Canucks pass. Boqvist isn’t really the type of RHD we need

So you want gudder then, we can swing that too haha

1. Skip Duchene; he's just taking up a spot, Backlund can be our 1C since Duchene isn't really a center anymore, and Sillinger needs to play center, not 4LW (also let's get Tex off the 4th line while we're at it, yuck)
2. Skip the retention on Backlund and keep one of Bemstrom or Foudy
3. Trade Roslovic elsewhere to free up funds and a winger spot
4. Trade Peeke instead of Boqvist

1. I can go without the duch, he's just the most offensively talented guy out there for that spot.(for cheap)
I like backlund , but he's definitely not a 1C , he's a 2C/3C. But Jenner is also not a 1C and he did okay last year stepping in, so him or backlund are interchangeable there.
2.sure.
3.sure.
4.ARE YOU CRAZY lol

1. I know Backlund isn't a true 1C; it'd be more like having three 2Cs (Backlund, Fantilli, Jenner if he plays in the middle).
2. Peeke is a guy who's valuable only insofar as he blocks shots. Boqvist has HUGE upside. Would much rather trade Peeke.

I’d imagine Van would have more interest in peeke than boqvist

@PantsOffnJacket SEE?!?!

Boqvist also has more insulated value imo. Honestly, I'm not sure either will be here long term with the Severson deal and all the prospects, but Peeke is definitely the priority to move imo. If they decide to move Boqvist at this time next year, I don't think it's very likely his value will go down, while that could definitely happen for Peeke.

🧐😳😳😳

That's kinda why I'd like to keep Peeke, he's just only coming into own. And it's clear other teams and their fans can see it. (Constant trades for him)
But I'd have to agree Boqvist does have the next level potential, he was drafted high for a reason.
