insomniac604 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Swap MATTHIAS and VEY. They can share face off duties for their strong side but MATTHIAS is bigger and more responsible on the defensive side than VEYYes, on paper. But last season Matthias got several opportunities at C that didn't last long. Makes me think something's up. Especially considering LA let Vey go because of their C depthNot that I totally trust Torts' evaluations. But still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Vanderhoek Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 $ 1.75m per is an excellent caphit for Kassian. Thats a good deal for Vancouver. You are always going to have to pay over value with unrestricted free agency, Vancouver did well in adding Miller and Vrbata at what ? .5m - 1m over an ideal caphit on each. But bringing Kassian back on two years at 1.75m per shows the Canucks are keeping their salaries in check. But also shows Kassians commitment to the team moving forward.

rawkdrummer Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Yes, on paper. But last season Matthias got several opportunities at C that didn't last long. Makes me think something's up. Especially considering LA let Vey go because of their C depth Not that I totally trust Torts' evaluations. But still. If Torts was doing the evaluating he'd be asking "who's Vey" and farm club, what's a farm club? That "goof off" doesn't see any farther than his own nose.

bleednucksblue Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Swap MATTHIAS and VEY. They can share face off duties for their strong side but MATTHIAS is bigger and more responsible on the defensive side than VEY Vey played in an organization that stresses playing on both sides of the puck and his plus/minus numbers in the AHL have been good.

messier's_elbow Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Good signing. Kass will still be a RFA and if he proves himself he will get a fat contract. Makes the Vrbata 2-year deal look good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
