don't push our luck man lol. we just need brock to keep scoring.
anyone else notice the poise on this kid? no panic at all on the PP. even when a play doesn't work out he keeps his cool and keeps it alive. having boho back on the faceoff dot is definitely huge too.

| The Official 2017/2018 Canucks & NHL Thread
I thought that we want the Canucks to tank in order to get a better chance of getting a good draft position.

I liked those line combinations. Spread out and decent skill to be a threat each line. Now if only they can have the same effort and execution each game, that may bring more fans back into the seats.

wouldnt the canucks getting #1 pick help the NHL revenue to help bottom feeder teams?
Canucks rank 8th in revenue.
If NHL lottery is rigged, they already gave all teams above canucks top 3 picks except NYR since they dont need it yet. https://www.forbes.com/nhl-valuation...rtreverse:true | |

horvat back with the excellent faceoffs; boeser is back to scoring; eriksson is showing a sign of life (we'll see how long that lasts); virtanen slowly gaining more minutes.
this is good. . . . .for now.

So with the poor attendance, I think it's NHL best interest to give Canucks top pick.
Just imagine...
Pettersson, Dahlen, Dahlin
Imagine the Tanev for Liljegren and pick.
Team Sweden 2018 and Team Sweden 2010 in Sedins Eriksson and Edler. lol

Nothing against Europeans, but we need to draft NA prospects IMO.

^We have a good mix of Euro and NA prospects in the cupboard. While I would have agreed with this years ago, take the best player available regardless of nationality at this point.

I like Tanev but I just feel like we're only going to see him play half the season.
I don't know if you can pull off a seth jones for johansen or larsson for hall trade with Tanev.

People can throw his ahl stats at me, but hes playing on the best team in the AHL, mostly against bad ahl competitionn..so he should be doing something. On the other hand hes been injured a couple times already, and seemed weak in the WJs. He was also handing over the puck, and making horrible decisions during the WJs that lead to bad goals against for Sweden.
I don't think he will become good enough defensively for the NHL
Tanev is a top4 on almost any team in the league, higher on many others. He has a cheap contract with 2 years left, which the canucks could even retain.
Hes better than Hamonic even with the injury concerns and Hamonic got a first and 2 2nds from a team that already had a solid D core

he's not over hyped, at all. He was supposed to be the top D picked in last years draft but fell because he had mono. I think he would be worth a shot to trade him for Tanev.

he didn't fall only because of mono. his defensive game has a lot of issues.
similar to kylington.. when he was originally supposed to go #2 behind McDavid.. but they found deficiencies there too and then it became the eichel/McDavid story

If the Canucks trade Tanev, the already sparse blueline will be a complete shit show. Canucks need a sense of stability for the young guys. I would keep him for another year at least, and then judge whether he is expendable.
At this point, the best move is to trade Gudbranson for a pick and prospect and call it a day. Anyway we could trade Gagner as well? Would rather keep Vanek than Gagner at this point.
