VegasCanuck Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 It might also be said that he might produce better with that 9 million weight of expectations off his head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Elias Pettersson Posted June 30 Popular Post Share Posted June 30 24 minutes ago, VegasCanuck said: It's interesting, I don't know if anyone noticed this yet or not Skinners first 2 NHL contracts were signed by Rutherford. At 3 million per, this guy might be a good middle 6 fit. He wasn't producing at a 9 million level, but that doesn't mean he wasn't producing. Rutherford drafted Skinner. He was there when he won the Calder. Signed him to his second contract too. JR knows him well. I’ll bet you dollars to doughnuts he’s in play with the Canucks. 1 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beni Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Can he skate? EP needs a legitimate trigger man if Stammer or JG are off the table. Stamkos is still my #1 target though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are still some bodies out there that can help, but a lot of competition for the same guys.

MeanSeanBean Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 If the price is right I would look his way. I love a good underdog and this guy has seemed like a perennial underdog his entire career, despite getting a huge payday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCheese Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 i mean hes good for 25 goals put him beside petey hes a 35 goal guy now that guentzels pretty much gone we really need to lock up a scoring winger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madskillz Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 (edited) If we lose out on Guentzel I would go hard after Stamkos at 7-8 mil x 3 and Skinner 3.5x2 and remaining money on a physical D if big Z doesn't return, we go hard after Dillion fast before we lose out on them. One of the most important off season ever with so much excitement. Top 6 of: Skinner Miller Boeser Hogs Petey Stamkos Realistic dream that have a chance to come true.

I.Am.Ironman Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 3 hours ago, DexM94 said: go Marchessault & Skinner for our top 6. This should be our Plan C imo. Plan A - Stammer, Plan B - Teurovainen + Debrusk and/or Dillon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madskillz Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 This guy can finish in close and have an accurate shot he’s not a 5x 30 goal scorer, he has good offensive awareness and isn’t a play driver which he’s happy to find open spots and finish from Petey pass. Mik problem was he couldn’t finish in close chance and doesn’t have a good shot that wasted a lot of chances for Petey and himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKSR Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Dying to play his first playoff game, I'm sure he's gonna light the lamp for whichever team picks him up. Should be an excellent value contract. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madskillz Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 (edited) If can get this guy 4 or less it's a steal hes still a 5+ mil player I really believe he will have around 30ish goals playing with Petey or Miller this guy can really finish and has good offensive IQ.

It’s more likely than we getting Stamkos or Marchessault. It’s also better than getting Toffoli. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainCanuck12 Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Unless we somehow get Stamkos, he's the best option left for an offensive forward by far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willander the Great Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 2 minutes ago, CaptainCanuck12 said: Unless we somehow get Stamkos, he's the best option left for an offensive forward by far. I don’t know, there are a lot of good free agents still remaining, such as Duchene, Teravainen, Marchessault, Toffoli, and to slightly lesser extent, DeBrusk, Bertuzzi, Duclair, Arvidsson, Mantha, Monahan, and I’m sure there’s a few more I’m overlooking. I’m all for signing Skinner, but I do believe there’s a lot to choose from this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rekker Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Skinner should be the top six target. A chance to play with EP should be enticing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
