I think he was going on waivers if the sucker Benning and Weisbrod didn’t come along. Calgary also put Martin St Louis on waivers, not like they're always a fine judge of young talent over there...

If they killed off the penalty there wouldn't even be any discussion, but they failed. Vegas should've won game 6, they should've won game 7. But when the time came, it was Karlsson that made the play in OT for the series winning goal. Give me a player who rises to the occasion please. Once again, I will take Karlsson on my team any day. And Karlsson is doing all this with a seriously injured groin, he's not even close to 100% and still coming in clutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still need to do something with that opportunity. If they didn't it would be a failure, but they made good on that opportunity. Again, if Vegas had killed the penalty this would be a moot point, but THEY CHOKED!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB5 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 The Canucks still have large holes at all positions Signing Karlsson would mean that this team will not be able to keep all of their good young players so that signing would be a huge mistake. Patience, good drafting and player development are all that is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Kneel Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Hughes looks good for the PK. And maybe Joulevi might add some D help. If we were in contention "maybe" EK but were not there yet (plus injury concerns). I would rather add youngish type forwards like Lee, Dzingle and possibly Ferland. The dark horse is Tryamkin, if Benning can make it so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see Lee leaving the Isles, who should be good with cap space, and I don't see Dzingel leaving Columbus, which is where he went to school I think.

Patience, good drafting and player development are all that is needed. Because signing 1 player means all their good young players won't be signed? That's a bunch of crock. The salary cap will go up every year with increases in revenues. Everybody is overestimating contracts for these kids. Are we gonna give Quinn 12 mill after his ELC? I think not. Pettersson will only get $10 mill + if he is comparable to McDavid. Alot of contracts will be coming off the books soon, so salary concerns aren't an issue yet.

Dzingel was a healthy scratch last night and Tortorella is not going anywhere while Dzingel is a free agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
