    Apparently Gaudette's sitting in Chicago too until he's recovered.

     

    Players using inhalers post covid.  This is an ugly virus that is serious, even to young fit athletes.

    This is so ridiculous to even think they should play Friday... or Saturday. Forfeit these games and get a few days to try to get in shape.

    If Bettman the A-hole will not extend the season for them or take their average winning% for the standings at the end of the season, he has seriously hurt the NHL brand by purposely putting players in danger on Friday.

    Absolute BS and would like to know if Toronto would be treated the same way.

    [Trade] Canucks trade Adam Gaudette to Blackhawks for Matthew Highmore

    in Trades, Rumours, Signings

    Highmore looks like a better fit for Bottom 6 role then Gauds, but still dreamed Gauds had potential as a top 6 wingers.

    Dreamer , nothing but a dreamer obviously

     

    really just a meh for meh trade to save some cap money with expansion coming up which they'll need this summer.

     

    Good time to remember the Vanek for Motte trade where everyone called out JB for bringing in a Meh player..... time will tell

    [Signing] Canucks re-sign Tanner Pearson

    in Trades, Rumours, Signings

    Posted

    JB's not robbing the bank with this signing, but its market value for a guy that was top 4 in scoring for our forward group last year

    Pearson brings a solid 200' game, is counted on in the final minutes, up against other teams top lines and has gelled with Horvat in a top 6 role.

    We constantly complain about depth in our middle six. Here's a piece for that puzzle that I think we take for granted TBH

     

    He brings way more value than just points

    Points percentage assumes Montreal is able to keep winning at the pace they had been which will be a tall ask with how many games they need to play in a narrowing window of time. Especially without the services of Armia and Kotkaniemi.

     

    Although I wouldn’t put it past the league to throw out competitive fairness and let armia and Kotkaniemi return to the lineup sooner after this delay than making them sit out as long as Benn and JT had to when the Canucks had to play games without them immediately. 

    If Montreal maintains 500 hockey we will have to go 14-5 or they crap the bed and go 10-15, we need to go 12-7 and then we still have Calgary to worry about

     

    its possible but the odds are going to be tough to get r done man

     

    [Proposal] Buffalo Blockbuster

    I would keep Hughes.

    We know what we have in Hughes. a phenomenal offensive Dman that could likely sit in the top 5 scoring Dmen over the next 10 years. 

    He's a smart player and will continue to improve his Defensive game over the years. 

    Dahlin has declined each year offensively and this year could due to the nightmare environment Buffalo players are under,  but he could also turn into a Tyler Myers type player and be a good D man but not Norris material.

    Because the jury's out still on Dahlin, Hughes is more of a guaranty and proven product therefore why take the risk when Hughes could be winning Norris trophies for Buffalo

     

    also Gauds added make this a pass IMO
