tas Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 thank. god. not only does that mean the canucks can't saddle themselves with that guy, it also means the next 6 weeks here will be far less annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nancouver Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I had a feeling kane would re sign in san jose, his personality definitely suits cali. I’m sure he loves the lifestyle down there and he produced well for the sharks down the stretch.Can’t help but feel relieved he didn’t sign here though.

He "disappeared" for long stretches in his career where a month with a goal and maybe two assists would be all he would show up for. When contracts like this are signed and people complain about the contract for Sutter I shake my head. I think he'll work out just fine for awhile but happens if they start sucking a bit? Does Kane dissapear? Quite possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been to San Jose and San Fran. It's beautiful and even prettier with 49 million in your jeans. Too much for Kane IMHO. I would of maybe done 6 for 6 but even that's a stretch. Look up his career stats. Underwhelming for all the hype around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoneypuckOverlord Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 no way we can offer that, I liked the idea of finally having a east van native play for the Canucks 7 mill x 7 is too much for us, kinda making the Ericksson signing look good now. this could mean Thornton is done in San Jose?

Smashian Kassian Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 7 x 7 is alot. I don't think the Canucks should have signed him to that had the opportunity come. A bit too much $$$ and the contract takes him till he's 33. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6string Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Good for Evander and the Sharks I can see him wearing an A there over the next few years, yes I said that ..an A! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomeBrew Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 That much for someone who's only produce over 50 pts once?! I'm glad he's signed long term over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Points are not everything. The cap will be about 80 mill. $7 mill isn't what it used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemingly good fit in SJ Defiantly overpaid, he’s getting more than hall, mackinnon and gaudreau. i wouldn’t have gone over 6m at least now that domino has fallen early so we can move on Yeah man thats a touch over what 99% of ppl would have paid. More than Johnny hockey... And Hall.. Thats pushing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a good fit in SJ but my guess this contract will look like Lucic's sooner than later. my concern was someone coming forward with a new allegation once a deal was signed.... i guess we'll find out. I'm disappointed to lose a chance at the skill set, the person.... we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, figured if that's the money and term it would take to get him, hoping we'd pass. Looks like decision's been made for us but would definitely, definitively, and defiantly rather have Kane than Lucic on that deal. We're going to sign UFAs this summer but may well be holding tonnes of cash still come training camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

combover Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Looking like another batch of “c” grade ufas to fill the roster July 1st. That cap space money burning a hole in spender Jim’s leg. I was was hoping for E kane but oh well perineal bottom feeders rarely get top ufas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JV77 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Overterm and overpaid. He was good for tem fit well, but wasn't spectacular out of this world either. Sharks with a dumb dumb signing and don't see them a legit contender. Good for Kane though, did what he had to do to cash in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, Loui is overpaid, but not by as much as some think. Solid defensively, needs more offensive output and I would not be surprised to see him get 20-25 goals this year. Should get a bit more offensive time with the twins being gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
