For the same reason I enjoy watching any young kid on a poor team, watching Kent Johnson the Oilers/CBJ game right now, score and have success. Reinforces that drafting is the way to success.

Also, Owen Tippett is having a good year in Philly, they looked awful last night against Montreal, but nice to see them have some success from trading a veteran (Giroux) at the TDL and having that kid be successful.

Just gotta keep drafting well, winning the odd trade and keep building. Have more successes than failures and things will get better.

Some of the not so smart ones on here, think it is a 1 season tank.
They are about as smart as you are.😁

Him and Hughes.

Yup

We got a blogger again?
Any sightings of a ref ??

Blues claimed Kapanen, which i suppose suggests that Alvin and the Canucks passed on him.

Well, we can't all provide that in depth analysis of reposting twitter and sh!tting on every move that's made...otherwise your voice might get lost in the mix.

Thanks for reminding me...

Kravtsov is trash

Great trade. Low risk.
- canucksfan1944

Agreed.
I hope Lockwood gets a chance at some point with the Rags.

Kravstov adds some much needed size.
Hopefully this means Boeser and Garland are on the move next.

you forgot to add: we don't need wingers, draft picks are better and too many ruskies.

Hopefully he's not a pillow biter like the rest of the soft players on the team!

VANTEL’S been calling the Russian factor for a while. Maybe he’ll forget about that 3rd for Dermott now.

Kuz will be happy Tochett has a new whipping boy!

I think Kravtsov will be good in Vancouver, high pedigree coming over from Russia, will get a full look on the west coast... never quite got that in NY.

Hope he works out.

Him and Hughes.
- VanHockeyGuy

That would be costly as hell for the Wings. I would imagine just Pettersson would cost a lot. Not sure how well Hughes would fit into the Wings lineup. Can't play him with Hronek as that would likely be a horrible pairing on the defensive side so he would have to play with Seider and Seider would have to play more of a defensive style to cover for Hughes.

What would the Canucks be looking for in a trade for Pettersson?

VAN has an over abundance of wingers right now, some need to get moved out.

Should be an interesting week!

What's the expected or hoped return on Boeser??
Whom else is rumored to go...

Haven't spent much time on Canucks fans sites, or here when Carol was around??

Last I heard was a 2nd and a prospect.
