I was sick of Poo and Little Things after pre-season. If there isn't wholesale change including coaching Goldobin will be gone but he has as much potential as Virtanen IMHO
I know there’s been a ton a talk about getting Bo some wingers... couldn’t agreee more. Problem is, guys like Lind and Gadovich are still a few years away... big Zack is ready but not as a top 6... so that leaves ufa’s and trades...
I imagine Sutter is gone as Gaudette has proven he’s an everyday nhl 3rd liner and you’re not trading Beagle...
I still don’t think there’s a trade chip there that gets you a top 6 winger....
However, I was looking at the ufa’s to be, granted the Canucks are not a hot bed but imagine if they could get a Pararen or a Duchane?
Skinner, Nyquist both would be nice pieces... my point is, Canucks are two top 6 wingers and a top 4 right d man away from being close to playoffs....
If they can sign 1-2 major pieces they will be in a decent spot...
Hughes and Woo are your top 2 for the next 10 years. Juolevi is there... Brize and Sautner have proven they can play... Hutton and Stetcher are a pair that fits into your top 4....
Canucks have their Centers set for the next 10 years... just need a few wingers and a top righty d man...
