Emil Hemming off to a scorching start to the year, kid can fill the net and already has the body of a man at 17.25 years old.

If Demko gets hurt at all this season this trade will be worth its weight in gold. You need a capable backup in todays NHL.

Its a 3rd round and we get a backup goalie we desperately needed. Saves us from losing a asset by having to run a 22 man roster to be cap compliant. While I hate giving up picks this seems like a good trade for both sides.

Have Babcock check his phone first.....

Just what we need 5'11" utility forwards with low ceilings. Its not like you can sign these type of guys in FA or trade late round picks for fully developed ones.

Av's will likely be competing for the cup this year again. They already have plans to keep Landeskog out for the regular season to be magically ready to do for playoff ala Stone and Kucherov.

No we need move on after this year and give the opportunity to someone younger.

Beau is still a really good third line winger and in his prime. Unless we can use his cap saving to better the team before the start of the season, I dont see the point. If they have another potential deal that requires cap space on the table then by all means ship him out as fast as you can.

Trading Myers or Beau doesnt make us a better team unless we are getting similar type players back on 1 year deals that fill our needs more. Better off waiting until trade deadline at this point.

Too much risk of being stuck with another anchor contract, would rather pay more for a younger asset.

It says they he was getting 2nd pairing TOI last year, probably thrown to the wolves on a bad team, he could be a good bottom pairing guy/depth Dman.

We can still sign guys close to league min as they can be subbed in for other players of similar salary with no real cap implications.

Yeah pretty unimpressed with Studnicka last year he could definitely be on the outside looking in. There is also a couple longshot guys like Karlsson and Mcdonough that will be aiming for a spot. Currently only two spots open with, Pearson, Studnicka, PDG, and Aman all gunning for them. If we are in cap trouble that two spots become one, they may opt to go with the younger players that still have some runway.

Im not sure PDG makes the team, if we run 13 forwards he has to beat out one of Joshua, Hoglander. or Aman for the spot if we run 14 forwards he still needs to beat out Studnicka and Pearson for the last spot if Pearson is healthy which I dont think he is.

“The indication I got from his agent and from our medical staff is that the hand is healed, and Tanner is working really hard to to be the in his best shape and participate in training camp” Canucks medical staff also evaluated his hand but they also dont have the best track record. Maybe as he got to more advanced drills he noticed discomfort. Would be best case scenario and allow us to sign Bear. Kuzmenko - Petey - Boeser Mikheyev - Miller - Garland Beau - Blueger - Podz Joshua - Suter - Aman Hoglander - Studnicka Hughes - Bear Soucy - Hronek Cole - Myers Wolanin Demko Martin Would be nice

Something is going on here. Maybe they convinced Pearson to stay home.

Done quickly.... its Aug 11. I wonder if they had the deal done for a while, and are just announcing it now as they have another deal lined up to move cap.

Great Signing!

6 legit NHL dmen would be nice. I'm not excited at the fact we may lose Woo, showed some real good progress last year and was probably the most physical Dman in Abby last year (just shy of 100 PM's).

Bure - Linden - Smyl Jovo Cop - Salo Miller

I thought he looked like a legit top 4 Dman in our bubble run even though he put up zero points and took lots of penalties, he brought some much needed physically that helped us overcome Minnesota and St Louis. He definitely brought the chaos.

I hope we dont trade Myers for a forward, would be dumb. We only have 5 proven and capable NHL dmen, if we trade Myers we are down to 4. When injuries hit our paper thin D depth will get exposed. We have a lot of plug ins like Juulsen, Breezy, Woo, Johansson, Hirose, Wolanin, Rathbone but none of them have proven they can be a consistant NHL Dman nevermind lock down a top 4 spot. One or two of them may get there in time but need at least one more year to find out. Wolanin is probably the closest to being an regular NHL D man.

Him and Bahl could make a great bottom pairing if they both pan out.

I would say the mountains of personal information and huge customer base are worth way more than their branding. As one of the biggest social media companies would be very easy to build brand awareness for a new name and logo.

I think that was the previous year, his ice time dropped to just over 12 mins in the playoffs last year and his corsi numbers were not pretty (only 4 game same size though). Regular season minutes dropped to just over 14 mins. He is 37 years old his body probably has felt better.
