I've been campaigning for a Schneider and Edler move for a long time. Schneider has higher trade value and Edler is our most tradeable asset on D. He has some question marks with his back and his value is really high now. It opens up space for Corrado to play this year. Having Tanev on a bridge contract and Corrado on an ELC would be huge for the Canucks going forward. We would have to hope that Ballard can excel under Torts though, but I would be fine with a D unit that looked like this:
Bieksa-Hamhuis
Garrison-Corrado
Ballard-Tanev
Alberts or other
It would get us help where we need it more...up front.
