kanucks25 Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I like the player in a vacuum. I think the elements he brings are elements we sorely lack. But this is a typical UFA overpayment, not a value contract. So he does fill a need but hard to say if he provides value overall. If we are able to dump Pearson's salary and replace it with this, it's palatable. If we dump Garland for cheap instead to accommodate this, then it's ridiculous.

Kobayashi Maru Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 4 minutes ago, DownUndaCanuck said: Got to flip Garland now, I hope we don't lose Pearson because he's perfect for the 3rd line whereas Mikheyev slots right into our middle 6, depending on how well Kuzmenko and Podkolzin play. Right now I'd argue we have the best offensive depth in the division. Weakest RD depth though, but lots to change surely. Pettersson - Miller - Mikheyev Kuzmenko - Horvat - Boeser Pearson - Dickinson - Garland Lockwood - Lazar - Podkolzin That's how we lineup right now. Need to fix that 3C and flip a forward for a defenceman. Definitely looks like a very deep lineup. If Miller stays, then Pearson and Garland need to go as Podkolzin won't be a 4th liner and Hoglander still needs to be in the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Brock and Petey enter the zone like they’re hitting an invisible wall… Like the trades you’ve proposed though! Exactly. You cant put Boeser with petey.

That would be a fine deal if we can get an ok return for Garland. Like for Marino… then we have sorted a couple of issues out. I like Garland but essentially Garland out, Mikheyev and Marino in would be a solid day of work by PA, especially if there wasn’t a cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One time I was standing beside him (at a urinal ) … the guy was maybe 5’6”, and even then I’d he was wearing skates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he averages 18-22 for us I would call it a win. I would agree with this if he is providing something as well as 20ish goal scorer. A strong tenacious forecheck, drawing penalties like Garland, solid PK. ‘If he can provide some other asset especially PK then absolutely fair price for 20ish scorer. Haven’t really watched him close enough for me to what else he brings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baratheon Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 There's more than one option out there. Move Pearson and keep Garland. Roll with quite a bit of speed and likely generate a good amount of chances. I don't mind this. Quite a few guys on our team can finish. Move Garland and/or Pearson for help on D OR for assets that set us up to make moves at either TDL or next years off-season. It's a pricy contract but you're buying more than just the player. You're buying flexibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Bo must be so glad right now, finally he doesn't have to play with plugs anymore. Management have gone out and got him a KHL star, Podkolzin who's only getting better and now Mikheyev. No more scraps, I expect a big offensive year for Bo. That being said we need a defensive 3C to take that role from Bo. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
