    Default RUMOUR Jamie Benn to Canucks

    Dallas newsies came up with this one, but suggested Horvat and Juolevi were the return.

    Ya right.

    I'd do it for Eriksson and Juolevi. Canucks take on a great player on decline with a big cap hit for dumping salary and a promising but fragile D prospect.

    I'd call this (unfounded) speculation, not a rumour.

    An offer of Eriksson and Juolevi is wildly unrealistic.

    That might work... if Dallas had one of those really bad fantasy league GMs you see all the time...

    Unless Dallas hires Chiarelli - then that's more than you could hope for in a return.

    This is exactly the direction a rebuilding Vancouver franchise should go... the Aquillini's wouldn't be stupid enough to do this would they? Hmm..

    oh wait... Eriksson, Beagle, Schaller, re-sign Edler, don't trade Tanev, Rousell...

    might be something to it.

    I've also heard this tossed out by the Van media. More of a hypothetical. Benn's a Victoria boy. There isn't a BC kid that doesn't get tagged to Van at some point... right Weber, Duchene, Lucic..??

    I highly doubt Benn is going anywhere

    If he is, it won't be for peanuts
    Consider Sim Hockey because guys who play shutdown minutes, deflect shots and clear creases build championships. Yet in fantasy they litter the unwanted UFA lists.

    the funny thing is... outside of Van's top prospects - Hughes, Demko, Pettersson, Boeser ... much lesser extent Juolevi,Gaudette & Madden - the rest had such horrible years they have no trade value. So you remove those 4 blue chip prospects and the Canucks cupboards are just bare, bare bare.

    Juolevi, Gaudette, 1st just won't get it done. and that's all they really have.

    Jamie Benn has been rumoured to have been on the market for the last year or two. The Canucks have been sniffing around trying to acquire a big-ticket piece for a few years (Subban, Tavares). Jamie Benn is from British Columbia.

    Where there is smoke there are embers. I believe in the spirit of this rumour.

    Where does Benn fit in our rebuild without parting with the few core pieces we have ?

    Messier and Sundin come to mind in declining star players that have signed here. It would be nice for a change to get a player via trade/ free agency etc., Who is on the upward trajectory of their career. Just saying.

    I also believe in the spirit here. Would be surprised if the two GMs havent spoken about it in some fashion. After last year's humiliation, I could see Benn putting together a list of teams...
