Yeah, he qualified part two with risk but acknowledged it could work out.

OEL doesn’t even have to “bounce back”, he just has to be Edleresque.

True

Im trying to see some silver lining from the cap dump aspect of the trade and I keep thinking about the Ladd dump. I know he has an extra year but man 2 2nds and a 3rd with zero return is a massive price tag. At least we actually got good players back on top of never having to see Loui Eriksson ever again.

He isn't a rookie gm

Depending how fa goes its fair to say that group mis judged the market mightily though.

If things don't work out in Seattle you can always hope Portland gets a team.

Not bored of those spicy take seekers yet?

I like math and stats more than the normal human but that crowd is just sad.

It’s too slanted & less than ideal. Analytics are an aid but not the meat imo.

I dont really get how that community analyze and assign numbers to these kids, given their age, league, line competition etc.

I more so like reading their takes cause while they are assigning these numbers, they also give overviews on play style and a small blurb about them so it's nice to read.

No I'm talking about these commentators. I don't know who we picked in the 2nd round.

Like Tim Murray b1tching and complaining about the lottery after he lost out on McDavid

Way to make Jack Eichel feel wanted. I mean, everybody knows, but don't say the quiet part out loud

Pretty much like that.

haha I don't know man - I doubt he even cracks their lineup.

I know things have been a zoo around here lately but I honestly expected somewhat of a celebration/party knowing that Eriksson is no longer a Canuck. Considering, basically 97% of the fanbase has wanted him gone since what, 4 months into his contract??

Days ago people would have ridiculed and name called just for suggesting trading LE,AR,JB, all in 1 trade
More importantly GMJB has shifted his cap allocation to top D and top 9 from bottom 6 depth , great moves

He actually put up better numbers than Edvinsson did in Frolunda J20 and tied Lysell in points. But he's a shrimp - who knows???

1 pick left for us in the draft. Pretty disappointed Benning didn't make good on his word of recouping picks that were dealt. Hopefully he can recoup a 2nd and 3rd in 2022 draft.

Good breakdown but the bold part is pure guess work. He's only 30, he could come in put up great numbers for 3-4 years. Just because he's had regression doesn't mean its 100% going to continue. He can bounce back. Just playing devils advocate.

Elder was still useful up to 35.

I thought the Canucks drafted Conner Roulette with their other 6th. Nope that would have been too good to be true.

Conner Lockhart instead.
