I will bet you the money the Canucks were offering was way less then the big guy wanted. This is a good sign that old Jimbo is starting to clue in to the importance of managing your cap space. You can't be throwing a guy like Tryamkin 3 to 4 mil with a lengthy term. I would rather keep Hamonic. 1.5 to 2 mil tops for Tryamkin. No more than two years. He can get close to that at home. That's my guess........it came down to Tryamkin or keeping Harmonic. That's an easy decision, imo. Let's hope JB wraps of TH 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect Diamond was shrewd and was just trolling Avto all along. He probably told Tree to leave his Canuck jersey picture on his Instagram page and dropped a lot of quotes about him wanting to come back to the NHL. It seems to have been a very fast signing after negotiations just got started. Winners are Tryamkin, Diamond and the Canucks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s be serious here, this decision and negotiation could have been made while he still had the option to trade his rights to a more suitable NHL team. I think Tryamkin is a giant drama Queen who probably had unrealistic demands, but at the same time, this should have been known for quite some time. It always seems like he runs into these sudden surprises completely unprepared. This is what happens when you’re a GM who focuses on the day you woke up to. You do realize that Nikita was under contract prior to the trade deadline? Not sure how you can "guarantee" something that you know nothing about.

Silky mitts Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Thank god stop this love affair with this guy he straight up sucks and is not nhl caliber. I don’t want to hear his name ever again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beary Sweet Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 (edited) Maybe a little late to the party but hey it’s never too late! Sucks that Tryamkin won’t be coming back here but it happens. People have their personal reasons and he made what was the best decision for himself. Good luck, Tryamkin!

Me_ Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Ok I’m done with that one. He’s not coming back to the Canucks. The Canucks should trade his rights to Buffalo where it’s more like Russian wasteland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used canucks as leverage for a better deal at home. It's disappointing as his potential seemed pretty high... But where have we heard that before e.g.)Virt. Both these guys were picked because of size and potential.... Unfortunately both their character are below average. They both lack the work ethic and professionalism needed to be difference makers in the NHL. Benning made a mistake picking these guys. But to his credit I don't think his picks since have character issues close to what these guys have. Oh well... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appleboy Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 We will be getting a heavy dose of Chatty , OJ and hopefully Rathbone for the rest of the year. They will be wanting to see what they have. There is a good chance to find some ED deals kicking around. Hopefully they get the Hughes / Petey deals done so they know what the cap surplus will be.

Hairy Kneel Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Damn. A sure contract in his hometown. Probably better than the 2M here. We had a huge covid scare. Now he's a UFA if he wants to try again. Which I think he will. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't think he is about a big NHL deal, he's making enough in the place he wants to be. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honky Cat Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Disappointed that he didnt give it a go here next season. Obviously, playing in the NHL wasnt as important to him as he would have us believe. Books closed on this player now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhippy Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 He wanted to play at home Wife wanted to stay at home New baby Covid issues Statements about not being super keen on the city of Vancouver maybe not taken totally out of context He's where he wants to be, seems he leveraged himself a much better deal to stay in his home town and all the power to him. We can now move on to the next will he won't he prospect player we will vastly overhype to some ridiculous degree and then keep making statements about Russians being flight risks /end thread 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentSam Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Soooo disappointing. Diamond said they would take a one or 2 year deal.. and Canucks were far apart. ? this is unfortunate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 The 2014 draft looked so promising, now look at it... Virtanen - potentially having his contract terminated McCann- traded and now performing for another team Tryamkin - unable to sign to more than one contract Forsling - traded for nothing and performing for another team At least we got Demko to save that draft otherwise it would have been a complete bust. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
