  1. Why would Ottawa take that? That’s a horrible package for a 21 year old stud. Take out Pearson and throw in Podz or you are getting hung up on.
  2. I’d over pay for him. I’d easily give that package you are saying. We would have to trade Miller for a 1st somewhere. (Spot and cap) Makes the trade look more like Miller, Podz, Rathbone for Tkachuk This may sound crazy, but I think I’d do it. We still have a first. Good chance we have to trade Miller when his deal is up anyway. I really like Rathbone, but we already have a small puck moving dman. That big dumb jerk of a kid would look absolutely amazing beside Petey for our future.
  3. No, we did. He can’t handle more than 45 games. But it’s fine. We ruined him for Calgary
  4. People are giving the agents too much credit. Who pays the agent? Who signs the actual contract at the end of the day? Who is working for who? Petey and Quinn hold all the cards. They could have signed a long time ago if they wanted. They are driving the boat, and they are the ones holding out for more money. They are also unproven and haven’t actually earned the numbers they are asking for/will get.
  5. That Calgary lineup sucks and is nothing but bad new for the Canucks. If we win, who cares, if we lose…. We lost to the most garbage lineup ever.
  6. Lol. Overdramatic much? Their careers will be just fine. Hahah You realize they are the ones in charge of this and could put an end to it in a second if they wanted to?
  7. If we want to use them as comparable, the deal should have been done at 7mill a year
  8. We have around 17 mill for those two. That should be more than enough. They are both fairly unproven and haven’t earned anything close to what they are asking for. Benning didn’t screw up anything. EP and QH and their agent are getting greedy
  9. Sportsnet now app. I get it every year for the season and cancel when it’s over.
  10. Teammates are busting ass at training camp, these shlubs are at a football game. Not a great look fellas
  11. The last two years were shortened season. OEL is still a 40+ point dman, and yeah he is better defensively than Hughes. Jake Virtanen is better defensively than Hughes. Hahah
  12. Miller maybe, but that’s just because he will be the oldest of the bunch. Lou penalty, Expiring Myers will be let go, Pearson only has a few to go, Ferland contract coming off. You don’t just lose parts of your young core. You sell off/expire the old folks and replace them with your young kids. Each year we gain more cap space. Horvat at 7 is only 2 mill more. Boeser at 8 is only a little over 2 more. The Lou penalty covers more than one of those raises. We’ll be fine
  13. Am i missing something, or do a handful of you guys have no idea who Phil Kessel is? The guy NEVER missed a game, fans and teammates love him, and he has produced MIN 20 goals a year. other than a couple years ago, he has had fantastic stats each year as well. We would be lucky to have someone as consistent as him each year. Mac + a 2nd for 50% retained Kessel? What a stupid offer. Would you take that for Bo? Because Phil outscores Bo hands down pretty much every single year
  14. Why? The guy is a teammate favourite, plays every single game, and still produces. He is payed too much, but that’s about all you can say about Phil
  15. Did the refs really? Lol. Yeah. They did. And it was super obvious. was he a Boy Scout? Hell no. Quite the opposite, which is what I really liked about his play. But to say even half those penalties he got were legit is just silly.
  16. Bubble Myers was awesome. The refs got a total hard on for him and penalized him for being bigger and stronger. Him smashing people had a lot to do with our bubble success. If you didn’t like bubble Myers, go watch soccer.
  17. If you can’t put real thought into it, you dont NEED to make the thread. Lol. This will be locked, as there have been 18 of the exact thing (I think you made at least one of those already). Having said all that, you did a solid job this summer with the polls. Great work!
  18. I’m not convinced the league is really changing. At least it’s not changing towards smaller dmen. Just people who can move the puck are more valued these days. Look at the Stanley Cup finals and tell me how many 5’9”-5’10” dmen there were. (Here’s a hint…. It’s zero). Hahaha. Your added point is funny. Guess what. I was a big defensemen too. I didn’t make it either. Doesn’t mean a thing. Most people don’t make it……
