I know Jim is still the GM of the Canucks but even he wouldn't make a trade as bad as that. Hard decline from the Canucks

This is awful ahhahaha

That's kinda awful for Vancouver, which is why Jim Benning jumps on it.

Maybe take one of the second round picks away and it’s close to even but if you want half retained for 2 years you’ll have to take both out. I could see JBB doing something like this though. Similar to when he got Coleman because he had an extra year but it would definitely make next offseason a little more difficult which makes the answer to this no.

Terrible trade for Vancouver. Surely even Benning can't make a trade this bad

This is no where close to Bo’s value. The picks practically cancel each other out, so then it’s just Colton and Rutta (depth players) for a half retained Horvat.

That would not get you Horvat alone….with no retention. Nucks adding a pair of 2nds is hilariously bad.

do foote/ cernak in exchange for rutta, and drop a 2nd and youre looking better
