Dizzle Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 2 minutes ago, flat land fish said: Part of the reason bleuger and Joshua are back is to playbwith Garland. That lines ability to dictate play is the biggest reason we won the division. Again… I get that. I’m just saying, he is the last bigish contract that could free up space for another significant move. I don’t personally think they’ll move him… for exactly the reason you said… but it’s also not optimal to have a guy making 5 a year on the third line. for example… maybe they think Hoglander can do what garland did to a lesser extent and have an ability to bring in a real impact winger for Petey to play with and decide it’s worth it.

It's alright. I like the player, but his age is the real factor here. Veteran presences are usually older though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket-68 Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 10 minutes ago, JeremyCuddles said: According to Capfriendly we have 19/23 roster spots accounted for with 12mil in cap. So, yeah. I don't see Guentzel and Zads in our future. One or the other. We arguably needed two top 6 forwards and a top 4 D. And we may end up with just one top 4 D. Like I said earlier, we're gonna be strutting out some more tweeners for Petey to try carry. Then we'll inevitably blame him for not doing enough with, let me check my notes, a 1mil Hoglander and Lafferty 2.0. What a scrub. It could be that the Canucks talked to Gunner last couple of days and found his number was approaching McJesus "let's extend" numbers and so have already passed. Who knows? Trust in PA / JR, we will be standing on the big dance floor next June looking back and saying "Deeeyaaaammmmnn, remember when we all thought....."

Locke Lamora Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Not a fan of the third year, but I am a big fan of last years version of Myers. If he can be a reasonable facsimile of that for a couple more years I’m good with this. I trust Tocchet and his cadre of ex-defensemen coaches to sustain his level of play a little longer.

Dizzle Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 3 minutes ago, PureQuickness said: With the two signings of Joshua and Myers, I think it's ~12 M. Tuff to see Zad and one of those high end forwards for that. Reinhart might be 7-8 on a normal year… but popping off for over 90 points may change that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RupertKBD Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 There's an old hockey saying, boys and girls: "You can't teach reach". Also, defensemen can generally be effective at an older age than forwards. I'm not concerned about paying 3 million to a veteran defender. Especially a giant one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck You Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Taking 50% off from the last contract is pretty substantial..Could have easily got 4 plus in UFA , I'm cool with it, He played pretty decent in the playoffs. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a big rink also wich would have been worse. If Myers stay as a D and don’t flounder away in the offensive zone he is really good.
