2024 OFFSEASON PREVIEW VANCOUVER CANUCKS

 The Vancouver Canucks' 2023-2024 season was a successful and surprising campaign because they were not expected to be major contenders initially, however, the Canucks exceeded expectations by winning their division and making a significant playoff run. Vancouver Canucks won the Pacific Divison title and managed to defeat Nashville in 7 games even though they were playing without Thatcher Demko and moved onto to play the Edmonton Oilers in the second round, but they would ultimately fall short in Game 7. After the success of last season, Vancouver should look to improve the team in the offseason, but they only have so much cap space to fill many holes on the roster.

Vancouver Canucks buyout Ilya Mikheyev; Buyout will leave a 1.55 million cap hit until 2028.


A three-team trade is made between the Vancouver Canucks, Boston Bruins, and Carolina Hurricanes

Vancouver Canucks get rights Jake Guentzel

Boston Bruins get rights to Elias Lindholm 

Carolina Hurricanes rights to Jake DeBrusk, Rights to Nikita Zadorov

This trade gives all three teams the pieces that they need; Vancouver gets the rights to Jake Guentzel, so they can get a head start on signing him, the Boston Bruins get the rights to Elias Lindholm, and Carolina gets Jake DeBrusk, who is a solid fit with their crop of players and Nikita Zadorov, who could replace Brady Skjei. 


Vancouver Canucks only have 5 picks in the 2024 NHL Draft, including no first and 2nd round picks

2024 NHL Draft

93-Kasper Pikkarainen (RW)

107-Hiroki Gojsic (C)

162-Blake Montgomery (LW)

189-Kevin Israelsson (D)

222-Jacob Oster (G)

The Vancouver Canucks didn't draft anyone that really jumps out at you, but they did manage to snag some solid prospects for where they were drafting and how few picks they had.


The Vancouver Canucks have 7 UFAs and 1 RFA to re-sign this offseason with 19.25 million in cap space.

Free Agents Re-signed:

Jake Guentzel (LW)-7yrs/9M per

Dakota Joshua (LW)-4yrs/3M per

Dylan DeMelo (D)-4yrs/3M per

Arturs Silvos (G)-1yr/1M per

Logan Stanley (D)-1yr/1M per

Extensions:

Brock Boeser-8yrs/7.5M per


After free agency, the Vancouver Canucks have 2.25 Million in cap space left to make more moves.


To Refine the roster, one trade is made:

Vancouver Canucks trade Vasily Podkolzin, Tristen Nielsen,1st round pick '25 to the Columbus Blue Jackets for Ivan Provorov. Columbus retains 25% of Provorov's contract. 

Columbus isn't likely to re-sign Ivan Provorov after his current contract is up, so it make sense for them to trade him for something. For Vancouver, they would be getting a top 4 defenseman, and it would allow them to split Quinn Hughes and Filip Hronek, if they choose to do so for more Defensive depth.


2024-25 Vancouver Canucks

J.Guentzel-JT.Miller-B.Boeser

N.Hoglander-E.Pettersson-L.Karlsson

D.Joshua-A.Raty-C.Garland

P.DiGiuseppe-P.Suter-N.Aman

Q.Hughes-D.DeMelo

I.Provorov-F.Hronek

C.Soucy-M.Friedman

T.Demko

A.Silovs

Spares: D.Klimovich, L.Stanley, N.Juulsen

If the Vancouver Canucks are able to pull of these moves in the offseason, they will be a very good team next season.

TIPS FOR DECIDING WHO TO KEEP FOR KEEPER/DYNASTY LEAGUES

Keeper fantasy leagues are a variation of traditional fantasy sports leagues where participants are allowed to keep a certain number of players from their previous season's roster onto their team for the upcoming season. The number of players that can be kept, as well as the specific rules regarding keeping players, vary from league to league and are typically determined by the league commissioner or by a set of agreed-upon rules among league members. In a keeper league, the kept players usually come with a cost, such as forfeiting a specific draft pick in the upcoming draft or having to pay a predetermined fee. This adds a strategic element to the game, as managers must decide which players to keep based on their performance, potential, and value relative to the cost of keeping them. Keeper leagues often provide a deeper level of engagement and strategy compared to standard fantasy leagues because managers need to consider long-term player development and roster management beyond ...

Fantasy Hockey Keeper League Advice

Keeper leagues add a layer of strategy and long-term planning to fantasy hockey. Every keeper league has its own unique rules and scoring settings, so adjust your strategy accordingly.

Here are some tips to help you dominate your Fantasy Hockey Keeper Leagues. Number of Keepers and League Settings When deciding on keepers, it is very important to know how many keepers the league allows you to keep and the league scoring system, because there are players that work better in H2H CAT leagues as opposed to H2H leagues with standard scoring categories.  If you can only keep a few players, focus on those who provide the most value in your specific scoring format. Keep players who excel in categories that are heavily weighted in your league (e.g., power-play points, hits, blocks, faceoffs). If the league uses Rotisserie or Points settings, you will have to take that...

2024 Offseason Preview ft. New Jersey Devils

The New Jersey Devils the playoffs in the 2023-24 season after making it into the second round of the playoffs last season, and finished the season with a total of 81 points, a 38-39-5 record; With Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier in the midst of their primes, the New Jersey Devils really need to start to buckle down and put together the pieces for a contending team. The good news is that the New Jersey Devils have the benefit of having the 10th overall pick, which they could move to acquire a netminder, and they also have plenty of cap space to add other players as well. This coming offseason is a big one for the New Jersey Devils front office because after striking out on a netminder last offseason, the pressure to acquire a netminder this offseason is immense for GM Tom Fitzgerald, who might be on the hotseat if he can't find a way to fix the mess. Before the 2024 NHL Draft, the New Jersey Devils make two major trades New Jersey Devils acquire Jacob Markstrom, Matthew Coronato, 1st...
