  1. Awwww. Don’t like getting called out on your homer nonsense? My reading comprehension was fine. You going off like Petar Pan in Neverland is another story. I never mentioned 5-6 (even though that is a fair number considering Quinn is a one trick pony) Quinn WAS a comparable to Makar a couple years ago. He has always been a bit behind him, now it’s not even close. Only a couple of rose coloured glasses kinda people such as yourself think he is.
  2. Let’s not count our chickens before they hatch. Let him hit 60-70 before calling him a 60-70 point dman. Pardon? Come on man. Be real. Sure Quinn is great, but absolutely not even on the same level at all. Last year Makar took two huge steps ahead in both ends of the ice. He is a legit Norris caliber dman. Quinn, while putting up his points, didn’t take any stepup with his defensive game. Im sorry but they aren’t even close to a comparable anymore. 6-7 is a far cry from Makar and his 9+ You actually believe Hughes is worth over 9? Colorado fans and people around the league believe Makar took a discount on his huge deal. He left money on the table. Is Hughes worth almost 10? People need to give their heads a shake? You said Quinn is worth 6-7 and will get better defensively later in 3-4 years, then say he is the same as the 10 mill Norris candidate. Get shaking buddy
  3. Cool video. I love how the kid goes to the net. Half of that video he was making moves in the tough areas of the ice with daily little issue. That’s a tough kid right there.
  4. Sounds a little too much like an oilers fan too me. All of those things are great for us. Their garbage D got worse. Their garbage goaltending didn’t get any better. Their big dogs get a year older while having no real chance at competing. Whats not to like? Suck it Edmonton Go Canucks Go
  5. Canucks injuries will help us bank at least enough cash to pay for Halak’s bonuses. No need to run Demko into the ground to save 500k
  6. Good enough! I was hoping for a real upgrade on our Dline, especially after losing Schmidt. But I’m jazzed to have Hamonic back.
  7. Wow. great signing. Colorado players seem to be on the same page as a far as leaving cash on the table to benefit the team. Mack, Makar, now Landy. They are just going to keep getting better.
  8. Miller-Petey-Boeser Hogz-Bo-Garland Pearson-Dickinson-Podz Motte-UFA-Lockwood Mac Hughes-UFA OEL-Myers Rathbone-Schenn Joulevi Demko UFA For open spots, I’d like to see Benning make a move for Zadorov. Big mean Russian. Hit like a truck and does it often. Lots of options for 4th line center and backup goalie.
  9. Chicago getting a lot better this off-season while not sacrificing a whole lot. (Last two trades) Great deal for Tampa. Their cap problems at damn near fine now. Hedman will possibly be gone for the first bit of the season with hip surgery, giving TB an easy road to getting Seabrook on LTIR Tampa for the 3pete
  10. Schenn is the only dman we are currently linked to. That’s what I’m referring to. Im sure Jim has something planned, but I just don’t see many UFAs that are around Nate’s talent. Hopefully we can get 1-2 good free agents to fill in the right side tomorrow
  11. I kinda liked him. He was easily one of our best dmen all year, even though he had an off year. We are pretty well out of good tradable assets, so Jim is really banking of free agency to rebuild that defensive line up
  12. Apparently around 26 mill without contracts for Petey, Hughes, Dickinson, 2 right side , backup goalie, etc….
  13. I’d rather have Schmidt than a 3rd. our defence took a big step forward, now a big step back. Schenn is no upgrade.
  14. I dunno. A lot of people here acting like they know exactly what kinda player he is. I bet all you guys spent all season watching all the Coyotes games last season and know 100% this kid is worth a 5 x 5 contract. I personally didn’t watch a single Arizona game last year, because why the hell would I? I watched a lot of Chicago and Tampa games, but I’m not going to pretend I remember this kid from two years ago. Im fine with Benning overall, but let’s not act like every big swing he takes is a home run.
  15. Yup. I never said he wasn’t worth what he got. I personally don’t know if he is or not. I saw a couple things saying he might come in around 4.25.
  16. That’s a million more than I thought he would get. Better be good!
  17. Yeah. Holtby. We can keep Schmidt and still be fine. Regarless, no reason to play Woo when he isn’t ready, especially over Rathbone who proved that he was.
  18. This d line up is pretty bunk. Spend all that money trying to upgrade the team then go ahead and put Woo in the top 4. Lol. He needs at least another year in the AHL. Also, where is Rathbone? He proved more than OJ last year.
