Icon46 Canucks trade Jared McCann, 2nd, 4th to Panthers for Erik Gudbranson + 5th

Chris Johnston ‏@reporterchris 3m3 minutes ago
Hearing the #canucks and #FlaPanthers are closing in on a trade. Believe prospect Jared McCann is part of it. Working on full details.

Without hearing the return, I'm going to assume "lol Canucks" is a valid response.

Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC
As @reporterchris mentioned...FLA/VAN working on a McCann for Gudbranson deal. There are picks involved.

Id have to think a defenseman is going the other way. Kulikov?

OMG, this is amazing. The Canucks continued descent to Oilers territory is on track.

I guess Gudbranson fits more of Jim Benning's narrative of "big==good"

What is going on in FLA? Gudbranson was being talked about as future captain material now he's out the door with everyone else. McCann and a second is a pretty good return but still. Strange couple of weeks for FLA.

That's a high 2nd rounder going Florida's way. Interesting deal, I thought the Canucks were planning on McCann as part of their core moving forward.

Vancouver giving up picks again. I thought McCann was going to be pretty good? Gudbranson would've been a nice add to the Flames D, though. Kinda wish we were able to get him.

Maybe this is confirmation they are going to pick a center this draft?

With Jarred McCann gone, I wonder if it had to do with them possibly picking Dubois in the draft as they are overloaded with Center depth.

That seems like a fair deal from both teams standpoint, McCann looks like he will be a good second/third line center but defense is where games are won and from what I have seen of Gudbranson he is a good young defenseman who is huge with a mean streak so it seems pretty even.

Someone one mentioned in the trade thread a day or two ago that McCann was being shopped. Good call whomever that was. PLD and Brown have to be Canucks targets now.

From what I've heard of Gudbranson he is severely lacking in puck-moving skills, pretty much a d-zone only defenseman. Not exactly what you win with in today's NHL. Hope he gets a massive contract.
