Sharks don’t consider moving either for Myers

You logic is so bad. The Devils got Miller a place holder, they arent gonna flip him. have two rookie Dmen is not a idea they want. Nemec is AHL bound

Miller isn't getting traded. If Nemec makes the team, Smith is the odd man out.

Jacob Bernard-Docker 100% won't hit waivers unless he completely lost it during the summer. He just got a 1 way 2 years extension and is in the plans as a defensive RHD, which is a need

Lassi Thomson however doesn't seem to be in the plans. As of a ridiculous amount of 13 players will need PP time so even if they trade one (Kubalik makes the most sense), Thomson still wouldn't sniff a PP minute. He's not a bad prospect at all, actually got a pretty nice offensive skillset but might never be more than "ok" defensively. He will need PP to show his value in the NHL. Ideally, and that's what I would target as the GM, he's traded for a young forward prospect in the same waivers position

Why would Ruhwedel be a bad fit for POJ or Smith? The limited time he’s had with POJ they’ve been decent.

Perhaps someone like Nils Hoglander who could fill in for the role that Kubalik would play if he is traded. Which I doubt he is because he was the headliner of the DeBrincat trade and it would look semi-bad PR wise to trade a player you just traded for in a huge trade. He seems to have lost his way in the Canucks organization and might benefit from a change of scenery.

Kubalik was not the headliner of the DeBrincat return, the 1st was BY FAR the best piece received.

1st + 2nd (Kubalik) + 3rd (Sebrango) + 4th


That said, I don't think the Canucks would trade Hoglander for Thomson... Maybe part of a bigger deal... Sokolov + Thomson for Hoglander? And then we trade Kubalik for a pick

Tkachuk - Stutzle - Tarasenko
Joseph - Norris - Batherson
Greig - Pinto - Giroux
Hoglander - Kastelic - MacEwen

SJ says you can both for Myers and your 2024 1st
