  1. This guy lives for engagement without giving anything real to engage with. Here’s an article he wrote earlier this summer. Barely a couple hundred words about how Hoglander being waived exempt means he might start in the AHL. only problem is… Hoglander isn’t waiver exempt! He will need waivers to go to the AHL, but Sekeres suggests he needs to play 2 more NHL games before being waiver eligible. The entire premise of the article is wrong! Yet it is still up with no correction or edit added how this passes as journalism is beyond me. https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/waiver-eligibility-nils-hoglander-canucks
  2. Van will be cap compliant with hog signed in one of 2 scenerios: 1) Pearson is still injured when the season starts and is placed on LTIR. Canucks will capture the space for his contract. 2) Pearson is healthy when the season starts and the Canucks waive him and send him the AHL like they did with Hamonic 2 years ago. They will open enough space to keep hoggy on the main roster. I highly, highly doubt Pearson will be in the starting lineup on opening night regardless of his health, purely due to how much time he has missed and how difficult training has been and still is for him until his hand is healed
  3. It’s time for hockey fans to stop pretending Rachel Doerrie is some kind of insiders. She speculates wildly and is constantly proven wrong. I give more credence to Eklund.
  4. Probably the fact the contract becomes easier to dump. there is no business or hockey reason to pay the bonus early other than to make the player more tradeable. League would identify this as a cap saving move and penalize as such. also Canucks aren’t allowed to do things
  5. That article sources it’s info from the Rachel Doerrie quote originally mentioned in this thread I think it is very fair to be skeptical of her info
  6. Meant 2nd fastest. Oops! Petterson just did it in 305 and is 2nd
  7. Happy Game Day! Both miller and petey will find themselves landing additional spots in the Canucks all time record books if they can get 5 points (or more) each before the end of the season. for Miller, it will bring him to 300 points as a Canuck, making him the 2nd fastest canuck to do so in 283 games (or less). for Pettersson, he will join JTM and Pavel Bure as the only other players in franchise history to average a point per game or better in the Canuck careers. Pettersson will also tie Daniel Sedin and Markus naslund for the 5th highest scoring season in franchise history. let’s see if they can do it! edit: had the Miller stat wrong. It’s been corrected now
  8. Believe they had interest in Boeser at the TDL so that could be a good option
  9. Basically, KK fits our age group very well, younger than Hughes. 7 more years on his deal so no worries about re-signing or anything. Cap hit is high but will age well as cap increase. 4+ million 3Cs will be common place in 3 years. very good defensively, active stick good board play and has really filled out last couple years (6’ 200 lbs) 40 point pace this year. Probably reliable 40 point player going forward if you can send one of Boeser or garland back to even out the cap hit, this should be a no brainer target for vancouver.
  10. 1 like = 1 belief bring him home boys
  11. The absolute disrespect Lucas Forsell is getting in this thread is shameful
  12. Another great game from podz. Confident carrying the puck, a few drives to the net, winning battles down low and controlling the cycle. Knows when to push and when to regroup. loving his game down in Abby lately
