Hmmm.....we were told that we also offered 5 million.....so it came down to term?

 

I would have have happily paid this and I think the Canucks will regret not doing so....

Or maybe he found out he couldn’t get 6 mil+ and was too egg faced to crawl back to the Canucks.

It's the Tax. They look at their takehome pay.

 

You can thank the Trudeau libs and Eby NDP for that 

So would you give up your Medical so the rich can be richer?

Looking like they misplayed all their hands this offseason.

 

This is what happens when you get hung up on one free agent.

 

Waiting on Guentzel whole plan B, C, D, and E go elsewhere.

 

There we’re move ls to be made here that didn’t involve stupid money but management was asleep at the wheel.

Trade for his rights. Why didn’t they?

Pretty sure the Canucks were not going beyond 5 years.

 

I think I made the point the other day that I thought the sticking point would be term, not money. Six years for Zadorov is three more than I would have given him.

He is a depth defenseman, nothing wrong with that. 

 

Yeah. It comes down to how much money is being spent, but he's the Cole replacement, not the Zadorov replacement. He's got size, which is what we are losing in Z, so maybe PA is trying to get two birds stoned at once....

[Smashian Kassian]

Pls be 1 yr deal for Forbort

[Mando27]

Zads clearly didn't wanna be here if he accepted the same offer from Boston.

[Odd.]

I honestly see us making a run for Necas

So, Zadorov, Lindholm, Cole, Rafferty all gone. Toffoli and Tanev signed elsewhere. We still haven't signed anyone. Have I missed anything?

 

 

Team is a lot worse right now.

[NoHeart]

It looks like we’ve dodged all the bullets. might have the first mistake free july 1st in a long ass time. Pacific hasn’t gotten better either. Win/Win. 

[SilentSam]

happy for Lindy

Would've been better keeping Mikheyev & their 2nd at this rate.

[Enigma]

De Brusk!

[WHL rocks]

Maybe we'll sign Reinhart. 

 

I prefer him over Guentzel.  Give him 10 mill 7 years 

[NoHeart]

Oh shit I spoke too soon 7 x 5.5 FML

I don't see how we're beating them with the same team (well actually lesser of a team now) if we face them again next season in the playoffs. 

I don’t see us making playoffs again..

6 years is a pretty long term. It sucks he's gone. But if that's the rationale I understand it. I don't like it, but I understand it.

[Honkin Hronek]

 

[Smashian Kassian]

Oh boy big contract for DeBrusk

[WHL rocks]

We just signed Debrusk

 

7 yrs 5.5mill per year 

 

Taking Bostons guy as payback..

We pumped their value to fleece Boston. That's a win. Lindy for Miller money is insane. 7 years too. 

[SilentSam]

This is funny actually..

 

 

Richest man in hockey for a year !
