All we have to do is look into the rafters to see who's there. Just because Naslund and the Sedins didn't get us there, doesn't mean they didn't do their best. Same with Smyl, Bure and Linden.

RupertKBD Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 5 hours ago, OldFaithfulcap said: I missed the first two periods. Did hughes-myers do much? I like hughes-hronek much more. The team didn't give up a lot of shots, so it's hard to criticize, but I wasn't much of a fan of the pairing. I still like Hughes with Hronek, Zadorov with Soucy and Myers with Cole. When Juuls comes in, he plays with Z and Myer plays with Soucy. (to balance out the L/R) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kilgore Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 1 hour ago, DeNiro said: It sounds crazy but a player like Joshua could be key to a series like that. In tight one goal games THE third line and more specifically Dak could be the line that breaks down their defensive wall. I think management will rue the day if it turns out they let Joshua walk because they caved in to Hronek's demands and now can't pay Dak. Both players fill a need we desperately have to have to be competitive. But you can't overpay one of them in our cap situation. Not Dak either. Personally, if it came down to which two players of the four, if we could only keep two: Zadorov, Hronek, Lindholm, and Joshua? For me it would be Zadorov and Joshua first. Joshua brings something to the table we also lack and is not that easy to find. If Hronek wants too much, then elevate Juulsen as Hughes main partner at least until PA finds another veteran to replace Hronek. Lindholm will have to prove himself a lot more, hopefully in the playoffs, if he expects to be signed here. But they all will have to prove themselves in the post season. I might revamp my priority list after the playoffs. A lot depends on how each of them look during the most important time. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Joshua will be brought back too. Cole will not be re-signed and Myers will be brought back for 2 years 2.5M or something like that. For a D core consisting of: Hughes Hronek Soucy-Myers Zadorav-Juulsen To be honest we need to move a forward out. Mikheyev is the best option of eliminating from the roster without losing too much. His money could be used for Hronek, Zadorav, Joshua raises. I am not a fan of re-signing Lindholm. Would rather have a center depth of: Petey Miller Suter Bluegar (need to find a way to re-sign him). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barn Burner Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 7 hours ago, DeNiro said: Yea but the way the Kings play every game is a 50/50 game based on one of those greasy goals. In that scenario you’re in a game 7 before you know it and the series can be decided off a goal like that. No thanks. Trap hockey should be dead and buried. Only teams that play not to lose play that way. By a team like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darius Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 I found a good site that breaks down the playoff matchups with probabilities. As of today they put the Canucks odds at 1st in Pacific at 92% and their matchup will be the Preds @48%, GKnights @21%. Just hover over the positions and the probabilities/matchups pop up. http://www.playoffstatus.com/nhl/nhlplayoffschedule.html 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am getting tired of people making it sound like the Cam Neely trade I'm actually calling bullshit on this... because, unless we win the Cup and he re-signs, then we've wasted a lot of assets. So no, it's not the Neely trade syndrome, but it's just plain and simple, stupid management. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myers I will guarantee you will go for AT LEAST 4 Million. He's doing his family disservice for taking a huge paycut. Theres going to be a market for Myers, 6'8 , right hand shot, probably had his best season in a Canuck uniform, he'll get his money 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toronto fans learned that the hard way when they called for Florida. Agree with letting the chips fall....but that said there are favorable matchups. I think the Canucks would matchup against the Preds better, the hockey will be a little more open and might take less of a physical toll on the team. Also, would love to see the Kings or Vegas matchup against Edmonton. Its a personal preference coz i hate the oil. Vegas and the Kings do a good job shutting down the two man show- guys like Danault do a good job shutting down McDavid (well as much as possible)...but the Kings might not have the high end offence to overcome the oilers whereas Vegas does. In the end I think Canucks can beat any first round opponent with Demko in net. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to get back or go deep. I am waiting to see them win the first home game this season. Get that W first. Lower the expectations but hope for the best. Need some luck and players to get on a streak to go far. The field is kind of open, and nux could surprise many. But they are not the favorites like in 2011. That's totally fine with me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
