Eklund: RUMORS: What Vancouver or NJ Would Have to Pay to Reunite the Hughes.

Probably so much easier for NJ to get Quinn...

Pettersson will find someone to bully him no matter where he plays.

Eklund: RUMORS: What Vancouver or NJ Would Have to Pay to Reunite the Hughes.
- Eklund

Good write up, as a Canucks fan I want Hughes to remain in Vancouver. He is going to win another few Norris trophies and I hope it’s with the Canucks.

any examples of player for player trades Rutherford has made to qualify him as the best for several decades.

Good blog with an interesting analysis. Hoping Vancouver gets all three.

Las Vegas swoops in and gets all 3..Jack lives in LTIR as long as he wants whenever he wants. Pietrangelo can finally retire after 47 years in the league.

Vancouver and Jersey get whomever is considered a fan favourite cap casualty from LV

Quinn Leaves in Free Agency is my thinking.
Vancouver is going to take a step back and that doesn't bode well for attracting players there or retaining players close to Quinn Hughes' level. they'll build through the draft.

Kind of a silly/weird notion. The 3 brothers don't play a heavy game. Its hard to build a team around 2 sub-6 foot players who may be stars ..... when not injured. But small and not physically inclined in playoffs is another matter. And both would be earning north of $10 million each at some point. How good will the 3rd brother (Luke) be is open for debate. Sometimes the notion of the idea sounds better then what the reality would be lke.

I think Quinn is the best and most proven asset of the 3 bros. Vancouver should be focusing on doing whatever it takes to build/rebuild their roster into something super competitive and which forces Quinn to think twice, thrice, five times before he considers leaving as a UFA.

This is not an apples to apples comparison but look at how Florida didn’t break a sweat when it came to extending Reinhart (57 goal season) until the eve of UFA. Now they’ll probably do the same with Bennett. Build a roster that is capable of hanging with the best and winning and youve given your star players just about every reason to stay…and you might just attract a few others to come join them too.

Flyers blog is pretty quiet. Let’s just take over there

I think this article is pretty ridiculous. The devils are not giving up Jesper and / or Nico….in any trade.

Why did yet another pens blog get deleted? Just trying to kill any traffic left to the site?

NJ has all the cards here. If Vancpuver wants anything, they will get some prospects and 1st rounders no way Bratt or Nico are moving when he can just sign here. If Van knows, he is gone and to NJ. They will take what is offered rather then get nothing.
