Thanks for the shout out man, haha. It just makes sense to me. We already have guys like OEL, Hughes, and Rathbone that can move the puck up ice and so we don’t need Myers to be that guy as well. Focus on playing smart high percentage hockey and using your size to dominate. If Myers can be the “ying to the yang” for OEL or Hughes and just play smart, high percentage, physical hockey (ie a more “selective” version of his bubble self that picks his spots better in terms of his aggression), then I think he could fill a far bigger need for us. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a big of a deal has people make it out to be. Rathbone could get sent down initially too if we need to juggle things to avoid waiving other players. Injuries WILL HAPPEN to boot. We are way over thinking this for the most part I’m hearing it’s more complicated. They can send Rathbone down but to bring him back up he’d have to through waivers? Has this been confirmed? In that case I’d keep both and have OJ as the 7th d. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we should go with OEL and Myers and Hughes and Poolman. Then Schenn can play 3rd pairing minutes with Juolevi and they can be our 1st unit penalty killers. Don't think we will find a replacement for Hamonic this late in the game, so Hunt and Rathbone will have to be the 7th and 8th guys. Maybe Woo is in the mix as well at some point. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtman Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 I'm sure Petey and Hughes will be back by the beginning of the season, but if not, I'm completely comfortable icing a lineup comprised of what's currently available. A lot of hungry young players is so nice to see. Every line is buzzing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Dog Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 D pairings as it stands. OEL-Poolman Rathbone-Myers OJ-Schenn/Hunt D pairings as it stands with everyone signed/playing OEL-Poolman Hughes-Hamonic Rathbone-Myers OJ/Schenn Maybe swap Myers/Hamonic and see whos better with Hughes.

As far as a Hamonic replacement goes, I think the Canucks will try and need to find one fast. Poolman shouldn’t be anything more than a 3rd dman while Schenn shouldn’t be anything more than a #7. If I’m Benning, I’d be kicking the tires on Jason Demers. He’s not the sexiest option out there but he should be able to play the ‘stay at home’ role reasonably well. I like Woo but don’t think he’s just quite ready. Demers on a one year “save my NHL career” 700K deal should be a sensible deals for both sides. We can then use that freed up 2.3 million (Hamonic - Demers cap) to sign Petey and Hughes to longer term deals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say 95% of people stayed masked the whole time. Just taking down for eat\drink. Every time someone complained to an usher about someone not wearing a mask, security addressed the situation pretty quick. Was quite canadian. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilduce39 Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Flames didn’t ice much of an NHL squad but we also did that without Petey, Hughes, Demko, Brock, Hoggie, Dickinson or Sutter. (Or Hamonic for what it’s worth). That’s a lot of firepower still out of the lineup. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think its waivers, but rather it's the exponential cap hit we take if he starts in the miners then gets called up other than for injury. I dont know the math, but it is something like the total cap hit spread over the remaining games in the schedule, then annualized. e.g. if he gets called up after 41 games, then effectively his $935k cap hit becomes$1.87M. Or bonuses get added this year. - something like that. Others, more knowledgeable, might know how it works 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others, more knowledgeable, might know how it works I believe it’s based on the presumption we would be using LTIR with the Ferland contract, in which case I believe Rathbone’s salary plus bonuses would be calculated into his cap hit upon recall, regardless of whether he’s hit the bonus markets or not.

Pure961089 Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 And people thought paying a 6’4 RHD in Poolman $2.500,000 dollars a year was Way Too Much. I think he looked really good tbh. A stay at home physical d we really needed. And he skates better than I thought he would. Perfect fit for Rathbone 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post HC20.0 Posted September 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 28, 2021 Just got back home. Gadjovich and Lockwood were fantastic to watch. They each gave 110% out there tonight, and had the building buzzing. Podkolzin was good too. Looked like he fit right in. Garland and OEL were great out there, and the OEL-Poolman pairing was solid. 2 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get too excited it's a pre-season game against an AHL Flames team. But nice start and I feel like he is going to be a key positive addition to this team.
