The Canucks will need a good RH face off guy that can kill penalties and provide bottom 6 scoring. If Boyd wants to test free agency, then I have no problem at all in bringing Sutter back. We really need to stop paying 4th line players 2 mill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly 1M would be nice but even at 1.5 mill he’d bring good value. Better on FO then most options out there for 4th C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devron Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 He’s a 4th liner. Pay him like one. We need a 4th line center so im good with this 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s good for about 8-9 goals a season which is decent 4th line production if I understand correctly. Aside from that, it’s his face off abilities and PK abilities that will provide a benefit and use for this team. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, but if you're gonna pay any of your fourth liners something in the range of 1.7-2M it may as well be your center. He's effective on the draw, in the defensive zone, and on the PK. Defensive hockey is just as important as scoring goals. Doesn't matter if you've got all the offensive tools in the world if you're constantly giving up goals against. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knucklehead91 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) Sutter on the 4th line C with Dicky, Horvat and Petey ahead of him…. Boys.. and girls!!…this is depth down the middle and a good start to winning more games. Face-off wins = possession Sutter has a decent shot and hands, has the ability to put up 20g on the 3rd line... this could pay off quite well for the club if he comes in at a reasonable cap hit and short term. He’d be a pretty damn strong 4th line C Really hope that he can stay healthy for once. Edited July 28, 2021 by knucklehead91 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure beats paying 3M for a fourth line winger. JB and co have been pretty on the ball lately, here's hoping it carries over to the next few days.

fanfor42 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Re-signing Sutter sounds more like lazy aw shucks why not, than a choice that fits the positive direction this off season has been taking so far. So I'm not for it. Move on please. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting on the Dickinson contract he should get north of 3 million right? Lineup almost set for opening night at forward. Miller-Petersson-Boeser Hoglander-Horvat-Garland Pearson-Dickinson-Podkolzin Motte-Sutter- ????? Lockwood/Highmore/MacEwan/FA battle for the final 4th line spot. Time to turn the attention to the d core once backup goalie is taken care of tomorrow quickly hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude, with a squad this young you need a good PK. It's not all about offence. Signing Sutter for 1 year would be a win as long as it fits under our cap after signing our RFA's. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantum Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Cant build a house without a foundation. He’s returning? What a nightmare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry Goose Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 My only concerns are: Can he stay healthy? He's not really built to play that physical 4th line role. Excellent PKr, but footspeed is an issue. Offense? Suter can kinda sorta chip in but probably not going to get a productive 4th line I hate to say. Also a quality guy no doubt. Teammates seem to love him. If they can somehow get him and Khaira signed on the cheap if be happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
