Hairy Kneel 7,133 Posted June 30, 2020 26 players just reportedly tested positive for covid. Ctv news reported. Not sure but I think all players testing positive should not play this playoffs. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s where it’s going to backfire and mess up the quality of the “playoffs” this season , if this gets off the ground.. I mean seriously, is it so hard not to realize that the last 2 remaining teams might only be able to dress 10 decent players without it be coming the year of “the emergency call up player” Cup?

Here's my question why would a professional athlete risk his career for maybe a weeks, 2 or 3 games, and end up with Covid repercussions for life? They haven't as of today been able to measure the long lasting effects of the respiratory problems. If it's me, or mine, or as an agent I'd recommend stay at home until they have a treatment or vaccine 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I played at that level I would bow out until the next season starts. The PA and NHL could be working out many better things for the future of the game at this time.. Owners in cities with low attendance should be given pragmatic solutions to relocate .. Quebec deserves a team back. Another out west... portland, Frisco, Oakland , Diego.. Seattle is going to go off so well, looking forward to that. Fighting this Pandemic is just flailing stupidity. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hairy Kneel 7,133 Posted July 1, 2020 (edited) From the Podz thread: me and SID HK: It would be cool to have Podz and Tryamkin add their perestroika to the club. They can tell Russian jokes to each other in the dressing room. SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME I’m more looking forward to their glasnost, personally HK: I'm hoping Podz owns the means of production and Tryamkin can end the exploitation and oppression of our proletarian defense. SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Well said, comrade! Our players have nothing to lose but their chains! Forward to victory!

Stierlitz 3,477 Posted July 2, 2020 From Rick Dhaliwal twitter of June 29th: Quote ----We may be getting closer to finding out about defenseman Nikita Tryamkin’s future in Vancouver.With the CBA and return to play discussions moving forward that should provide the spark needed for GM Jim Benning's holding pattern to be cleared for landing and try and get Tryamkin signed for the 2021 season.Once there is some clarity on the cap look for the Canucks and Tryamkin's camp to try and work out a 1 or 2 year deal. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Provost 7,253 Posted July 2, 2020 (edited) I think they have to figure out other pieces first. They can’t have the extra million they would have to pay for Tryamkin to cost them one of Toffoli or Tanev. It they sign Tryamkin before the 15th (KHL training camps) it probably means they have a good sense of not being able to sign Tanev/Stecher to a budget friendly deal.

For defence, I think Tryamkin, Rathbone & Barrie sign and Tanev & Stecher go.

Steven Stamkos 111 Posted July 3, 2020 I’m going to assume this might mean there’s somewhat of an idea to work with our cap crunch. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Outsiders 2,548 Posted July 3, 2020 Hughes-________ ( Trade Virtanen + for top pairing D) We have Lind and Pod to take his place or even resign Leivo cheap for 1 year to bridge the gap. Edler-Myers Tryamkin-Rafferty Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairy Kneel 7,133 Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) Apparently Coach Green had communications with Tryamkin over the last while. (Theres a interview in the link)And I am glad that I am not the only one enamored with his physical gifts Nastrovia!!!

Edler-Myers Tryamkin-Rafferty Don't think we can afford to give up the assets to acquire a top 4RHD. Jake is a piece to that deal but in no way the main one imo. I would do something like this: Hughes-Myers(gets paid to play this kind of role) Edler- Barrie(maybe signs here like hamhuis?)

Canuckster86 3,232 Posted July 3, 2020 Hope we sign him for at least 2 years. I am sure the agent will try to take him to UFA as early as possible though to give him more options potentially. Either way the big Russian Tower on the back end would be a welcome addition! 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One year gives us a chance to see if he can play before committing. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
