Demko goes to Buffalo this offseason. They send over Comrie and probably a pick or two, and the keep UPL as a backup. If demko reverts to all star status, then the sabers are a legit team.
No no no no no no no we already traded horvat the canucks better not trade demko
Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Columbus ……
i can't believe demko wants out or canucks want to trade him. He has proven that he is a #1 goalie and possibly the best in the league. If they get rid of him, who tf are they gonna have?? Then they'll be on the market for a #1 goalie… makes no sense. If he wants out then sure trade makes sense. But if canucks tryna move him at his will then wtf
Goalies and goals are easy to come by so no problem.
Buffalo doesn't need a goalie unless we go into "win now" mode… which would be a mistake. I doubt GMKA breaks his plan unless a great deal he can't decline comes along. I would like to see a top 4 RD or some defensive depth otherwise I would say no trades.
If Demko is traded…….. Last # jersey I buy……… I've got a collection of Canucks goalie jerseys……. All finally acquired just before trades/leaving in the offseason
The Sens should be hot on getting Demko. Demko, Bear and 2023 Isles first for Norris. Proven #1, with a good cap hit and locked up long term.
I really doubt it . We haven’t a suitable replacement
I cant see Demko going for more than a couple 2nds.
Tyler Myers nastiness ? He’s made one hit in 3 seasons ! The largest man who plays like the smallest ! Who are you watching?
Canuck fans are stupid . They are dismantling this team . In the worse manner possible . Do you you think the so called untouchables don't want out . If I were one of them . I would demand a trade out of this circustown . There is no honesty or loyalty to the players or fans . This has become a political gong show . Management cannot give us the straight face honest truth about anything and are stealing your money and laughing . Cause this team for many years to come are the new Arizona Coyote"s of the NHL. And that's the bottom line.
Horvat. Schenn are the main chips. Demko is as much of a joke as OEL.
Yes unfortunately you guys. Started this at least one year too late now its like the movie says a full blown fire sale when you won’t get more than ten cents on the dollar had you done at the beginning of last year you might have gotten 50 cents on the dollar. Plus now you didn’t send out a letter but I am sure will be coming very soon. You guys are basically going to be a non factor for the next six years not including this year doesn’t count because you started selling way too late. I am sure LGR and Dury would to talk to you guys about Pety and Hughes but you are going to take on a lot of bad contracts because unlike when the Rangers put out out there letter there wasn’t this many cap strapped teams which really handcuffs your current management plus ownership wasn’t in a good place last year couldn’t happen to a better more mismanaged organization good luck in 2028 and beyond
Vancouver is t getting anything better than what the heck and to mention a RHD lmao. I've officially unsubscribe cause your the least realistic analyst.
If canucks trade demko. It should be a package deal with boeser. For wallstadt , and couple otger players .
3:07 that is carey price ya noob
Demko for Jordan Spence & a late pick
The 2030/31 Canucks will be amazing.
Demko to Sabres for Ukko Pekka Lukkonen, first round pick, and Casey Mittlestad
Send him home to L.A. (I know he's from San Diego but Anaheim doesn't need a G) Kings have a couple of young R shot D; Helge Grans and Brandt Clarke. I'd prefer the latter, and a pick.
WE CAANNNNNOT trade demko, especially with how low his trade value is right now compared to when he’s healthy and playing at 100%. We cannnnnooootttt risk making a trade and giving him up while he’s at a low. Next season if silovs comes in and lights up the league then fine, maybe, but not rn.
pretty much the same as Bo Horvat, getting a premium Right shot defenseman and a 1st would be great plus a roster player. No need to trade him if we are blackballed. If someone really believes in him and gives you a kings ransom. Go for it.
Detroit perhaps?
I think the Sabres should stick with what they have.
Out of the three big trades the Sabres are rumored in, Demko would be the last one. What do you think if the Sabres had to choose just one? Should they go with Meier, Chychrun, Demko. Who makes the instant impact? Who is better for the long run?
Hey would Kings get Demko for Walker, a 2nd & a 3rd rounder plus JAD or Kupari? Not sure Kings want him due to cap issues that limit the Kings.
Why trade Demko this year? We’d be trading low. Id give him next year to see how he rebounds.
Why would u trade demko? ESP at his lowest value ever? Who will replace him? Boeser garland meyers miller oel all need to go before him. 32m tied up in these 5
the Canucks are not going to trade their #1 goalie unless he requested a trade and i doubt he has, more crazy rumors out of vancouver…..
He is not going anywhere, we have no goalies in the system. This is just more vancouver media garbage. There is a reason vancouver is a goalie graveyard
