Motte 3 X 2.5 million ---- Have to start getting returns of UFA and not letting them walk example recent Markstrom and Tanev... Lockwood next season $842,000 will b fine on the 4th line..Lots off speed and gritty... Remember we need cap space.. Yeah, time to stop the bleeding: of letting our FA's walk for nothing. Would hate to see him go cause that 4th line would really look good, if kept intact for a few more years.

Yeah I agree hate to see Motte go with speed but that's why new management team need to find more gems...Remember when we trade for Motte..He was the surprise player at following training camp..He never looks back..Now we need asset back for Motte 27... Lockwood 23, 5'11should fill the spot with his speed next season.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is currently under contract at 750,000 RFA this summer..I could see Canucks signing him for like 2 yrs X 1.1 million.. These are the type off deals we must sigh for cap space along with Highmore.. Also sign Highmore this summer.. Highmore 26, 5'11 speed 2 yrs X 1.1 million... Both Lammikko 26 and Highmore can play up in the line up if needed.. Very valuable players in cap world...Need valuable players making less then 1.5 million...Alos level entry contracts are valuable... Lockwood 23, 5'11 with fill 4th line next season and he has speed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, as well, that it is time to give Lockwood a shot and I would also, like to see Juulsen get a legit shot before his FA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say we might get a 2nd or 3rd rounder and young prospect under 23 for Motte...I like Juulsen 6'2, 205lbs, 23, RD He missed lots of games over past 2 yrs.. I think he will be surprise D man and take #6 spot next season... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, would prefer he gets a shot but the playoff chase, will mean Hunt gets the minutes and it is very understandable: veteran vs unproven. Anyways, I am not sold on Marino and the Schmidt debacle proves there is no guarantee an acquired player, will play well in the Canucks roster.

86Viking Posted March 22, 2022 Author Share Posted March 22, 2022 You will be missed Motte, maybe the team can clear some space and make you an offer this summer...unlikely though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about him willing to sign for what he's worth, as we can no longer overpay 4th line players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beefcake Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 If the previous management team hadn't overpaid for many of the players on the roster right now we might have been able to resign Motte. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanfor42 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Motte was worth a 4th on the open market. He wanted a big raise that thankfully the new management would not go for. Next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sativika Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 "Tyler Motte, do we really need him??" Apparently not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Nice stat line, 3 hits 4 blocked shots, 100% faceoffs and an even +/- in a game NYR let in 7 goals. I bet he's going to score some clutch playoff goals for that team, resign there and become a fan hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86Viking Posted July 12, 2022 Author Share Posted July 12, 2022 Motte carried the 4th line, hope he cashes in but doesn't play in our division. Doubtful but maybe we circle back to Motte if he is available a couple days into free agency? Hate seeing Dickinson and Pearson here and Not Motte, Motte was a great PKer and was missed after he got dealt. Oh well, many other CDC fans had their Burrows love and mega long thread, this is my Motte thread with just me basically haha! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronic.Canuck Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Would be happy to have him back. If he could stay healthy a full season I'd say he was worth something like 3 x 2M but he misses a lot of time which will hurt him in contract negotiations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tas Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 not a lot of room around the league for bottom of the lineup guys looking for raises. if motte is humbled by the offers, maybe he comes back around out of familiarity and comfort. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksJay Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 If Motte is getting low balled around the league, we should bring him back. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCNate Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I'd bring him in at 1x1.5. I don't think PA will go much higher for a 4th liner, as good as he may be. We have to make a bunch of moves before we get to tt point though, hopefully Mott elands something better out east in the mean time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobayashi Maru Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Maybe we can give Motte the Lazar contract of 3 years x 1M. Only really room if Pearson, Dickinson and other forwards are moving out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 We've already got too many forwards as is, I like Motte but the only remaining forward we need to add is a legitimate 3C. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Motte is not what we need. To play how he needs to be effective he gets injured. He is going to have to take a pretty cheap deal somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
