  1. but why do I have a sinking feeling it is going to be garland for debrusk basically, which I do not like, I have just seen too many bad trades from the Canucks over the years
  2. another fat weekes tweet with the bottom his face cut off, lol, he is annoying, I am not surprised he has not been hired by a team for front office position
  3. that sounds like a very JR kind of trade, I think deb rusk has potential to be a really nice pick up, but JR keeps saying he wants cap flexibility...this does not really give us that unless he goes and moves boeser
  4. this is probably a sign and trade, supposedly he is fast and he has a 27 goal season before, this is a buy low player, he has been asking for a change of scenery for 2-3 yrs, I imagine he will give it a pretty good try when he goes to a new team.
  5. agree, he would be good for their young kids- by field, Turcotte, vilardi, fuegamo, kupari, lol, they have too many good young players and they have done a ton with a roster pegged to be bottom 10 this year
  6. my guess is it is for picks, cap room and a young B+ player/prospect like a 2nd, 3rd, and a teams 4th best prospect, giving us 3.5-5 mill in cap space
  7. Tanner is slow, he does play in our top 6, he does not PK, he is ok net front presence, his contract is 1 mill-0.5mill too high, he has won a cup, from all reports he is a good character guy, he is playing well with Miller... I am interested to see what we could get for him, I am thinking a 3rd, with no retention. JR talks on and on and on about cap flexibility, my guess is we see some contracts like toffoli in the summer, covid contracts where guys get underpaid and teams like Vegas and tb might have to move players out again because of the cap.. Vegas for sure will be over the cap this summer, 650 guys keep mentioning Theadore will be available, yes please
  8. Motte wants a lot of money lol I bet, JR is no dummy, Motte gets you more now, this is the definition of selling high, the guy is a 4th liner, he is a good one but still a 4th liner, like he is not Calgary 3rd line good, or TB third line good
  9. Totally... Also, Jimmy R is probably the most experienced POHO in the world, if he wants to move a player, he should, he has actually done all the right things so far... he hired great staff that we are all excited about, he was very patient with the team and watched and waited, his interviews and narratives he gives us through the media are spot on " being a cap team outside the playoffs, a goaltender who covers top a lot of our mistakes, lack speed etc..." all on the money wants cap flexibility - something we never ever had with JB go for it
  10. 1. I was very surprised PA/JR found a taker for Hamonic and his useless 3mill cap hit - so, very nicely done team, good move. 2. Getting Dermott cuts that cap gain in half, so I am guessing their pro scouting group sees something they really like in him 3. There is a bit of a narrative coming out of this trade and that is that Dermott clearly needed a change of scenery and ppl think he has more to give. 4. I would have thought having 3 Mill in cap would have been of more value than 1.5mill in cap + Dermott, so I am excited to try and find out what PA/JR see in him, PA and Clancey would have seen a lot of this kid, so maybe they know what they are doing. 5. The problem with out LD corps is that now that OEL is hurt, there is no one who can really pick up those minutes. Hughes is already playing max minutes and hunt is already playing to his max too. Maybe Dermott can eat up a few more minutes than hunt...
  11. who would have thought that if we decided to trade brock that we would struggle to get a good asset(s) back...
  12. I don't see how NYR think there is such a difference btw Lunkvist and Schneider that they would not move him lol miller is ready to win a cup
  13. keep Schenn please, we need guys like him who have won the cup
  14. trade him already !!!!! lol, but guys, Appleton went for a 4th, deslauriers for a 3rd, I'm doubtful we get a 2nd, these guys just not are valued as much as we think they are
  15. lol, why is weekes doing this from a hotel closet? pretty unprofessional, plus in all the video tweets announcing trades he cuts off the bottom of his face and shows way too much of the space above his head lol, also, he has put on a ton of weight since his playing days lol
  16. I have a feeling JR/PA gonna play hard ball give Brock their best offer in the summer and tell him if he doesn't like it they will off load him to BUF and they have a trade in place, just like when Gillis hamstrung burrows into signing a 2mill/yr 4 year offer
  17. I am surprised Ottawa wants him with their money issues, I was surprised anyone wants him with that cap hit
