Gaudette Celly Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 6 minutes ago, Maniwaki Canuck said: About the cap implications of this deal: don't we just need to paper Petterson, Hughes and Demko (who is showing up as waiver exempt on Capfriendly) down on opening day to make room for Roussel before putting him on LTIR? Their combined salaries essentially equal his, namely 3 million. Add that to the 5 million of cap space we've got on a 24 man roster, and another 1 million saved when we bring that down to 23 and we end up with around 9 million in cap space to sign Brock and Goldie. There really isn't a problem until Roussel gets back, like people have been saying. Am I missing anything here? Shush you and your analysis and thinking planning stuff. RickyD said they have to move bodies or they can't sign Boeser; said Canucks told him so. Better call Minny back about Zucker. Shoulda never fired Gilman. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 2 minutes ago, 73 Percent said: The ones that created trouble were. Kesler Edler Hamhuis Yeah but those are your best players. They got those for signing under market value. (in Kesler & Hamhuis case especially, well under). Hamhuis was willing to waive they just dropped the ball. Eriksson got a full protection 4/6 years from Benning, at market value, and that's causing trouble. Miller got a NTC too to only 5 teams. Its the price you pay when your buying UFA years, giving out clauses of some kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been killed for lack of depth in recent years after pretty consistently getting off to good starts. Not only do we have a way better opening day lineup, but a lot of decent replacements waiting in the wings. This year, things are going to be different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 3 minutes ago, N7Nucks said: The players worth anything had full NTCs. Kesler, Lu and even Hammer if I recall all only gave us two teams each that we could move them too. These NTCs are much easier to move if need be. Best players got them in exchange for taking less so we could build a better team. Which worked. Sure these ones are 'better', but its still giving out NTC's/NMC's in buying UFA years. The players aren't as good as our old core was. And the contract's they signed aren't as good, they haven't been taking less in the process while still getting some protection.

Popular Post 18W-40C-6W Posted July 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) 9 minutes ago, Maniwaki Canuck said: Absolutely: a whole new mentality coming to our forward group. Gonna be fun to watch. This is what I love about this signing - whole new mentality. Players like this make everyone play bigger. He’s going to bring the best out of Jake, Petey and Boeser won’t have to worry, guys will back each other up more, hell, he’s going to even show Tryamkin that playing with that edge matters. this team has the best mix of skill, speed, toughness and size I have seen in my 30 years as a Canucks fan. And seeing us bring in a guy who has the tenacity of old #12 makes me ecstatic! Those guys can change the outcome of a game through their intensity. We’ve missed that for a long time.

CanucksJay Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Maybe Im out of touch after seeing NBA free agency crazy but does Ferland's contract seem a bit low? I had expected him to sign for a lot higher? Did his stock drop for some reason or is this in line with what people were thinking? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
