Nucker 67 Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I like it, he'll provide some grit in the bottom 6. Local boy comes home and actually does well is my guess. AND he's a right shot C, which is what they need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKSR Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I guess it's better than $3M+ for a 4C? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch_Canuck Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 He can be buried in A with no cap hit. He’s a right handed centre. If he plays well, we have him at low AAV for some term. I don’t see why so many aren’t happy with it. We aren’t in a spot to spend a lot money ? This could be great value in year 2 and 3 or he’s a local product playing in Abbotsford.

He's coming to home to BC. Good PKer and right-handed C. Fills some needs. Hopefully he can bring as much drive to his hometown as Juho did last year. He fills needs. Hes still not as slow as boeser.

Why If Lockwood beats him out at camp he can be on the team. There's still at least 1 W position to fill on the 4th line too, maybe 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst case scenario he plays in the AHL. People are haunted by Benning having to hand out extra years to attract free agents. In this case, it literally doesn't matter. Bury him in the minors, buy him out, put him on waivers.... whatever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't no Jay Beagle, Antoine Roussell have to give up a first round pick to get rid of them type business. I hope it works out but that's still money for the owner to be paying players to not play...i guess Aqua man be making a killing selling condos and townhomes over on the north shore Edited July 13, 2022 by amplified0ne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RakuRaku Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Can anyone explain to me if Lazar offers more than Lammy?? or maybe Lammy was adamant on getting $1.5M+ a year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Excellent deal. Kept the cap below the replacement if sent to Abbotsford. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MunKay Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 (edited) No reason to complain about this signing. Great AVV, and term in this case really doesn’t matter. Perhaps his love for the Canucks will get him to take another step! Good low risk signing. Edited July 13, 2022 by khaira93 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CR7 Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 (edited) At least at 1M we can bury him and not worry about cap implications, if he doesn't work out Edited July 13, 2022 by CR7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Only down side is he takes up a contract spot. Not a big deal. Bury able so I give this signing a big Meh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
