As Canucks fan, I hope they sign him to a VEEERY long term contract because he is the perfect GM for a team in the center of the universe and GREAT JOB so far - 4 players costing almost 40 million of the cap. Too bad, he forgot about the cap. Edited December 6, 2019 by ShawnAntoski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They dont even have enough cap space to sign a decent backup...just imagine if Andersson gets injured lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Dog Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Would be something if we managed to snag someone like Nylander away from TO. Would look gnarly on the PP and with Petey. We don't really have the pieces for it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping the Leafs, will sign THIS TREND SETTING GM to a veeery long extension - Go Laffs !!!!!! Edited December 6, 2019 by ShawnAntoski 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The oilers might had preferred him over Chia and as a Canuck fan, that is another situation I was hoping to continue. After looking at the Leafs cap situation at Capfriendly, would make a video game GM blush.. Edited December 6, 2019 by ShawnAntoski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but we got a good balance of physical/two-way forwards that are strong on the puck. These type of guys give skilled players room. Also Petey might do really well with a skilled teammate. Never know really and the Canucks do need more dynamic skill to help them become a better team. Moot point though. We don't really have the pieces to give up for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toyotasfan Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 The latest Nathan Mackinnen statement where he said he would take another discount on his next contract if it meant helping the team win must really sting in Toronto. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Industrious1 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 In a parallel universe i'd be very interested to see how the their big contract situation would have worked out if Lou was still in charge. The optics on those deals look pretty bad on Dubas and the implication around the league with how he handed those dollars out will be felt on many franchises in the future. Whether that is a good thing or a bad thing (younger players getting paid earlier) has yet to be seen....give it a few more years and we will see how many more massively payed floaters are cruising around the perimeter trying to pot their 20-25 goals from the dot.

48MPHSlapShot Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Move the franchise. That'd fix all my problems with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does, then good on him but it would still be a huge cap hit. Hypothetically, I believe he knows that he is underpaid if you based it on the amount of his yearly avg (6.3 till 22-23) but the value of the contract is still 45 million. If he signed for a year or two less, then that contract would be more inline with the likes of Aho; although, somewhat underpaid for a player of his calibre. Perhaps he will sign a high value contract (like his current deal) with term to make the yearly cap hit manageable ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it really cost that much? 6.5 million worth of hole fillers. need : a backup goalie a rugged defensive winger a defensive defenceman as long as the cap hit is the same that would be the cost of Nylander.
