  1. At any rate the new fan motto should be “get the puck to Horvat”.
  2. Well if that’s the case then we now officially know why they didn’t sign Horvat this summer. It’s obvious that him and his camp have been holding out for big money right from day one.
  3. I know but that’s kind of what I’m saying. Why didn’t they? It has always seemed odd why they prioritize Miller. There’s something to that. I feel like most of us aren’t getting the full picture here.
  4. I would give my left nut to know what that recent offer was. Is management not willing to give him Miller’s contract number? Or have they offered him something in that range and he feels that he deserves more.
  5. Agreed. And that is why I’m kind of coming around to my thoughts on this past off-season. I mean we were all pretty caught off guard by the Miller signing right? The order of operations should’ve been our captains contract first and then figure out what to do with Miller afterwards. Is it possible that management has known all along that when all is said and done that Miller is the better player here? If they made that decision and went with it and signed him, that may be the plan all along. Get Bo at their number or Trade him in season which is where we are currently at.
  6. Also is it possible that Bo is the benefactor of being set up by others?
  7. Starting to feel like management may have placed the ceiling Horvat’s value in the off-season. Seems like they valued Miller more and acted accordingly. They’re concerned his current scoring run isn’t sustainable?
  8. CDC official whipping boy most nights. OEL a close second. Both playing hard matchup minutes all game. 20-25 min per.
  9. Ethan Bear looking good out there, Gott admit most of the new additions are looking like keepers.
  10. Bo Horvat is our captain. All this talk of him wanting out of Vancouver is completely ridiculous. There is no proof or credible source stating that this was ever in fact the case. Give him Miller’s contract with an adjustment on term. This sets the payroll scale for the team until Petey signs. Horvat isn’t going anywhere. This team is turning the corner. Boeser and Garland are gone and we build from there
  11. I don’t agree. He might be over paid by 1 million but just sitting there saying that he’s replaceable at a position that is of the highest premium in this league to me seems highly speculative. One more season and he’s off the books. His contract won’t be a problem in the long run.
  12. I don’t know why people make such a big deal about Myers contract. He’s a really good defender. Every time he’s out of the lineup it is very noticeable. You should know this. He’s a second pairing sometimes top pairing right handed defensemen. $6 million is easily market value for a player like this
  13. If Petey sustains this trajectory we will have a superstar leading this team then alll bets will be off. His evolution is happening this season before our eyes. He looks bigger. He is way faster. He’s getting stronger on his skates and most importantly he really looks like he belongs. He has swagger. He’s still filling out. Just wait till he reaches his man frame at around 190-195 lbs. He is going to dominate out there.
  14. This is what I said about OEL: OEL is highly underrated on these boards. Get over how he got here and his cap hit and think of how much worse we would be without him in the line up. He tough as nails. Great with the puck. Runs the 2nd PP and plays huge minutes. Get over it and shake your head. Yes he’s overpaid but not by much. He signed that contract in his prime. He earned it and is still a solid NHL defender.
  15. They won’t let Horvat go. They will get everyone signed. Cap will go up. Myers off the books end of next season. Probably an OEL buyout or cap dump somewhere down the line.
  16. How about that first of 2 one timers. I believe goal number four. What a laser beam of a shot
