Popular Post SilentSam Posted May 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2020 22 hours ago, SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME said: And also some rumours of questionable effort and motivation: “I don’t know what happened in a year, but something changed,” Sports-Express KHL insider Igor Eronko said earlier this year. “Nikita and I are well acquainted, I know him a lot, I’ve had some interviews with him so I know him as a person and as a hockey player. But something wasn’t good for him after that year. He was kind of not feeling in the right place and right position.”“He got the ‘C’ on the jersey and then the coach took it off later because of effort,” Eronko said. “The coach saw three or four other D, showing much better effort and he wants top determination from every player.” And here are Tryamkin’s KHL stats in black and white: So, has Tryamkin increased his NHL value by 50-75% in the three seasons he’s been away? For me, it’s a big no. Sid, It could easily be that Nik regretted not staying in Vancouver.. As for his last 2 seasons with Avtomobilist it was rumoured that Tryamkin was being pressured to sign an extension to stay, note his second season posting only 41 games.. and the on / off again Captaincy. His game has progressed, although his numbers don’t really show it, but trust if given the right direction here, and the right opportunity, we will see something similar to his 17/18 season .. 25 pst in 51 games is nothing to shake your head at. I see a motivated above average skater, with size , strength, and skill , on stand-by , ready to sign. I do not think money is even a motivating factor at this point for him.. I think he wants to prove himself to be everything he can be, first to himself,. and at the same time to the Fans in Vancouver. He came out last season and admitted his immaturity in leaving this city,. 21 / 22 years old,. Hard to find anyone mature at that age. He also stated he wants to come back. Lets all just let this happen and cheer our best D prospect on. Either 2m or 3m per.. that’s what these conversations are about,. 1m dollars. What ever this ends up being, my guess is that it means less to Tryamkin than it does us, and 1m dollars to add to our D core what Edler dosent bring anymore, Myers tries to, Tanev can not,. Stetcher tries out side of himself to,. bring a level of physicality that in his rookie season had numerous power forwards on there backs and out of the play. .. for the argumentative sake, he will prove to be worth more. 1 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nave Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Would love for Tryamkin to come back. But, I don't know if he'll want to be a 6th or 7th defenseman. Maybe he has matured over the time he has been away, and learned more English. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’s a better player today too, than when he left. More mature, more seasoned, more experienced, more committed to his fitness, wiser to the expectations in the NHL, etc. I just don’t feel like he’s raised his value all that much. Generally speaking, when guys go over to Europe, they don’t add significant NHL value, as far as next contracts, unless they post eye-popping numbers, or show a significant upward trajectory. I agree there are reasons for optimism. And I’ve been pretty consistent in batting down claims by folks that seek to portray Tryamkin in the most negative light, whether that’s his “entitlement issues” or his quality of play. I’ve been a backer of Nik, over the past three seasons. And I still am. It just irks me to see people thinking we should just throw $3-4 million at Tryamkin, when it shouldn’t be necessary to spend anywhere near that much to get him back here. Sure, the rumours coming out suggest he wants $3+ million. Those are “feelers” coming from his camp. It’s an agent’s job to start high in any negotiation. Management starts low, and they meet in the middle. I guess it just rubs me the wrong way to see folks saying, just give Tryamkin his asking price and whatever term he wants. Why? This is not a player with that kind of negotiating power. Nowhere near it. And as far as the “we’re only talking about a difference of $1 million” argument, that money does matter. Every salary matters. Every negotiation matters. Paying too much for one player affects the next negotiation. It affects the overall salary structure. Certainly, in isolation, paying a million over market value on a single player will not break the bank. But habitually paying over market will significantly impact team building in a cap system. It’s management’s job to get the best value possible out of contracts. And I’m hopeful they will, in the case of Tryamkin. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s management’s job to get the best value possible out of contracts. And I’m hopeful they will, in the case of Tryamkin. Then the argument should be that 6 mil is too much for Edler, and the thought of paying Tanev 5+ m per in UFA is eye rolling.. .. and don’t get me started on Dead head Eriksson. The truth is we are arguing over a million dollars because of the above players and the Luongo Shtick. So Tryamkin takes the heat over a difference of a million dollars because of other mis givings. Lets scrutinize what is truly disproportionate, the top end and the lack of attrition, not the bottom end and the real future. .. 2m for one season would put NT into UFA. by then he will have proved himself to be worth 4+ per.. 3 mil is close to appropriate for anything around to a 2-4 year deal. I think the beginning of next season it’s without Tanev, signing him to anything long term is going to bite.. so is anything over what he already makes.. he is over rated. This team is long over due to be bringing its D prospects in to play. Rafferty as a 25 year old will do fine. Rathbone might be another sweet surprise like Hughes. Breisboise is chomping at the bit. again, I’m sure Tryamkin just wants to play, and what ever amount he signs for is probably more concerning for us than what it needs to be. There are bigger fish to fry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have ear marked Tryamkin as a #6 or #7 When training camp is where that is determined My opinion he will get a 2 to 4 year deal in the 2.5 to 3.5 Million per With the 2 Million coming on the shorter deal and the 3.5 coming on a 3 or 4 year deal IMO, the problem is the Max.

Hairy Kneel Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Why the drama of 3 M. There was never this much criticism of Hutton raking in 2.8 over his last 3 seasons when he was mere shadow of his first season. 3 years draggin his ass getting paid top dollar? I think 3 million is fair over 2 or 3 seasons for Try. He'll prove himself as a defense first D man. No lofty point totals because he isn't no Hughes in the O zone. But will have Hughes back when the play swings back to our end. After watching him play these past few seasons he can and is good at neutralizing threats. And Huggy will appreciate that. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Me_ Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 42 minutes ago, Provost said: I hadn’t heard that, but that would be a good day plan. Canucks Mailbag “There are a lot of moving parts on the blue line. The only certainties for next season are Alex Edler, Tyler Myers and Quinn Hughes. UFA Chris Tanev and RFA Troy Stecher could both be salary-cap casualties, and the team is expected to try moving Jordie Benn. Benn’s US$2 million salary could go to Nikita Tryamkin, and there’s a chance Brogan Rafferty makes the NHL roster after his excellent season in the AHL. Outstanding prospect Jack Rathbone could even play his way into NHL duty if he leaves Harvard, but that seems unlikely due to all the uncertainty in the hockey world – and real world – these days. After that, there’s still a chance for Juolevi on the left side. Unless the Canucks get Tanev and/or Stecher back at salaries that fit the cap, Vancouver will have to go on the market for another defenceman or two.” 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or he is taking that offensive player out of the play, usually a “give and go” or “tail and follow” for that forward. In comparison Tanev “tracks”, consistently. That does not stop any thing or anyone,. You are only try to waste time to have your forwards come deep to help you set up. Tryamkin may not look as spectacular as Tanevs greasy flo whipping outside of his lid, or his itty bitty quick feet spraying snow flakes.. But Tryamkins game IS pound for pound far more effective than Tanevs round up at OK Corral. Seek and Destroy over , Bait and Wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoring is a moot comparison between these two.

Im with you on the Leagues Buisness Jan, why not up the buy outs to 3 per team.. you don’t necessarily have to use them,. But it allows the game to shape to younger players, and the fact that some RFA signings are become the big money, prime age bracket for players. There are so many things right now that would make sense to establish or talk about to evolve the game for its betterment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Schenn a grounded D man , looked invincible with Hughes,. Imagine the possibilities with if Tryamk8n and Hughes could create a chemistry, it could be like having Bobby Orr and Z Chara paired in their prime.. 3m for 2 - 3 years for that possibility? Or risk signing him for 4m or more after his next single season as a UFA. Edited May 25, 2020 by SilentSam 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
