Benning said on the radio he's not trading a single pick this year...thankfully.
- LeftCoaster

Well if Benning said on the radio than we better bet the house on that lol

I've seen him play quite a bit for the Vee's. Lot's of people around here have been saying he won't sign and would like to come back to the west coast. Small town rumors.
- VanHockeyGuy

I heard him do an interview last summer he was staying at Barzals place in the summer. Very close friends . He laughed off the rumors but NYI are also a very strong landing spot.

I would think it would come down to us or them but he said he is hoping to sign in Nashville.

Grandpa was always a tough SOB

Orange Julius was his idea.

From Vancouver’s end

Remember two teams have to like the trade ...not just you lol

No, only I need to like my trade proposals.

He has to say that. He'll be buried with the D in Nashville. Van would be an excellent opportunity.

I think he had to punch a Flyer in the head to get him to release the choke-hold on the guy who sat behind my folks. I loved going to games in the '70's and early '80's! Tons of fighting!

I became a fan of Philly during the mid 70's playoffs, Bobby Clarke was so good, I think he won three Hart Trophies. The 80's was the best hockey in terms of entertainment value, 100% offence, fights, Oilers vs Flames, Canadiens vs Nordiques, Flyers vs Oilers in the finals......good times.

Ramblings, i'd be okay with Dante. Make it happen JB.

Ryan Biech of the Athletic: Looking at a couple young defensive prospects that the Canucks target in a trade: Dante Fabbro (Nashville), Roland McKeown (Carolina), Julius Honka (Dallas), and Lawrence Pilut (Buffalo).
- VanHockeyGuy

That was Van's pick that they traded LA for Vey. I wanted McKeown in that spot.

I agree he did say all the proper things. I really do think it comes down to us or Islanders.

The thing about the Islanders is they are a team that made a huge jump this year. He would be living in NYC and playing with his best friend. That is a pretty huge incentive.

No place for fighting in hockey now

If you put Bo with Rous and Virtsey for an entire season Bo would have career lows, and people would start comparing him to the Kesler black hole years where he couldn’t elevate his line mates.

Can't disagree more with that.... Bo's points are a direct result of Bo! Baertchi doesn't do poop really just picks up points from Horvats good work. His limitations are he's a straight line kind of player. Bo isn't much of a puck distributer and gets the lions share of his points off the rush. That's also Jakes game, straight line off the rush scorer. Roussel seems capable of playing the game anyway it need a to be played. Jake clearly would benefit from playing with two of the hardest working guys on the team . I think Bo's numbers will be about the same regardless who his wingers will be. But that trio would be great together imo, great two way line!

Even if that's the case, it's 50/50 Failing that, find another D.

And as you said to me, everyone else thinks you're an idiot.

Would Baertschi and Leivo make Sutter less of a black hole or would Sutter just suck them in?

This is sutters last season here so I wouldn t be planning to far past that.

If Canucks trade Sutter Gudbrandson and buy out Gagner next year they have 43 mil in cap space .
