I like Guentzel, but the Canucks blew their load on Lindholm, IMO. If they do go after another high end rental, I think this team will be a 1 and done team.
Can't keep sending out young players/prospects/picks and expect to find cheap players in free agency to help fill out the roster.
Very Benning like

I agree. The cupboard is starting to fill & wouldn’t risk a big trade. Long term is looking better. JR/PA are not to be taken for granted so who knows.

Pretty much. Depth adds or target a young player that's under contract.

Speaking of such things, Phil Kessel signing has to be imminent.......
- NewYorkNuck

I’m with you on that. Conditioning up & the call has to be done soon. A minor trade is more likely.

Yep I've also made that comparison. Hate to agree lol but pretty much spot-on. I see a 1st or maybe 2nd round bounce coming. Demko can only take them so far but it's been a fun ride this year.

I’ll put it on team D & the PP waking up will be the decider.

General Manager Patrik Allvin announced today that D Guillaume Brisebois has been placed on waivers for the purpose of assignment to Abbotsford (AHL).

Man ! Would Crosby and JT be a force , one could dream 🙏🙏😍🙏🙏✨️

Brian Lawton on Lindholm:

I'm told they've had discussions in Vancouver to try to extend him and it didn't go very far.

I can’t really see the Canucks trading for and then flipping Lindholm a few weeks later.
Unless the preliminary discussions were so rough…maybe this is just Alvin flexing again.
Sign for cheap or we’re shipping you off to Boston.

I said weeks ago that my preference would be to go all in on a Stanley cup leader (like a Crosby) or add a few depth pieces.

I wasn’t a fan of the idea of a lindholm or a guentzel trade given the rumoured costs.

If we could get both?
In PA we trust.

Don't be surprised if Elias Lindholm is held out of tonight's game against the Kings for trade-related reasons.

Pens roster is a very old group.

Miller doesn't like him.

It’s interesting how he hasn’t really got an audition w Miller and Warrior

Guentzel is a Canuck tomorrow. Remember this. I am no DubiousDonnie with fake Aquaman lunches. 👍

I'm gonna wait til Ek says something before I believe any rumors
- NewYorkNuck

Ask him to go on sportsnet again behind the curtain.

I'd rather give the entire farm for Crosby than half of it for his winger.
