No one wants to hear this at all. No wants to hear this from you let me make this clear your videos suck your content has gone down hill like a lot I don’t know how you don’t get that your videos suck
Quinn Hughes has just been traded to the Hartford Whalers for Ron Francis, Pat Verbeek and Ray Ferraro. And…BYE
Ya gossip just about as bad as my grandma and Elliot the idiot freeman
Get a fkn different hobby boi
I wonder out of all of this channel's trade rumor videos, what percentage of them were correctly predicted? Do you think it's less than 1%, perhaps 0.1%?
I don't see a team that is fighting for a playoff spot that would be willing to trade away present and future assets for a 1.5 year rental. A team would want a commitment from Hughes that he will resign with them in order for yhem to give up a lot of assets, and that technically is not a commitment Hughes can give st this time. The Devils should just be patient, and they will get him without giving up assets in 1.5 years.
I think it's ridiculous that "insiders" keep dredging up teams that have interest. Of course they have interest. 31 other teams do.
The E! News of hockey commentary…
It Canucks trade Hughes i might not be a fan anymore. He is our best franchise player since the sedin twins and I doubt he even wants to leave vancouver
It’s not TWO years – it’s a season and 1/2. Do you think any rational GM is going to give them 4-5 players for one – I DON’T THINK SO !
DRW – Kasper, Rasmussen, and a second
If Vancouver does a ‘sign and trade’ – then make that a first rounder. That would be three 1st rounders for Hughes – for a year and 1/2. PLENTY!
…OR… Pellikka and Copp for Hughes….
Quinn will not be traded until he tells the Canucks he is not resigning. Simple as that. That won't happen until July 1 2026 at the earliest or he would have been traded already. Chances are he is just doing like McDavid did which was take his time to get a very important contract "right". Most likely if Quinn does the same thing but tells them he isn't signing or isn't willing to negotiate he will be traded in the summer, probably a couple of weeks before training camp starts. Hell he may shock the Hockey world by resigning with Vancouver. Who knows? I really don't think he is even considering what his next contract will look like, he has his hands full trying to Captain a last place team out of the basement in the standings. He is in alignment with winning so that goes against the tanking that is naturally happening because they have traded away all their first round picks for a long time to try to make the playoffs. That has been an obvious mistake and now management has shifted to now acquiring picks cuz they know they can't afford to get a 2C. Yall YouTubers should focus on trades that will happen, like Sherwood to ********.
Hmm all these new teams you wonder who's trying to drive the price up 🤔 Vancouver.
Do we even know if Quinn is leaving? Like why do we all believe he is leaving? The worst way to look at this.
This page says sooo much. But zero substance or credible
Hey I made this video with my tweet 🤝🏼
For the DRW to trade for him, it may not be worth it! They'll want Edvidson for sure, plus some 1's, and Kasper. That could gut the team!
Not sure why WIngs keeps being clickbaited by Hughes. WE ALL KNOW Yzerman isnt trading for a rental. Not sure if its like Rantanen, unless Hughes is open to signing with other teams. Maybe its just rumors that he only wants to play in New Jersey. But if it isnt, if Detroit traded for him before July 1st and they get stuck with him, they would essentially trade capitol for nothing but a rental.
SteveY is reluctant to trade his young players. Remember his plan is to build through the draft and now that his picks are ripening he won't deal them unless the trade favors the DRWs. Certainly not ASP. He's going to out shine Hughes in a year or two. Maybe this year, if he continues his rapid development. And without some guaranty Hughes would sign long term… THERE WILL BE NO TRADE.
Not a chance 4 or 5 pieces are going back to Vancouver from Detroit. Yeah, let's just sell the entire youth movement we've been building for years for one single defenseman that isn't guaranteed to resign. If he stays, that's still setting the team back when we just got our new young centers in the lineup making great progress. If he decides he wants to leave, we trade him and get a few first rounders for him and restart the process of building young center depth all over again.
The price is too high. Hard pass.
By the way, Lego, Chychrun is pronounced Chickrun.
Who is the retard thinking anybody is trading a Carlson, Bedard or Celebrini? That is honestly the most autistic take I have ever heard. Sure, Hughes is comparable skill-wise, probably even better than Carlson, but you cannot make the argument that trading a player like those 3 for a two year rental is a good deal. NOBODY would make that deal. You could make the case that Anaheim is in a position to make a deal like that, simply because they are playing extremely well, but who would they actually be willing to sell? Realistically, Vancouver wants guys who can paly center, and I am unsure if Anaheim is willing to give up prospects like McQueen or Lucas Pettersson. If they were willing to give up one of those guys along with D prospect Luneau, maybe we could see a push for Hughes. However, I really don't think it would be wise for a team to sell so much future potential for a two year rental. I really hope for Vancouvers sake that Anaheim plays ball, but it is unlikely. As far as SJ and CHI go, no way in hell. They are too crap to even consider that right now.
We could have had Pellikka, but no we have Hronek instead,….
Honestly it sounds like hughes is interested in going to Detroit from that quote
As a detroit fan. I would rather not sacrifice more future players for a 1.5-year rental.
Whichever team offers us the highest bid in terms of prospects and futures I’ll take it😂 Who gives a f where he ends up, he has no trade clause anyways lmao
Let's be honest, Alvin will trade Hughes for a bag of practice pucks, and claim it was the best deal he could get.
RYAN LEONARD!!!
People quickly forget about the fact he wants to play with his brothers…What team does his bros play for? Also Canucks GM said they can't stop him if this is what he wants
Does Rossi, Jiricek and a 1st do anything for y'all?
I think with a guy like Quinn Hughes, everyone “has interest,” he’s a stud. I’d be interested to see a list of teams willing to get Quinn though. I’m a Hawks fan and the thought of Quinn on the point would be awesome, originally I wanted Chicago to draft him but Vancouver picked him the spot right before. Ultimately, I like where the Hawks prospects are and I wouldn’t want to give up so much for a possible rental. Especially since the Hughes brothers playing together in NJ is such a big topic.
