  1. Great asset management

    Give a 3rd to move Dickinson to Chicago

    Give a 2nd to move Pearson’s $ to Montreal

    Give a 1st, 2 prospects ( Dmen as if if their cupboards are over flowing ) and Kuzy to Calgary for a rental in Lindholm

    Please yes give up more draft picks for stoopid signings

  2. You guys are also forgetting that there's guys like Joshua and Zedorov that the Canucks would like to resign, and I'd much rather give up a few picks and/or prospects to keep Joshua at 3.5-4 mil then Mikheyev at $4.75 mil. Joshua, if he can repeat last season and there's no reason why he can't, or even better it, then he's infinitely better value to have a guy who can score 18 or more goals, hit, check, playmake, kill penalties and turn the momentum around when the team is struggling in a game. Joshua has chemistry with the team, Mikheyev clearly does not. Mikheyev is also pushing 30, and due to start the downward swing of his production curve, while Joshua's still under 30, with room to improve.

  3. I am no pro scout or anything, but I am quite confident in saying that a torn ACL does not impede your ability to pick corners, it just slows you down. Mik was flying in the last half of the year and getting open a lot…. and then burying his chances into the crests of goalies jerseys. This is why I call him the Russian Raymond. He gets tons of scoring chances and only converts about 2% of them. Maybe less.

  4. With the price it will cost there may not be much choice but to wait. Try and wave him and send him down to the minors if need be. Surley he can score there……
    Moving him towards the deadline when he has showed signs of life might be the move. If we package him with a pick and get something back that is preferable to him and 2nd to wherever for future considerations.
