Rumor: Toffoli deal looks to be done?

[Michoulicious]

What value did he give up? Tyler Madden? For a top six winger. Good trade for both sides imo.

Madden, Schallen, 2nd and now 4th.

Pretty good haul for LA.

 

[Michoulicious]

He gave up our 4th best prospect and a 2nd lol

and a 2022 4th.

 

[CupfortheSharks]

It’s going to be an 8 year deal. Book it.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Madden, Schallen, 2nd and now 4th.

Pretty good haul for LA.

Great deal for both teams imo. If you meant Schaller he was a cap dump on Vancouvers end.

Madden, Schallen, 2nd and now 4th.

Pretty good haul for LA.

Madden stings and so does the 2nd.

but if they get 4 good years out of Toffoli then I can deal with that

How can I forget

 

[Nucker42]

Why are the Canucks tying up cap in Toffoli?

because he’s a proven scorer and was a ppg player with the Canucks?

 

[Canucks LB]

I have given more than my fair share of Jim Benning is awful posts, but trading a Cap Dump, Tyler Madden a 2nd and a 2020 4th rounder for Tyler Toffoli is not one of them.

Of course, assuming he signs.

 

[NoRaise4Brackett]

Probably will be like a lesser Eriksson disaster within a year or two tbh.

Wouldn't count on it. Eriksson was a bad fit, right from his first goal as a Canuck... into his own net.

Toffoli on the other hand, fit in and produced right away.

 

[Langdon Alger]

4 years is my prediction. A little under 5 million per season.

I’m not a Benning fan either. But revamping 50% of the top 6 in the last year plus a bit at the cost of a first (Miller), Madden and a second and a fourth (Toffoli) and Gudbranson (Tanner Pearson) has been some of his best work.
His work on the D unfortunately hasn’t been as good.

Arguably are 2nd best prospect and at worse 3rd. Who's better than Madden other than Pod and arguably Hoglander?

 

[Canucks LB]

Rathbone and Rafferty I have higher than Madden

Is Vancouver not planning on bringing Tanev back?

Apparently basically no conversations, I think he is gone.

I’d stay he was our third best behind Podzolkin and Hoglander. But fifth most important as he projected as a winger where the team is deep. So I’d have him behind Rathbone and Juolevi in terms of value to the organization.
But he’s definitely a good prospect which is why I said it was a good deal for both teams.

That seems like a big mistake to me How will he be replaced?

 

[Rowlet]

He probably won't and the Canucks will get scored on a lot this year,

 

[Boondock]

Unless Benning has another D signing up his sleeve, this would be a mistake for Vancouver unless Tanev is asking for too much term or cap. I could see Rafferty replacing Stetcher, but we have no one that can replace Tanev in our system.

Is Woo ready for bottom pairing yet?

Stecher, Myers, Woo?

 

[Boondock]

Is Woo ready for bottom pairing yet?

Stecher, Myers, Woo?

I think it would be Rafferty, he had a really good offensive year in Utica - 45pts in 57 games I think

 

[bandwagonesque]

Where did you read this? I've seen no reporting on Tanev one way or the other, which I suppose might indicate there's little contact between the parties, but no one's reported that no conversations are taking place as far as I've seen.

 

[Rowlet]

Is Woo ready for bottom pairing yet?

Stecher, Myers, Woo?

Brogan Rafferty is closer, then probably Jack Rathbone, then Woo.

 

[krutovsdonut]

3 x 4.5m is what i would like to see at most, but i am resigned to more term. honestly i think the league should stop handing out term to late 20s wingers. they seem to turn into retirement contracts about 80% of the time.

i can see why toffoli and his agent are in a hurry. in a soft market, toffoli may find himself dropping down a weight class.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

That seems like a big mistake to me How will he be replaced?

Short answer is, he won’t.
But something has to give with all the bad contracts that still have at least a year to run. We can maybe afford two out of the three of Toffoli, Tanev and Markstrom. I think if the contract discussions go poorly with Markstrom they’ll move on to Tanev. But he’s clearly third on the list. At almost 31 with his injury history I would be reluctant to go too long term. But he’s been a great guy to play with Quinn Hughes.
