Also the numbers flip if you take the last 3 seasons, as is common practice these days when looking back at a player's numbers. e/ Saad is also coming off a strong playoffs. Saad might be the better player... but not 25% more money and 40% more term better. Yes you can change the numbers but I find recent stats to be more relevant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Pearson can have a season closer to the one he had two seasons ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Podz19 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Never been particularly impressed with him but after looking at his stats he’s a pretty consistent 20 goal / 0.5 ppg game player. Just never seen him as a play driver but i guess you need support players too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlastPast Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Wait a second; I thought the Canucks were stupid for signing Pearson as they did because of all the incredible bargains that were inevitably going to be available in the UFA market? Where are these bargains? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking at the available UFA left and saw Saad still hadn't signed yet. Would have loved it if we could have gotten him for $4M. It would have been a tight squeeze to fit him in. Also depends on getting EP and QH on bridge contracts. Maybe run a 21-22 roster instead of 23. Could really mix and match the forward lines. And bump Motte to 4th. Oh well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertuzzipunch Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Really wanted saad on the canucks. Didn't think wed ever trade for garland tbh which now im so glad it went this way instead. nice to see him getting paid and not overpaid like he has been.
