Make my day.

Finally took you long enough to work that out.



now

Boeser Markstrom top prospect
for
rental Lucic


Gudbranson for Demers

Go on admit it, you love it when Benning trades away futures. If you didn't you would support him for it.

Are you making trade proposals? There is another thread for that. :popcorn:

Speculation is not proof. Is thst really so hard to understand?

That Gudbranson rumour is speculation, although from quality sources.

That we made a futures package offer for Lucic is flat-out fact, confirmed straight from the mouth of Benning. We don't know what the package was, but we know that he thought it was better than a #1 pick and a top young goalie.

Benning made an offer for Lucic. That is fact. But like you said, we don't know what the package was. That is a fact. Some poster(s) here is passing off a specific trade as if that was the package offered up when like you said they couldn't possibly have known.

All we know is that there was an offer and Benning thought that his package was better than LA's. That could be anything. Besides, Benning was very likely wrong there. Not only was LA's 1st round pick significantly higher than what we could have offered, Martin Jones was worth more than any prospect the Canucks could have offered outside of Virtanen. Plus we know that he was trying to trade Lack and not Markstrom at the time, so it's curious that Markstrom is the name included in the deal and not Lack.

Sounds like you're trying to spin that because we can't know what players were involved how bad it may have been is irrelevant. Basically suggesting that the offer wasn't that bad because Benning was incompetent thinking he had a much better offer than it actually was.

Either way though, Goaltending could be debatable - could have been Lack instead of Markstrom, fair enough. But there's no way we approach LA's offering without including the 1st rounder/Boeser pick. I mean are you suggesting he offered up maybe Lack, Subban, and a 2nd and thought it was better or equal deal than Jones and the #13/14/15?
