So what would you value a far superior player like Bo Horvat who is having a career year and has more goals than Monahan has points?

Nope. He'll EASILY get a 1st or we'll keep him.

I seriously doubt that...but we'll see.

Canucks cannot afford to keep Kuzmenko and Horvat unless they trade 2 big pieces which is probably what they will try to do unfortunately. That would mean the Canucks keep 2 players while losing 2 players meaning that they will be even worse next year. Doesn't make too much sense. Management has got to realize we need to rebuild

I find it funny how some people were sleeping the Sabres 1 2 Center combo and now Thompson and Cozens both look amazing. Thompson especially is just insane. Hes like a forward version of Tyler Myers if Myers were good.

I personally Think vancouver will attempt to keep Kuz and Trade Horvat + Garland. Just feels like that teams needs some fresh energ. Kuz is still new enough to where he can be a core peice for them IMO. I also dont just see them full on Fireselling everyone, I think their goal is still be a competive team With Petey + Hughes

Were you messaging like this last year before the Chiarot or Lehkonen or even Kulak trades? It happens every year, not sure why people doubt their values come TD

GM's aren't just gonna forget that Monahan was a cap dump in the summer

It's hard to judge because if he keeps up that goal pace, has there ever been a TD move that big? Have to assume a 1st + a top prospect at the minimum.



Copp got a 1st, 2nd, prospect
Giroux got a 1st, 3rd, decent prospect
Foligno got a 1st, 4th

All those players were significantly worse than Horvat in the year they were traded. Horvat for a 1st, 2nd, top prospect is not unreasonable

Keep Kuzmenko, Trade Horvat + Garland/Miller like I said

Not disagreeing if Horvat can keep up his current pace. I doubt he does, but it's feasible

Unlike you, I dont have the time to search for it anway, but, ive recalled you may have said that

I think Timo Meier is the top forward potentially available at the TDL. He seems to be built for the postseason.

Recent history suggests they won't go nuts and trade like 3 core players. They've shown zero interest in rebuilding thus far. I think things are turning in that direction, but we'll see.

Happens every year

Tbf Chiariot is a DMan which are typically a Hotter comodity on Trade Deadline Day

Lehky didnt go for a ridiculous price really. Good return for both teams

Kulak wasnt a bad price either

With his history, no it doesn't.

Why are we looking at his history if it's behind him? Of course we have to get to the TD with no issues first, but if he gets there, nobody should be concerned about his history for a single playoff run.

Looking at advanced numbers both were great players, but Lehky was a career middle 6 defensive forward. Got a former 1st + 2nd.

Kulak was a career 3rd pairing defender that got a 2nd.

Monahan is a former PPG forward, a very good faceoff taker who will easily get a 1st +
