One thing to add is the worrisome that not only American but now Canadian born players is the risk they could bolt from small market Canadian teams (not named Toronto) to US teams as soon as they hit UFA status or even sooner. For some reason Vancouver has been a desirable place for Scandinavian born players to live and raise families. I know there are exception, but it seems as if now more than ever that this is becoming a reality. IMO it’s going to be a factor moving forwards with drafting and acquiring talent.

You only have so many picks in a draft and the Canucks clearly needed a RHD. They drafted a RHD and people are still bitching because apparently some 5’7 playmaker was still on the board. How’s Kyler Yamamoto working out for Edmonton? Good size, great skating, and wants to be in Vancouver. I call it a win @ #11 until further notice.

Gotta remember at the end of the day most professional athletes are mercenaries who choose to chase financial security over loyalty and Horvat is no exception no matter how Canuck nation tries to spin it. He wanted the bag and ultimately got it. Sure, he was Canucks captain for many years but at the end of the day I don’t think he really gave a flying F about the crest on the front of his jersey and chose what’s best for him and his family which is a new team with a rather large, inflated contract given his skill level.

[PGT] Toronto Maple Leafs at Vancouver Canucks | Mar. 04, 2023
Pickly replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
All I can say is thank god the Canucks beat the Leafs on a prime time Saturday game puck drop adjusted solely for the fact people in Toronto could watch it. God I hate everything Toronto. -
(Rumour) 4 teams interested in J.T. Miller

And Friedman has come out and shut down that rumour. The media knows exactly how to stir up the Canuck fan base because most people buy into everything they hear. -

Dreger has never been a good insider so I would take what he said with a massive grain of salt. The amount of misinformation out there is astonishing and people get roped into it hook line and sinker every single time.
