Make a deal for Laine. What’s going on with Mitch Marner?? The Laine deal may take a while to get done... maybe even a fortnight.

Coconuts Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 (edited) 4 minutes ago, King Heffy said: I'm not saying 2nds are useless, just that people tend to overvalue them like they're a sure thing. The reality is that you have 2 busts for every guy who turns into an NHL regular. Sure, and the best way to get top end talent is to draft it. Outside of Willander, Lekkerimaki, Raty, and maybe Pettersson there's a dearth of blue chip talent in the system. Like I said, gonna need that ELC talent as time goes on.

Alflives Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Just now, King Heffy said: The 2nd created almost 5 mil of free cap space to do so now though, and you'd still have to find a way to clear that cap at the deadline. Yup. There was talk of us buying out Mik. This is a lot better. Cleared all his cap for basically (after the pick swap) a third round cost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmok Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 11 minutes ago, canucks curse said: = 14.10 we have now 21.45 in cap sp 7.35 to spend on silos, 1 D and 2 forwards Joshua = 3.5 silovs .950 Brett Murray .750 Myers 2.15 = no cap left Joshua needs to go. You don't sign that guy to a big raise after a single 18 goal season.. after not/barely being an NHL player at 28.. and also being pretty much invisible in all but 2 playoff games. Signing him to anything over 2x2 is going to be a mistake for whatever team does it mark my words. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LB28 Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 (edited) I never understood why they signed him in the first place. It was 5 million to play on the 3rd line.. it made 0 sense Edited June 27 by LB28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think JG is coming to Vancouver Guentzel may have something to say about that...he's gonna have a couple options it sounds like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know how many players the last two Cup winners had on their rosters that they drafted? Go check. It’s very interesting how clubs win now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48MPHSlapshot Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 7 minutes ago, canucks curse said: I have a feeling Myers gets squeezed out ? Zads will have to shift to the right and we sign a 2 mill LD man to play with Juulsen Really don't like the idea of resigning big Z just to try and convert him to RD. Defensemen are almost never as good playing on their off side. I'd rather just resign Myers and keep Zadorov on his natural side. Myers should only be about 3 mill or so. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHL97OneTimer Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 5 minutes ago, DeNiro said: For me it’s more about limiting deadline deals. A 2nd could land us a top 4 Dman or top 6 forward to put us over the top. It probably just landed us a top 4 D with the Big Z.......a bird in one hand is better than 2 in the bush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 5 million to play on the 3rd line.. it made 0 sense Because we were bad, thanks to Benning (the moran) and were building for a few years out, much like why the Hawks just took him on for pretty much no cost to us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless there’s a clear cut upgrade on Myers in the works, I can’t imagine there’s a better deal out there, value wise, than the chaos giraffe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck it. We're looking to upgrade. This is the cost of clearing a bad contract. We got a pick back, and now we can resign Zadorov, among others, so we can take the next step as a team.

He got injured in his first year in preseason and the next was a recovery year. We never really got see Mikheyev at his very best. I remember he used to be so fast in Toronto, injuries suck. He’s a good guy, I hope it works out well in Chicago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is, but playoff run or not I reckon he's more of a backup than a starter, guess we'll see how things go And I get it, it's just frustrating, this franchise has an unfortunate track record of frittering away 2nd rounders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
