HockeyHarry 1,707 Posted January 22, 2020 I’m Sure Jimbo and Canucks staff will be watching Tryamkins KHL play closely til his contract ends. Big Tryamkin may win coach Green over pre NHL return...which would be a good thing. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slegr 3,233 Posted January 22, 2020 Having Tryamkin on our roster for playoffs would be such a bonus. The last couple of times we did make the post-season, we limped in, and by the elimination game, I was almost wanting the Canucks to lose like you want to see your old. ailing dog be put out of its misery. Now we’re getting bigger, younger, and stronger, and hopefully can play tough when it counts the most. 2 1 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aliboy 1,123 Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) I expect you guys already know this but Tryamkin can be signed after the trade deadline and still play in this years playoffs, here's the article which also states that this does apply to RFA's. https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/and-now-you-know/2019/1/9/18174522/so-you-heard-a-rumour-about-the-toronto-maple-leafs-signing-a-european-ufa "However, if you read that rule it says it doesn’t apply to players on the reserve list or players on loan to the European club. That means players the Leafs already have the rights to, who have been loaned to Europe, are eligible to join the team. They can even join their NHL team after the trade deadline and still play in the playoffs." Edited January 22, 2020 by aliboy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s alll depending on His KHL playoffs. I haven’t watched Automobilist play this season only highlights and standings. So I’m not sure how good they will be in the KHL playoffs. Nhl playoff starts.... what? Second week in April. So I would think Big Tryamkin needs to be a Canuck by Mid March for him to see any real Canuck action this season. Green will not play a April arrival Tryamkin. all and all I can’t wait til he’s a Canuck again. Im hoping for sooner the better. You might be right if the Canucks have no injuries on the blueline at the time. However, I think there is a better chance that the Canucks go 16 & 0 in the playoffs than there is of them having no injuries on D in April, especially keeping in mind what a brutal schedule they have in March.

NexusRift 154 Posted January 22, 2020 Is everyone just hopeful of Tree's return, or is there actually a legitimate return. I'm not tryin' to be a Debbie Downer, but I don't see the point in discussing how much better we'd be when he's not even in the league. It's all speculative, right?

stawns 21,507 Posted January 22, 2020 I'll be completely shocked if he plays in Van this season, and mildly shocked if he's back in Van for next season. He seems to like his home country Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tracksuit 611 Posted January 22, 2020 Hulking d-man, former Canucks prospect, looking to make NHL comeback Mike Olivson · 20 janvier 2020 A giant of a man, listed at 6'7" and weighing 265lbs, Nikita Tryamkincould be an intriguing addition to Vancouver's defensive corps. The former Canucks' third round pick from 2014 left the team as an RFA to return to Russia in April of 2017. He was unhappy with his lack of playing time and was having trouble adjusting to life in North America. Over two seasons with the Canucks, he played in 79 games, putting up 11 points and 74 PIMs. Over the last two years, he has enjoyed moderate success with Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg of the KHL, but according to Alexey Shevchenko of Sport Express, he is regretting leaving the NHL, blaming it on the emotional inexperience of youth. Now 25, Tryamkin is ready to get down to business Just a story I saw on a feed looks like he’s matured and the fact he blames his own emotions is a real positive and learning experience. Sure Hope he makes a return and for the Canucks. 2 3 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Personally, I think that there is more than a 90% chance that he will be wearing Canucks colours starting sometime in 2020.

There have been quotes from NT and his agent Todd Diamond over the last 12 months that lean heavily for his return to Vancouver. Everyone is just staying politically correct at this moment, but I think we will know what direction this young man is going within 10 days of his season ending. “Season ending” being when either his regular season ends , or his playoff season ends. His first season here, I believe he was practicing with us on the 6th or 7th day after his KHL season ended. He played 60- 70 games with us as a 21 year old rookie/ prospect.. looked fantastic.. I don’t think we will see any worse than the game he brought which had Benning offering him a contract to stay. 2 1 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well we certainly don't want any of those players who think they should keep their word and honour their obligations. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Herberts Vasiljevs 4,356 Posted January 23, 2020 (edited) Okay, totally hypothetical but just a bit of fun really: Tanev gets traded to the Leafs at the deadline for Kasperi Kapanen, and Tram comes back to Vancouver before the start of the playoffs and wears #8.

Hairy Kneel 7,139 Posted January 23, 2020 watched todays game Avto won, Tryamkin had a solid game in a 3-1 victory. My favorite move was how he broke up a play with his sweeping poke check. Skating backwards the forward thought he had room to move towards the blueline but no he didn't. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
