We can still grab DeAngelo, I've heard he's a highly offensive option.

 

I believe he just sits at the point.  He will pass and he will shoot.  But if the puck goes the other way... he'll just wait for it to come back.  The cherry-picking... defenceman.  And Trump's favourite NHLer.

I wonder what the reason was to bring him into town, work him out, and then not sign him? Apparently it's not a fitness issue. 

 

 

Oh yeah?  Where'd you hear that from?

Apparently Phil was told by management to show the baby Canucks what it’s like, and commitment to win the Stanley Cup but I think Phil took it the wrong way and ordered snacks n cigars for the players and the Sedins. 
 

We still love you Phil.

 

Go Canucks :towel:

Canucks Expected To Sign Phil Kessel

 

March 7th, 2024 at 10:03am CST • By Josh Erickson

 

The Canucks are expected to sign free-agent winger Phil Kessel through the remainder of the season before tomorrow’s trade deadline, Chris Johnston of The Athletic and TSN reports.

 

Kessel, 36, had been linked to the Canucks as far back as last summer. It became apparent last month that Vancouver would be his next NHL home after Canucks GM Patrik Allvin announced Kessel had traveled to the area and would be skating with their AHL affiliate in Abbotsford.

 

Vancouver must sign Kessel by 2 p.m. CT on Friday to make him eligible to play in the postseason. Players not on their team’s reserve list at the trade deadline are ineligible to play in the playoffs.

 

A three-time Stanley Cup winner, including just last season with the Golden Knights, Kessel still carries value as a depth winger with decent scoring ability. While he was a healthy scratch for most of Vegas’ playoff run, he appeared in all 82 regular-season games, continuing his league-record streak of 1,064 consecutive games played. That streak will remain active until he’s scratched for a regular-season contest while under contract.

More to come…

Can't trust Johnston, he doesn't know what he's talking about, whereas Johnston on the other hand has some legit connections 

 

Wow, the Province 'insiders' have such eggs on their faces on this one.

With all those Johnsons floating about, that footlong from Costco seems appropriate!

Signing kessel would be the one single reason why we don’t win the cup

The opinions / Judgement based on assumptions / ignorance on here is crazy sometimes! 
 

Yeah, all the experience, especially playoff & cup experience would be so detrimental to this young team. My god, some people need to use logic & common sense more.

I’m all for reading posters takes on here but sometimes we need to stop, think about what we are saying lol

 

If you are doing this just to stir up/rile up true/knowledgable Canuck fans with common sense then ok I can see where you are coming from. 
 

Go Canucks!:towel:

Can the nucks make it work even at league min within the cap without moving someone?


He just pushes someone out of the lineup and their cap hit gets buried.  It doesn’t have any cap impact (or a slightly positive one if the person who is sent down makes more than league minimim).
