Warhippy Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Hall is the outlier. I'd be really interested in him for a year to ensure a top pick like he got for essentially every other team he's played on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ilya Mikheyev Posted October 16, 2020 Author Share Posted October 16, 2020 Quote And the Canucks continue to kick tires on a few bigger-ticket items as well. The Canucks have checked in with Mike Hoffman’s camp, for example, but adding a player like Hoffman is only realistic in the increasingly unlikely event that the Canucks are able to carve out significant salary cap space on the trade market. - Dhaliwal/Drance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grandmaster Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 (edited) https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/2039403 Mike Hoffman, one of the top unrestricted free agents left on the open market, is considering taking a one-year contract, reports Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman. The flat salary cap - as well as the financial repercussions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic - has drastically affected the free-agent market. There are numerous NHL teams up against the salary cap and others who may have internal budgets set by ownership due to the economic uncertainty. Taylor Hall, who was the top free-agent forward, took a one-year, $8-million contract with the Buffalo Sabres - likely with hopes of cashing in next offseason. Hoffman, who led all UFAs in points, may end up taking a similar route. The 30-year-old winger recorded 29 goals and 30 assists in 69 games with the Florida Panthers last season. Since becoming an NHL regular in 2014-15 with the Ottawa Senators, Hoffman has averaged 28 goals per season. Consistent snipers are generally coveted on the open market, but it's worth noting Hoffman's contributions on the ice don't extend far beyond his goal-scoring ability. His five-on-five expected goals for percentage has been below 50% in each of the past five seasons, coming in at 46.3 in 2019-20, according to Natural Stat Trick. HockeyViz's isolated five-on-five impact illustrates Hoffman's lack of play-driving ability over the past four seasons. Plus is good in offensive zone (top row), negative is good in the defensive zone (bottom row) hockeyviz.com Hoffman's former Panthers teammate, Evgenii Dadonov, inked a three-year, $15-million contract with the Senators on Thursday. Florida still has over $11-million in projected cap space, per CapFriendly, so perhaps a reunion is in order. In addition to Hoffman, Mikael Granlund, Anthony Duclair, Andreas Athanasiou, Erik Haula, Sami Vatanen, and Travis Hamonic headline the best remaining available UFAs.

CanuckFan1123 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Man I wish we had the cap space. He’d be a perfect 1 year filler until Podkolzin and Hoglander can step in. Good way to replace Toffoli and I think we would have a much improved offense with him. Don’t think he’d get Taylor Hall money but I could see him doing 1 year at 6.5-7 somewhere.

If we get cap space, use it for one of the many good players from cap strapped teams and pocket the big asset for doing so.

Exactly. This roster is possible if we dump Eriksson with a 1st: Miller Pettersson Virtanen Pearson Horvat Boeser Roussel Gaudette (Granlund/Haula/Grabner) Motte Beagle Sutter Leivo Edler Schmidt Hughes Cernak Juolevi Myers Benn Rafferty Holtby Demko Getting a big mobile stay at home D man at a young age to play with Hughes is easily worth paying a 1st to dump Eriksson.

Where’s the Tampa cap dump? Even without paying Cernak’s $4m-ish they’re still up against it, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
