[GDT] ‘Tis the Dog Days of Summer, Are we Thinging Before Training Camp?
Timråfan replied to AngryElf's topic in Canucks Talk
Burroughs was too lightweight for being a fighter. He was not a sollution for the team. It’s better to do these kind of decision asap. -
You talked about 3 mill to the Oilers. Why change that? There is always a risk involved with a player that has been injured so much but I would trust our medics regarding that bit if he was signed. but for 6,75 mill hmm, it’s hard and it signals all in with him and Hughes for four years. with him we’re cup contenders instantly. We can have our AHL players filling up at the D and still win enough. With Hronek we go for more than four years since he and Petey together with Silovs, Lekkerimäki, Räty etc is going for 10 years.

The big picture is what attracts. Think of Hughes, Petey, Miller, Kuz, Mikh and Boeser and then add a monster as EK. Wich team can defend against that? The other team has to have two really good shutdown lines Then we have the fact that if we snag him, no one else will. Any one of the top teams or those like the Oilers with top players will be a contender with him. So take away him from other teams is well worth at least 8 mill and get rid of two wingers. Oh, and I have to add… Wich signals will it send to other teams, fans etc if we take EK instead of Dumba. Planning the parade maybe

Nope, it was the medias main selling point. PAs selling point was speed as a difference maker. Remember that for future discussions
-
I focus on the speed wich is the main thing with Mikh. If he only were good at PK PA wouldn’t have taken him but he still takes him for the speed as a difference maker offensively.
-
Was that PA or some journo talking? I don’t see the Allvin quote there. What JR said earlier was that they had get quicker. If that forward also does PK the PK bit is the bonus. But can you find a quote from either JR or PA that they got Mikh because of PK I surrender.

[Buyout] Oliver Ekman-Larsson

If I do the math OEL and Myers is over 13 mill so we can change them to Karlsson and a 1,5 mill LHD enforcer and it’s cheaper. Hughes Karlsson Hirose. Hronek Whatever Whatever We can actually have our forwards as D when Hughes and Karlsson circle around -
If PA manages to get Carlsson Örebro will have a lot of interest from Canucks fans. Carlsson, Lekkerimäki and Petey Jr playing together.
-
Nope, it was his speed first and foremost. Only PK can cannon fodder do perfectly well but we lacked speed in top 6.

[Signing] Blues re-sign Adam Gaudette

I would say it is about being in a society or stay outside. Similar to libertarians. They haven’t got a clue what to do. -

The problem with that rule is that the person using it has to be very intelligent. Or else it’s a dumb person doing things he believes others do unto you. Misunderstandings happens a lot, just watch this forum… -
Can Tyler Myers still become a good defenceman?
Timråfan replied to brokensticks's topic in Canucks Talk
And I can’t forget that Stecher was the one coming out on top in the playoffs while being under attack all the time. 9+ while Petey and Miller were 2 and 3 +. The eyes fool many it seems. -
Jim Bennings legacy without the OEL trade. Grade him out of 10.

Was Gradin scout before Sedin got drafted? -
[Buyout] Oliver Ekman-Larsson

They have sn influence but to say they ”forced” Benning is wrong. They said what they believed in and then Benning has to decide, not the Sedins. Benning sure sound like a very weak GM that never once was the person that decided anything.
