VGK - They just took on Weber's contract, they aren't winning LA - Maybe the best fit, outside of VAN VAN - Not a playoff team yet, but he will play “He will play. You know he’ll play!

Vgk will be better next season than this one and they just barely missed playoffs. I think VAN has the worst chance to land him. Least likely team to make the playoffs out of that group. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flickyoursedin Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 It will be whichever team has the best 2 centers. For him to pad his stats on a big payday next year it makes sense to pick Edmonton. McDavid 123 points this year on one line and Draisaitl 110 points on the other line. Then in terms of wingers in the top 6 there’s not that much there. I’d be really surprised if it isn’t Edmonton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR can trade away Garland, Pearson for help in other areas, like a cheaper 3C. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyClarke Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 I’ve been to Edmonton a few times. Seriously, the only people who could say they like living there have never been outside of Alberta. Even Prince George is a waaay more appealing city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post -DLC- Posted June 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2022 https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/canucks-free-agent-target-kuzmenko-lands-vancouver Canucks free agent target Kuzmenko lands in Vancouver Rob Williams The sun was shining on Andrei Kuzmenko, who arrived in Vancouver on Thursday. The 26-year-old Russian winger is the most highly-coveted free agent not currently in the NHL, and the Vancouver Canucks are a finalist for his services. Kuzmenko has been touring North America, visiting with 4-5 teams according to CHEK’s Rick Dhaliwal. Vancouver is his last stop, with a decision expected next week according to Dhaliwal. Kuzmenko, along with agents Dan Milstein and Vlad Spektor were spotted at Blue Water Cafe in Yaletown Thursday, and will surely be wined and dined at another Aquilini-owned restaurant tonight. Kuzmenko has been spotted in Edmonton, Detroit, Miami, and Vegas since first arriving in Los Angeles from Russia last week. The Oilers apparently met with Kuzmenko at Joey Restaurant in Edmonton. It remains to be seen if Kuzmenko will sign with the Canucks, who can likely guarantee him a top-nine role, if not a top-six role in their lineup right away. Kuzmenko scored 53 points in 45 games last season, which ranked him second in KHL scoring. Jim Rutherford and Patrik Allvin have a great relationship with Kuzmenko’s agent, according to Dhaliwal, and have liked Kuzmenko since back in their Pittsburgh days. Will that be enough to close the deal? We shall soon find out. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
