I like Poolman at that price. Next for me would be OEL at 3M retained maybe. Adding 4M to the cap. Dickinson for a 5th rounder would save another 3M.

We already allowed Gillis and Benning to cripple the franchise by doing so. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Frankly amazed they got anything of significance back for Hamonic, especially after this season’s shenanigans, and him passing though waivers. Would’ve pegged him somewhere closer to negative value (ie: possibly needing a sweetener to ship out the full weight of his deal). Especially since there’s still a year remaining on that $3M AAV contract. And the Canucks having known cap issues and needing to dump some salary. Thank you, Ottawa! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather use him while he's still a competent top 4 Dman and then try and dump him later then retain that much on him now. The only way retaining that much for that long makes any sense is if we can find someone to fill his role for under 4 million dollars for as long as we're retaining salary, and find that person without giving up anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's getting paid top pair minutes, I think we need a top pair dman. No facsimiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fine with throwing in a small sweetener or taking back a bad contract who might work out better here, but any salary retention is simply not acceptable.

Yeah, and add to that, the Canucks don’t retain any salary for Hamonic. Ottawa takes all of it, AND they send a third to us for taking him? Huh.

I think Juulsen has impressed enough during his 7 games with us that management is comfortable making him our 3rd pairing RHD. Poolman might be on the block. Juulsen will be UFA this offseason. There’s no guarantee he re-signs with the Canucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyGuy123 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 In the end we rely on Demko anyways with the Dermott and Hamonic swap. We saved cap and got younger and more mobile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did we get rid of Hamonic and then get Dermott when Hamonic is bigger, tougher, and got more points production??!! This is an obvious downgrade just to get $1.5M in cap savings!! It’s one of those change of scenery trades that could pan out great if the player gets motivated by this. He’s much more mobile and only 25. This will be his second team so it should be his best opportunity to make something of himself, as soon as you start going on your third, fourth team, you are a journeyman Dman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
