Rumor: Preds interested in Gaudette

[AdmiralsFan24]

Third round pick and call it a day

Hell f***ing no.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Hell f***ing no.

That’s fine

 

[AKL]

That’s fine

Not to derail the thread, but I'd give up a 3rd for Gaudette this offseason from the Wild.

I just went with the donato return

 

[herzausstein]

A guy with 2 points in 12 games seems like exactly what this team needs!!!!!!

wait i thought we already had tons of those

 

[deckercky]

A) what do you think we would be getting for Gaudette

B) we absolutely need defensive forwards, in any part of the line-up

A defensive third C is a bigger need than a defensemen at this point.

Agreed. Canuck's biggest need is a 3C that is responsible defensively, and most importantly, doesn't get caved in possession-wise.

 

[tantalum]

For the love of god, the Canucks don’t need more 3/4th liners

They don’t need the ones they have. They definitely need different ones.

 

[Soundgarden]

What about something around Tolvanen?

Tolvanen's been really good, we just have the world's dumbest coach who benched after his best game for Sean "who" Malone and Michael "who?" McCarron.

You’d swap trenin for Gaudette? I’d probably do it from the Canucks pov

No, I'd want to see what he can do with an actual chance.

If we're going after Gaudette the only thing that makes sense is more interchangeable bottom six guys coming back. Think Jarnkrok or Cousins not Tolvanen or Fabbro.

 

[Jerzey Devil]

Preds fans your GM chose the wrong coach. The sooner he’s gone the better. Don’t give up on good players at this point.

 

[Burke's Evil Spirit]

For the love of god, the Canucks don’t need more 3/4th liners

Disagree. They don't need more 4th liners (they have like, 7), but they definitely need guys that can play ~12 minutes facing some tougher offense. Good teams are 3 lines deep.

Jarnkok would be a fine 3C at a reasonable cap hit - huge upgrade on Sutter.

Not sure why the appetite to trade Gaudette is now, when his value is at its lowest though. Given his weird dietary issues being recently resolved, and finally realizing his future is on the wing, I'd give him a few more months (at least let the new GM make this decision).

This core was terrible for our last coach by the end too. Despite being in their primes, the entire core is complacent and underwhelming and no amount of new coaches or systems is gonna change that. I don't know if they've all gotten too comfortable or secure cause Poile is a shell of himself now but whatever it is, they need to be split up if they want to rejuvenate their careers on different teams.

Is NSH thinking, " Oh, we need more underwhelming Centers to fill out our lineup!" ?

 

[GoldOnGold]

Is NSH thinking, " Oh, we need more underwhelming Centers to fill out our lineup!" ?

Yes

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

Is NSH thinking, " Oh, we need more underwhelming Centers to fill out our lineup!" ?

Poile probably is. Fans are just hoping somebody can dangle a shiny trinket in front of Poile and keep him distracted long enough that Gaudette can be traded to any other team.

 

[57special]

I can't believe how mediocre NSH is, with the lineup they have. I am so used to them having such a solid, good team, at the very least. It seems like the heart has been cut out of them.

 

[Peter Griffin]

For the love of god, the Canucks don’t need more 3/4th liners

Actually, that's exactly what they need, competent ones.

 

[EP to Kuzmenko]

I Fabbro still an untouchable savior of your future defense, or could he be available in a bigger deal?

Something like Gaudette and MDP?

 

[Porter Stoutheart]

Still an untouchable savior. Present and future.

I certainly don't think Fabbro is untouchable but he's absolutely not available for this.

MDP as in Michael DiPietro the goalie? Yeah, he's untouchable.

Then theres no deal to be made. We aren't moving Gaudette for an older polished version of what he already is. We'd be swapping him for a similarly aged player which is what Trenin is or a pick.

Nashville has trade interest in Canucks centre Adam Gaudette: report | Offside

Vancouver, you are more than welcome to any bum on the roster outside of Josi. Let’s make a trade!

Ellis, Ekholm and Forsberg for Gaudette and future considerations!

You said any bum!

The only thing wrong with that is our cap situation.

Kidding of course,

I hope so. We really have no reason to bring in yet another Gaudette type player again.

I really want to see what Trenin can do with an actual competent coach.

I think Fabbro is too high an ask straight up. So, I will ask Nashville fans what the Predators Expansion Draft protection would like like right now since they have Jossi, Ellis, Ekholm, Fabbro on D who are eligible. Would Nashville go 4/4/1?

How much more of an add would be required?

We don't have enough players playing well enough to worry about expansion. I feel like we're more likely to put Duchene and Johansen out as bait for Seattle and go 4/4, but I'm also expecting Ellis and/or Ekholm to be gone if we keep it up.

Add required for who?
