stawns Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 a lot of people sure got worked up about such a minor issue as Mckenna being picked up and now waived. It was a very, very minor blip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toyotasfan Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Jay Beagle and Smith-Pelly have played together before , and it’s a cheap contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

86Viking Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Philly GM just waited JB out, gathered a bunch of G on the roster, watch JB waste a late pick then sign Leighton...shoulda just signed the old guy first imo. Then he waive McKenna. Canuck fans will be upset at how Philly did this, but if its in the rules its legit I guess. JB should have have a back up plan right away he didnt and so he went and did what he did. DSP might get a claim as he is cheap, shows well in the playoffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Philly have any RFAs we can throw some offer sheets at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanukfanatic Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 If Mckenna is better than one of our other 2 AHLers then you claim him and move one of the others. As for DSP, isn't he just another bottom 3 forward? We have tons of those. No need for him imo.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't put McKenna in Utica. We'd have to waive him ourselves to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually because we lost him on waivers earlier in the season we could... as long as no other team put in a claim we would be able to send him down right away.

hammertime Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I like Cramberry he was a fine pickup though I'm not surprised to see him back on the wire come deadline Mckenna well thats a troll job I wish there were some kind of rule that if you pick a player off waivers you have to play them x number of games or have them on your roster for x number of days the way the poor guy gets tossed around is inhumane. You can say what you want about him making x amount of dollars I still say it's not worth it. I hope he signs an AHL deal and finds some stability to be with his family. DSP There is lots to like there but none the less he seems to find himself tossed around this time of year. I'd take a chance on him. He is good depth Roussel Beagle DSP looks like a solid 4th unit to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violator Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I think if we were firm in a playoff spot we should pick up dsp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As per the CBA article 13.22 When a Club claims a Player on Regular or Unconditional Waivers, and, subsequently, in the same season it requests Waivers on the same Player and the original owning Club is the successful and only Club making a Waiver claim, then the original owning Club shall be entitled to Loan such Player to a club in another league within thirty days without further Waivers being asked; provided that such Player has not participated in ten or more NHL Games (cumulative) and remained on an NHL roster more than thirty days (cumulative) following such successful claim. Wording of the CBA is "in the same season". If we did reclaim we could send him down right away or wait and do it later as he would have the "10 game or 30 days" waiver exemption.

mll Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 15 hours ago, Jimmy McGill said: Yeah I think its 46 now since Leighton's doesn't kick in until next season. So there's temporary room. I do think Schaller might still have a good reputation out east so I'm hoping there's someone wanting him for free, even at 1.9, 1.025 of which would be buried the AHL anyway if he clears and is then traded. CapFriendly now shows the Canucks at 47 contracts after adding Leighton. His deal is only for the rest of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe goes back to Kesler getting offer sheeted or something? 17 hours ago, PhillipBlunt said: Screw Philly. And Benning should take a waiver on DSP, although I'm sure Edmonton will pick him up. If Benning doesn't put in a claim I will be more pissed than whether or not they get him. DSP is the exact type of player this team has been looking forever. Ditch that bum Schaller. Admit he has been a total flop. Put him on waivers and bury his ass if you have too. DSP is a playoff player, with Virtanen out they can use some more size and hitting to take some of the load off Roussel and MacEwen. Plus DSP has shown he can provide offence from a bottom six role and be a good energy guy. He just needs to be more consistent with controlling his weight and staying in shape to keep his energy up. Playing his style over an 82 game season consistently is hard on the body. In shorter stretches he can be a force as he showed in the playoffs throwing his weight around.

I have zero interest in adding vets at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
