  1. Desmith has .914 career save % he isn’t some chump there’s value here Canucks couldn’t run it back with Martin and expect him play 25 games
  2. To Car: beau, Myers, podz, 1st pick 2024 (unprotected) to van: Pesce, teravainen money is about the same, and ONLY trading a first if we are on the cusp of the playoffs sign Pesce to a 6.5m/7yr deal…he’ll be looking at severson/graves type money then sign bear to a 1yr/1m in Dec Kuzmenko-pettersson-mikheyev teravainen-Miller-boeser pearson-suter-garland joshua-blueger-hoglander hughes-Pesce soucy-hronek cole-bear demko
  3. In any Pesce trade I’d expect Carolina to want to immediate help with scoring beau, hoglander or podz, 1st pick 2024 (unprotected) only moving that pick if we are going for the playoffs so making it unprotected doesn’t matter as it’ll fall around the 18th pick
  4. https://www.sportsnet.ca/podcasts/32-thoughts/ start at 14:00 Essentially Pesce was given permission to talk to two other teams recently about an extension but couldn’t come to terms. Carolina may keep him for the time being, but after this season it looks like he’ll be moving on…at least at this point
  5. The number 1 need for this team is finding a top 4 d-man to be a long term partner for hughes Pesce is the guy we all hope for and I don’t know if CAR has the money to keep him around but he is American and may not be so keen on paying those Vancouver/Canadian taxes hughes-pesce soucy-hronek hirose-cole brisebois-irwin now that’s a blueline that can compete against any team in the show
  6. Great move don’t let this fester with the Vancouver media, just name your guy and get to work. petey and Miller will be A’s I assume secondly, I don’t think petey has the right personality to deal with the demands of being a captain and Miller is just TOO honest sometimes to be in that role every day thus hughes is the right call
  7. This isn’t really news…? we kinda already saw this coming months ago the Canucks can massage their cap with the roster they have with running a 22 man roster if need be or mikheyev goes on IR to start the year so there isn’t too much pressure
  8. If the Canucks could pull something like that off our blueline would be completely remodeled in a few months time hughes-peeke cole-hronek soucy-Myers irwin-juulsen peeke has holes in his game just like everyone other dman who’s ever played the game but I truly believe hughes could elevate his game…look how good he made juulsen look
  9. Great deal both sides Gotta think this deal is going to get brought up once or twice in the petey negotiations
  10. I was hoping for under 1m but 1.1m is still a great deal his cap hit can still be buried if he doesn’t take the next step
  11. I’d take that with the smallest grain of salt possible
  12. I ASSUME this includes a 6.5m/8yr extension for pesce and this would free up around 6.5m in cap space for the 23-24 season to make another move…
  13. Tidy little piece of business getting him on a 2 year deal Spending some time in Abby will make him a better player in the long term Playing the slow game with young players is always the best way to go
  14. I think the Canucks only way to really improve this D and put a cherry on top of of their good moves this off season is a TRUE top 4 guy to play with hughes pesce, Carlo, tanev(?) etc Related move as well is moving out myers 6m and moving that money further up the line up
  15. He’s a real good number 7 guy but a legit playoff contender won’t have him in their top 6
  16. Bit rich at 3m… But I like cole so we’ll how it goes
  17. Good penalty killer I’m so sick of having a pathetic penalty kill And he’ll help
  18. Not an everyday NHL dman so that’s a bit rich good for him but we can see why the Canucks went with juulsen
  19. Hughes-xxxxx xxxxx-hronek xxxxx-Myers brisebois-juulsen poolman? It would be great if we knew if he can still play
  20. Pesce is the perfect partner for Quinn BUT he’ll come in at 6.5m x 8 years at 29 years of age and that’s a similar deal hronek is going to get be careful what you wish for… hughes-pesce soucy-hronek that’s pretty sick doe
