Kesler trade to Ducks appears to be complete

The return to the Canucks is reportedly forward Nick Bonino, defenceman Luca Sbisa and the 24th overall pick in the 2014 NHL Draft. The teams will swap third-round picks once the deal goes through, according to TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun.

So what do you guys think, good return for Kesler? I think it's okay, nothing to do cartwheels over, but better than probably what Gillis would have received.

It's not bad.

Pretty typical for star divers of late.

Top 6-9 young roster player, good prospect and 1st rounder.

i think we were hamstrung with him wanting 2 teams. I dont think going into a season with him on the team would be good for anyone. I think we got a potential regular 20 to 30 goal forward and a dman that will probably replace Garrison who will be traded hopefully for a prospect. Kesler is oft injured and has not really shown me his whole career that he can maintain his"beast" mode and is aging. I dont like the 24th pick would rather had the 10th but again, the longer it goes I believe it gets worse for the Canucks with him on the team. Im REALLY glad that ego is gone, I hate that its the division but Im hoping for a few more trades to get younger, build a solid team and challenge in a couple years

this weekend has more to offer with the Canucks I think

Wait a tic, did you just call Kesler a star forward?!?

Sorry dash. The correction has been made.

Sbisa can be very pylonesque when he is on his game, when he's off, well...

Bonino is a good player, a poor man's mini Getzlaf with the receding hairline to match.

Draft pick, meh.

Now Kesler can go purse shopping with Corey Perry.

Now, does Vancouver package their two 1st round picks and ship them to Florida for the 1st overall pick and take Sam Reinhart?

Okaaaay.... so what's next.

McDavid?

Luongo!

If I were them I'd just package their first (6th) and Garrison to the Oil for the 3rd overall. I have my doubts that Reinhart will ever be a top notch first-line centre. I for one wouldn't use the first pick on him.

Luongo!

Okay, this is an early candidate for post of the day. LMAO!

I guess we'll find out soon enough if Nick Bonino is Steve Rucchin v2.0
