Captain Canuck #12 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Would Tryamkin be a Tocchet-type player or what??! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Because RikTok wouldn't tolerate a guy coming into camp out of shape and refusing to play in the minors. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. He had no foot speed then and has less Foote speed now. The Canucks don’t need/want TreeBeard. (That’s what some of us vets used to call him) Old and slow. Just stop this nonsense about Tryamkin coming to the Canucks. He wasn’t good then and is gonna be worse now. Just stop. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShawnAntoski Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 (edited) Trym has been teasing us fans for a long while now and I suggest, that he stays in the KHL & stops trolling us. Edited February 28, 2023 by ShawnAntoski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHL97OneTimer Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 I have no interest in seeing projects coming on to this team on the D end. If there's any future for this club, it will rely on us landing (through draft or otherwise) bonafide top 4 D players. While this team currently sucks, we can make do with low-cost D players that come and go but we need cap space (and roster space) for high-end D. If we don't have them, we need to suck for longer. I want a cup, not a playoff team. We're stuck with OEL, but we can deal Myers this summer. I believe JR and PA are now FINALLY starting to implement this strategy as they unload some players. So.....a big NO to the Tree. Best of luck to him but his time to shine for the Canucks was a number of years ago and they're now both on different journeys.

Just so you are aware, Tryamkin had a European assignment clause in his contract with the Canucks. This was agreed by NT and JB, and it means that if the Canucks wanted to send NT to the minors to ride the bus and earn $70k in salary, then he had the option of playing in Europe instead. You can hardly blame Tryamkin for refusing to go the minors when he had agreed a contract with JB to specifically avoid playing in the minors. The blame falls on JB for putting the Euro clause into the contract. It is akin to saying that a player is a bad person for not waiving a NMC in their contract. If you don't want to honour the contract, don't put stupid clauses in it! 1 1 1 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn’t he make the NHL, as a regular? Tryamkin is too slow for the NHL. Full stop. Anyone that wants him on the team is living in a fantasy world. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't have watched him play in Vancouver, because he was always fast and agile. That was actually his strength. A lot more than his fighting ability, which is more legend than reality. He also hit guys really f*cking hard and made quite a lot of hits. Why didn't he become a regular NHL player? Well, because he decided to move back to Russia. It certainly wasn't because the team didn't offer him a contract. And certainly not because he was too slow for the NHL. I think it's unlikely Tryamkin comes back to VAN. I think the management team here was not honourable and I think they did a really bad job at communicating with him which left a sour taste in his mouth, and if he chooses to return to the NHL it will probably be with another team. However, it wouldn't be "living in a fantasy world"...should he wish to return to VAN, I think the current management would be interested in seeing what he can bring and we have some open spots next season. When I look at how well JR and PA have done bringing someone like Kuz to North America and the growing group of Russians on the team and coaching staff, I think they could make it work. The bigger question is - has NT missed too much time in the NHL to come back and be effective? The only way for anyone to know is for him to try. I mean Kuz is 27 years old and never played an NHL game in his life before this season. Playing for many years in the KHL has not been a bad thing for him and the transition was seamless. Dmen are different, but they also hit their prime later, so it would be interesting to see if a 28 year old Tryamkin resume an NHL career successfully now. I'd say the ball is in his court.

I watched him. From his years in the KHL and then his 2 years with the Canucks. He was a shit ‘defender’. He was also a shit offensive producer. Fair enough, I didn’t expect him to be an offensive producer, but he was terrible defensively. Tell me I’m wrong. Please. Please tell me I’m wrong about Tryamkin’s shit defensive aptitude. Tryamkin was shit when he came over to the Canucks. He was a negative player. He’d be even worse now, almost a decade later. He’s old now and slower than before and can’t keep up with the modern NHL game. Anyone that tells you differently, is an abject idiot. I hope another team signs him. He doesn’t have the heart/will/skill/speed to be in the NHL anymore. Edited February 28, 2023 by Sharpshooter 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
