ShawnAntoski Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, NUCKER67 said: True, Allvin is a new GM with a new team, under the veteran Rutherford. He might be very careful about any moves he makes. JR has an open approach to his managers, everyone's opinion matters, and should speak up, and I wonder if this will cause roadblocks making some moves, difference of opinions. I think VAN will become a contender a lot faster than MTL. They're a real mess. With the Habs & Gorton - we only have what he did with the Rangers, as reference and what Drury, inherited from his regime. Imo, Gorton is somewhat similar to Sakic - they are both reluctant to trade there 1st vs what JR & crew did in Pittsburgh. Ofcourse, the context of wanting to support a still competitive, Crosby core has to be acknowledge - but there drafting past the first round (which they didn't have most years) was comparable to Gillis or atrocious. They said, all the right things, in there pressers and on a more recent, interview with JR: HE CONFIRMED A(NOTHER) RE TOOL, IS COMING; and I get it cause there are already some good pieces, on the roster. I ask again, given there past history with there clubs and can't ignore JRs' resume: which team becomes a contender first - the Habs with there rebuild, during TWO DEEP DRAFTS or the Canucks' re tool ? JR has a great resume and with it, I am willing to give the new crew some slack but I am also, expecting a lot. Cautiously optimistic, Allvin can deliver.

They're a long shot any way you spin it, and if we hold on to high value assets and miss that's just another season they've missed out on the playoffs with a fringe playoff team. It'd be one more season Horvat and Miller miss out as Canucks, and one season closer to them being ufa's. If you want to keep Horvat, and I think he's the guy to retain, show him you're serious about making the team better in the long term by making the hard choices needed to bolster other areas of the roster. At some point the cycle of mediocrity has to be broken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 If that’s the return for Toffoli who’s having a crappy year then Miller better fetch us Lafreniere Schneider ++ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calgary will trade him, when they start to regress, in the next year or so. Lots of important FA's, coming due on there roster with little cap. Canucks should trade, for there first next year - Pearson for next year's first ? Edited February 14, 2022 by ShawnAntoski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 It's a little ironic that all three guys, Tofu, Tanman, Marky, that Benning gets crucified for letting walk all ended up on Calgary. I sense Calgary going on a playoff run this year. I hope I'm wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, part of the reason why Tofu got so much is probably because he can be easily flipped to another team next season to recoup assets back for the Flames. Miller probably won't be flipped again so maybe we won't get as much as we think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But really my hatred for the Leafs, Oilers, Flames always comes through. Yip, even as I type, F the Flames. Lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grouse747 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 one big difference between Toffoli and Miller.......
