Quoting: GFD1996
no offence - but all those wingers are significantly worse than Johnsson other than JT whereas Ferland is more of a third line grinder - I think Johnsson would make some real good chemistry with Petterson and could perhaps be utilized on the right
Agreed 100% Johnsson would be a good piece to add but I think our current team needs Stecher more than Johnsson. If Toronto wanted to add some

Totally agree that Johnsson would be our 2nd best left wing but in terms of asset management I'd prefer to keep Stecher and not have to waive and possibly lose a serviceable NHL winger. This makes the trade effectively Stecher + Leivo/Roussel for Johnsson which I don't think it's good business for the Canucks.
What we need is a trade that converts some of our surplus depth forwards into a pick/prospect. Would be open to trading away Pearson, Virtanen, Baertschi, Goldobin, Sutter, Ferland, Eriksson, Motte, Leivo, Schaller, Beagle or Roussel.
