I don't hate the 3rd is 3 years out.... the Canucks could be a very bad team by then.

I'm glad they're at least sticking to acquiring draft picks and not holding on to players just to increase playoff chances.

Return not surprising for a 3rd pairing rental, people way overvaluing Zadorov here imo

That's cap space acquired though as well. Something that could garner a greater return elsewhere. Zads wanted to he gone, he gone.

I don't get why you make this move in division, when that's the return. Were things really getting that bad behind the scenes that you just HAD to do this now at any cost?

Maybe this is a precursor trade to move out salary.

lol you guys are hilarious.

If this is all teams are offering for a player, then that's all you're gonna get.

Zadorov really isn't that good.

Weak. But frankly isn’t a complete reflection of Conroy’s ability. The big fish are where he’ll make his early fate. This is underwhelming for a unique defencemen. I wish he just held onto him until the deadline. Surely he’d have got a second right?

Unless they can Weaponizing the cap space, this is smelling more like addition by subtraction.

The clip the other day with Weegar telling him about being on ice for goals against was very telling in my opinion. His teammates didn’t want him around anymore.

Did Conroy has a drink with Corey Perry a week ago?

Should havegone for two 4ths. The Flames are better in the 4th round.

What were people expecting? A 1st round pick for him? I was hoping for a 2nd round pick but I'll take a 3rd and 5th.

Should have waited but clears the cap space I guess. Pretty below-whelming.

It's pretty disappointing when comparing this to the rumored Toronto offer of Klingberg + better picks.
Hopefully, Connie is not trying to free up cap space for a big ticket item.

'Yuck' is right.

Its not April Fools' Day right?
The Canucks aren’t winning anything this year and Zadorov isn’t moving the needle for them.

Silver lining is that 5th Chicago will be like a late 4th. So we are guaranteed to get a player with that pick. I am struggling with this one.

I would argue that Conroy undervalued Zadorov with that trade.
