Has Tiranis given his thoughts on the trade yet?
Alright so whats the next move?
Hamhuis/Edler gone for Voracek/Simmonds/ROR
Thinking something like this for the base of a trade
Bieksa/Edler maybe. Hamhuis has been our best defenseman since arriving in 2010. Absolutely no way he gets moved, there's such a small chance that we'd actually get fair value.
This trade is a waste of time. Why bother acquiring some concussed, regularly scratched loser who is damaged goods? Diaz is the Booth of defensemen.
not sure I like the trade. 25 year old 6"2 210 lbs forward for a 28 year old 5"11 193 lbs defenseman. Thought Weise is our better 4th line grinder compared to what we had for so many years. i.e. the Glass and Hordichuks. We need 4th guys who can bring intensity come playoffs and is capable of chipping in some goals when needed (if we even make it). We'll see...
Possibly, somewhere in the thread. Good deal for the Canucks, mostly because Diaz was hugely underrated by the Habs. (Do think most people are underrating Weise in this thread and making the Habs fans feel worse than they should. That said, the talent level difference between the two is still pretty massive.)

Now we deal Booth for Renè Bourque!
Done
No take backs!
No kidding, get GMMG on the phone.
Diaz doesn't have an awful contract though. Most of the hate on Booth is because he makes so much.
Diaz was a top point scorer last year, he was simply not in the plans anymore ... and then the slope went down as he got paired with unfitting partners.
When being with the right guy, he is actually pretty good.
Hopefully he will yield to his potential with the Canucks.
