(Trade) Lucic + Conditional 3rd to Calgary for Neal
hlinkas wrister replied to Pears's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I feel like flame fans would have loved to have had Lucic in the playoffs last year. Too bad they are about to find out that he's a luxury that few can afford in the regular season. -
(Newer than the newest) 2019-2020 Time Capsule Prediction Thread
hlinkas wrister replied to Canorth's topic in Canucks Talk
I always get this wrong so lets try a little reverse prognostication- The Canucks will finish dead last this year. -
[Signing] Canucks sign Micheal Ferland
hlinkas wrister replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Jacob's numbers are very similar for the last two seasons, I don't see his play last year being the outlier that many on here claim it was. -
I could live with Sabotage

There's no guarantees, that's why they play the games. We could just as easily regress this year, and with league parity so could 3 or 4 teams that people think are locks for the post season right now. If Pettersson and other core players stay healthy, Markstrom continues to flourish under Clark and this years acquisitions bring similar historical production to the group then I think it's safe to say that the team will be in the hunt for a playoff spot come spring. I don't think anyone is guaranteeing more than that.

Dzingel will get somewhere around twice that amount

Are You Okay If The Canucks Offer Sheet Over 11 mil?
hlinkas wrister replied to ItTakesAnArmy's topic in Canucks Talk
Is any player really worth not having a first round pick for 4 years? Craziness -
Brendan Gaunce? You think Benning could have got something for the guy who went 94 straight games without scoring and cleared waivers without being claimed? That's a laugh.

[Signing] Tyler Myers to Vancouver
hlinkas wrister replied to Rush17's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I wouldn't mind Myers here but he's no more than a second pairing D-man at best. 6M x 5 is the max I would pay (and term) or I would walk away from the deal. -
[Buyout] Canucks buy out Ryan Spooner
hlinkas wrister replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I don't understand this. Can you give me one example of a contract that JB signed somebody to that he then had to buy the player out from it? -
[Report] Ben Hutton to become UFA
hlinkas wrister replied to BertaNuck's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
If Hutton was going to be pushed down to the third pairing anyways, then we'd be better off saying goodbye and going with Sautner at a third of the cost. -
Too late, he already retired.

Depends how much ice he gets as an 18 year old in the KHL. The first benchmark that really interests me will be his upcoming performance in the next WJC.

I live in Edmonton and his name comes up once in a while on Jason Gregor's show on tsn. Pretty high praise for such a young kid.

[Speculation] Lucic says he would like to play here
hlinkas wrister replied to Provost's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Woo probably won't be but wouldn't Hughes have to be protected? He will have played 2 full seasons when the draft is held. -
[Speculation] Lucic says he would like to play here
hlinkas wrister replied to Provost's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
If this deal comes at the cost of losing a good young player in the expansion draft because we have to protect Milan, then the price is too high. If we want to get out from under Loui, then buy him out. If we feel the need to sign a tough guy then go sign one for cheap, they are a dime a dozen these days. -
Love him or hate him, as primarily a Canuck-focused media personality he was (in a way) one of us. Condolences to his family

Louie Eriksson and Jake Virtanen and Jim Benning
hlinkas wrister replied to CaptainLinden16's topic in Canucks Talk
Like it or not, Benning gets credit for draft successes (and failures) by virtue of hiring Brackett and assembling the amateur staff. However, I fully agree that even you could have mismanaged the team into lottery contention and nobody would call you a genius
