    I know there are great talents here! Help me?

    in Creative and Media Forum

    Posted

    Been a member here a long time, long enough to know some of you are mindblowingly good at photoshop or whatever magic you work.

     

    Looking for help with a guild emblem.

    If I post some pictures can you take inspiration with that and run with it?

     

    My concept is the Canadian flag picture as a background, with the Battle axe skull and crossbones overlayed ontop, without any of the word marks just graphic.

    And the WeTheNorth wordmark as a header on the big picture. Or in an even better font you pros do.

     

    Other than that, creative freedom is yours.

     

    Hope someone has time to help and show off their skills.

    Thanks!

    I hear your point but Buffalo and Edmonton both have new coaches though and while draisaitl and mcdavid with smith could get Edmonton far the sabres have vastly improved.

     

     

    They added Colin Miller Henri Jokiharju and Brandon montour last trad e deadline. Pilut might be the best defensemen know one knows lik le

    olofsson until this year was the best Swedish fed no on knows, they added Marcus Johansson jimmy vesey along with olofsson abdnmuttlestadt growing skinner is good and Reinhart is amazing this year. Ullmark is solid and Hutton’s ina. Contract year

     

    then 

    dahlin and Eichel another year older, Jack has  200 pts in his last 188 games! He did that with both his ankles sprained and no help for the most part compared to the rest of the league.

     

    dahlin just put up the second best 18 yr old defensemen season in nhl history with numbers that we’re crazy, housley is first he passed Bobby Orr who is third. He had a all around corsi of fifty seven ppercent last year in all situations and at 18 averages 21 mins a game against men while playing behind a crap

    team last Years.

     

     

    Anyway

     

    I think buffalo and hav have deeper better cores then oilers like Canucks sabres have abs amazing prospects on net demki DiiPin= ukko pekka Luukonen snd ullmark

     

    I agree the Sabres have vastly improved. 

     

    I guess my point was that, young teams show flashes of brilliance but often take extra years to put together the consistency.

     

    Whether it be the young guys, or the supporting pieces, or the right coach for that group.

     

    Whatever the circumstances are, it takes some time for it to come together and be the real deal.

    Young teams are streaky, happens around the league every year.

     

    Edmonton and Buffalo have started out hot in the first month and by christmas are near the bottom of the league.

     

    This year they are sustaining it so far, but who knows what will happen there too.

     

    We have alot of youth, with that comes high highs and low lows.

     

    The season is long,  we will see what this group is made of.

     

    Worst case scenario.... it's a strong draft and our pick is lotto protected.

    [Report] Canucks assign Adam Gaudette to Comets

    in Canucks Talk

    Posted

    I'm glad he is going down, he can play a big role for Utica,  instead of sitting in the press box.

     

    I think he is NHL quality, but we seem to have better for once.

     

    It will benefit his all around fame, he isn't going to pout, he's a driven kid with a pro attitude.

     

    He'll be back when the inevitable injuries happen.

    With how Markstrom is playing, there is no way JB is going to let him walk without a serious offer.  

     

    Markstrom seems to be a real team guy has finally found success.  I see him wanting to stay.  

     

    Unless we lose one to expansion I don't see an issue.  

     

    IMO the club will likely trade with Seattle to protect both guys atm.  I see Stecher as the likely expansion give away.  

     

    In fact if the club looks like it will lose one to expansion I would rather move Demko for another prospect, pick or to facilitate shedding Erikssons deal.  

     

    Dallas, how about Demko, Stecher and Eriksson for Honka and a cap dump.  

     

     

    Markstrom sure has been good, hard to want to let him go.

     

    Demko being younger and potentially just as good is a consideration too,  depends on how that potential does over the next couple seasons here.

     

    I wonder what it would take to get seattle to pick Eriksson.

    Got a great idea.  Sign Marky, then give Demko a bridge deal.  By the end of the bridge trade one away.  

     

    Why do we have to trade one now.  Yes Seattle, but that is out of our control.  Other than Seattle, what's the fuss atm. 

    We don't have to trade one now, I agree, was speaking about before the expansion.

     

    Which is out of our control, but losing a prime asset for nothing may cause some fuss.

     

    If Demko reaches his potential, which he is on trajectory to do so still.

    I would keep him and unload Markstrom.

     

    But not yet, if at all.

    Yes.. you disagreed with me before on this.... like I said the situation under where snider's got traded was very unique.... both goalies like being here.... no ones demanding a trade... I think you valuation on return for demko is way to low. Ye schnider went for a top 10 pick... do you believe demko to be inferior I believe them to be same caliber...the diffrence is schnider demanded a trade and wanted out of VAN NOW because Kessler was banging his wife/girlfriend the rest of the league knew van was in a pinch. This is just not the case with Demko and Markstrom.

    Not to mention... if you look at the nhl right now there are a few teams really In need of a goalie to be competative. We traded schnider to New Jersey who still had brodeaur ( how is that a goalie problem ) in order for schnider to learn and take over for the legend. I wouldnt call this a goalie crisis and such was a opportunistic pickup on vancouver for minimum.

    Maybe we wouldnt get 1st plus Valeno..  but a 1st and a good prospect sure! We can always sign Marky and move Demko when the right deal comes along so we can get proper value...  

    Just my opinion

    While no one is demanding a trade, their is a deadline on making a deal with the expansion draft coming.

     

    Overly optimistic but Demko could be better than Schneids, minimum just as good, I agree he should have great value.

     

    They knew Brodeur was retiring and had nothing in the system behind him,  some would say they saw the problem coming.

     

    We should sign Marky and wait for the right deal to come along, I just don't know which goalie should be moving out yet.

     

    Or if losing a goalie at the draft, will help us protect an even more important player within.

     

    I haven't broken down who needs protection yet.

     

    I don't disagree with your thought process, only the estimated return.

    I would be happy to be wrong here.

    Good comeback from behind for the win, and grats to horvat on his 3 goals, well deserved .

     

    And really who cares, i read a couple people crying that our wins were against bottom feeder teams, so? , a win is a win, counts in the standings and once playoff time comes, these wins maybe important.

    wash on the weekend, and if we beatem, we are for real, fingers crossed

    I agree, good teams consistently beat bad teams.

     

    Lose-Lose situation for some people out there, if we lose to bottom feeders we suck, if we win we still suck because they were bottom feeders?

    The boys got it done, be happy. 

     

    Not planning a parade or  even a playoff party at this point, they will be tested against the Capitals here soon and others.

     

    But those people should just be enjoying the wins.

    I agree with your statement.... however I dont agree with you 100% for me it becomes a case of asset management.

     

    My head works like this.

     

    Let's say we have 2 similar quality goalies in Marky and Demko one old and one young.

     

    If we dont sign and move Marky at the TDL maybe we get a 3rd? Or a 2nd? As a rental I'm thinking a third.... if we cant find a taker we get 0.

     

    So in that scenario we will have demko ( Similar quality Goalie younger) + 3rd round pick - 0 .

     

    If we sign Marky and trade Demko to a team like I dunno Detroit.... i think we could get a 1st and a blue chip prospect. That's my opinion.

     

    So in this scenario we will have Marky ( similar quality goalie older)  + top 10 draft pick + blue chip (Joe veleno?).

     

    We have obtained significantly more for demko.... maybe even a top 3 pick.....and a blue chip... 

    Marky is still young enough that if we did this there is time to develop another goalie. We can use 2nd round picks or even a late first to draft 1 or 2 sutible prospects...  and with the low draft pick and  guy like veleno we will have boosted our firepower significantly.

     

    Vs only getting a 3rd round pick for Marky as a rental.

     

    I think what your suggesting is essentially giving away a valuable asset because of contract situation and the fear of not being able to develop a solid goalie in time. 

     

    But I believe the assets gained far outweigh the potential risk..

     

    Just my opinion

     

     

     

     

    You have posted this hopeful return for Demko a couple times  now.

     

    I have to disagree here,

    Our own Cory Schneider returned the highest ever draft pick for a goalie in a trade, and it was straight up.

    As others have mentioned. 

     

    He was far more proven, more years in the league, bigger sample size.

     

    Demko is going to return as good of a pick, and a top prospect?

    It's just very unlikely, especially in a time where goalies are going for less and less it would seem.

     

    A mid to late first at best, if he performs as we all hope, with no extra prospects, is more realistic.

     

    I would rather sign and trade Markstrom if Demko performs that well I think.

     

    Haven't broken down the big picture of who we will have to expose yet beyond goalies,  is exposing Markstrom and risking losing him, but saving another player of ours, more valuable than anyone we could bring in from trading him?

     

    Main point here, Neither goalie is getting Detroit first and a top prospect.

    Especially not with Stevie Y running the ship there.

    Ya probably a good chance of that but I think his age does play a role and Marky seems like location might be more important than extra dollars (if over six million, there are some other veteran free agents available in 2020).

    Hopefully he takes a team friendly deal I agree.  He may not have reached his potential without the Canucks, maybe he will take less to stay.

    IMO Benning better keep both

     

    Your not looking at the bigger picture and what this thread is really all about.

     

    I agree with the above posters on this page here.

    Keeping both until the draft may just allow us to save someone else, a forward or a dman.

    Let them take the lesser of 2 goalies at that time.

    Guaranteed Seattle will take one. 

     

    Lots of time untill then. Almost two seasons. 

     

    Not worth trading Demko yet. His value will be a lot higher in a year and half from now. Trade him then. Or let Marky go next summer of his contract demands are too high. Demko will be ready to be starter next season. 

    While his value may be higher, I think our possible returns may be lower the closer to expansion we wait.

     

    Teams are going to know we have to unload one or lose him.

     

    I don't want to trade either lol, crap situation.

    Sign Marky to a four year $5MM to $5.5MM contract and protect Demko for the expansion draft. If Seattle takes Marky so be it but chances are they don't and the Canucks will have a solid goalie tandem for the next 2 to 3 years until one of Marky or Demko get moved.

    That's not going to be enough money at this rate.  I was hoping around that same price tag, I'm starting to think 6mil will be the starting point.
