Pavel the Bure

Marky be ready ! We are coming for you, nothing personal man, but you are going down ! lol

Benning Benning ......Great signings, prefer Markstrom but he will cost more $$ and Demko is for real, great job GM !!

prefer Wennberg too but he should cost more

The only problem is NOBODY wants Sutter, interesting about $$$ in this signings

He was my MVP during playoff time, his energy was Amazing ! I am so glad he is staying, very decent contract for both sides .

Better no deal vs Bad deal, Benning tried, not work out, show must go ....

https://allhockey.ru/news/show/395144-Hudobin_slozhno_postoyanno_zhit_v_roli_zhertvy Today interview with Hudobin "Will see how situation unfold, the way Dallas will act. If no changes in situation. then YES I become Free Agent. Did I have an offer ? Yes, Dallas offer me a deal, we still negotiating. Understand me right, all my life I sacrifice something, we want to have a deal done. I can take less money but you also do something for me. Again, my agent and club still talking. Please understand me right in any situation is a room for negotiation. I know how much I cost, I am not asking for crazy money and contract (time), I am asking for fair deal, will see at the end". Also mention he wants to stay in NHL, COVID 19 and owners loosing money, empty stadiums.

I don't think Vegas will trade MAF to West, they will trade him to East and its only matter of time ...

Vegas in 5 or 6, too much pressure for Marky, it will be fun but on paper Vegas better team, we need healthy Myers badly IMO

I am not trying to catch up Sir Just explained my feelings on possible Trymkin return. What else his agent will say ? and you know what, my chance to meet Queen Elizabeth better then 50%, I am not planning to visit London any time soon and she is not getting any younger but chances are the same. We all understand Trymkin will improve Canucks D, I'll be first to cheer for him (Russian connection) but you need to put all factors in consideration.

from December 11, 2019 Sport-Express CSKA (Moscow) show some interest in Vegas forward Valentin Zykov and Vancouver forward Nikolay Goldobin. "Currently we are interesting in two forwards -Zykov and Goldobin" according to president of CSKA Igor Esmantovich. 24 year old Zykov played 8 games this year in NHL and have 2 assists, 24 year old Goldobin played only one game .

Garrett contract expiries on January 14, 2020 with Dallas. You don't need to fire coach on Black Friday, Jerry make this right, meet with Garrett few times and announced he is not will be back.

Kovalchuk done , best descriptions about today Kovalchuk = "Can’t move, doesn’t want to move, and his shot, which used to be lethal, is not good anymore," the scout added.

Good questions to ask, he is playing for Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg, he is from Yekaterinburg, in 2018-2019 season he was second highest paid player (defencemen ) and made 48 ml ruble salary and 11 mln bonus (they have different system in KHL) total 59 mln in 2018-19 season which about 950.000 US on TODAY exchange. Life for sure cheaper in Yekaterinburg and its not even close. I never heard from him something like "I want to play in best hockey league in the world", at the same time he is always talking about "home, nice to be home, coach second father" , and this is WHY I am questioning his desire to return. Again, I hope I am wrong, Canucks will be better with him.

I am trying to listen interview if possible, always prefer video to reading newspaper/news. I never witnessed his complains on video, interesting video from 04/27/2016 about his first season -high level of organization in Vancouver, good fans, smaller ice, a lot of attention from press, daily questions, like under microscope, first shift in NHL 12 sec, good words towards Sedins ...missing family, 1.5 month alone. At the same time September 27/2017 Sport-Express interview : In Vancouver every where smell of marijuana . Question : Pavel Datsyuk many times said that he wants to return home Answer: Life without Russians-FINISH, always want to go home, its normal, here is my city, my team, I start to play hockey here. Question: You signed contract for 3 years but after that Canucks still own rights for your service? Answer: Do you think I am out of luck ? I will not say that Canucks bad team or something like that. At the same time I am not sure if I go over sea after my contract finish in Russia, will see, If they want me, If contract will be good for me, too early to say. Question: Recently, one of Vancouver portal (not sure newspaper or internet) have a poll if you come back, 51% said NO. Answer: That's it, decision made (laughing), will see, to early to say, to early to even think about this Question: Jim Benning said that you went home because of "family issues" ? Answer: Family and hockey together, not a single problem Question: about Goldy and at the end asking why he is come back, not enough ice time ? Answer: Many times I was on the bench, No-not many times, always me ! And I don't understand why ? I am playing good game and 5-7 minutes before the end, they put me on the bench without any explanations, a little bit unusual. He is good player and person, he is also comfortable and HOME now, if you force me to bet...I will bet against his come back.

I really enjoyed last night game, due to my work schedule I don't have many opportunities to watch a full game, game against Chicago must be honored with Michelin stars .

I hope I am wrong but my feelings is Tryamkin will never play in Vancouver again. He is comfortable in Russia now, he was Super unhappy here (I read/watch many interviews in Russian language), and finally I don't think (personal opinion) he is mentally ready to play at the high level under constant pressure. Again, I hope I am wrong.....

Podkolzin nice player, but I wish we drafted Pavel Dorofeyev , He was drafted in 3rd round #79 by Vegas, I think he is a real deal.

Negotiations ? I am not saying he will sign with Toronto for 4mln less, but its very well documented he is a Toronto lover, lets see signature under the offer sheet first, all I am saying

Depends on two factors : 1) What Toronto offering , 2) Which team offer sheet him, if Columbus, YES, I am strongly belief he will turn down any offers, if NYI.....I am not sure

you can offer sheet all you want , Marner need to sign first, he is from Toronto , say all you want its mean a lot to some players ….

Igor Eronko of Sport-Express explains on Twitter that Gusev is looking for a two-year, $8MM deal while the Golden Knights want to sign him for half of that total. What are you/we willing to pay ? 2 years 8mln ? Too much or about right ?

Jim B Dominate in FA 2019/2020 season ! Don't stop JIm !!

LOVED ! Absolutely well done !

Much better deal than was reporting/rumoring from the start, solid signing, JimB delivered !
