Y’all canucks fans are delusional. Yes horvat is having a great year but he is a UFA which never gets close to the return fans want and also he has declined every single contract offer van has sent to him. He clearly doesn’t want to be there anymore as van has been stuck in mediocrity his whole time being there, they don’t know how to build a team or manage cap correctly and clearly he is realizing that, especially with how quick to jump the gun in Boudreau they were im sure he’s real done with van now.

Canucks may want 3 big assets for him but I Highly doubt they get that.

Where does he even fit? Everyone healthy he does not crack the top 9 and his game foes not work on 4th at all.

I don’t see them having any interest. And neither team has the ability to make this trade and gain cap space which is what both need.

The only saving grace is Boston could likely flip him for a late pick to a rebuilding team. They can’t with Smith. But EDM can do that on their own.</div></div>

Well with debrusk currently still injured and probably still gonna miss another 8-12 games I’d gladly try JP out on either the 1st or 3rd line.

If he doesn’t work out their or doesn’t outperform freddy then play him 4th line, he’s physical, fast and good defensively. He’d be one of the more skilled 4th liners out there.

Quite frankly though I see JP breaking out in a different system, Him and Edmonton haven’t been a match from the start, the amount of drama and trade rumours that surrounded him there after his rookie season I could see him not really caring how he does there he’s on the way out anyways

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OilersRule</b></div><div>Can't have it all, they'd have to search FA (again, on the presumption that neither Horvat or Pasta take $10+M contracts)

Horvat and Coyle would set up the 1-2 C position for the foreseeable future, especially with Bergeron and Krejci getting on in years, and even keeping either of them on 1-2 year contracts can help the transition.</div></div>


Would rather just keep our stacked D then improve an offence that is currently top 2 in the league, and possibly screw over our top 4.

If B’s choose to upgrade all they need is a stronger middle 6 forward we don’t need to go all out.

Nyquist/ roslovic guys like that are more in bruins price range and would solidify our forward core.

Also highly doubt horvat takes a super team friendly deal in Boston he has no ties to us and will 100% cash in on this overproducting contract year he is having, just like every late 20/ early 30 yr old player does

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Userunknown</b></div><div>That does absolutely nothing for both teams. They have the same cap hit and both are on expiring contracts. Neither would be re-signed.

I don’t see anything in the works. Just the internet overreacting to a silly tweet.</div></div>

That’s the risk you take both players have little value and both teams are hoping that the player they acquire performs better in a new system. Bruins don’t have the cap to just move picks for him and they aren’t retaining on Reilly when they can just buy him out next year for cheaper.

The only way I could see a deal if there is one in the works is cap for cap struggling player for struggling player. It’s not like these type of trades or new or uncommon in the league they happen quite often

Nyquist would be a decent addition. Would prefer to move a prospect rather then the 3rd but not a big deal.

The only thing I see though is nyquist is more of a playmaker which that 3rd line doesn’t really need. Hall is a great play driver and great passer and doesn’t utilize his shot as much as he should, coyle is that 2 way dominant guy and again doesn’t shoot as much as he should both have great shots but seem to like to try and make a flashy pass rather then just take the shot so for me I’d rather have a guy who is confident in his shot and wants to score. The playmaking and puck handling side of that line is covered so I’d be more intrigued in guys like
Olofsson/ sprong/ labanc/ kubalik/ saad/ raddysh.
Guys around the same price range that are more shoot first players and will probably produce at a higher rate on the B’s 3rd line where they will face easier match-ups and will most likely have better linemates to get them the puck
