I understand entirely that Mantha is not having the best year.
20 Points in 39 games is light for his standards.
That being said, I am a Huge Fan of Mantha, I still think he could be a top line power forward, with a boomer of a shot.

I am willing to take that gamble.

Here is my Offer -

Canucks Trade - Nils Hoglander + 1st Round pick (Most likely top 10 pick) + Jake Virtanen (Mini Cap dump with potential to make the numbers work)
For
Detroit Trades: Anthony Mantha

Summary: Canucks Get a high potential young Power Forward who can play on both the 1st and 2nd lines. They take on his 5.7m Cap Hit for the next few years in the deal.

Detroit Gets a highly skilled tenacious prospects in Nils Hoglander + A top Draft pick in a wild Draft year.
Detroit also gets next years contract in Jake Virtanen who does have some "boom" potential, to make the numbers work out.

Thoughts?

Detroit takes this and runs.

I wouldn’t do this if I was Vancouver. That’s a truck load to give up for Mantha.
Im a huge fan of Mantha, I feel he would work so well on our top 6.
Losing a 1st is tough in the deal, but you gotta give to get.
Virtanen is basically a cap dump as this points.
Hoglander has talent, I just feel having Pod and Mantha with Horvat on our 2nd line has crazy skill and grit, It's way to good to just ignore potentially.

I'm thinking you just might have outed yourself as Jim Benning


Kudos for making a generous offer. Rather refreshing

I feel like mantha’s current form and his contract kinda make him for Hoglander 1 for 1 something not ridiculous.

I'm yah sorry not happening from Vancouver's end. We're not one player away and Hoglander could wind up better than Mantha. The first as well gonna be a high pick. Just awful for Vancouver.
