In hindsight. All this team needed was Bruce here in August 2021. Im sure we would be into that 100 pt mark. I was hoping we might take a run at Zadorov when rumours appeared out of Chicago of him being moved. I don’t think the KHL in RuZ will operate next year,. Just a hunch,. But those oligarchs who own, are going to lose the ability to pay players with sanctions in place that will effect RuZ for the next 5-10 years. Id love to hear that conversations with Tryamkin take place over the Summer,. We have him until June.… and yes, his contract can be mutually terminated in the KHL. I say we talk to E Kane as well,. A 3yr moveable contract between the 3.5 -4.5m figure , might bring him home to Vancouver. All issues aside, which is how he consistently plays,. This room cancer talk is myth.. and more a talk for fans. funny how it was Hertyl complaining about Kane in San Jose,. It was Kane out performing him consistently,. Hertyl needed cap space to get his 8.2m x 8yr contract, which he signed once SJ wrongfully terminated Kanes contract. More news to come on the outcome of this can of worms the league created by allowing all that to happen. 2 positions, player type changes.. 1 more physical / good skating D man, and a proven , still productive physical power forward. Add them to this core of contending youth.. and you’ve got a great recipe for an even better season.

Congratulations Luke.. the nomination itself speaks volumes, know that your work is appreciated here, and I for one look forward to more. -

I’m looking forward to the Summer, BC is beautiful… always nice to get out of traffic in the lower mainland,. It can be a totally different world.

It’s the season, just curious.. sometimes a great way to visit and argue about hockey over a good Bean.. Perhaps a better way to share travels, and maintenance tips. Dont be too shy to post a pic of your kicks too! Kind Regards. 06 FLHXI (street glide) (The hard tail is in storage, a semi-retirement project)

[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
SilentSam replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
13th since Bruce took over. so if we had him from the start of the 21-22 season, an argument could be created that if that curve continued from that point (the beginning) we could possibly / fairly assume an 8th or 9th position overall … this is just hypothetical. Nothing wrong with that.. something solid to improve on with the leadership core and young guys rising. -
[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
SilentSam replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I think your with me,. a couple of key players added in 2 positions. D and a power forward, and this team will have fans buying new hats after every second home game -
[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
SilentSam replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I wonder, For giggles, what point placement would this team be at if we had the same winning percentage before the Christmas changes , that we have enjoyed after it? I noticed 11 OT losses too, that’s a tough one. -
[Signing] Oilers sign Evander Kane
SilentSam replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
That’s in 39 games played this season . His points totals have been high end for the last 7 seasons,. Issues included. the hi lighted part is the season he was traded. It’s a single season 54 pts. He brings a great element to any team, physical and to the net. Personal issues aside, where they should be.. id have him here. If we got him about 3-4m x3 yrs , moveable, beats what game we’re getting out of Brock.… and I doubt Brock signs for less than 5m. just my thoughts. -
[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
SilentSam replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Who knows Alf? But I don’t think Hertyl is going to get much better on that TEAM. Thats the difference here for Miller, he will have longetivity with the core group he plays with here.. this Summer will be interesting,. if we can’t come to terms with him , we move him for ? .. it could be a defining move, one that makes us better, or worse off in 4 years.… it’s back to wishing and hoping in a new direction. If he stays, look for some one else of reasonable value to move with others to make us stronger in 2 spots. -
[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
SilentSam replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
We should consider ourselves lucky if we sign him to something that works for him and the Club. Could you imagine the points / stats he would have this season had we started the season with Boudreau? I think the best is yet to come with Miller, but his identity as a leader by example in all elements of his play is worth a 1/3 or more of the contract he will sign. A full season with Bruce, one uneffected by Covid, and it’s protocols could potentially bring out the best of him next season. He has acknowledged that Vancouver is the place that gave him this opportunity to prove himself to be who he is.. I hope he continues to wear his heart on his sleeve here. Anything in a trade will not replace the type of leadership all of our younger players are following with him. Their games are rising with his type of attitude, one that is hard to find,. Because other teams value, and hold on to it. Miller has grown here,. Thinking that bringing in a seasoned vet, with leadership qualities and years of NHL experience, can not, will not, replace the symbiotic process developing with his team mates here. He has established himself here, nowhere else.. and I think that will be acknowledged by him. Personally I think he signs something similar to T Hertyls new contract with the Sharks 8m - 8.5 x 8 .. and moveable after 3-4years, as is Hertyls contract. I realize Miller has drastically outperformed Hertyl , And he probably will with this TEAM.… but I think Miller understands the concept of TEAM, and what it has done for him on this city. It’s hockey folks, anything can happen, including the exact opposite of my thoughts. lol. So ask yourself this, would you want Tomas Hertyl here with that contract, or JT Miller? .. because that’s close to the latest standard. -

100% Jack.. I think there’s good chemistry here between Bruce and his team.. see if they give him a seat at the “round table” over the Summer. im sure his input is highly valued at every level. Sweeeeet tied! -

Demko needs to do a few head snaps and draw the penalties,. Then they’ll stay away, it’s the only way he’s going to get an interference call. -
