[RUMOUR] Brenden Dillon wants to sign in Vancouver


Recommended Posts

  • Elias Pettersson changed the title to [RUMOUR] Brenden Dillon wants to sign in Vancouver

If he would sign between 3-4 mil for 3 years it's a steal hes better defensively then big Z and would come alot cheaper they had same point total in reg season with Dillion having a +20 to Z +0.

 

Would give us more cap flexiblities to improve other areas.

Potentially losing Zadorov will hurt. But if Dillon does want to sign here, it could lead to more cap for a more balanced team.

 

We definitely can't replace Zadorov 1 for 1, but maybe we can collectively. I trust this management group to sort it out.

As much as I like Zad,

 

Dillon plus Tanev is better.

 

Zad was just commanding too much money

Rick Dhaliwal needs to stop pretending like he's some sort of insider. "With Zadorov gone..".. Has he signed elsewhere? No? Then shut the fuck up with the speculation like it's fact. You know nothing sir, stop pretending like you do. 

They just reported that zadorov will hit free agency. ....

 

And he is an insider lol

I swear that some of these guys are literally following these forums and turning our idle, rabid speculations into "Insider Rumours"

It was reported a while ago that he was going to test free agency, and no he is not. He literally parrots EF at every turn. He never breaks any news, nor does he ever have any original information. He's the new Eklund.

Nikita Zadorov was extremely good for us in the playoffs. And a character guy. And we did our best. He decided that he wanted to go somewhere else,” Allvin said.

Big Z wants to much, so i dont mind Z walking cause brenden dillion would be amazing in big z spot, so really no loss on big Z, just extra money to sign someone else 😛 and looking at dillions previous seasons hes always had a great plus/minus

English is his 2nd language, and he mentioned Zadorov a few times....

“And as of today, it appears we couldn’t go any further with Nikita Zadorov and he will test the free agency market. For us, it's just not about each individual. It's about getting a team that is competitive and fitting the puzzles [pieces] in. So that's the direction that Nikita has decided to go, and we did our best, and we couldn't go any further.”

Testing free agency does not mean he will not sign here. Just because a player wants to see what is available to him doesn't mean he's not coming back. We knew he was testing free agency a while ago, this is not new.

Yeah, if Zadorov is gone, that will hurt. He's a unique player, but if the ask is too much, management is wise to look elsewhere and spread the money around (especially when we still need a first/second pairing RD after Hronek)

Watch the interview. Zadorov wants to test free agency. He said they've offered what they can, he wants to see what the rest of the league offers. Nothing is set in stone.

 

Having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if a team overpays him.

You have to remember this is Christmas morning/Superbowl for these "Insiders" (aka PAYDAY from clicks) Media has become a nasty business
