Aside from Petey and Hughes everyone else should be considered for trade if it makes sense. No different than in Buffalo with Eichel and Dahlin and then there’s everyone else. Same with Edm and McDavid and Leon. Go around the NHL. You have to give to get.
words are important. Just like people knocking Linden for retool vs rebuild.
exploring or shopping actually means they are taking the initiative to contact other teams. Rather than being called about him or have his name come up when you make a call on another player.
But really, you can’t call about someone like Parayko, Dumba, etc for example without Boeser’s name coming up.
a lot of nothing but at the same time these media guys will claim credit for breaking it early if it does go down when most time these things don’t.
“Canucks are exploring”. He didn’t say “we’re exploring”. He said “are exploring” - present tense. And who with the Canucks would be “exploring” trades? Benning and Wisebrod, right? So either Sekeras’ source is Benning or Wisebrod, or he’s making this all up.
Yes. If we are to read Sekeres (who is known to be careful with his words) literally, then it does seem to suggest that the Canucks are "exploring" the possibility of trading Boeser by actually making calls to other teams or sending feelers out. Given where the Canucks were at, the timing does seem weird. You would think Benning would at least wait and see how Boeser and his team performs. Still, Sekeres doesn't have the reputation of making things up. Maybe he's fed this information by say an outgoing Brackett?
