  2. https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/ex-canucks-coach-travis-green-back-in-nhl Green hasn’t coached in the NHL since December 4, 2021, when the Canucks lost on home ice, 4-1 to the Pittsburgh Penguins. He, along with Jim Benning, John Weisbrod, and Nolan Baumgartner, was fired the next day. While Green wasn’t an NHL coach last year, he did get paid like one. The Canucks reportedly paid him $2.75 million, given it was the last year of his guaranteed contract.
  3. The Melnyk family still owns 10% of the franchise That $950M bought 90% which makes the value over $1B and still a new venue to be built A condition of the sale would be that it stays in Ottawa, the franchise announced when putting up the for sale sign. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/ottawa-senators-sale-price-owner-michael-andlauer-1.6849098

  10. https://www.theplayerstribune.com/articles/john-gibson-anaheim-ducks-elite-101-goal-scorers/amp Elias Pettersson This guy was born to score goals. I think, at least now, the playbook is out there on him. Everyone knows about his spot and his incredible shot. Everyone knows that he plays a lot bigger than he looks, too. He’s just one of those players that feeds off the fact that you know how to play against him. It’s one of those he knows that you know that he knows that you know situations — you know? But I think he’s got a little secret in his shot that keeps goalies guessing when he sits right on the edge of the circle on the power play. Here’s a goal he scored against me earlier this year. Sometimes you’ll see him miss wide on these when he’s really trying to pick the near post. Or sometimes you’ll see him miss high when he’s trying to do what he did here. He knows that the space right to the side of my mask, just above my collarbone, is really hard to defend. If he goes further over with the shot, it’s actually easier to get my left elbow higher and cover more space. But that little gap beside my head, I can’t get my arm into that space. Try it right now. Raise your elbow up and see how there’s this little triangle between the top of your head, your elbow and the base of your neck. He’s shooting for that. And you know what? When he hits it, all you can do is tip your cap and move on. There’s no stopping it. He’s a pretty special player. Lots of guys have come into the league and made a spot like that their own. My mind goes to Ovi or Stamkos, and they’ve created their own little tricks to make sure a team can’t just cheat and mark them. Pettersson does the same thing. From the way he can cycle the puck down low with his strength, to his huge shot, he’s got a lot of tools. He’s fun to watch because he loves to challenge guys. It’s your best against his best. It’s just that, usually his best is better.
  11. If you are going to trade that 1st, It better have OEL tied to it!
  12. They could/would/should move it in a package with OEL at the draft Cap $$$$ It's a Re-tool not a Re-build
  13. It doesn't matter about the 1st round draft pick They are going to trade it anyways, Unless its a lottery pick It's a Re-Tool not a Re-Build
  14. Petey and Hughes werent going to buy into a full on re-build Young RH top 4 dman to play with Huggy is what the team needs Draft picks take 3-4 more years, Petey and Huggy will be 28 by then and playing on another team
