Proposal: Vancouver Canucks-Winnipeg Jets

[Vancouver_2010]

As a Jets fan... Its Horvat plus and that plus better be one of hughes or juolevi..

Like i said, keep him then

 

[JTmillerForA1stLOL]

We are already thin at centre. Why on earth would we trade our best centre for a dman?

Where did I say we should? I said the value is fair. I wouldn't do it, but I can recognize the value of each player is probably similar.

 

[JTmillerForA1stLOL]

You'd be wrong about the value. Horvat on his own would not be good enough to get Trouba.

I disagree.

No. It is you who is wrong about value. Trouba alone isnt worth more than Horvat straight up.

An average 2C doesn't get you a top pairing RHD.

 

[jay caufield forhead]

Does the name Jack Hughes mean anything to you? The Jets would be severely increasing their chances at getting Hughes if they made this trade. Lets use some common sense guys.

got to get that pick first which is less likely than you are acting like

Sweet irony that you used a facepalm emoticon given the content you posted.

Horvat isnt an "average 2 C". Hes a Great 1B level center. Try watching him play games before you make a fool of yourself even further.

lol@ Bo Horvat being an average 2C.

LMAO you're post is ****** awful.

 

[kittiecarlyle]

I disagree.

You may disagree which is fine of course but you would still be incorrect.

'Great 1B center' is a dumb term that is overused around here, it basically sounds like very good 2C (on most NHL teams), which I'd say is correct right now. That being said he's a very good 2C that is big, on a very reasonable deal and is still tracking up. I wouldn't be surprised to see him cement himself as a solid top line center this season and would be mildly shocked if he doesn't by the end of next season, but calling him one already seems like jumping the gun a bit.

Do the Ottawa Senators mean anything to you? Or, more accurately, the Colorado Avalanche?

FYI Canucks fans Winnipeg hasn't been your farm team since the Thrashers became the Jets & we reclaimed the Moose & their staff.
It seems to coincide with the last time Vancouver was a good team & made it past the 1st round.

Theres about a 90% chance that pick will be top 3 and becomes better than Trouba. Your a rebuilding team. Shut up, tank, and get the better younger player.

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Why on earth would the Canucks wan't to do this? Not even sure why the Jets do this except potential high lottery pick.

I don't disagree that they should keep their picks but I'm pretty sure if you listed the last ten years of top 3 picks, 90% wouldn't be better than Trouba

It's not a "dumb" term, nor is it "overused". Get over it. Might as well say "number one center" is overr-used while you're at it. Horvat has shown he's capable of driving the play for a top line against top pairing D this past season but just isn't consistent enough so he's a 1B, similar to what Krejci was in 2011.

Especially when you consider the Oilers have had 90% of those top 3 picks!

I Agree that I went a bit overboard on that lol

 

[Saitama]

Please stop putting the Canucks 2019 1st in offers. There is no way they deal it. Absolutely zero chance. The Canucks want a chance at Hughes and have another brother combo.

Do people also forget that Vancouver hosts the draft next year. Not a good look to host the draft and trade your top pick

This right here is why any Vancouver proposal that includes their 1st should be locked up immediately. There's just no way they are trading that pick.

 

[VancouverCanucks36]

As a long time Canucks fan, would love a d-man like Jacob Trouba. I'm not sure why Winnipeg would take that chance on Jack Hughes, a very small probability. Great trade idea, though. 78Oil, very good idea for Canucks to keep their pick, could be top 3!!!

You just joined hf and made your first post to say what a great trade idea this is. Hmmmmm

 

[Thorvat]

Benning hasn't traded a first round pick since he joined the Canucks. I don't think he is going to start now especially with the draft in Van next year.
