qwijibo Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 The idea that Depietro could be used as a sweetener to move a bad contract makes no sense. He’s not a NHL goalie and he probably never will be. If he’s moved it’ll likely be a minor leaguer exchange kind of deal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kloubek Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 I was actually wondering why they weren't moving him with Silovs showing well. I'm all for it if it helps restock the cupboards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnAntoski Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Gorton is the GM, that drafted or signed both of the Rags current goaltending tandem. Both have the same stature as Dipietro; and Gorton it seems, is looking to buy low on Dipietro. Would rather keep him to bring up his value, for one more year but if the Canucks, had made up there mind that Svilov, is the player they want to develope - then trade him to a team that wants to develope & play him. I am not sold on Martin but his cheap two year deal, makes a good gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 From a goalie graveyard to a plethora of good goalies, all thanks to Ian to be honest. Demko is 26 now but don't sleep on Martin who is 27 and had some worldly numbers last year (especially advanced stats). Then the middle man is DiPietro who I worry is too small to become a starting goalie. He's very young though but his AHL numbers have kind of stalled and he's never going to get a chance in Vancouver. Silovs is only 21 and put up some massive numbers in Latvia, you just know in around 3-5 years he'll end up being in the NHL and may eventually take the torch from Demko (plus that's a long time to find another backup/future replacement for Demko). Not sure what DiPietro can get us, I doubt he's worth a 2nd round pick, maybe a high 3rd from Montreal? If we can get anything now we should go for it because he's not going to get much better. I would argue there's no rush, is Silovs ready for starting in the AHL? He's very young and got shelled last year so maybe another year as an AHL backup isn't a bad idea, depending on how ready Ian thinks he is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my thought too - that Ian Clarke is one of the best things this organization has going for it. Feels like a few others were in that same category but Benning cut them loose - Brackett, Gilman, (Linden?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilya Mikheyev Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 IMO if you can get anything of value for Mikey, you take it. Seems like a nice guy, but he doesn't look like he'll develop into an NHLer at all IMO. If Allvin gets a pick in the draft for him, I would be stoked.

combover Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 I saw him play when just after he was drafted I couldn’t believe he was listed over 6 foot. he plays small and compact even when he played for the Nucks he looks tiny in net, I was never a fan. Time to move on give him a chance somewhere else we’re set in net for a while. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dipietro only achieved .901 and 2.95gpa himself. That's just a smidge better. But yeah, ok... maybe "well" is a stretch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentSam Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 He was a third round pick, and the Habs have interests in him. Id say he brings a 2nd or hi 3rd pick back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see a prospect swap with someone equally as buried on the depth chart (Josh Brook) or a later pick. But no way he returns a 2nd 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver lining I'd say is that Vancouver have other goalies in the system that have overtaken him. Vancouver has some goalies in the system more than most.

EddieVedder Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Dipietros still young. He had excellent numbers 2 years ago. Hes barely had any game time with the pandemic since. Honestly he could still be an nhler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
