lol true. That trade looked pretty good for EDM when they were 60 min away from the conference finals and Hall was watching it all from the golf course.

Is it OK if I keep calling him TJ? Otherwise, I will skip straight to Millsey.

OK Jacuzzi I'm confused. You are advocating trading Boeser for a dman pretty much exactly like Larsson but you condemn Chia for making that deal?

Link please.

Give any team McDavid & they would be better than Oilers now then & in the future.

How is Jones like Larrson? Ok lets just stop this now.

Boeser for a 23 min dman who plays in all situations. 45 ish pts. Ekblad is the guy for me

Johanson for Jones that the type of deal. Both teams win

Keeping the singular player in Hall wouldn't have changed much for the Oil as their problems run deeper than one player. Hall was causing problems in the room which is why he was moved. They wanted it to be McDavid's team.

I look at it this way..........

It is 2021 (2 years from now) and we are awaiting the NHL draft. The Vancouver Canucks have missed the playoffs and the Tampa Bay Lightning get Vancouver's 1st round pick. Vancouver finished just out of the playoffs and are scheduled to be picking at number 12. The number 12 pick this year was Matthew Boldy a very good "prospect" He is 18 years old and has committed to Boston College. He attends Boston College for 2-3 years and turns pro. He likely needs a year in the AHL or two if he turns pro early after 2 years of college . He is now 22-23 and it's 2025. May turn out to be a very good player. Like a JT Miller. Very likely progression and not a bad thing.

Or you get JT Miller now who is turning 26 and in the prime of his career Plays all forward positions including Center and was a 2011 1st round pick at #15. Has been a 40 - 50 point guy without consistent top six minutes/opportunity. Kills penalties, hits, can pass and score, decent in the circle to help Petey, is 6'1" and 215 pounds with 4 years of cap certainty at a very reasonable cap hit. Plus the Canucks need exactly that player right now. I can live with this.

And yes we could potentially be missing out on the next Connor McDavid. But the odds of that are 1000's to 1.

Here are the odds of where Tampa gets to use Vancouvers pick if it's number 12:

1st overall - 2.5%
2nd overall - 2.7%
3rd overall - 3.00%
12th overall - 78%
13th overall - 13.3%

I really didn't want Subban either I think he is a polarizing personality, overpaid and overhyped. Benning will find another RHD if not this year by next for certain.

- Tebeaune


Well I have decided to stay away while all the complaints, female doges, moaning continues on. The reason is I am also not happy with the first round pick that was included, it pissed me off at the time it was announced and still rubs raw.

But to just come here and be another pissed voice does no good, if there is one thing that should be on every Canucks fans bucket list, it is to make peace with the masochistic nature of fandom.

I noticed your post didn’t resonate with anyone here except possibly me, thanks for a reasoned open minded post, certainly gave a different perspective.
