That's awesome, because I think @Alflives was ready and willing to take the bullet for the team ...... An old man and his scooter are to be feared. I still have Loui lined up to be going to “Broken Toe” island. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not to say all of Jim's signings have been great, they haven't been. But this one was a great one. Pretty sure it was sarcasm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobayashi Maru Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) 2 minutes ago, Bure_Pavel said: Great signing, Benning has figured out how to do UFA signings. Once he gets trades down pat we will be set. Haha this is so true. Let's all take a moment now to realize that Myers and Ferland were signed at under market value by JB. Easy if one of them completely drops off a cliff to say they were bad signings (by the revisionist historians), however at this point in time I think we can all realize we got great value for both of them.

Statistically: - We have enough production to make the playoffs. - Improved defense to prevent more goals than last year - So therefore odds are Markstrom and Demko will have a much better season. Considering JB had the confidence to trade our 1st, this should all tell us something. 2 3 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone said it in this thread above but this totally is starting to remind me of that '94 team, which honestly was really similar to the Blues team that just one this year. We look really deep at this point up front. I would LOVE seeing Ferland with Bo and Pearson. I can see this allowing Miller to play his preferred position at centre, and likely means Sutter is out. Pearson - Horvat - Ferland Baertschi - Petterson - Boeser Leivo - Miller - Virtanen Roussel - Beagle - Motte Ferland will be playing with Petey and Boeser. He’s there to protect, create havoc and room. Miller slides down with Bo 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MikeBossy Posted July 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2019 Ferland at 3.4 million for 4 years is much better than Lucic at 6 million for 4 more years - and to believe some people advocated getting him from the Coilers 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckledraggin Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Just now, mll said: The amount of cap space that can be banked with players on LTIR is pretty limited. If they are unable to bank cap space the Canucks will have to be 3M under the cap to take him off LTIR. Yeah, but unless Roussel is way ahead of schedule, they have until December to figure that out. Also they are likely to have another injury or 2 to add to LTIR by that time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Miller, this team is going to be big, fast, skilled and Nasty. I think Jake is going to learn a lot from Ferland as well. We all know players play “bigger” when someone takes that lead. I’m hoping some of his Physicality rubs off on Bo as well, but thats not a major issue. But should Bo start using his size as more of a weapon, watch out! The way Bo crashes the net is more than enough for me. Knowing Bo, he'll add hitting to his repertoire if he sees it as a necessary improvement. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Ghost Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Just now, debluvscanucks said: Can they throw in something about how much better the Leafs do it too? Just to round it out a bit? It sure gets old and tired, doesn't it? I mean, I would expect the team friendly deals and great fit of Ferland, Miller, Myers, and Benn would at least give Benning a moderate comfort level to now include a quality sweetener to get Eriksson offthe books and to trade a guy like Baertschi, Sutter, Goldobin, etc to recoup the prospect/pick he will be giving up. I have had my complaints about Benning but I will say that this is the first summer where the puzzle picture is very clear in terms of what he is doing and why. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HerrDrFunk Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 For those wondering where the cap space to sign Boeser will come from: Move on from Goldobin, send two guys to the minors and there's 8 million for Brock. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boeser is great and Petey is out of this world, but they have zero chemistry. Goldobin and Petterson had chemistry. Goldobin is not a good two way player though unfortunately. Fixed it two way player being key word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 3 minutes ago, CaptainLinden16 said: Boeser had more goals in less games and less ice time without Petterson. Pettersson is going to be a top 5 player in the league. That doesn't make any sense from a talent standpoint. You watch them play and Boeser isn't great when he doesn't have the puck. Pettersson is a phenom, so he is going to drive most if not all of the play on his line. You don't play with two pucks. Boeser didn't play well with the Sedin's either. Although theoretically a shooting winger and an all-world center are a perfect fit. In actuality Boeser doesn't play to his maximum potential with Pettersson. Boeser was recovering from a significant injury and you can't really gauge what he was/wasn't (fully) in consideration of that. Takes awhile to regain the confidence that you won't get slammed. There are goals where one guy knows where another's going to be/what he'll do - Petey and Brock are developing some of that. Helps when there's also a friendship there...you're connected. You may argue that Petey would/could've set up anything like this. I think this is a direct result of their chemistry...and I expect more of it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
