Popular Post JM_ Posted July 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) I think we need to put us in the W column: - top KHL free agent (Kuz) - F huge speed and good size upgrade (Mik) - more 4th line grit in Lazar and maybe Joshua. We might have the deepest F group in our division now. Didn't burn a pick or prospect. I'd call that a win.

DrJockitch Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 We couldn’t do a lot and we did pretty well given our restrictions. ‘Adding Kuz, Mikheiv could really improve the middle 6. Lazar as a tough 4th line C that is good on faceoffs and shoots rights is worth a try. Always like the local guy coming home story, sometimes it even works out. ‘Improved PK was very important. ‘Haven’t been able to move any of our D so no room to really add anyone. ‘Hope they can at least shake up the D a little. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quieted down most of the naysayers too. I don't think they are done, they can now turn to concentrating on trade options around Myers and/or Miller. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't include us in the win column simply because of a few glaring issues still being unresolved: -didn't address the Miller situation -didn't address the RHD situation -didn't create the elusive cap flexibility -didn't get any additional high-end prospects or picks into the system Not saying we lost, but as Dr.J said, we were pretty limited in what we were going to be able to do without unloading some contracts. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunjabiCanucks Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Overall I give us a B? Added forward depth, and a 20G scorer (possibly overpaid but tbd). Defence didnt make any moves or trades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The media there will not get access to any players or team personnel unless they write that all is good and Dubas is wonderful. Mikheyev was their best player in the playoffs. Campbell is a far superior goalie to Murray. Leafs a huge losers and always will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lost Kase and Mikayev today. Their D did not improve, they signed a barely average backup. How the F did they win the day and we lost the day. We got tougher to play against, faster, bigger. F off. Its why we hate the Leafs. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BureBurrito Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Winners Ottawa (should be better this season) Detroit - thought they quietly improved Losers Calgary - still time to pick up or make a trade, but does Tkachuk go as well if he loses his linemate? Undecided Columbus (snagged Johnny Hockey but signed Gudbranson to a long term contract?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Jay 22 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Biggest loser - Calgary. Pretty damning that Johnny G would take a discount to play in COLUMBUS over themselves given last year's standings positions. Not sure if that's an indictment on management, the coach, the city, or all of the above, but that's reputation hit and hockey hit - 2 for 1 special. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The writer clearly doesn't have a clue who Ilya Samsonov is because that was his basis for declaring the Leafs a "winner" in free agency. According to him, the Murray/Samsonov tandem will be better than Campbell/Mrazek. He's in for a cruel dose of reality when he actually sees Samsonov in a game. As for why the Canucks were "losers": guy only said the Canucks didn't move Miller and in his opinion, the Canucks roster is not a playoff team. So yeah, this guy doesn't know WTF he's talking about. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
