Rittich is absolute trash. Mikey's not ready tho. Just trying to figure out who to target if we do move on from Holtby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, he could backup Demko, and still get extra starts in Abby. When he’s in Abby, then Rittich (or any other guy) could sit on the bench and watch Demko win games. Waivers exempt for DiPietro.

He can be recalled whenever the baby nucks have a break even if just to practice with NHLers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree he's not ready, but we're better off with an overpriced backup over a guy who's proven himself to not be good enough for the NHL. As much as I want Holtby off the books, No Save Dave would be a serious handicap that should be avoided at all costs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanacek from Seattle would be a great acquisition and he only makes 725k. Not sure what it would cost or if Seattle even wants to trade him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he is, probably on his own already. I do wonder if Hogberg is worth the gamble, for a while there some thought he might turn out like Demko.

He has Pettersson and a couple swedish twins in the hood so he should be energized! If he can produced 40+ points without a ton of PP1 time and take care of the other teams top lines reasonably well he's worth 7M for the next few years. Garland is the icing on the cake though IMO as he solidifies our forward group now. Now move Schimdt and Holtby, spend some cash on some RHD's and I think we are finally ready to be taken seriously. That is perfectly said. Right on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller Hoglander Pearson Boeser Garland Podkolzin I think the obvious holes that need to be filled are one more bottom 6 center, and one more defensive RH (Two if Schmidt is moved). Do you think they liked what they saw in Graovac? Edited July 25, 2021 by CanucksJay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clark doesn’t want any goalie who isn’t willing to be the hardest working guy on the team. That’s why he is high on DiPietro and Silovs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually don't think he's as far away as some think. That said, I'd like to see a backup in the 1 to 1.5 million per year range, who we can bury in Abbotsford if Mikey really shows up in camp. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly Schneider is done. The injuries have become too much. You’d end up just having to replace him at some point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
