Either Benning is trying to prop up Hoglander as part of the OEL trade OR Canucks are super high on him.
Peronsally, im super high on Hoglander. He's been playing in the SHL full time since he was 16 for the last 3 years. He can make the Canucks this season. I see him as a Victor Arvidsson clone with a home run potential of a Brad Marchand type.

Does Loui Eriksson still have an NTC or NMC? Maybe that might be the hold up???

His agent has been trying to find a trade for him for the past year I'm sure he would accept a trade anywhere
Yeah seems like he's trying to sell him.
I really don't want to lose him with likely a 1st/2nd for a crippling contract like OEL. We have 2 half decent prospects left and we don't pick until the 3rd round this year. Let's not drain the system now and next year for 7 years of OEL.

He also mentioned Tyler Madden a lot before he dealt him for a guy who played 15 games as a Canuck. Wouldn’t pay much attention to this
Our studs are all 25 and under though.
Plus Podz/Hoglander
Wildcards with Juolevi, Rathbone, Woo,Tryamkin, Lind , Dipietro.
I think were fine with not having as much draft picks. Its time to insulate these young studs with legit talent around them.
Is OEL at 35 really that crippling though? He has a very good buyout contract at the end. Even if it comes to that you are better dealing with OEL in 7 years time if you can get out from LE right now. You'd be getting a really good defenseman as a trade off for a number of years.
I dont even know how anyone can without a doubt say thats going to be cripling when we dont even know what the cap will be in 6 years.
The league is expanding, ESPN seems to be wanting to jump back on board in television, the cap will probably be around 90 million in 5 years.
I think the OEL contract is highly over- exaguraed by panic petes
Worst case scenario is you spend an asset to get rid of him in the future.
You know how I know you haven't been a Canucks fan with any seriousness since probably about 2015? You remember nothing of Gillis's most prominent mistake: never acquiring a proper top 6 forward to play with Kesler and Samuelsson. That was what eventually ended Vancouver. This, with a prospect pool that was barren and a drafting wasteland led to no help from inside the organization. And eventually the Canucks rather sudden downfall circa 2014.
Y0u would have Vancouver make the same mistake again?
Why would we not want a top pair d if we can get him at a reasonable cost? Do you not think he makes us better? How else are you improving our D this summer?

GM speaks highly of assets someone else wants: more at eleven
Right now we have LE and Loungo taking up 9 million in dead weight. If you can push 6 of that to the distant future, why wouldn't you? I cannot fathom how people don't see that adding a top pair 23-25 minute all situation D on a buyout friendly deal helps us. An opportunity like this NEVER comes up.
I'm not really sure what youre arguing or trying to say.
What im saying is the Canucks have a young core in a lot of the important positions.
I think now or in the next year or 2, they need to be getting proven players to support the young core.
Which is why im ok trading away draft picks and magic beans in return for , more cap space , or proven players to help the young studs.
for example,
id be okay with moving 2021 1st round pick for OEL.

Haha. Yeah, it's less than a week ago that GMBA was saying that Kuemper is the best thing ever and he's so lucky to have him and GMs would kill for a goalie like that. LOL.
based on Jim Benning's presser and other information leaks out there, this is what i would guess is the current Canuck offer that has been submitted
Olli Juolevi
1st rnd pick 2021
Loui Eriksson
Kole Lind
for
OEL
Zona clears 50 million from their salary commitments. They get a 1st rnd pick and A dman with potential but can also play right now. Lind is also a B/C level prospect

That would be a disaster for Arizona

It's OEL for Juolevi and Lind. Maybe worse because I doubt anyone would take LE for a distant first
