Zub is the best piece of that deal.

Tierney is the 2nd, and youre asking retention?

OTT declines

Tierney at 50% retention = a second

Zub =/= Lockwood + Woo

Ottawa declines.

Don't think Woo even cracks Ottawa's top-20 prospects
Don't think Lockwood even cracks Ottawa's top-30 prospects

Seriously, the Canucks pool is terrible for a team that has won 1 playoff round in the last decade and made the playoffs once in the last 6 years

They shouldn't move Podkolzin, Rathbone or Dipietro and it requires at least one of those pieces to get Zub. Ottawa doesn't need Dipietro at all with the 3-headed monster they have (Gustavsson/Sogaard/Merilainen). Do they need Jack Rathbone? Not really, they have a similar smallish D-man with higher pedigree who is basically an outcast in Erik Brannstrom. This leaves Vasili Podkolzin. I don't mind paying Zub to get him... but that would leave a big hole on the Sens RD

Lol, people are valuing Zub way too much

Sounds like you dont watch Zub...
