[Signing] Lightning re-sign Brayden Point
N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
If true, that's a pretty good deal for the Lightning and for Point. -
doesn't sound promising for Goldobin. I don't think he's going to make the team out of training camp. Maybe he's gotten better, but so has the team overall. He just hasn't had much gains, not ones that would outweigh the rest of the team. It's too bad. One of those examples, of having a ton of talent and skill, but just not being able to put it together. I think Goldobin will have an NHL career in one fashion or another, it just won't be with the Canucks.

Could've fooled me! lol. I haven't been keeping up with Canuck news this week, been super busy at work. How is Jake doing? Did he play tonight?

i don't agree that even if Eriksson finds a way, I feel like he'd still be relegated to the fourth line. Virtanen is younger, and needs to blossom this season. Eriksson is an aging veteran, who is useful, but he is what he is at this point of his career. Jake's still got upside at 23 years old, and he needs at least a middle six role to somewhat flourish offensively. He's not going anywhere with fourth line minutes. And what value would he have at that point. Motte I can see rotating in and out of the line up. Goldobin doing that? I can't see it. I think he eventually gets frustrated, and then demands out of the team. Soooo, Goldy either makes it to the team, and becomes an impact player on the team in an offensive role (top nine), or he's on waivers on his way to another team. NJ probably claims him

[Rumor] Boeser Camp Eyeing 4 Year Deal Worth $28M
N4ZZY replied to buddyguy's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Please no. We need Brock. Good chemistry with EP, and he's a goal scorer. If there's one area that the Canucks struggled in recently, it's putting pucks in the net. Boeser helps with that tremendously. I think Benning and Co does eventually get Brock signed before the season begins. I also think that Boeser is hating missing training camp as well. If he's not signed by the time regular season begins, he's going to be behind the eight ball, and might be injured at some point just trying to catch up. -
[Speculation] Canucks all in for Jason Zucker
N4ZZY replied to CRAZY_4_NAZZY's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I really believe that this season could very well be his breakout season. Could he breach 40 points this year? It's very possible as long as he doesn't have Sutter as his centreman i'm hoping that JV breaks out and scores 20 plus goals. prove those naysayers wrong, Jake! -
The 2020 Draft is supposed to be one of the deepest in years.
-
What about Ferland? I think, if he remains healthy, gets 40-45 points this year.
-
Please, it's Miyers.

I think it really does depend on the rest of the team, and how quickly Hughes gets onto the 1st unit powerplay. If he gets any reasonable powerplay time, I think he can hit 35 points quite easily, especially if he has Pettersson and Boeser scoring goals, and maybe either Horvat, Miller, or Ferland cleaning up garbage in front of the net. It wouldn't surprise me if he gets to 40 points even. I'd be pretty happy with that for his rookie season. For Hughes to win the Calder, he'd have to have an outstanding rookie year - I think he'd need 50-55 points as a defenseman to win the Calder - and I just don't see him doing that. I see Kakko or J. Hughes winning the Calder. Would've been nice to have back to back Calder winning rookies on our team.

77 points seems a little low for EP. I think he can get 80 points this upcoming season! 77 might be a safe projection. My projections: EP - 80 points Boeser - 66-70 points Horvat - 65 Miller - 60 Ferland - 50

[Report] Eriksson “NOT” likely to be moved on
N4ZZY replied to Provost's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
if he does well and makes the opening day roster, then yeah, i'll be cheering for him. i don't want any harm done on the guy. i just think he's not deserving of his contract and his play has been so bad that it's hard not to dislike the guy. One thing I know about Canuck fans is that we love a player who gives it their all, whether he's a superstar or not. This is why players like Kesler, Hansen, Burrows were such beloved players. Kesler well before his 'breakout' years. -

I am old enough to remember Arturs Irbe. He was so small, but what a beast. didn't he have his most productive years as a Cane? -

[Report] Eriksson “NOT” likely to be moved on
N4ZZY replied to Provost's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
It's not surprising that Eriksson will still be on this team, or at the very least, organization. What I'm worried about is more how this will affect the ability to sign Brock to an extension. 6 million dollar cap hit is a lot. And what about the future when EP's ELC contract is up, and Hughes as well? How do we afford to keep those two, while still tied to Eriksson's albatross of a contract, as well as Sutter's (unless his contract expires when Pettersson's and Hughes' is up). Right now. I'd take a seventh round pick for Eriksson. I'm sure Benning can get a decent pick from the seventh round, and I'd take a long shot prospect over Eriksson right now. How much does the Canucks actually save if they bury Eriksson in Utica? -
[Rumour] Puljujarvi to play in Finland until he is traded

hate the idea of trading BB6 -
[Rumour] Puljujarvi to play in Finland until he is traded
N4ZZY replied to The_Rocket's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
What RFA trap would that be? -
I'm not surprised that Juolevi's down and forgotten. But it may work for him actually. Less media coverage on him, less expectations - he's kind of forgotten in a market that often does not forget easily on any of their prospects or players. That should do him some good while it lasts cause it won't last long.
