Really wanted P Myers, and surprised nobody claimed him. 
 

That said, we’re stuck with what we have. I just hope Poolman has a bounce back year. 

 

Could we even afford him with his 2.55M cap hit? 

 

I'm surprised TB extended him tbh (1.4M), doesn't seem like an organization who would roll the dice on a guy like that.

Just coming to the site to say

" Don't take anything the Canuck org. says about injuries as the truth."

Seems like they are engaging in misinformation, a lot.

Maintenance day- turns into 3-4 weeks.

Dermott's concussion took quite some time to admit to as well.

Edit

Hughes not playing  " We know what he can do" turns into  Hughes has the flu"

Yes, this is very tiresome to see at this point. Either wait before you have the full details or just say the extent of the injuries to what it is.

We would have HAD to put one of the injured players on LTIR (instead of just IR) and then sorted out the cap (make a trade) when those guys got healthy.

 

It would have certainly complicated things. Really, we just need to wait for the inevitable Boeser/Garland ++ trade for a D. 

 

I get the impatience though. We can all PLAINLY see where our roster deficit is, the lack of quality, fit and succession at RD and what is likely going to need to happen (Boeser/Garland++) to fix it. We're all just waiting for that to happen...

anyone that has done anything physical for a living knows there's a difference between being injured and being hurt or banged up. maintenance days are for the the latter.

I wanted Myers too but it wouldn’t be long and people would be bitching about his cap hit too 

Don't worry, there'll always be something to fuss about around here, the fanbase is very good at pivoting

It's not being healthy that made things a bit tight - Boeser/Mikheyev need to be temporarily replaced in the lineup but it looks like Boeser could already be back and Mikheyev is already back practicing.  They would have been cap compliant with Dickinson and Myers has a similar cap hit.  They would have had to waive Stillman though.  Dermott might be LTIR eligible which would help till players are back healthy so they can re-assign the extras.
