That is terrible. The little cap VAN saves is instantly lost getting useless players like Klingberg. Klingberg is just a PP specialist at this point

I think no, Pearson/Poolman are likely LTIR, and while dumping the rest is nice, it's not worth dropping that many spots.

Pearson and Poolman will be on LTIR so no need to dump them

Beauvillier’s value is probably similar to Kovacevic

Even with retention I’d rather have Garland over Hoffman

Myers would likely cost a mid round pick to dump

While the cap space is nice, there’s not enough in it to drop 20 spots imo

Also not a fan of the free agent signings

Just as a Habs fan, you're screwing yourself over here

Seems like the Canucks are giving up the 2 best players, and the higher first round pick. What is the incentive to make this deal? Pearson + Poolman are on LTIR so there is no reason to move them. Myers expires in 1 year. This is terrible for Vancouver
