He’s been crucial to our success this year. Probably the 6th or 7th most important forward that we can probably get back for less then 2mil/year. Motte is a keeper!

I just think a long term deal could add the canucks cap savings while giving Virtanen job security Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mottes tenacity solidifies his line , and his inclusion brings energy to the team and balances out all the lines above him.. we have played pathetically without him.. plays a 6’ / 200’ game.. dangerous as a pk’r. Its Sutter, Baertschi, and Eriksson that the .org needs to concentrate on moving.. without their displacement the system that Benning has implemented, our Prospects getting their FAIR and Deserved opportunity to show become stagnated. Motte has become everything that the Blackhawk .org was hoping for. Yes, Motte is a keeper. 2 more years at least, have him for a 3rd and trade him as an asset that year. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to see Motte given some games further up the lines. Probably won't happen unless injuries happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borvat Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 It looks likely that Tryamkin's team (Avto) makes the playoffs. They would have to play pretty bad to drop out completely. 62 games total for the season. Look who is dominating the KHL. Our very own Linden Vey. Maybe Willie D was onto something. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh weird, they reported on the radio yesterday the Ferland was coming off the LTIR but I’m going to side with cap friendly on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Jake, but if Boeser is making 5.8 on a bridge I’m not sure he’s worth much more then 3. and given Jake’s history of inconsistent play and lack of effort at times, I’m not sure I’d ever give him more than 3 years on a contract. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably won't happen unless injuries happen. Motte is not better than anyone in the top 9 though, so why should he get that shot? I agree that if injuries occur then maybe he could get a shot.

I agree that if injuries occur then maybe he could get a shot. I suggested Motte get shifts in the top 9 because of his play to date and the need to know how he would perform. He drives play and has a good chance of still being with the team in 2-3 years when they are CUP contenders. IMHO Sutter, Erickson and maybe Roussel won't be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think Edler has been here a long time, he's older than Edler by a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsiders Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) Getting pretty excited hoping Tryamkin can join us near March! He's going into his prime at 25 and I would love to see him on our team again! Canucks can't mess this up and hopefully Tryamkin has matured over the last 3 years. I know it all depends on play, but from what I saw from Tryamkin when he was here is he wasn't a liability out there. My guess is he has only gotten better since then. So when/if he comes over the Canucks absolutely cannot make him the 6/7th D and play him like 10 mins a night. They have to give him prime opportunity to succeed and in my opinion that is playing next to Quinn Hughes. Since Tanev is likely gone (will command 5+ if he stays healthy all season on a 3-4 year deal, which we can't afford). I'd like to these pairings the day Tryamkin comes over. Edler-Myers Hughes-Tryamkin Benn-Tanev Edit - Should add Stecher traded at deadline. Bring Rafferty up until Tryamkin comes over.
