I don't think Bo or Petersson will make a trade request. But I can imagine Boeser Miller & Hughes making the request. Lose Hughes and we are done (although we were technically done after we signed all these 3-4th liners for 3m a pop).

Yeah I think Bo and Pettersson are more of the team player types, whereas Boeser and Miller only want to be there if the team is doing well. Hughes is barely 21 so he could go either way, lol.

Would you guys do a hughes and miller for eichel and dahlen swap?

If any of those players are asking for trades they’re being total bitches, Green has given them oodles of ice time and opportunities to succeed... I mean Miller was a fuckin giveaway machine this year at a level that would have made Sbisa blush nevermind all his coasts back on “defence” and he never had his ass parked

Miller doesn't seem like a guy that can handle losing well.
Not saying he is making a trade request, but I also wouldn't be surprised if it did end up being true.

Good thing the Canucks jumped up 5 spots in the standings during the last stretch :facepalm:

Just a friendly reminder to some of the noobs on RS. You cannot start a 2021/2022 Canucks thread until the playoffs are over.

If you do, everyone on RS will point their fingers at you and laugh. Plus, failstorm.

Also, the thread is always started by one guy year in and year out. That member would be, none other than, murd0c. Yeah, sometimes, he’s a little slow. Give him at least half an hour grace period. Sometimes he needs a slap up the side of the head —— RS wake up call.

In a heartbeat.

Hard yes.

I’d say no. Trading away the best dman we’ve had in 40+ years after 1.5 seasons? Can’t stomach it lol

Eichel is constantly hurt and considering spine surgery too... hard pass

10% odds down to 5%... yay

After watching US playoff games with fans at the game, watching this Jets/Oilers game is almost painful.

Technically Murdoc has started 9 out of the 13 Canuck threads. Maybe the honor should goto the person who is most active in the thread? Which is surprisingly Skinnypupp

I was really into them after the playoffs last year.. But this has been pretty disappointing. I haven't watched a game since the covid outbreak, there didn't seem to be much point. :(

If Arizona wins 1st or 2nd overall, it will result in a RE-DRAW of the lottery. It would be TEXTBOOK Canucks Luck if we pick either 1st or 2nd overall with Arizona, resulting in a re-draw.

Haha ... all the hype about the new and improved Oilers, this is McDavid's year ... they get spanked by Jets 4-1 in opening game. Again, you can have all the fire power in the world but if your goalie is a sieve ..

And in this case, your fire power can't even put more than 1 goal in the net.

I like McDavid but there is something satisfying to see Oilers fail again. Just like the Leafs. Mtl vs. Jets in round 2 please.

My hate towards the Oilers is how many #1 draft picks they have gotten over the years.

Reminds me of our West Coast Express years. During the regular season we could outscore our defensive issues, but in the playoffs we would lose to defensive-minded teams like the Minnesota Wild...

The biggest reason IMO that the Canucks are underachieving is the meddling owner Aquilini.

-from the article:

In any business, it's one of the cardinal sins to run your operation with emotions. If that above nugget from Aquilini is the truth, and he is meddling on a more regular basis in day-to-day operations, then the chances of the Canucks ever becoming a Stanley Cup contender under his watch have taken a serious nosedive.

Truth be told, Aquilini's antics are growing old. His silence on vital issues such as the largest COVID-19 outbreak in sports is embarrassing. Making your player speak up on behalf of the team’s atrocious post-COVID schedule is despicable. To boot, making your coach comment on a player’s sexual misconduct allegations while ownership and management remained silent is disgusting.

Now, with the Sedins reportedly in line for roles with the team, it feels like another move by the Aquilini’s to cover up some of the egg that they have splattered across their faces.

They already ran Trevor Linden out of this organization, what will they do with two of the franchises two other icons?

As fans, all you want is your team to have success. Aquilini shouldn’t be any different. However, with one of the most important offseasons in franchise history now beginning, it seems like this ownership group is setting this team up for failure and mediocrity instead of success.

On a lighter note, Pettersson on Hoglander: "He's a power forward. But a tiny one."

Made me laugh... Petey said he wants to stay here, but going back to Sweden for the summer and said a deal will get done, just takes time

yea, but he also said
