Pensées?

I’d give up our 1st and Brzustewicz for him
Buy low.
He’s a 6th overall pick he’d cost us like lekkerimaki and a first at least I’d assume because our 1st is a low pick, so probably not unless we could fleece them somehow
His numbers look middling but not terrible. Anyone else know how good he actually is? I love buying low.
Sounds like it would be a Cutter Gauthier return lmao which is ironic cuz they went 5th and 6th the same year.
Cutter Gauthier for Jamie Drysdale and 2025 2nd
For us it would probably be:
David Jiricek for Vasili Podkolzin, Hunter Brusztewicz, and a 2024 1st
Likely because RD is much more valuable than a LW
Having this trade through and assuming Willander doesn’t make the jump for another 2 years; in about 3 years:
– Hughes Hronek
– Soucy Jiricek
– Zadorov Willander
Every team will be trying for this guy, and down vote away but it would take me all of 2 secs to Trade Willander + for him
This is most definitely a player that we should have our sights on if he’s indeed available. I remember he was highly touted during the draft.
I’d rather use our 1st on someone who can help us now and later (like a Guentzel trade + extension), rather than a guy like Jiricek who wouldn’t have a spot in our lineup but could be something down the road
I think our days of taking random change of scenery dudes for a second round pick are over if we’re first in the league.
Yes and No. He is every bit as good/better than any of Vans prospects.. so we would need to send them a pretty preemo package.
And then you’re moving out assets that can be used to re-tool the existing roster.. versus a player who might be another 1-2 seasons away from being an everyday NHL’er (but is still a very legit prospect).
Unless CBJ really likes Lekkeremakki/Willander and would do roughly 1-1… hard to see it working out.
Just FYI, Pascal Vincent is their head coach, not their Vice President.
Jiricek would be pricy to target, and I honestly don’t know what we would move for him. Can’t see PA trading our first this year.
They would ask for Willander and a small add on.
The Canucks need a top 6 player more than a defenseman.
Kuzmenko to Chicago for a 2nd, 3rd, and a 5th.
Lindholm to the Canucks for a late 1st, and 5th.
Plan the parade.
It would cost a lot. He was a top ten pick. But having said that, I think Vancouver should look into this if they think he can help them, not just now down the road.
Unhappy or not, seems doubtful he’d be available
BJ’s need to clean house, not sell their youth
Hes fire in chel 23 lol
CBJ should probably axe Jarmo and Pascal before trading away Jiricek
Jarmo’s days are for sure numbered and the new regime will want their own coach so it’ll be a brand new FO by next season anyways.
Totally, but CBJ would be drunk to trade him. I just don’t see how he’d be available unless a total overpayment was made to acquire him
Definitely worth targeting but I disagree we would have to give that
much ( 1st, podz, hb)Canucks are trading from a position of strength..they’re tops in the league, dj doesn’t sound happy to be in dumpster fire cbj and the organization doesn’t seem to value him as much as they should. Gotta do it soon if they’re targeting him
This is a perfect move for NOW and the FUTURE this is exactly what the canucks should be looking to do.
Joni Jurmo + a First
During draft I was screaming at TV to announce a trade where we traded for that 5th or 6th to draft him.
I remember some scouts comparing him to a player like a Seider and I still see that in him being only 20yo. For me its go for it, if its something like Lekke, Hunter or even Raty and 1st and maybe some low end prospect or Podz, 1st and mid prospect
