canucklehead44 Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Myers and Beau coming off the books basically pays their replacements and the raises to FH and EP. We have some short term cap space - but we can’t go out and sign a guy for term. Paying for a with value guy with one year doesn’t make sense since we aren’t even a playoff team. Could we see something like Garland for Kuznetsov? Garland gets Washington close to $3m in cap relief for two years and production wise wasn’t that much lower. This frees up more cap for the Canucks when OEL’s buyout savings becomes less favourable 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BPA Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 OEL contract was bad but let’s be honest. He is not the reason why the Canucks did not make the playoffs last year. Unless they make some amazing moves in the summer, Canucks will miss the playoffs. And probably be the laughing stock in the NHL if OEL signs cheaply elsewhere and rebounds to previous form. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Not sure if Price and Sekeres have the same 'cap hit' numbers as us-they seemed to say the pain would be in 5 years when it is in year 3-4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like this type of idea, short, short term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next season the Canucks currently have over $40 million in cap space with Poolman on LTIR and 9 players signed. That includes OEL’s buyout. Petey and Hronek will take up probably close to 50% of that cap space. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Bear we had a set top 5 and we knew he could play with OEL and Hughes. Without him we have Hronek - but then Myers who we know *didn’t* play well with those two. Lots of need to go shopping this offseason and the cap flexibility opens up way more options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead they doubled down on some 30+ year olds and it feels like we’re sprinting right into a wall. Maybe - hopefully - Allvin works some magic here with the cap space he’s carved out. But if it’s just sign a UFA D and C for likely more than they’re worth it’s not going to go well. Edited June 17, 2023 by ilduce39 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
