Maniwaki Canuck Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 1 minute ago, Jaimito said: Not enough for Z and JG, bakcup etc Maybe they will need to trade more. But maybe just enough after LTIR With Poolman on LITR, it's actually 14.5. Signing Silovs shouldn't affect the total much since Tolopilo is already pencilled in at .95 mil. So still possible to do Guentzel at 9.5 and Zadorov at 5, if they'll settle for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If last year was an outlier, we have 3 more years of complaining to do I think the Athletic normally does an article every year in each teams efficient and inefficient cap management based on each players true talent value. Myers I believe was around 2 million prior to this season. So if he keep up his pace for 3 years, I think people won't have much to complain because 3 million would be near his true talent value. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locke Lamora Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Who first coined the “chaos giraffe” anyway? It’s genius really. I’m sure it annoys Myers but if I were him I’d embrace it. I use it as a term of affection more than derision myself. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we spent all that on JG and Zad, we'd have a 21 man roster. It's allowed but risky when it comes to injuries. Friedman comes in handy then as a 21st man who can play forward in a pinch. Also good that Abby is close by for callups, at least when we're playing at home. Not saying they want to do this or that they can necessarily pull it off, but it is a possibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck You Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 From so many interviews I've watched, I've seen how much his teammates have praised him and have often mentioned how he's a calm veteran presence..The players seem to love the guy and is great for overall team morale so who are we to say anything..Good enough for the team, Good enough for me..We are just outsider's looking in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmok Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 34 minutes ago, The Duke said: Soucy is signed to a fabulous 3.25 x 2 and is more than capable locking down the minutes he’ll have to play with Hughes on the top pair. There’s no reason to trade Soucy - I’d prefer him at his current deal to, say, Dillon who would still need to be signed if you traded him. It’s dangerous territory to have Juulsen on the 3rd pair without a 4-5 guy paired with him. I’ve said for awhile I’d prefer: Hughes-Hronek Soucy-Myers Zadorov-Juulsen but right now that Zadorov spot could probably be filled for 2-3 mil instead of 4-5. With maybe some money left over to upgrade on Juulsen… and it’s all moot until we figure out the top 6. I'm not saying they should trade Soucy.. I'm just saying that Zadorov is better than Soucy.. so when people make the argument that you can't pay Zad.. 4 something because he plays behind Soucy, i'm saying they are wrong and he shouldn't be behind Soucy because he is better. Zads is bigger, skates better, hits better, scores more, is more intimidating to other teams, is less injury prone, makes fewer bone headed mistakes, and the coaches used him more. He is just the better and more valuable player. I'm fine with Myers back.. but the team should be transitioning that Soucy/Myers pair to be the 3rd pair .. and a Zads and someone else as the second pair. Another reason I am not a fan of the Joshua signing. His money should go to making the defense bomb proof.. then let .. Podz, Karlsson, raty, sasson etc step up and take that 3rd line role for 1 mill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe in playoffs, but to get there, you need a defensively reliable guy like Soucy back there playing top 4 minutes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pianoman Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 I don’t understand why so many people are complaining….. this is an awesome deal if he plays anywhere close to how he did this year. Some other team would be offering him way more. I’m really excited to have him back at half the cost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he makes poor decisions on zone exists, can have below average gap control, and is poor holding the line. He also takes 3/4 of a period to take a shot. Having said that I LOVE that he broke 29s rib so he gets bonus points there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem isn't so much managing cap as covering for injuries. Emergency callups are a whole other technicality, like after the trade deadline. But yeah, I'd be a bit surprised to see them cut it this close to the bone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
