Deadline Day Contest for Free Stuff!

Is anything more fun than playing the role of Armchair General Manager? Of course not. Don’t be silly. It’s why I go straight for “Be a GM Mode” when I’m suckered into spending 70-plus dollars on the “newest” version of the EA Sports NHL game, every year like clockwork.

In case you were wondering, every first season I’m #TeamTank and it makes it so much more fun. Jim Benning could learn a thing or two from yours truly, but I digress.

The most fun anyone has when #rosterbating is concocting trade ideas. Hell, look at how much time and space I’ve dedicated to a deal that has almost no chance of materializing… It’s too much fun to pass up on! Enough with my ideas, though. It’s your turn.

Check in on the others side of the jump for a chance to win a $50.00 gift card to Violent Gentlemen.

We’re just less than a month away from the February 29th trade deadline, which means the hour of reckoning is nigh upon us. A lot has been made of the Canucks plan – or lack thereof – heading into this formative home stretch. Who to trade, who to keep… We’re just scratching the surface here.

If you think you can do better than Jim Benning, or us for that matter, we want to hear what you would do in the Canucks shoes. Send us your best trade suggestions by the comment section, email or Twitter. Think realistic. No, the Canucks aren’t landing Evgeni Malkin for Mason Raymond, Keith Ballard and a third.

Whichever ten trade suggestions are deemed the best and most realistic will be put into up to a vote. The readers will select the best trade and the winner will be awarded a $50.00 gift card to Violent Gentlemen. You could get an awful lot of swag for $50.00 and it wouldn’t cost you a cent to try, either.
