[RUMOUR] Vancouver may be pursuing Jake Guentzel


Recommended Posts

Toffoli + Hogz is better than Guentzel alone..

 

Trade for 2nd tier forward. I don't want Hogz + top 3 prospect gone for Guentzel for 16 games.

I think its time for the league to address the LTIR loophole. My suggestion would be something like a player needs to play a certain percentage of the final 20 games of the season to be eligible for the finals. It would stop this bullshit of loading up for the finals with mystery illnesses that seem to heal just around week 1 of the finals. This is  a complete mockery of the cap at this stage.

I think there might be a link, but who knows.  That's a lot of money.

and if this ever negatively affected the canucks, their star player hurt down the stretch legitimately and not allowed to return in the playoffs, you and everyone else here would be absolutely shrieking bloody murder from the rooftops. 

 

penalizing players for getting hurt because some fans cooked up asinine conspiracy theories, thankfully, will never happen.

Honestly knowing how sneaky manipulative Jim R or Allvin are I wouldn't be surprised if they put that possibility out there, they got the rumor started just to get Lindholm's intensity up to par with the standard the team has set.  I don't think they had any intention of trading Lindholm.  I never saw anyone fight so hard to win a faceoff like Lindholm did to start the 3rd vs the King's.  I think this trade will look genius in the playoffs.   Strength down the spine.  Best in the NHL.

So you dont think some teams are knowingly cheating the cap currently?

 

With my suggestion the teams would need to get more creative by "papering" their injured players into the line up and play short down the stretch if they think they will be ready for the finals, at least it stops the bullshit we are seeing at the moment.

Well at his cap hit, if he screws up our fan base will crucify him, hopefully those jews will retain some salary but it's doubtful

Curious to see how the team plays against the knights tonight with the additions of Mantha and Hanifin. If they lose big. I’d be concerned. Would that force Allvin and Rutherford’s hand before the deadline?

I'm far more bothered by the reality that legitimately injured players would be forced to miss a once in a lifetime opportunity, their dream since they were a little kid, because of fan conspiracy theories. 

 

I certainly wouldn't deign to accuse mark stone, a team captain and one of the most competitive guys in the league, of faking a lacerated spleen. 

 

but you do you.

They'd never get a doc to risk their credentials to do that either

exactly. 

 

now, that being said, if people are THAT concerned, I could see doing away with team doctors and moving to league approved doctors instead, no team affiliations. 

 

but I really don't think it's necessary.
