grumpyone Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 or maybe its a trade scenario... Demko plus Meyers or OEL to Ottawa for Zaitsev plus Forsberg ( goes on LTIR and gets knees fixed back for training camp ) plus maybe draft picks thrown in somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screw Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Martin has been horrendous. It’s not a surprise that Silvos will get a shot. Hope the tank continues thoug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they want Silov playing/developing in the AHL then they are the ones that will need to find a backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have a cap to want to dump as he can be completely buried in the minors. He provides depth in the position for the organization, and can help Abby on what could be a good playoff run. Now Delia is our backup up on the big club and Martin is possibly gone. The backup to Silovs will now be Jake Kupsky? He is not even a good ECHL goalie. We would be better off with Delia back down in the minors helping Abby and Martin as our back up for the rest of the year. If there isn't some other move happening that brings in another goalie, this doesn't make much sense.

Look how many times Vancouver have moved back in draft lottery over the years... Not while it's a closed door draft.

I just don’t think this management group is as committed to the tank as we hoped. Probably still trying to sell hope for next season. Gotta push those seasons tickets. You know what will sell tickets for next season? A top 3 pick that can actually step in and play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aznmonk Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Tank will continue... because demko can get some practices in. In real game situation, tocchet told demko if he can't make that save don't push it. Just pretend it's a practice game!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of the big clubs goals they need to do a better job of managing their depth at the AHL level. Delia and Pederson could both be playing for Abby right now without the need for waivers. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Well, I hope Silovs shows well but loses. I'd have preferred to have just left him in Abbotsford where he's been having success. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostsOf1994 Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 25 minutes ago, Elias Pettersson said: Martin hasn’t won a game since forever. You can’t keep him on the roster over Delia. Everyone knows Martin sucks right now. You don’t stick Delia on waivers if he’s earned the right to be on the roster. Some of this tanking stuff is just way over the top and downright silly. Blaming management as well is also silly. Also, 0-10 for Martin whilst Delia numbers are 13gp 11started 7 3 0 1 346 39 3.27 307 .887. Martin will clear waivers and Delia likely won't. Management has some blame though the issues have been an ongoing issue from previous regimes. OEL, BB6, Dickinson, Myers, contracts are JB. not too sure on how JR or PA should face any repercussions or anger for things they did not do. the Boudreau controversy is 100% on management though Tocchet shouldn't get any hate for how that played out, give him a fair amount of time(nucks are doing better) If anyone deserves a chance it is Silovs, drafted, moved half way around the world, developed in to a solid G prospect. I'm sure Delia & Martin work their moneymaker as hard as anyone, much rather to promote from within if there is a player in the pipeline before UFA or trades (NHL back up / AHL starters) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24K PureCool Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 If they throw Demko in at this point then it is a shoe in that he is getting traded at the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
