[Rumour] Canucks getting calls on Thatcher Demko
RakuRaku replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I'd say no to trading Demko... he's still young and capable of bouncing back!! You just can't find a solid young goalie at $5M AAV anywhere these days... unless you wanna roll with Delia and Silovs next season for tanking purposes OR blow $6M+ for a veteran goalie who may or may not be as good as Demko..... so what is the point?? Just focus on trading Boeser plssssssssssssssssssssssss...... I'd be happy with Marcus Petersson and/or Pierre-Oliver Joseph + Samuel Poulin (if we must retain some % of Boeser's salary) -

(Rumour) 4 teams interested in J.T. Miller

True.... but it'd really suck balls to just have Petey as our top centre and the rest are just meh...... aka Dries/Raty/Aman/Studnicka I smell a long long road ahead to a full rebuild... but I don't mind as long as there are some solid prospects that are close for prime time!! -

Ya.... I don't quite get the logic.. it was Ruthie that signed JT to a massive deal and gave up on Bo.... and now he will most likely have to sacrifice some cap$ by salary retention to offload him.... such a mess.... I don't see any potential FA's we can pick up in summer that's remotely close to JT's calibre though... so we just have to brace for another 2-3 years to see some playoff hockey! -

but my worry is, the Pens will make us eat like $2M+ per year..... then it won't be worth it.... unless we are getting 2 real good young players back... are Poulin and Pickering real good? -

Well...................... as much as I hate how JB messed up our spending over the years, I'm kinda leaning towards saying, this one is on Dickie!!! He showed glimpses of a solid 3C so he got paid to perform accordingly.... then his wheels just fell off.... But ya... those Beagle and Roussel deals by JB still stink!!

Hmmmm.. so u think this "minor injury" is just smokescreen to keep him out of the lineup?? well, as long as we are geting decent returns, I don't mind seeing him gone since his age is working against him... u just never know when he'll start regressing... but will be sad to see a proven power forward go -

What is the urgency to get rid of JT unless you're confident we'd get a potential #2 centre in return?? and it would really suck if we had to retain some % of his salary while enabling contendting teams to reap benefits of his production! Boeser needs to go NOW!! he gets paid pretty damn good $ to score goals and it doesn't seem like it'll happen consistently.... -

So... if it's just a minor injury, are we still getting calls for him?? Honestly, I'd trade Boeser before JT..... it's not that easy to get a #1 power forward that covers both C and W who can put up numbers consistently... if you wanna sign up a younger guy producing the same in the FA market, it'll easily cost $8M+ AAV not knowing the sure fit! Let's hope we'll continue to shed salaries between now and Friday! Let's Goooooooooooooooooooo -

Such a wonderful day for Nucks fans!! We were first treated to some Kravtsov excitement, followed by Jackets win + Ducks win + Canucks loss!!! Can't get any better than that!! Now my wish is to see Boeser and Myers traded by TDL!!
