He'd be back with Bo. Brock will be with EP40. When fully healthy I would hope:
Golobin-EP40-Boeser
Baertschi-Horvat-Virtanen
Rousell-Sutter-Eriksson
Granlund-Beagle-Motte
Schaller
Seriously if you are older than 12 that post is utterly embarrassing. Like I could barely read through that without feeling genuinely bad for you. Did you think this was funny or witty In any way?
Weak nickname so you draw the line to weak physicality so the weak nicknames, get this right, fits it perfectly?
You should explain this, and any explanation other than being a young teenager is just embarrassing IMO

his contract demands make him a no-go, or else what do we do when Brock and EP need a raise? Do they immediately get 10 because Nylander got 8 from our team?
Plus, QH is among the best D prospects not in the NHL right now.
Unless something insanely good comes along, I say stay the course. No need to do anything but wait for prospects to develop, draft more prospects, and maybe sign a UFA if needed.
Besides, even though Goldobin isn't producing numbers, he's playing very well. He's on the forecheck, he's being responsible defensively, and he's generating chances for his linemates. He just needs some time to find his offensive game. Calling him a scrub, well... l'll let that statement speak for itself.

Free agents rarely work out the way you think. Either they end up on an entirely different line you envisioned them with, or with a different player than you planned on them playing with. Or they don't work out at all. Once in a blue moon they might work out as you planned though. This is one the reasons why you don't try and rush a rebuild.
I remember a few months ago someone started a thread saying this was the year for the Canucks to go “All-in” and he was laughed off the forum.
Pettersson is young. Plenty of time to develop prospects to be his wingers. The Canucks aren’t actually in the “all-in” years of their rebuild.
Take a breather, OP. You’re only a few steps out the door on a marathon.

All I saw was you call Pettersson weak and then get upset when I said Glassthews, a bit hypocritical there. Talk about having thin skin.
Your numbers are also a weak attempt at trolling, like the rest of your posts in this thread. Do better next time.
Anyways, to get back on topic, wingers for Pettersson - I'd be fine if the Canucks go the free agency route assuming they don't overpay for a veteran on the wrong side of 30. Otherwise just continue to build through the draft and hope one of our prospects can turn into a 1st line winger.
Obvious options in my eyes are Gustav Nyquist and Jakob Silfverberg. Both Swedes, both pending UFAs, both bring some experience and veteran leadership to the group.
Another obvious option to me is Nylander; what it takes to get him is the potential problem.
Vancouver 2nd + Brisebois for Nyquist
Archibald + Edler for Silfverberg
Tanev + Lind + Vancouver 1st for Nylander

First one seems fairly on point, don't think ANA would want the second one. Third one, meh I'd rather trade for a guy who's playing. But with all these, they would need to be sure they could sign them. Giving up Brisebois and a 2nd only to have Nyquist walk would be infuriating.

I don't care who it is. As long as I never have to watch Eriksson on Elias's wing again. Probably has cost him three or four assists

Agreed with @GoodbyeLuongo - only the first one makes sense. Canucks give up too much for Nylander, as that 1st round pick could be top 10 (which is roughly what Nylander is worth straight up).

Isn't Tanev injured again? Also dont think the Canucks would trade their 1st. Toronto also could get a better return.

Bergevin sent me an offer sheet
Nylander is one that'd make sense in terms of trading for, but they already have Boeser so they're in no rush. I think Gaudette would be a good fit on the Left Wing of Pettersson for now, might even make Canucks fans forget about trading for more Left-Wings and Right-Wings. I think Goldobin and Baertschi fit the bill as well.
But I may like to add Gustav Nyqvist.

Why give up a 2nd for nyquist and a prospect when he can just walk away in the summer , same w. Silfverberg.
Just offer them a contract in summer. Its not like were going to try and win now.
If they were under term then id consider the offer.
Huge pass on nylander if thats the cost
