  1. Lekkerimaki looks like he's packed on some muscle on those grind videos. I think he'll be a beast in the SHL this year.
  2. Where's the Canucks official deals!!!!???? Get going PA, I want to see another surprise move like Hronek.
  3. Some of you are so emotional it's hilarious. Cry for so long how we need a RD and now we whine and pretend we're super GMs when we get a really great puck mover. Chill out in the snow and smoke one. Just be patient and wait to see what happens next. It was always going to be a retool and not a rebuild.
  4. I will reserve my opinion for after the trade deadline. We gave up picks but let's see if they recoup any of those. I like Hronek but I love how pissed off Thomas Drance is right now. Dude thinks he's a hockey God of building teams.
  5. I'd love to get Ceulemans from them. We would have to take some cap back if we dealt them Demko so thats what I was thinking with Merzlikins. He may have fallen out of favor there but Clark's worked with him before and knows him well so if they pay ++ for Demko I'd be open to that deal especially if Ceulmans coming back.
  6. Jeff Marek mentioned Columbus as a team with interest in Demko. If they do value him highly and Demko wants out I wonder about a Merzlikins + swap . They have some good young defense we could target like Boqvist, Peeke, and Bean. I'd make that deal maybe with the hope Ian Clark bring Merzlikins back to form and help mentor Silovs. My valuation could be way off but the money makes sense and an educated risk if Clark believes in his goalie from the past.
  7. I'd agree with that sentiment on Beauvillier. It really could go either way but the style of player he is should be of value to what our team needs. We do need to have 2 more corresponding moves considering we've added his cap and the defense hasn't been addressed. Should be an interesting next month, at least I hope it will be.
  8. If Beauvillier can be a 20 goal scorer, bring speed, and play on the PK then I'll be happy with that piece. Might even thrive in a new system. He was arguably one of the Islanders best players in the playoffs the last two runs. He's not JUST a cap dump as some have stated. Although that theory has some weight to it, I just don't buy it.
  9. Went down a rabbit hole of everything Aatu Raty. Couldn't be more excited about the style of player we're getting. The combination of skill, size, 2 way play, powerforward traits, and determination has impressed me. Quite a few people are saying 3rd line centre but a lot of people were saying the same about Bo when he was drafted. Raty could be the perfect 2C behind Petey and its exciting to see how he will gel with the team when he eventually comes up.
  10. Ohmy!!!! Been a hot minute since I've been on here lately. A lot of emotions on both sides. I don't really see how anyone has an issue with this trade whatsoever. Low draft pick which rarely turn out to be NHL player for a D who is right handed and an NHL player plus a good player for Abbotsford most likely. That's a win no matter how you look at it. Hopefully he brings the Bear necessities because this team needs it.
  11. If I'm the Canucks I'm not taking anything less than Lafrenniere, Schneider, and a 1st which is a later pick anyway. Miller in his prime signed for another year, can play all 3 positions, great at faceoffs, is worth at least that. If those types of offers aren't there you don't trade him period.
  12. Also Victor Olofsson says hi. Not well over PPG but still ripping it up with the Sabres. Linus could easily carve out a middle six/ bottom six roll if his foot speed is up to snuff.
  13. Not even close to similar players. Not in size, not in play style.
  14. Anyone else think there may have been a secondary injury for Petey besides the wrist? A certain explosiveness is missing and with all that time off from game action, missing almost a year has to be a factor . I may he half a bottle deep on some Buffalo Trace but thats definitely starting to make a lot more sense right now. I still believe this kid is something special.
