Confirmed Trade: [VAN/ARI] Ekman-Larsson (12% ret.), Garland for Beagle, Roussel, Eriksson, 9th OA, '22 2nd, '23 7th

That’s what I was trying to tell Canucks fans every time I started an OEL for dumps thread. They didn’t want to hear it then. But I believe they’ll see the light this season when OEL bounces back.

Proposal: - OEL to Vancouver

Hey - some handsome and clever Canucks fans settled on a trade with you within the first page of that thread!

I think this trade is all about years 1-3 for the Nucks and for the Yotes is a huge L until year four. Then, it’s entirely dependent on Dylan Guenther and how wisely they use all that cap space.

Just you wait - Beagle, Roussel and Eriksson will be fully rejuvenated by the trade, and they'll drag Arizona into the playoffs, ruining everyone's predictions for how this trade plays out.

Beagle will be LTIR and insurance probably picks up a portion of the tab. Eriksson will refuse to report to Tucson, terminate his contract and go play in Sweden. Roussel is a fine 4th liner and you know it.

It always seems to be the very dumb and the very ugly who disagree with me.

I think he’ll have at least two good seasons. His shot deterioration is not psychological, though. Those twenty goal seasons are long gone. That’s an injury thing. He let that slip during a between periods interview on the local fox sports station recently. I also think his decline in mobility cant be pinned on issues between his ears, entirely. He’s not that old, but we’re talking hard miles, here.

I’ve got serious doubts about Garland’s longevity, too, if he doesn’t change his game drastically. If he does change his game drastically, I have serious doubts about his overall value.

I'm not too concerned about him being a big scorer, doesn't need to be w/ Hughes here. Think he's a smart enough player & good enough passer that he'll pick up points playing with our skill forwards. If he can do that and play minutes either as a #3 or best case #2 (for a few years) it'll be worthwhile.

For the Yotes Guenther is obviously just 1 piece but should be a really good one. If you guys get another few high picks (and hit on some of those 2nds + late rounders) you could have the makings of a nice core over time. Either way moving off OEL & getting value for a prime aged player like Garland is a good first step.

One of the the dumbest arguments I've ever seen on hf.

Ah yes, his lack of leadership needed to turn around that sinking ship...he just needed to puff his chest out more and make sure his teammates saw that jawline at the perfect angle.

Being off your game and needing a change of scenery doesn't mean he mailed it in and was doing nothing, you are definitely projecting.

Wow. Just, wow, lol! Call an argument "One of the the dumbest arguments I've ever seen on hf." And then proceed to say "watch this!" Lol

Believe me, he seemed depressed and uninterested. We expected more for our star player making $8+ million. He failed big time. And who said anything about puffing his chest and all that crap you added? SMDH

What he meant was leaders motivate.

Eight point Edler? How big of a step back can OEL be? He scored at more than 3 times the Edler's rate. Hope is is better than 35 year old Edler.

There’s differences of opinion and then there’s takes you just have to laugh at and walk away, like the one you quoted

It is dumb. Leadership isn't something we can tangibly observe from our sofas- putting the blame of the Coyotes shit team on OEL is equally dumb. The dude has been notably off his game for the last 2-3 years and because he wore the 'C' he's the catalyst to all this failure. Dumb notion sorry mate won't be convinced otherwise.
