    That's what your saying now...what if he gets injured - or just doesn't play as well as he has been, we don't trade him and next year the best we can hope for is cap space or a late first?   Miller could actually work out to both better the team now, and for the future if we trade him this year - with retention he's a gold mine.  

    Hes been playing this well for basically his entire tenure here. I don't expect him to drop off a cliff.

     

    And if he gets injured? As long as he's projected back for the playoffs, that might open up more trade partners. Teams up against the cap can put him on LTIR and reactivate him for game 1

    If djoko is officially out before the order of play for day 1 is released, then rublev (5th seed) gets moved out of Felix's section and into Djoko's spot.

     

    Rublev would be replaced by Monfils in Felix's section of the draw

    Which draft bust hurt us the most ?

    If I have to choose between the 3, Juolevi.

     

    Hodgson wasn't going to push that team over the hump anyways.

     

    Virtanen at least got few hundred games in for us.

     

    If Juolevi panned out, then he would have been at least as good as Edler.

     

    Can you imagine?

     

    Hughes

    OEL

    young Edler

     

    on our LD?

    We don't need to trade for OEL if Juolevi plays like Edler.

     

    Hughes, Juolevi, Rathbone as LD

    Clears. People complain about Joulevi and JV picks. Happens all the time to every team. Why people think we are special I’ll never know lol

    Combination of $&!#ting on Benning and just not following the rest of the league. When you only follow one team, you only know about one team.

     

    The years I took a break from my hockey pool were when I knew the least about the rest of the league

    What a sad return. Juolevi has more goals in his short NHL career than Juulsen who was supposed to be this offensive dynamo back in junior.

     

    That being said, I wish this kid well and hope he flourishes in Abbotsford and/or Canucks.

     

     

     

    I think they both have 2 career goals.

     

    And Juulson was only picked 1 draft earlier than Juolevi

    Vancouver is the only team in the entire NHL that can't have a full rink to start the year...

     

     

    Id say a high vaccination rate correlates with a more cautious level of decision making regarding opening up more in the pandemic. The places most gung ho to open everything back up (or just never close it down) tend to have poorer vaccination rates 

     

    That's not to say we won't have 100% capacity by home opener, but the province won't rush the decision.

    Rathbone has played in all 5 preseason games. They definitely have a favourite they're desperately trying to get in the lineup. Problem is, Jack isn't ready IMO.

    There are cap implications to Rathbone making the team vs being a call up.

     

    He'll have a higher cap hit as a call up because we're using Ferlands LTIR

    Petey and Quinn need to play the last 2 preseason games and so do all players Green thinks are going to make it.  

     

    We are not going to be ready to start the season at this rate.

     

    Petey and Quinn holding out were not Green's fault.  But now he needs to ice a real team for two games to get ready.  

     

     

     

    Could not agree more

    Missing three of our top 4 and four of our top 6.

     

    No one should be that worried. Next two games is when the real fun begins.

     

    I do worry that we're not going to be able to get our full team to gel as well as Seattle is doing.

     

    Even with Petey and Hughes coming in, Boeser is injured, Hamonic is ?????, and Sutter and Motte are not available either.

    so based on the numbers EP signed for.. seems the issue with the contract is more Benning than EP for dragging it out this long. i mean he's signing for barely more than barzal makes u wonder what he even offered EP in the beginning.. i doubt if he offered 7mil x3 right from the get go it would drag this long over 350k apart.

    Benning was probably trying to get him signed for 6-8 years. Those negotiations would've taken a lot of time

     

    Even once they settled on 3 years, JP Barry wouldnt have countered Bennings offer with 7.35 per year. The ask would've been higher and they took time to meet at 7.35
