They are sitting in the press box like Jalen Chatfield. Also, we are talking about the best team in hockey. Schenn is fine as a 6 guy on a team like the Canucks. We don't have a Sergachev/Savard 3rd pairing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilduce39 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I would think this is as a 7/8 guy.. minimal AAV but gets 2 years for a little security? That would be awesome. He’s shockingly only 31 and brings a bit of muscle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schenn played in 38 regular season games. He also played in 8 playoff games. He might not have played in the final but he did contribute in some way to the Stanley Cup Champs. To suggest he's a 7/8 on every team is false. Not every team has Sergachev and Savard as a 3rd pairing. He would be fine playing with Juolevi/Rtahbone. I think that's a weak 3rd pairing but time will tell. With injuries, it's a great third pairing. Infact, fantastic. Opening night, I think it shows a lack of depth.

Popular Post Devron Posted July 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 27, 2021 This guy man. Loved him for those few games he played here. 7 or 8th guy. 750k yes please 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilduce39 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 FWIW I’d bet this has nothing to do with the club trying to bring back Hamonic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamonic appears to be close. Hope that clarifies, hah. Anyway his agent said this morning (or yesterday?) that he likes Van and they want him back want and negotiations have gone quite well.

Popular Post nuck-lifer Posted July 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 27, 2021 Was sad when Schenn left. Great inexpensive add if true. I thought he played the perfect role with Hughes although he will slot in with Juolevi or Rathbone. Not a great skater but positioning was very good and wont take crap from anyone. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a top 6 defender so there better be more moves coming. 1 year, 2 years doesn’t matter. You still have to pay someone at least that amount. He can get sent down, waivers whatever.

Yea bad man..... 100% accurate but compare our team to the best not lower 1/3. Never get better if we pride ourselves on "at least we aren't Edmonton".

If he gets it, terrific I'm happy for him. there has to be another RHD coming as Luke only plays 10 mins per night now. I was referring to Hakanpaa. I was hoping for somewhere around $3-$3.5m but that Oleksiak deal SEA handed out... Hamonic should be around $2.5, maybe $3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's debatable but he could be a top pairing Dman in Toronto. They probably called him and he hung up the phone... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and hopefully not the +/-$4.5 range Oleksiak got. I'd probably do $3.5 if we're moving Schmidt but $4 is starting to get sketchy IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWJC Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 9 minutes ago, kloubek said: We were all pretty happy with Schenn's short stint here. He certainly adds the physical element we need back there. And from the sounds of it, the price would be right from a depth perspective alone. But really, this talk of Hughes and Schenn together isn't an ideal scenario to me. It'll work, but he really needs a stud like Larsson or Savard to get full offensive value out of him imo. (Which it looks like we can't afford without moving more money out) The major problem is the speed difference between QH and Schenn. That presence was great for QH but in terms of the O play I think there was always the onus on QH while roaming or setting up in the zone, to ensure he didn’t leave Schenn outnumbered on a turnover because if he did, he couldn’t count on Schenn’s foot speed to minimize positional chances. I think that’s why we need someone with better acceleration and turning than Schenn for that role. It’s too bad because he’s a great throwback Dman but is an ideal bottom pairing backfill/7th man. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
