Well ppl always deserve a 2nd chance. I think the sedins can really help him. Would suck if someone gave him a chance and turned out to be a hell of a player. Why cant we be the ones that straighten him out?
Means if he screws up we can easily get rid of him. Whats the buyout for a million dollar contract? If he plays like he has and becomes a good teammate well we might have struck gold without giving up any assets
edit: wouldnt he be the perfect person for the sedins to mentor? Isnt this one of the main reasons they were hired?
For me first off id try n get appleton outta winnipeg for left wing 3rd line. 900k
sign tony angelo for 2 or 3 years at 1 mill per(cheap buyout if it doesnt pan out) huge upside
sign getzlaf or stepan as our 3rd line center for 1 year
Olesiak sign for 3 years as UFA
janmark sign 2 yr 1.75 AAV
keep our 1st rounder
Canucks roster 2021-22
Miller-Petey-Boeser
Pearson-Horvat-Hoglander
Appleton-Getzlaf/Stepan-Podkozin
motte-Janmark-Lockwood
Hughes-DeAngelo
Schmidt-Olesiak
Rathbone-Myers
Demko
Holtby
I mean he kinda ticks all the boxes for what we want, tough, good defensively, right handed shot and already has chemistry with rathbone. If we get parayko at 8 mill id rather use that extra money saved to extend miller, boeser and horvat.
