Proposal: NYR & VAN

[Vancouver Canucks]

I think the draft dips down after seventh pick. So, no.

I'm kind of happy with a number of guys who will be there at 9. Trading up to 7 doesn't really do much for me.

if the cost to move up is the 48OA and the Rangers have a guy they want, this is an easy yes from them

 

[PetterssonSimp]

Why tho? I’m more likely to get the guy I want at 7 than have to be left with only Bouchard at 9 who is the least desirable of the defenceman of the Top10 to me. You’d have to do better than just 1 2nd rounder for me to drop out of a position to grab a guy I want to a point where that won’t be available.
If Zadina falls to 7, why bother? If Dobson is there not a chance! If Hughes is still there it’s not worth it! This just limits Vancouver’s chances at high quality prospect and betters the Rangers.

To NYR: Vancouver's 2018 first round pick (7OA)
To VAN: NYR's 2018 first round pick (9OA), and NYR's (NJ) 2018 second round pick (48th OA)

That's my mistake as a typo. It is a 2nd.

NY will be happy to move up, but 9OA is needed as a fallback to be used, but more likely in order to move to something higher slotted than 7OA.

I am seeing 1-2 vets + a later 1st
too busy to figure that out now.
later

#1. Dahlin-BUF #2. Svechnikov-CAR #3. Kotkaniemi-MTL #4. Dobson-OTT #5. Tkachuk-ARI #6. Hughes-DET #7. Bouchard-VAN #8. Wahlstrom-CHI #9. Zadina-NYR why do they need to trade up

That's a pipedream.

 

[One Winged Angel]

That's a pipedream.

Most likely going off the list that Stauffer tweeted yesterday or the day before. I don't see it happening either though. Stranger things have happened, however. I mean who saw Cherepanov falling to 17 in 2007? Or Fowler falling as far as he did in 2010?

Not saying it will, but it does happen.

Really? I think you're the only person I have seen say that. Considering that no one knows who will go where in from picks 3-9, its nearly impossible to say you think the draft drops off after the 7th pick...

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Canucks easily decline, not enough. At 9 we literally get no desision to make.

 

[charliemurphy]

I think that is totally feasible.

Not saying its not feasible. I'm saying I think if Gorton is going to make a move to move up in the draft it won't be to move up to 7 it will be to move up higher to make a bigger splash.

I've seen plenty of scouts say the tiers drop around 12 ish.

 

[Common Court3sy]

Completely agree, I’d be pretty choked if Van passed on him even considering the huge hole on d

We need the D, that's why I'd say if he's on the board we see if Rangers are interested in a trade like this, gets us another pick and still a good Dman
