Ghostsof1915 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) Other than a trade. Erikisson and Baer go to Utica. Benn goes to the Taxi Squad. Hogs stays, one of Rathbone, Rafferty, or Chatfield stays. Unless all three go to Utica or Taxi Squad and we reserve a spot for Hamonic? That's all I can figure. The team as it stands right now is $1.4 million over the limit. Edited January 8, 2021 by Ghostsof1915 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's inconceivable, its so hard for a rookie to even play a few games in the NHL let alone be placed on a 2nd line right off the bat like what? It looks so bad to have dozens of millions of dollars parked away in the bottom 6 (Erikson, Sutter, beagle, jake) how can a team be competitive in today's NHL when half the salary are complete write offs - people all over the NHL should be praising how well Canucks are doing with what they got considering half the salary cap is wasted. wasted? how rude. LE is a character guy He's.never going to give you up let you down run around and desert you make you cry say good bye tell a lie and hurt you. Beagle, or around these parts we call him Mr.BEAGS cute right? what could i tell you about this hunka, hunka, selke nominated, cup winning Man Faceoffs Bing penalty killing Bang dump da puck BOOM!! Sutter formerly known as D Payne sutter has earned every single penny and then some. For the last 5 years, He has been the most influential person in the entire orginization regarding prospect development. it sounds crazy, but its true. more impatful than the captain or coaches if i had to guess, without sutter our prospect pool would be 110 games behind in development I think I made my point pretty clear. Anything Else? PS how is Calgary btw? I Heard great Things about the thai food. Oh, and that ring road, you can drive in a circle around the city, is that true?

Still looks like a good top 4, depending on how long Gio can keep it up? Without it knocking anybody, its a general compliment, Hamonic is also undoubtedly in our top four? It looks, like he will play with Hughes. We will have a top 4D on our 3rd pair. Two, if Juolevi plays up to potential? And Rob Zepp's suggestion... Montreal looks solid, if unspectacular? Very physical. Next best D core to us IMO. I do not like Toronto. Bogosian, who is too slow, the only natural RHD. I think Muzzin & Brodie both play off side? But its a bad recipe. Philly did it for years & was exposed. Wasted the best years of Voracek, Giroux. Getting otherwise good D to look bad playing outside their natural positiion. Winnipeg would have looked very good with Hamonic. Missed opportunity. Will have Heinola in their top 4, and it will look better than as above. Later, Samberg. Gudbrandson never really had a puck mover to rescue him here, Anaheim. He did, and looked good in Florida? Wonder if he will look ok with Chabot, one of the best zone exit / entry guys in the league? If not Ottawa looks in for trouble. Coburn struggled in Philly 6 years ago on his off side. Wonder how he will do again now in his mid 30's... Edmonton has the potential to be ok. Lost year for Klefbom really hurts them. Could have actually been good? Starting with us; Not totally sure what to think on Hamonic. Seen mixed reviews. Some think he'll be exclusively a bottom pair guy, some think he might be able to re-gain some old form. I'm optimistic he can play #4 mins w/ Hughes - and I'm sure they'll try that - but until we see him I'd have Myers ahead on the depth chart myself. Id have the top four defense cores as Montreal, Calgary, Toronto and Vancouver (in no particular order). Then Weber & Hughes are the best 2 defenseman in Canada, with Chabot right in that conversation aswell. Montreal has the former & Jeff Petry is probably Nate Schmidt level. I'm not sure if Chiarot & Edmundson round out their top 4 aswell as Myers/Edler, Tanev/Hanifin, or even TJ Brodie+. But you can't argue against the first 2 guy. And Chiarot was really good last year. In Toronto I think their top 3 of Rielly, Brodie & Muzzin are all really solid. Who the #4 guy is I'm not sure. Where they rank depends on how well Brodie fits in & how good Morgan Rielly can be. (18-19 Rielly or 19-20 Rielly) Your right on Winnipeg - Heinola will be there. I like Heinola alot but he's still a young defenseman being thrust into a big role. Overall their defense is unspectacular outside of Morrissey who is fantastic. Crazy how their defense has deteriorated from just a few years ago. Klefbom is a massive loss for Edmonton, otherwise they would be solid. Calgary on the other hand I still think is very good. Who knows if Giordano will ever be close to Norris level again, but they have really nice depth. All 4 guys you feel comfortable with IMO, then there's some guys behind them like Kylington & Stone. Then Ottawa, poor Ottawa. Chabot is a star but I suspect the rest of the defense will be mixed around as the year goes on. The good news is Jake Sanderson looks great, plus they still have Brannstrom, Jacob Bernard-Docker & Lassi Thomson coming.

Have you even considered the fact that Hoglander might actually be really good. Maybe they should have started Petey on the 4th line. And Green just doesn’t gift people spots, he’s never ever done that. Also... ah nevermind 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure961089 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Taxi Squad Please let players like Beagle and Ericksson and Benn be on the Taxi Squad. Don’t put our young prospects in there. Let them play in Utica. Our Utica team btw is going to be stacked with blue chip prospects.

Bad_BOI_pete Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) just listened to thomas drances Podcast, They were talking about how we will get under the cap and most likely we will sign Hamonic after Game 1. turns out we will have to have waive beagle,baertschi,LE,Motte and roussel opening night, to be cap compliant. For cap administration reasons Rathbone will very likely be on the opening roster. If You're interested I will Post A couple different likely lineups for opening night and game 2 in the ongoing GM proposal thread Edited January 8, 2021 by Petey_BOI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
