  1. Zadarov is essentially as awkward as Myers can be, with a bit more physicality in terms of hits... If you think Myers gets too many penalties... Zadorov gets more on a team that has much better transition numbers than the canucks. Anyways Zadorov is a big no, especially since he's a LHD
  2. I had to double take on the players point values and contracts they just signed... lol I'd rather have Copp.... especially at the 2 years less term lol
  3. Great thoughtful post. My trade was generally based on the Weber trade. I figured there would be some sort of cap gymnastics that a team would abuse the way the lightning has in the past. I suppose Ferland could be removed out of the trade and as you said Canucks probably have to add a bit more especially if the evaluation on the negative value of JVR is a second rounder. Interestingly Patrick Marleau was traded in 2019 with a first round pick with 1 year 4.5m cash. Might be the outlier of values but it's worth noting that these types only really occur when a team has desperation to clear up space.
  4. Really all depends on if they want to "go for it" Not really arguing I think these types of trades happen in a blue moon but it's well to denote that they would be getting the 15OA in return. Of course there's been many rumors of their interest in Gaudreau... Cap space is highly needed for that to happen. If they are pretty confident of that happening then 15OA and Gaudreau seems appealing.
  5. Philly is in need of cap space. Van can accomodate on short term relief if it means an increase in assets... Curious on how realistic this looks for both teams PHI receives: VAN 15 OA pick Ferland (3.5m LTIR relief 2.75 actual money ) Van receives: PHI 5 OA pick JVR (7m cap - 5m actual money) Essentially the value is 10 spots for: 2.75m cash 7m cap space freed up 3.5m cap overage leverage in LTIR. The whole LTIR thing is complicated but I think it allows them to go over the cap by 3.5m which I would think is a good thing for them. Perhaps if someone has a better understanding of the intricacies of LTIR they can explain why it or why not.
  6. If PLD was a righty center I'd say that is be in the market to trade Miller and Garland to get assets to expend on that kind of trade Perhaps it'd be more prudent to use those assets to draft a RH center down the road. For the center depth I think I'm in on signing Malkin for two years also not a center but as a UFA doesn't cost us anything but cap space Potentially able to trade with retention in year two as well.
  7. Maaaaaybe Malkin? The thing I like most about signing him is the term would likely be 2-3 years and perhaps a nice stopgap if Miller is traded
  8. I wonder if the best thing is to try and resign Boeser on a 2x6m deal. He gets more money than his QO overall and puts him into UFA at the age of 27. Canucks get a manageable cap for a goal scoring winger but more importantly the Boeser contract becomes a known contact with no arbitration cases looming that I would imagine is more appealing to trade.
  9. I had to relookup crouse... Not sure how a 20-25 point 25 year old is worth a first and a 3rd... This is his 6th season in the NHL... I repeat 6th and he's never eclipsed 30points.... I don't hate Thomas but really if Miller is getting moved I'd prefer it fixed the defense.
  10. Hamonic was having a really good game was a little worried when he limped off. Hunt probably gets a chance under a new coach before they go dipping into Abby I do wonder if we could develop Rathbone in Abby to play on his off side right side. Guy has a wicked slapper which would be primed for use
  11. Sutter is a good locker room guy, perhaps he can also give him his jersey number 20
  12. honestly not sure if Savard is any good anymore or not... he played fairly limited minutes in Tampa and was a roughly even player (in playoffs)... Being on a great and deep team like Tampa this leaves me a little hesitant. That said being said with the defensive core they have there its obvious he was utilized in a limited role in favor of the bigger name players. Just saying not sure if he's earned such high regard as he seems to be getting. Being age 31 (birthday in October) vs Poolman age 28 (birthday in June) we will have Poolman on his more valuable years and will his contract will expire before his eventual decline
  13. He'll have to get recognized of this team goes from the dumps of last year to a playoff team this year lol Pretty funny that he could be the only gm of the year that has a fan base calling for his job
  14. Game Log for Winnipeg comparing Josh Morrissey vs Poolman There are many who feel like Poolman was their 7th but when the chips were all in for the playoffs Winnipeg chose to play him at a fair rate in comparison to their #1 utilized defenseman Overall he seems like he's average defenseman that can hold his head above water and has decent size. Term is a bit long but 2.5m is probably just fine.
