EdgarM Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Finally! we can put the Ericksson and Baertchi are legit NHLers to bed. No ill will towards them and I wish them luck. Oh and by the way, Trump is not a legit President either. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appleboy Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Interesting look to this years team. One of the better D's in a long time ,I think. Hoglander doesn't surprise any of us who have been following him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they could keep Benn on the 23 man roster and put Rathbone on the taxi squad without waivers, while still treating him as higher on the depth chart. Lots of intrigue here (if you don't have anything better to do). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF it works out and he can regain his form, it gives us another option to backup Demko, if we lose Holtby to the Seattle expansion draft in the summer. He plays for the Islanders........

Popular Post Nucker 67 Posted January 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 11, 2021 Thrilled with the way the roster is shaping up, better than I thought it would. Adding Hoglander up front and Hamonic, Juolevi, Schmidt and possibly Rathbone on D. And then a previous Jennings, Vezina and Cup winner in goal? Wow. The Canucks will have a very good team this year. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see us take a flyer on Schneider at league minimum and see if he can get his career back on track. Pretty sure he plays for the Islanders. We could probably use another goalie though. Wonder if they consider someone on waivers. 2 hours ago, -Vintage Canuck- said: Nice to see the league helping us out again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skategal Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 https://vancouversun.com/sports/hockey/nhl/vancouver-canucks/patrick-johnston-a-grab-bag-of-2020-21-canucks-cap-considerations Total article is longer and covers a number of players, thought this piece was particularly interesting. I was struck by how many factors come into play in cap management. Rathbone’s bonuses Because he’s on an entry-level contract, Jack Rathbone could earn up to $850,000 in Schedule A bonuses this season. Because of how the salary cap rules work, if the Canucks want to use him at all this season, there’s a strong case for him being on the NHL roster on day one, even if the plan is for him to first get some AHL action when that league starts. (The current plan is for the AHL to start in February.) If he’s on the Canucks’ roster when the season starts and the Canucks are at the salary cap limit, his bonuses will be counted as part of a “bonus cushion,” which is an allowance for players with performance bonuses in the contracts — basically entry level players like Rathbone, Elias Pettersson and Quinn Hughes, or players who sign contracts when they’re over the age of 35 — to actually exceed the salary cap limit by up to seven per cent in aggregate. If the Canucks do start the season at the limit, nearly the totality of their performance bonuses due to any player on the NHL roster on day one won’t be calculated as part of their regular cap hit. That will be a calculation for another day, with a penalty likely applied to the 2021-22 season. (That’s unlikely, since it’s certain that they’ll start the season with a salary structure built to shunt as much of Micheal Ferland’s $3.5 million cap hit on to the long term injured reserve exemption list as possible.) If Rathbone starts the season on the NHL roster, his cap hit will be $925,000. If he were to start in the minors on day one, though, his potential performance bonuses wouldn’t be counted towards the bonus cushion and his cap hit would be considered nearly $1.5 million, the potential average annual value of his contract if he were to hit on his maximum bonuses both this season and the next. Confused yet? The long and short answer is it does seem almost certain that Rathbone will spend day one on the Canucks’ NHL roster. Whether he stays for day two seems much less likely. And, yes, like DiPietro, he could conceivably be loaned to a Canadian AHL squad, though there are fewer gaps to fill on rival bluelines compared to the two obvious above-mentioned goalie holes. So if Rathbone does start on the NHL roster to start the season but Brogan Rafferty and Jalen Chatfield do not, don’t be alarmed, there’s a good chance it’s all about keeping his cap hit manageable for a future recall, nothing more than that.

Popular Post Nucker 67 Posted January 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 11, 2021 Speaking of toughness, adding Hamonic should be a nice boost, in addition to Gaud and Jake, who seem a bit feisty this year. Big Mac too. And always nice to have a giant (Myers) on D. Losing Tanev and Stecher certainly wasn't a big loss physically. Then in early May adding Podkolzin! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
