There’s an obvious fit there for us.

Provided it’s cheap-ish, would be a great way to fortify our defence.

He gets 3.75 million now and is a ufa looking for a pay raise. He won’t make it to free agency because the Flames will trade him to a team that will offer him more. Don’t see how we could trade for him. The Flames will want more than Garland or Beauvilier.

[WHL rocks]

Garland/Beauvillier+ pick + prospect/Hirose

 

Zadorov 6'6 235lbs

 

Hughes Hronek 

Zadorov Myers

Soucy Cole

Friedman

 

With this D we can confidently go into any playoff series and be competitive.

Any team trading for him will want him extended before the trade

then we pass altogether i hope

 

theres been good players who make it to UFA every year the past few years, and if the canucks have a good year, we'll be an attractive destination

 

dont wanna overpay for something right now, especially with the possibility of Bear returning

I’d give our first and 2nd 

Yeah, nah.

[steviewonder20]

I’m sure Calgary would rather trade him to an Eastern team than a division rival.

What can Lafs offer?Not much

1st round pick + prospect + Klingberg 

 

Klingberg is playing injured and sucks. But is UFA at end of year. So comes off the books. 

 

We won't want to give up a 1st rounder. But Treliving is not the type to hold back. He'll pay if he wants the player.

I don’t think we have a second in 2024 and having our first pick be in round three would suck. I’d pass on that price.

I’m seeing a lot of overpayments on here for someone who’s not only on an expiring contract but has also requested a trade. 
 

We’ll need to send some cap back in order to make this work. Beau? 

 

Beau and a 2nd would be fair value, not that I'm suggesting it. What do you think? 

They can probably flip Beau for a 4th or 5th rounder at the deadline. 

 

Zadorov has had name appeal for the last 5-6 years because he's often been on the block with Colorado and Calgary as a 3rd pairing guy with size. 

He doesn't strike me as a 1st rounder kinda guy at the deadline. 

[Screw]

No to trading a 1st round pick.  Pending UFA who has demanded a trade?  Come on people.  
 

If it becomes a bidding war then move on.

[Catman]

TANEV not z...not shouting but he's all caps for our needs.

[AatuD2]

Btw good chance that around 1st round pick is in the 20 to 24 range this year, if not 32nd overall

Part of the package coukd be we give them our 1st for their 2nd ?

 

They're 2nd rounder will be top 10. Our 1st rounder will be #32 !!

 

So we're only dropping a few spots.

I agree. If that's the price, stick it sideways and stick it up your ass. If he wants to be here, it'll happen in free agency.

I don’t know… a first rounder could be nolan patrick and 6’6’ russian top four defenders don’t grow on trees.

Keep those 1st round picks for Miller and Hronek calibre players.

If guy is worth first ,that is the price you pay if contract is in place

[Smashian Kassian]

Don't trade a 1st for Zadorov, he's a 4/5D

Canucks interested in a trade is a bit more speculation/an inference, but I expect we’ll be among the teams looking at him along with Toronto. 
 

EDIT: Nvm, Dhaliwal confirmed this

 

 

Fucking beautiful.

Would be a solid addition to our club.

 

Maaaaan to all the other longtime Zaddy coveting members who were confidently posting about him going back a ways into CFF, I hereby cheers you because the dream is officially one step closer.

Horonek was NYI 1st and our 2nd

 

The NYI were trending down and it could have been a 12 to 15 overall pick. That's why Steve Y made the call to PA. He offered Horonek for those 2 picks and it was a take it or leave it. PA took the deal and won. 

 

Our 1st is trending to be late pick. Bottom 10. So it's not worth nearly as much.  

 

It's not easy getting another Hronek. Very difficult as a matter of fact. 

 

Zodorav is a heck of a player. His agent is Milstein so almost a part of Canucks management team.  He'll re sign with us.. 

 

I'd put together a pretty good package for the Russian beast.

He'll solidify our D for the year and likely sign extension. Then we just need a top 6 forward and this team is pretty much complete.

With Milstein being Zadorov's agent I don't think signing an extension will be a big problem. 

 

Plus he's got Russian friends on the Canucks. I think he'll be happy to come to Vancouver.

Give them our 1st for their 2nd as part of package. 

 

We don't have a 2nd this year so we need atleast 1 pick in first two rounds..

He's not that good though, he's not another Hronek.

 

I like Zadorov, but he's along the lines of a Cole/Soucy level player. He's making 3.75 & will want a significant raise. 

 

If we are trading our 1st we need a bonafide top 4 D, I don't think he's that.

Brad Treliving is GM in Toronto.  He'll overpay and out bid the Canucks..

 

This is a solid player. Top 4 on almost every team in the NHL. Would be awesome to have him but with Leafs needing a D upgrade badly means they'll out bid us..

Not just that…like I posted a few weeks ago, I thought back then that TO will not only outbid anyone for his services if he became available this season, but also will overpay to extend him meaning we miss out any potential UFA deal with him…or he’s able to price himself out of UFA range as well due to demand/offer from TO.
 

I think we should try trading for him because it will only help us further improve playoff hopes. Only caveat is we have such a good relationship with Milstein (excellent job by mgmt to nurture that) that we can get at very least a verbal commitment that the mutual interest between Zadorov and us is pretty much a done deal just waiting for free agency. 
 

fucking excited regardless.
