DeNiro Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Not that concerned about a 2nd in terms of hoping to draft some stud in the future, for me it’s more about limiting future deadline deals. However if this frees us up to sign some important pieces I guess it’s the cost of doing business. Glad it sounds like we might be getting a 4th back at least. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably less that & more what we could use that cap space for (eg., re-sign Z) imho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elias Pettersson Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 2 minutes ago, Petey O said: Yep. This is pretty huge if it goes through. 5.5~ for Zad. 3 for Myers. 9.5 for Guentzel. 1~ for Silovs, and you have a bit over 3 mil after that to fill a couple more spots with depth. I’m not sold on Guentzel at $9.5 million. But it seems this management likes him so it probably happens. I’d put a friendly wager that we don’t sign him but I’m already in the hole with that…. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R3aL Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 3 minutes ago, bh90 said: Who's the RHD target ahead of Myers? Roy? I guess it would be Roy than the next option it would be Carrier. But Roy is getting more than Demelo hes going to be prolly in the 5-6M range. And Carrier is going to be in the 4-5M range with a UFA RHD pay bump. Myers on the open market would probably be able to get 4-5M as well on a short term deal from many teams. So Myers at 2.5-3.5 is probably a better option than a lot of RHD on the market value wise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the equivalent of trading that 2nd round pick for whoever we sign in free agency with the extra $5 million. Any free agent who’s worth is $5 million is worth a 2nd round pick. Plus we are getting a 4th back so it’s really a 3rd round pick for a $5 million free agent. Edited June 27 by Elias Pettersson 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch this trade to free up cap is for them to actually make another trade to bring someone in and it's not related to Free Agency at all 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or better yet, poach teams tight against the cap and get talent for pennies on the dollar. Erik Cernak please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether it's Guentzel at 9.5 or Marchessault at 6ish as a stopgap option until Lekkerimaki can potentially step in, I'll just be glad that EP is getting a legitimate top 6 winger. I'll be confident in whatever this FO does. I trust them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d put a friendly wager that we don’t sign him but I’m already in the hole with that…. I'm not either. He's good but they need two wingers not one. He isn't light years ahead of Lindholm. So it is a one for one trade off and I like centers better. Edited June 27 by chris12345 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude had a bum knee, why not just give him a chance to see if he's better this year? Because this core is in a contention window, and the FO isn't going to risk tossing out a year of that window just to rehabilitate a guy making almost 5 mil when that money can be spent for an upgrade on wing/defense. The Canucks aren't in a transition phase. They're in a "win now" phase. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
