks_Light

Agreed.

I don't know about Hayes with Bo, doesn't he play C? Seems to me like the type who plays best when he's controlling from the middle

lol so they gave up Calligula for nothing...
- LordHumungous

No, calligula for a whore in manning

Agreed.

yeah you're right - but it can be done - a lot easier to switch to wing than vice versa

Honestly I'd be okay signing any of these guys as long as the contract isn't insane
- NorthNuck

how did pavelski not make your list? Age?

Then put Thiessen in, grab some popcorn and watch the sky fall with the army of snowflakes in here
- Brooks_Light

NCAA i believe.

- SMBDragon

Mostly yeah. I like Pavelski but it would really depend on the contract. Short term would be very important which I doubt he'd come to the Canucks for

Not a lot of UFA's that sign short term contracts.
A younger winger would be worth looking at depending on who remains a UFS by the summer.

Like Brooks said, Brock Nelson would be a good pick up. Consistent 20 goal scorer. Doubt he'd want to leave NYI with the year they're having though

Simmonds is a great heart and soul player but he's lost a step, he's looking for one last big contract before the wheels come off.

Geez, Petey has got to be the defensive stalwart on that line.

So much for finding someone to play with Bo. Like it's mattered who the third wheel playing with petey and Boeser has been .

Skillz

I was there year and a half ago, stayed at a hotel in Dartmouth (burnside) and the McDonald bridge was closed for repairs. Maybe it was the other one. Either way, it was a pain to get to Halifax. Traffic was always a pain back home but it’s just nuts now.
- bloatedmosquito

was that summertime?

when I look at fb, everyone back east is always posting donair and fish and chip places.

then again, the people I grew up with from back east and are living in Alberta are posting the same things.

and lots of instant pot recipes and pride with pot sales in Nova Scotia.

(oh sht, I didn't realize how far behind in the thread I was )

They should have Petey fill in for Edler. He's better than anyone else we have

- Nucker101

Pump&dump Spooner if he can put up big numbers? Otherwise I don't get it either

will now hear Petey - Fedorov comparisons.

Ya he's pretty sharp defensively

1 of the smartest players I've seen in ages
