  1. Burroughs was too lightweight for being a fighter. He was not a sollution for the team. It’s better to do these kind of decision asap.
  2. Maybe because I’m an optimist? You trashtalk a lot and therefor my posts go against your inner self so you go into denial. Flatearthers and Trumpists are the same. The ”other” side always makes little or no sense at all.
  3. Anthony showed pretty simple why EK is better than Hughes for now. I’m not sure why you need to discuss it any further. Just the stat where it shows how many points Hughes get from PP versus EK should be enough.
  4. You talked about 3 mill to the Oilers. Why change that? There is always a risk involved with a player that has been injured so much but I would trust our medics regarding that bit if he was signed. but for 6,75 mill hmm, it’s hard and it signals all in with him and Hughes for four years. with him we’re cup contenders instantly. We can have our AHL players filling up at the D and still win enough. With Hronek we go for more than four years since he and Petey together with Silovs, Lekkerimäki, Räty etc is going for 10 years.
  5. I’m not sure what you’re talking about here. You actually want another team to get an excellent player for 3 mill and win a cup instead of that the Canucks take him for 3 mill and win the cup…
  6. EK is a teams top producer. Hughes isn’t Canucks top producer. With EK we can have another Sedin era for at least four seasons when Hughes and EK go on as they did.
  7. The big picture is what attracts. Think of Hughes, Petey, Miller, Kuz, Mikh and Boeser and then add a monster as EK. Wich team can defend against that? The other team has to have two really good shutdown lines Then we have the fact that if we snag him, no one else will. Any one of the top teams or those like the Oilers with top players will be a contender with him. So take away him from other teams is well worth at least 8 mill and get rid of two wingers. Oh, and I have to add… Wich signals will it send to other teams, fans etc if we take EK instead of Dumba. Planning the parade maybe
  8. It’s better if you figure out how much the Sharks should retain if we get him and what will he cost in picks etc… EK is even better than Hughes for now.
  9. Nope, it was the medias main selling point. PAs selling point was speed as a difference maker. Remember that for future discussions
  10. Is Lindholm ready to take on 3C for us til Räty comes up to 3C and Lindholm let Miller be an olderman on the wing instead?
  11. I focus on the speed wich is the main thing with Mikh. If he only were good at PK PA wouldn’t have taken him but he still takes him for the speed as a difference maker offensively.
  12. Was that PA or some journo talking? I don’t see the Allvin quote there. What JR said earlier was that they had get quicker. If that forward also does PK the PK bit is the bonus. But can you find a quote from either JR or PA that they got Mikh because of PK I surrender.
  13. If I do the math OEL and Myers is over 13 mill so we can change them to Karlsson and a 1,5 mill LHD enforcer and it’s cheaper. Hughes Karlsson Hirose. Hronek Whatever Whatever We can actually have our forwards as D when Hughes and Karlsson circle around
  14. If PA manages to get Carlsson Örebro will have a lot of interest from Canucks fans. Carlsson, Lekkerimäki and Petey Jr playing together.
  15. Nope, it was his speed first and foremost. Only PK can cannon fodder do perfectly well but we lacked speed in top 6.
  16. I would say it is about being in a society or stay outside. Similar to libertarians. They haven’t got a clue what to do.
  17. The problem with that rule is that the person using it has to be very intelligent. Or else it’s a dumb person doing things he believes others do unto you. Misunderstandings happens a lot, just watch this forum…
  18. That article lost me when they talked about pressure on PA. PA has no pressure to use the pick wisely. He can go numerous ways and everyone is positive til we know how the player develop. There is only a few picks that are a guarantee wich means no pressure at all…
  19. And I can’t forget that Stecher was the one coming out on top in the playoffs while being under attack all the time. 9+ while Petey and Miller were 2 and 3 +. The eyes fool many it seems.
  20. They have sn influence but to say they ”forced” Benning is wrong. They said what they believed in and then Benning has to decide, not the Sedins. Benning sure sound like a very weak GM that never once was the person that decided anything.
