[Curufinwe]

Matt Read has scored 20 goals.

 

[M2Beezy]

Problem is once 20 goal scorers come to Vancity they turn into 10 goal scorers

 

[dechire]

In exchange for what ? Hopefully not a draft pick or any young talent because they need to cling onto those

 

[Sarcastic]

Wow a team that can't score is looking to add a scorer. Mind blowing.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Joe Colborne is a former 20 goal scorer who for some unknown reason has been on the Avs 4th line this season.


He's actually looked pretty good for us so most fans dont know why he's getting 4th line minutes.



We did just sign him, but I would venture to guess if he sticks on the 4th line for the next few weeks the Avs might look at moving him come January.

How about trade Brock Boeser and 2017 2nd round pick to Arizona for Radeem Verbata and a 2018 4th round pick???

-Benning

So get a 40 goal scorer.

 

[PM]

Nothing excites fans quite like a 20 goal scorer. Can't wait to see which picks and prospects we throw in the trash this time.

 

[KingsCourt]

Well, no other team is looking for that

Makes sense

He has traded 4 or 5 2nd round picks in under 3 years.

 

[Nuckles]

Just rebuild already...even the more casual fans are starting to realize that we need to rebuild.

Most teams would not mind adding 20 goal scorer

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

makes sense unless the Canucks give up picks and futures

which is what Benning will do

 

[StuckOutHere]

I'm waiting for Benning face.

 

[Breakers]

Big difference between actively looking and not mind adding.

You have it all wrong.



Iginla

Iginla

You can have Iggy for free. He got 20 last year.

If Benning is a truly awful GM(which is possible) maybe he'd be interested in pending UFA Patrick Sharp who is a 20-40 goal scorer. Clearly a UFA isn't what Vancouver needs but it could be an option. Personally I wouldn't as a Dallas fan but half the fanbase is in tank mode so maybe it could work

 

[dbaz]

I'm guessing subban would go as part of the deal

 

[Satan]

Cody Eakin scored 19 in 14-15, surely he counts


good prairie boy too

 

[trellaine201]

Radim Vrbata scored 30 with the Canucks then the next year put him on the third line lol, then didnt want him.

 

[haseoke39]

Average NHL team has 3.5 of those.

So let's see a package worth a low end first liner.

 

[tiny103]

Someone take Sbisa please.

How much salary can we eat right now?
