Makaramel MacKhiato Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Never thought about New Jersey or Washington. New Jersey definitely needs a goalie. They'd be a team we could get a decent pick from. I guess Washington just lost Vanecek and Lundqvist. Holtby could be a nice welcome back 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyotasfan Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Holtby seemed to be getting better towards the end of the season , there wasn’t much help from anywhere, it was a bad year all around. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentSam Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 There might be other teams interested in Holtby that we’re holding back.. Holtby did have a good year with us,. And there are a few teams struggling in that position. This could turn out well for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MystifyNCrucify Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 All smiles and unicorn farts, you know, until you think of the possibility that demko gets injured for a month. Who is left for ufa goalies to sign? Does benning think dipietro is ready? Didnt we go through that gong show already, when both markstrom and demko went down at the same time? better be getting something a helluva lot shinier than some other teams failed projects if you are resting your season on the hope that a canuck doesnt get injured. Didnt demko get injured last year as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The buyout on Holtby gives us a cap hit of $500,000 this year and $1.9 mil next year so if we retain any salary it needs to beat that. Retaining 1M would barely help us at all compared to a buyout. Except we wouldn't have his cap hit for an extra season. I'd try to avoid that at all costs. I think a buyout would only make sense if there's something lined up that adds a great piece to our backend (and requires Holtby's money to do it). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post PhillipBlunt Posted July 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 26, 2021 While I’m fine with Holtby generating a return of a pick, I don’t blame him for the Canucks defensively woes or goals against. That’s on Nolan BumGardener. Pure and simple. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just keep Holtby, it's good insurance and his contract is done this year anyways. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Defence on the other hand. Count all the beans and add them up, there is a difference between playing well or not in a position so highly affected by another positions errors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 If the offer is on the table and the retention isn't 50%, take the offer off the table. Bring it home. Sign it. Then bring it back. Or are they waiting to see if they can sign a replacement before pulling the trigger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
