Heinen is owed $2.775m this year. Virtanen is owed $1.7m. So I'm assuming there's a discrepancy over the $1m this year, even though Anaheim pays Virtanen $3.4m next season?CapFriendly shows Heinen at 2.8, not 3.4

No thanks. Jones is younger, cheaper, and is starting to come along nicely. No reason to trade him at all for VirtanenJones is worth about the same as virtanen. I just like his game more.
virtanen is a better finisher and more polished offensively with a better shot, Jones has a better motor and uses his size better.
max Jones career year in the nhl offensively, matches virtanen’s lowest year. They are only 1.5 years apart in age.
The bolded is probably the issue. With what he's producing currently is there any reason ANA would think Virtanen @ 3.4 is worth it?
We said the same thing about JV 2 years ago. It didn't work out well.No thanks. Jones is younger, cheaper, and is starting to come along nicely. No reason to trade him at all for Virtanen
Ya but JV already getting paid, Jones is a long way from making that type of moneyWe said the same thing about JV 2 years ago. It didn't work out well.
On sportsnet right now.

Manson’s value is nowhere near what it used to be, but then again, neither is Virtanen’s. Manson could be a guy Anaheim looks to move prior to the expansion draft though.
Friedman just says the #’s have to match, so I’m thinking it’s total salary.
it doesn't really have too..... if Anahiem is interested in Virtanen than so be it... it's not like Virtanen has a crazy contract anyways and its quite manageable. I'm not sure why Friedman has the mindset that a trade has to have 2 players with similar contracts, what's he smoking. Damn I have so little respect for the guy.
What happened to him? I don't follow the ducks but everytime we play(ed) against them I always noticed Manson. Dude is a beast.
The problem is neither does our managementI don't get what the Ducks are doing but out of the three Cali teams, I think they have the best path to get back to being good. No real bad contracts.
If we managed to get Manson, I'd do cartwheels. He brings exactly what the Canucks are missing and is the ideal partner for Hughes.Manson had his fluky 40 point year and then suddenly got this idea in his head that he's an offensive d-man. He could still be good if he could reign himself in. As things currently stand with him though the Ducks would be better off without him.
I hope we trade him tbh, no interest in keeping him when his contract is up and I think teams fighting for playoffs would be interested in his toolset. Hakanpaa provides similar skill set , and drysdale will likely be up with team next yearIf we managed to get Manson, I'd do cartwheels. He brings exactly what the Canucks are missing and is the ideal partner for Hughes.
I would rather have Max Jones, take the more unproven player but still has more goals than Virtanen in less games.
Bobs just checking to see if the Canucks have any old dmen going down hill we can snag before expansion, so we can pay to protect him and give Seattle a good young dmen we don’t want to give a chanceSeems to be a very long talk!
Max Jones isn't even the throw-in in a PLD trade. He's the asset everyone forgot was even included.I don’t believe Max Jones is available, unless it’s in a package for a better player than Virtanen (such as PLD earlier this season).
