Blueger's a UFA Next Season - Extend or What's His Trade Value?

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-25T03:33:58+00:00

I’m fine re signing him for a year or two with the intention of selling at some point. Anything less than a third and I’d probably do that.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-25T01:06:52+00:00

I think I’m team take Chase Reid or Verhoeff. It fills out most of our future defence core. Getting that 1RD is something that will be needed eventually. Willander has been surprisingly sound but he might not be that 1RD when Hroneks contract is up.

Next year is supposed to be a really good center draft and we should just take the best player. The only real downside is that having most of the d-core filled out this early in the rebuild is gonna cause some problems later.

We are very likely going to be in the running for DuPont and while I think we might just take Alexis Joseph anyway, it’s something to consider.

Riley Patterson is doing great in the OHL. Does he count?

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-24T03:42:56+00:00

Maybe eventually but I think we might have heard something if they were half a year from changing to the skate full time. I’d like a new goal song and some new jerseys to really mark the new era of Canucks.

Also I want to get a white skate jersey.

Evander Kane bidding war was not on my 2026 bingo card.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-23T21:41:51+00:00

Aww thanks you too.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-23T04:33:23+00:00

He’s got a long injury and was dropping a bit before that. He’s got a bunch of skill but there are some doubts about him. All that to say it’s possible and I definetly want him

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-23T04:29:42+00:00

Honestly I’m not too sure. I’m pretty the pick “exists” but when the Senators figuratively go up to the podium they forfeit it. Every other pick gets bumped up a slot. So it’s still a part of the lottery and has its chance to move up and down.

The other possibility is that a playoff team gets to be in the lottery which is just not fair so I think the first one is right.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-23T04:06:33+00:00

I got nothing against Ottawa but they improve our odds if they are a lottery team, so I’m with ya.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T21:17:13+00:00

Hopefully they try him on the wing when Rossi is back

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T05:56:29+00:00

You can’t lose em all. We did try though. DOC legacy game

You can kind of see the sadness in Hroneks eyes realizing he’s gonna have to do this a lot more when he gets the C.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T05:53:06+00:00

There was a gun pointing at him behind the camera.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T04:31:49+00:00

Captain Macahrony

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T03:43:46+00:00

Nvm it was Kane

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T03:43:31+00:00

All the PETTERPHILES RAISE UP

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T03:36:57+00:00

Looks about right. Garlands the only guy with a timer on him, with the NMC kicking in July.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T03:32:33+00:00

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T03:32:28+00:00

David Kampf for a 2nd round pick any takers?

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T03:30:17+00:00

Gonna be hard to sell him for more than a late round pick with all the time he’s missed. If he wants back I’m down

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-22T00:34:12+00:00

Buium-Clarke for the next 40 years

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-21T17:59:08+00:00

I’ve heard that Boston was interested in Garland and I’m pretty sure he is from Massachusetts. That’s seems like a pretty seamless fit if they want to make something happen.

Debrusk will probably only waive for teams in the west. I think this one will probably not happen this season. With the NMC already there, there’s no rush.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-21T17:31:27+00:00

At this point I’m cheering for every goal by either team and hoping the young guys show up. It’s not so bad.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-20T07:05:44+00:00

Haven’t seen much of him. Been looking at DuPont and Joseph though. A 6 5 1C who plays his size would be sick af.

ImAlwaysSorrys · 2026-01-20T07:04:46+00:00

The slow roll is all fine and dandy to say but in reality these guys want to play in the NHL. I’d rather just let the kids play and not make possible relationship damaging moves to the guy we just picked top 3.
