True, but if the Canucks have over 31 million dollars to work with next season, then they'll be set to re-sign their core young players and sign a good supporting cast.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yztnuK</b></div><div>no way jim benning signs Hoffman at any price or term</div></div>

Not even for a one year bet at 5 million?

Sutter's trade is to make room for the free agent signings. This is a scenario in which Canucks decide to go for the Cup this upcoming season.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BCAPP</b></div><div>He's a 2-3 dman. A complementary top pairing dman or good second pairing. Just like Myers, Muzzin, whomever.

The Vegas move was dumb and they got themselves screwed as capspace is super expensive today when 2 weeks ago it was much cheaper (see Staal to Detroit)

But honestly Vegas will likely regret this. They had a good enough team for a cup but the bounces didn't go. So they convinced themselves they had to go big fish hunting instead of accepting sometimes it doesn't go your way.

They're over tinkering.</div></div>

I just felt like Schmidt's numbers were inflated by playing for VGK. I'll be rooting for Schmidt nonetheless. Hopefully the Canucks and Golden Knights get what they envisioned next season.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yztnuK</b></div><div>1. Draft picks are expandable assets that should be used to supplement EP/QH with age relevant NHL players. not wasting waiting for years of development on a draft pick.EP/QH need help now
2. canucks actually have Kesler on LITR giving them $6.5m extra cap.
3. they need roughly $22-25 to sign important players and supplement the roster next off season, this roster has over $22m next off season.</div></div>


1) Doesn't seem like the Canucks should be going all in this season. Next 2 seasons seems like the more appropriate time to make big moves and make a run for the Cup. Canucks still need more high-end prospects to continue building the team sustainably. If the Canucks are a playoff team, then it would make sense to give up picks to acquire missing pieces.
2) Didn't realize the cap space result didn't already include LTIR.
3) Next season, the Canucks' cap space is less than 24 million, and they'll be 7-10 vacant spots to fill in the roster (2.4 to 3.4 million per vacant spot). EP/QH/TD will all be included in that group of players too.
