Good trade👍
Sign big Z
Idk how I feel about this other than neat, that’s a good sum of money off the books

15% retention is not a big deal. I can live with that.
15% retained is fine tbh we still got like 21mil to work with
Jake Guentzel prepare to learn Vancouverese buddy
Wait it’s a 2027 2nd now? That’s so much better than giving up the 2025 2nd.
15% retention isn’t great isn’t awful. Just over 700k in retention?
Allvin just took a diarrhea dump on Yzerman giving up a 2nd to get rid of a top 4 dman. I was worried the market to trade cap would be fucked after that bone-headed trade
It’s wild to being going into July hella flush.
Good to get 4 million cap space. Let Allvin cook
Goodbye sweet princes 🥲
Hello future 2027 pick to be traded away soon.
Goodbye Ilya. I’ll never forget wanting to die after you missed on an open net in game 7. A true Canuck
We now have ~~$22.7M~~ $20.7Min cap space after retention. No retention would have been $23.4M. That is totally fine and still an outstanding trade.
Time to make some big moves.
Edit: Stay in school kids and pay attention in math class
I’m an idiot lol.
About 700k in retention for two years and the 2nd is in 2027. I’ll take that for 4m in cap now
Wait it’s a 2027 2nd? Maybe the retain salary moved it from 2025 to a 2027 pick.
Pretty wild that Chicago was willing for a 2027 2nd.
This is a tidy piece of business by Alvin 👏
Now bring home Zaddy and Guentzel!!
Looks like Allvin likes to use the « downgrade a 2nd round pick to a 4th » strategy.
He already did it once before with the 1st + 2nd for Hronek + 4th trade.
When was the last time we had this kind of competency in Canucks Management?
hope this lets us keep the Z and Dak and get Guentzel!!
That’s really a perfectly acceptable deal.
They have to land a significant scorer in UFA though. This team is all in on the next 2-3 years with these sorts of moves and they have to make it count.
CHEF ALVIN
By the way, anyone furiously refreshing the comments section of the Canucks IG post for Bublés spicy responses? 😂
Too bad Lafferty couldn’t have continued his early season form, as he was flying for a bit.
So out of Petey’s 4 most common linemates this past season, 3 of them were traded (Kuzy, Miky, Lafferty).
Let’s pray they get him that all star winger to play with next season. *cough* Guentzel. 🙏🙏
A good deal. No retention would have been great, but after watching what Detroit did – this somehow looks like a steal.
What we do with the cap space will now come into play, and it’s a good problem to have. I’m actually looking forward to July 1st now
And that is how the Canucks acquired Guentzel, son.
Retaining $700k sucks but on the bright side we just paid ~50 draft positions for $4M in cap space. This is a big win. The Yzerplan got dick all for his arguably better contract with Walman
The Hawks are likely to still suck or be at least mid while we should be a top-10 team so the pick swap isn’t that bad
So…chance to keep Big Z and Joshua now?
tidy piece of business
Allvin is hot.
Guentzal come on down buddy!
**Vancouver**: Clears about $4 million in cap space over the next 2 seasons.
**Chicago**: Buys low on a player that scored at a 20 goal/82 pace over the last 3 years, while moving up ~60 spots in the draft.
I like this deal for both sides.
I’ll miss screaming “Ilya Monkey man Mickheavy” every time he misses the next. And I’ll miss Sam laffertys bald ass head
I hope he at least asked them to throw Bedard in.
I really hope now we can lock up Zadorov and Myers. Then get that too 6 scoring winger for Petey.
Please sign Zadorov!!
Allvin is cookinnnnnn let’s go
REALLLY dont like the salary retention. But. We needed out from Mik. Gives us a chance to get Zadorov back and convince Guentzel to come here. Hell. Might even be able to use the spare money from Blueger to bring Joshua back. Best 3rd line in hockey.
Normally adding a 2nd round is such a Benning move, but for this: I like it. It’s 3 years into the future, we’re getting rid of players we do not need. It’s such a good trade for both teams. Chef Allvin cooking up again
This is such a huge win.
Jake Guentzal, welcome to the Canucks.
What a wonderfully cromulent trade.
Watch him play with Bedard and become a 30 goal scorer now 😂
ALLVIN’S KITCHEN ABSOLUTELY CRANKING OUT GOURMET SERVINGS RIGHT NOW
Well shit, including Poolman’s LTIR and Tolopilo going back to Abby, that’s $20M in cap space now for 2 wingers, 1 D, a backup tendy (Silovs?), and three press box slots.
If we were the frontrunners in the Guentzel sweepstakes we’re probably locks for it now. Holy shit.
No Bedard, what a bust by Allvin and Co.
People hating on him but I liked him a lot in his first year in Vancouver. He was perfect as a complementary piece on the third line. One wonders what could’ve been without the injury.
