  1. I’m a huge ghost fan. He has a really quick release with his slap shot. to phi: gaudette, Lind, 2nd round pick 2020 to Van: ghost having ghost and hughes would give us a legit puck mover on 2/3 of the D pairs
  2. Buf isn’t a big market that can spend to the cap every year like CHI, TB, TOR, VAN or NYR so in terms of an “internal cap” this is a good junk of change eichel at 10m + skinner at 9m = 19m for the next 8 years + whatever dahlin gets buf is gonna regret it
  3. My god...skinner is a 9 MILLION dollar winger?! Sure hes scored a couple goals but he faded away when buffalo needed him down the stretch and he’s had a concussion history Kucherov is getting 9.5m (state tax is a factor) and he’s a dominant 100+ point player couture is at 8m and he’s been clutch in the ploffs Kane is at 10.5m and he’s a first ballot hall of famer, scoring titles and all the hardware. That’s only worth 1.5m than skinner at 9m?
  4. Panarin isn’t coming to Canada. Let alone the west coast. Rangers or Florida are the teams to beat But if he was legitimately interested id offer a 7 year/70m deal and get’er done Panarin-pettersson-boeser instantly one of the best lines in the game
  5. I like zucker but I’m not trading virtanen for him zucker is a guy you can find in free Agency if I’m dealing virtanen it’s for an upgrade on D
  6. Why is everyone cryin over zaitsev? He’ll come with a sweetener. possibly kapanen The cost will be little, every other free agent is older and will cost more and possibly longer term we need to shake it up, benning is doing that
  7. Boeser kapanen virtanen thats a solid RW in the top 9
  8. Ya I’m hoping for broberg. Just seems to have more hype around him. Toronto cant afford kapanen around 4m. Of course they might match, but they’ll have their arms tied up in marner so it might expose kappy
  9. I do agree with the sentiment, our D is not 1 player away from getting much better. It needs an overhaul and we don’t have the assets to replenish that right now. The only way it’s truly gonna get better is drafting more D and be patient What we need is a dumba, ekblad, parayko or to a lesser extent risto and those guys are simply not being shopped for cheap now finding scoring is a little more readily available im on the Kapanen “hope train” I think he’d fit really nicely behind boeser on RW to play with horvat 5years/4.2m offer sheet? Compensation a 2nd rounder? I’d pull the trigger on that
  10. Has anyone changed their mind? Scratch the 7x7 scenario 8m-8.5m x 7 years? Duchene has played wing in the past and would really insulate petey and horvat down the middle
  11. I’ve wondered the sutter for Russell swap myself id do it. We’re thin on the blueline as it is
  12. Target vrana speed and skill fits fits our age bracket vrana-pettersson-boeser thats a dynamic line
  13. To van: 8th overall, lucic, Russell, manning to edm: goldobin, sutter, granlund edm moves out 12m in salary and acquires some depth on cheaper deals
  14. I wish! But nah it just shows how volatile their current situations have gotten and looking for anyway outta there
  15. Correct. Damn capfriendly added his 10 points in the playoffs to his totals and I didn’t catch it
  16. Benn is one of my favourite players so My judgement might be a little foggy i see this is a cap dump thing for dallas. They’re gonna be in on karlsson, there’s permanent bad blood and they might wanna turn the page on the benn regime noooooo way would I deal horvat. Not even in a one for one Hanzal has been a disaster for Dallas and has 1 year left on his deal at 4.75m so if we could take that off their hands it would water down the asking price To dal: gaudette, goldobin, hutton, 1st pick 2020 (top 10 protected) to van: benn, hanzal benn has a 9.5m cap hit for 6 more years and is coming off a 63 point year. His value is not that high and if it is then I’m out on acquiring him
  17. Broberg broberg broberg They say, if you say his name 3 times your wish will come true and the Canucks will select him at 10
  18. More than anything I wanted some turnover this offseason and cut the dead weight so far pouilot and gaunce have bit the dust I wonder about leivo. Good 15 goal/30 point guy, but does a 30 point guy belong in your top 6? Not for a team eyeing the playoffs next year
