  1. Maybe they'd want to clear the next 2 yrs of Murphy's deal since he's 30 and won't fit into their rebuild ? (Myers wouldn't either, but he'd only be on their books for 1 yr). Myers (1 year / $6M hit / $1M cash) for Murphy (3 yrs / $4M hit) If they Hawks retained 25% for us taking on 2 more years of Murphy, then we'd clear $3M off this season's cap and have Murphy at $3M hit for two more years.
  2. Pearson will be back. Always thought of him as a good bottom 6 guy.
  3. Doubt it would happen, but I'd be pretty happy with these pairs (one for offence & one for physicality in each): Hughes - Myers Soucy - Hronek Hirose - Tryamkin
  4. Serious question.... can NHL trades still include cash ? Cause if so then trade Myers + $5M cash to a team that only wants to pay $1M and doesn't mind the $6M cap hit
  5. I like the Hronek trade as well. Would have loved it if it had included a 3rd instead of our 2nd.
  6. OEL buyout hit is too long and too high. He will stick around next year and (hopefully) be healthy this time around and bounce back. His buyout can be revisited in a couple years. Myers cap hit needs to go... a cap floor team will be interested after his bonus is paid, it's just getting him to waive. At least one (two if Pearson comes off LTIR) wingers with cap hits over $3M need to be moved and replaced with Hogs, Kravstov, Karlsson, etc priced guys. Won't be Kuzmenko and likely not Boeser, so one of Garland/Beauv/Mikheyev, Poolman ? if not on LTIR I'm guessing is either waived or bought-out
  7. OEL for sure, but then Martin. I'm not down on him, but i had high hopes that this would've been Podz's breakout year.
  8. Yzerman obviously decided to become a seller after losing twice to the Sens. I look at this as opportunistic as it's probably just the first of a number of Wing moves coming now. Hronek hits a lot of the right buttons for us as others have pointed out.... and RHD are harder to come by let alone one in our wheelhouse.
  9. Language barrier can be huge. Pods and Tryamkin both really struggled at first to understand what the coaches wanted and fit in with the team.
  10. Eklund site (i know) saying Boeser deal is coming with Buffalo as the favourite. Lyubushin or Jokiharju could work with Quinn
  11. That last line is a real shame since the bolded part probably represents the best situation him and his wife could find in the NHL. Gonchar especially.
  12. Not an official one. My hockey buddy runs the service bay at the car dealership Tim uses, and that's what Tim told him the when he was there a couple weeks ago.
  13. And Bo would be interested in Detroit, since his home is by my town which is about an hour away. Every Canuck game in Detroit he has a whole section of family and friends come to see him. It's also where his dad thinks he'll end up (Det or Bos he said)
  14. Petey needs a winger that can play at his elite level. You're not just finding that in a draft pick or a prospect someone is willing to trade away. I'd get rid of every winger over $3M before trading Kuz unless he won't take a bridge deal.
  15. My brother's taking his son to the game and started the trash talk with me here in Ontario already. Is it wrong to call your 7 yr old nephew a Krak-head ?
  16. I'm in too. What's 1% more chance of getting 1st overall when Canuck-luck says we'll be dropping anyway.
  17. I still say that ANY Horvat deal MUST get back a potential partner for Hughes. No other return other that the 1st overall pick will change the team's trajectory moving fwd.
