But our owner has set the direction to “win now”, so we are trying to create cap space (like the Hamonic and Dickinson yrades) in order to bring in guys wh can help right now: Dermott and Stillman. Stupid yes, but that’s the philosophy. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coryberg Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Lol at Dahliwal saying we would have to add. Myers is a huge upgrade on Zaitsev for only 1.5 million more. I'm pretty sure the Canucks were asking for a pick and prospect as well and that's where it fell off the track. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep bear and that makes sense to trade Myers.Even if one makes it and can play we are a head. OEL and Johansson as a defensive d could be a good pair.We then would only need someone for QH I can't see OEL as a benefit to any pairing - he could have been paired with Orr and made him look like a bum. He wanders around the defensive zone with no damn purpose whatever - Why should he care, he's got a contract that lasts forever with (apparently) a no trade clause that is bulletproof - it looks like we got rid of Eriksson the forward in return for Eriksson the defenceman. Benning could have accomplished the same thing by just extending Eriksson for another seven years with a big bonus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, both were acquired with the Sedins, in mind - based on what, I heard in the radio, that they vouched for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobayashi Maru Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 1 minute ago, -Vintage Canuck- said: We should be able to extract some value from the Leafs. They obviously have the cap due to injuries, and they could easily move 1 year of Myers to another team next year if they didn't retain him for next year too. Time to get something done, and allow OEL and Bear to build chemistry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobayashi Maru Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Leafs are desperate, but we won't get a premium asset out of the deal. Either we get a pick or I am still of the belief that we could try and snag Liljegren. He is past his long bout with mono, improved his defensive game significantly in the last year, and could be an NHL defenseman. If he ends up being a complete bust, then you still saved on the cap by moving Myers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
