Rypien-Punch Posted November 13, 2023 Posted November 13, 2023 To Van - Dante Fabbro To Nashville - Myers, Brzustewicz, Mcdonough, 2024 2nd Hughes Hronek Cole Fabbro Soucy Friedman Quote
Gurn Posted November 13, 2023 Posted November 13, 2023 IMo- way too much to give up for a 20 point a year D man that plays less than 20 minutes a night. Myers plays more minutes, and scores at a higher rate. Defensively they look about equal. Only things Fabro's got over Myers is age and cap hit, with Fabro needing a new deal, as an RFA I might go any 2 of the 4 pieces leaving Vancouver for Dante. 1 Quote
Hammertime Posted November 13, 2023 Posted November 13, 2023 (edited) I don't really see a need for Fabbro. He kinda just makes our line up more of the same. If we are doing a deal with Nashville I would be going hard after Cole Smith and Jeremy Lauzon. These are the types of players that our team is lacking if we are serious about playoffs.

Nucker67 Posted November 13, 2023 Posted November 13, 2023 I wouldn't trade Brzustewicz straight up for Fabbro 2 1 Quote
flickyoursedin Posted November 13, 2023 Posted November 13, 2023 Some outlets had Brzustewicz mocked in the 1rst round to early 2nd round. We luckily got him in the 3rd round and he’s proving now that he should have been drafted much earlier. He’s a guy I’d hang onto especially the fact he’s a RHD which we’re desperate for. 1 Quote

Nah I'd pass. Bear feels like he can roughly bring what Fabbro can and we can likely just sign him by dumping Beau for a mid/late pick. Meyers has been fine on the 3rd pair in a more controlled setting. Brzustewicz and a 2nd are both valuable and I'd rather they kept those in this situation. Quote
PhillipBlunt Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 Fabbro is severely overrated. 1 1 Quote

Fabbro is marginally better if that and brings much the same type of game. I’d rather keep the prospects and picks and get Bear. Acquiring a dman from the Flames is a little different if we could get Tanev or Zadarov but still wouldn’t use Brzustewicz as a sweetener in a trade. He doesn’t have that much value but is trending like a guy who should have been picked in the 1rst round. Willander, Lekkermaki, Brzustewicz and Silovs are the prospects to hold onto unless you’re getting a guy like Rasmus Andersson from the Flames. Not for Fabbro. Quote

With a 6 million cap hit, Myers is a significant drag on value. Overall, I think you would have to pay to get Nashville to move Fabbro, but that doesn't mean that he is a realistic target for us although his name keeps coming up, I think because he's from New Westminster. For the most part, Nashville is a fairly young team looking to take the next step, I don't see them doing anything unless its for an immediate upgrade, and this is the type of trade that you'd put forward if you're targeting a 1/2 RD who is on an expiring contract for a team who is about to rebuild, that isn't Nashville.

DownUndaCanuck Posted November 17, 2023 Posted November 17, 2023 Way too much, I'd do something like Beauvilier + one of our B-grade defensive prospects for Fabbro but that's it. I'd rather we target a better 20+ minute defenceman. Quote

PLEASE folks (and more importantly, our ownership). Do NOT trade away picks and prospects like candy. Brzusteweicz has some potential there. Jim Rutherford came to Vancouver and basically rebuilt our farm and infrastructure from scratch. After so many years, we finally have a legit pipeline and infrastructure. Podkolzin, Raty, Silovs, Hirose, McWard, etc., all cooking on the farm. Linus Karlsson looked pretty good for us the other night as well. With OEL's cap buyout penalty going to reach its peak in a couple of years, we need prospects like these to step up on ELC contracts and greatly exceed their relative cap hit value. So, even if guys like Raty, Podkolzin, Hirose, and Brzusteweicz don't become top 6 forwards or top 4 d-men, they can still add tremendous value to the team if they kill it on bottom 6 or bottom pairing roles (or riding shotgun on a 2nd line or 2nd pairing) on ELC's. These are the guys that we need to protect. Please, for fucks sake, do NOT piss away picks and prospects like Burke, Gillis, and Benning did. Edited November 18, 2023 by Jeremy Hronek Quote
