Schneider is a top 4 defenseman on more than half the teams in the league.
- Reubenkincade

By acclimation for sure only due to RHD are gold. Doesn’t make him a stud.

Aside from maybe Boeser, I think management will stand pat at the TDL, They're happy with Bear.

Stand pat or flat cap induced imo. Gotta believe the flat cap is holding up many GM’s from trading. Also add the huge contracts signed exacerbate the same for contenders. FLA etc

The kid is 21 years old, playing 16 minutes a night on a pretty good team, yet he doesn't meet your stud parameters, I don't know what to say.

Bear is a #5 defenseman. The team has nothing but 5, 6, 7, and 8th defensemen.

They also don't have the ability/desire to make significant moves. I think this group is content riding the season out.

No way this happens, without a Horvat contract they will trade him, if he has a contract, and they are in playoff chase they will tweak roster with minor moves, and if they are well out of playoff chase, there will be lots of moves .

If the yotes were a Canadian team wonder what Gary would do lol, but that wouldn’t happen in Canada.

With the Canucks ability to score goals (6th highest in league I think) just having an average defence would have this team in a playoff position. We all saw it last season and focused our criticism on that position, wishing and hoping the new management group would address this obvious weakness, but…

If they trade Boeser they can sign Horvat. The other pieces they want to move would probably need sweeteners.

This is probably why they are in wait and see mode. It’s frustrating for fans that a direction is not planned but reacted too.

They set the price to high for their players, thinking they will get a good young player and a top prospect in return.

80's hockey , watch them get dismantled by the heavy D minded teams in round one.

But hey, playoffs are the goal, the season would be deemed a success.

Sure, but I miss playoff hockey, or any meaningful hockey for that matter. I’m tired of becoming disinterested in my team by November.

I don't think playoffs are even the goal, Aquilini doesn't care about winning he makes good money doing nothing, it's a money making machine, the idiot fans just throw their money at him, he could let Horvat walk for nothing and it wont effect his bottom line. Cheering for this team to win is a lost cause, he makes the same money win or lose.

I'm okay with a higher pick than watching them get their ass handed to them in one quick opening series.

Insulated 3rd pairing indeed. If he’s a stud plan the parade already.
