Value of: Brock Boeser for Young D-Man

[LuckyBoeser]

Hanifin for Boeser.

I say no

 

[LuckyBoeser]

Gaudette+Juolevi+Demko? but I couldn’t give up (Boeser, EP, Horvat or Hughes)

Nah I would keep Demko, and I highly doubt Colorado would do that trade.

Jack Rathbone is going to be sick. Just wait,

I always been high on Rathbone. I am curious to see how he turn out.

 

[justafan22]

Funny enough, it also fills Minnesota's biggest need of a right shot top line player.

This seems like the next Jones for Johansen type deal

 

[LakeLivin]

It's risky for Colorado as well. Makar is probably the front runner for the Hobey Baker right now and has completely pushed UMass to first place in NCAA. I wouldn't add a pick.

Adam Fox, currently leading the NCAA with 1.82 ppg (vs. Makar's 1.29) says "Hi".

Impressive. Think he signs with you or goes free agency?

 

[Steely Van]

Maybe, but I think Rathbone and Fox are playing weaker NCAA teams than Makar and Hughes are playing.

I posted this same thread minus the d-man part last year almost exactly to the day and got roasted for it.

Now it looks like the Canucks will have too many top 6 wingers after drafting Kappo Kakko who is projected to go around where VCR will pick.

Kaakko
Dahlen
Virtanen
Goldobin
Leivo
Roussell
Boeser

That’s too many top 9 wingers when the Canucks need help on defence and I think Boeser could bring back the best return out of them.

So which young top 3 defensemen are out there available for Brock Boeser?

Leivo is already a staple? Wow.

 

[wraparound]

Montour

 

[Motte and Bailey]

Leivo is already a staple? Wow.

I mean he’s not an all star but he works well with Pettersson. He’s a good top 9 NHL winger from what I’ve seen.

Leivo was underrated on these boards

 

[pettersson]

Leivo was underrated on these boards

He hasn't done anything yet? I get the argument that he hasn't had a chance, but cant assume he'll be a top 6 player given the chance.

I like what I've seen in the last 2 games though.

Edit: Also this thread is dumb, we should not be trying to trade our #1 winger

As for Boeser I'm just worried because of his injury history, his skating sometimes is slow, and after the first half of last year he hasn't been as consistant at scoring.

Understandable..its just funny cause he has 14p in 18 games still, even though the consensus is he's looked a little off this season apart from that colorado game. He'll get back to form. He's young, he's still developing, he'll find it.

 

[GrandmaSlices51631]

Don't trade Boeser

 

[elitepete]

it makes LESS sense to trade horvat that boeser - sometimes it's like people forget
- how young Bo still is
- how good he actually is for his age
- how strong he is trending each year

No it doesn’t. Boeser is better.

 

[biturbo19]

Having 2 Top-6 wingers, maybe adding a 3rd in the draft...and then having a few more serviceable Top-9 wingers is not "too many good wingers".

I mean sure, i'd trade Brock Boeser away for a similar-aged #1D, or even a #1C. But ain't nobody in the league even gonna entertain trading a young #1D or C for a Winger. So...moot point essentially. Not trading Boeser.

The notion that we are set at forward is utterly ridiculous.

[bruins4thecup65]

Carlo, Kampfer, and a second for Boeser and Virtanen

Carlo projects to be a number 1 guy within two years. Hell, we'd even throw in Heinen.

There are really only 2 legit top 6 wingers on that list assuming the canucks draft Kakko.

Very poor starting premise.

 

[wetcoast]

What about Hutton + Boeser for Chabot?

Why would Ottawa do that exactly?

 

[Voodoo Child]

I see Kakko, Boeser and a bunch of 3rd and 4th line guys.

Don't trade Boeser for crap.

 

[UnleashRasmus]

Trading Brock Boeser who admittedly is having a sophomore slump, is an insane proposal unless you're fleecing another team. The Canucks are int he process of building their brand up again. I do understand the want for more push from the back end, seeing as Buffalo had the same problem and still does to some degree.

 

[wetcoast]

I'm not sure if Boston does this but they are coming from a position of strength but my bet is that the Canuck fans and the Op would ask alot in addition to Carlo.
