  1. Maybe something in the works with TBL to package Cernak with TJ?
  2. Good luck to Ginger Bricks. I sincerely hope he regains his form on Long Island. Hip injury/surgery really did a number on him.
  3. Anyone feel Bowey may fill Stecher's spot? For the right price it may be worth investigating...
  4. Exactly. Business decision. Stecher plays well within his role. I hope the best for him if another team overpays but, in reality, if he understands his role/expectations with the Canucks I'm certain he would be welcomed back with a salary reflective of that role.
  5. Burnaby boy or not, there's no room in the Canucks organization for this train wreck...even at league minimum.
  6. Nice. Although Eriksson isn't owed much in actual salary (relatively speaking) I'm sure this could possibly be a detail that is being worked on. Especially when you consider the cap hit is still reflected in the percentage retained.
  7. I believe you're correct to a maximum of 50% retained.
  8. From my understanding only 50% salary can be retained. This could be for both remaining years.
  9. This could be a possibility. The retention could be for next year where his bonus is $1m and actual salary at $3m. for 2020-21 it's reversed where his bonus (already paid) is $3m where actual salary is $1m. Of course his cap hit remains at $6m. Perhaps the discussion between Benning and Armstrong could be what the retention is for next season?
  10. This should be a surprise to no one considering the Leafs cap situation.
  11. Having said that, you still wouldn't consider Boeser as a piece to land Ekblad? Because, as far as I'm concerned, that's what it would take to even begin the conversation.
  12. It didn't say and by no means am I under the impression it would take Boeser alone. I only put his name out there because that would most likely be where the conversation would start (and Pettersson/Horvat/Hughes should certainly be untouchable). I'm also quite certain that if indeed Ekblad is available there are many other teams which could/would offer a better package than Vancouver could put together.
  13. There is no "giving away" Boeser when the possible return is a player of Ekblad's character. He's also not overpaid, IMHO.
  14. Ekblad would be a tremendous add. I would be ok with trading Boeser in this scenario.
  15. I'm thinking Colorado as far as the cap space and win now goes. I'm not sure how close he wants to be to Toronto.
