Rekker Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 1 minute ago, HKSR said: I'm surprised Canucks retained him, but at that price point, it makes sense. $3.25M means he would need to be about a 30 point man to make the cap hit worthwhile. I think that's totally doable. On the open market I expected he would have got close to $4M (I predicted $3.8M x 4). Canucks got a bit of a discount here. I am pleasantly surpised as well as I thought he was good as gone. Really, it's like paying a second to aquire Joshua and lose Mik. Absolutely worth it and just excellent work by Alvin et all. Excellent. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alvin and Jim are better parents than prior administrations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you say 30 points is that factoring in things like PK and physicality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DexM94 Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 (edited) hummm okay but now we have the real holes to fill, and our space is diminushing, and don't tell me we go again with Suter on top 6. xxx Miller Boeser Hoglander Petey xxx Joshua Blueger Garland PdG Suter Podkolzin Aman Hughes Hronek xxx xxx Soucy Juulsen Friedman Demko xxx please dont go after Guentzel, we need to split space into two bonafides top 6 (Marchessault, Skinner, Toffoli) , Zadorov and a top 4 def (Dillon, Tanev...)

I don't agree with everything they do, but by and large they have absolutely done a much better job Could Joshua be a middle six tweener instead of a third liner?

Popular Post Dr. Crossbar Posted June 27 Popular Post Share Posted June 27 Looks like the players recognize the opportunity they all have together and are willing to be team friendly to take the next steps. Allvin also made it clear earlier they need guys to be team friendly. Things are clearly not happening at the extremes like so many feared, concerned, and stood fast on. 1 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 He is playing the role Mik was paid to do but didn’t. Good deal, need size up front desperately. Now Zads and a top 6 winger. ‘Never enough until have the cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 (edited) Another excellent deal imo, if he scores 20+ (which he would've this season w/o the injury) it can become a good value contract for us.
