You’re arguing with the Empties, which is a losing cause. Time to bow and kneel in respect. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wing Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago Good finally got this done. Yea there was really nothing out there for Lankinen to hold out for if he wants another NHL contract. Good on our management to wait it out. I'm sure they target him for a reason. I trust their pro scouting. Unfortunately his probably means Silovs will go back to minors after Demko returns unless he vastly outplays Lankinen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he's played in the NHL. 112 games. He was the backup for the Predators and put up some good numbers last two years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago If management wonder's why fans don't trust them, this doesn't help. Wonder how long Demo will take to recover. (Gulp, if he recovers...) 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket-68 Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago On a serious note, regardless of when Demko is game ready and Silovs is or isn't send down, this give a lot of options including TDL bait if he lights it up. Happy days my fellow Canuck fans, happy days indeed! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alflives Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago We have a really good team again. The Jimbob (moron leadership) lays are gone. Players will want to come here, especially on one year deals. They know their chances of getting a big contract the following season increases a lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our management knows this is a prime spot for free agents. They know that Lankonen knows this is his best spot too. He could have likely gone elsewhere for a bit more money but the club wouldn’t be as good as ours so he’d look bad and not build for his next contract. Thank the Gods Jimbob is long gone.

Jess Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago A steal for a good backup. Only weird part is this might mean Silovs is back in Abby once Demko is ready, though there's a chance Silovs surprises and beats out Lankinen. Lankinen would probably be traded if that's the case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanky (that’s his new nickname) is way better, right now, than Silovs. Silovs is a very good (but still developing) AHL level goalie. That’s actually where he belongs.

VforTheCurseEndsHere Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago PA absolutely waiting him out and didn't budge. What a boss. I don't think this means anything about Demko beyond the fact that no one can tell the future and hoping he recovers and expecting he will recover are two very different things. Insurance.

Maniwaki Canuck Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago Huge signing at a bargain price. The only position we don't have superb organizational depth at now is LD. Pretty certain that will come some time between now and the trade deadline. Could be as early as the waiver deadline if Lekkerimaki makes the team and we have to move a forward.
