stop ripping the Canucks us fans need to stop w the tank nonsense & get back to playing quality hocey simple! lEAVE qh ALONE!
Is Quinn Hguhes Quinn Hughes's stunt double?
getting a good return is one thing. using that return to improve the team is something different entirely.
No they don't.
just start the rebuild already
6 year deal puts him on Luke’s exact timeline. Canucks have no leverage if he just walks
A rebuild on a rebuild..Vancouver is the definition of a computer fire.
who's Quinn Hguhes
I would trade him to San Jose or Anaheim for 2-3 RFA age roster players
If it is to NJ ask for Bratt, Nemec, and two 1sts
Ideally just sign Hughes to a ridiculously huge contract to stay
If you want to push Fitzgerald ask for Nico Hischier and Nemec
People need to understand that new jersey cant afford hughes on the money side. There has to be some going out as well and why is Hamilton the one being talked about when the canucks do not need a right hand D? If dougie is involved in some way there qould be a 3rd party involved because if im not mistaken he has a no movement or atleast a modified no move. Then theres the resigning of quinn which gets even more complicated. If new jersey is going for quinn i think the canucks are asking for bratt because the canucks are desperate for scoring help and then plus plus maybe new jersey trades dougie to someone else in 3 way trade and gives the canucks a couple pieces from that deal? Again who really knows anything but i really dont see the canucks getting dougie hamilton on there team when its all said and done.
