why would he retire? gives up real $ if he does that...something like $3.6M still owed, if I read capfriendly correctly...

I wonder if Dim Jim is trolling Freidman? A little payback.

Psst Hey buddy go tell Elliot it is a four year deal we can have some fun.

I just remembered Eriksson.

Just telling you what some guys like Bob Mac and Puck Daddy were talking about last night.

It wouldn’t make him very Dim if he was trolling Elliot.

Keep in mind for Luongo to continue on with a charade that he is injured for three years his total salary will be 3.6 mil combined. Maybe he might just say foget abood it.

I actually like Elliot.

fair enough. I get the emotional attraction of retirement vs LTIR, just think that the wives & agents would be arguing against giving up a guaranteed $3.5M.

given his health, I don't think it would be a charade. Maybe he will just toss it anyway.

regardless, the $3M cap hit won't cripple the Canucks, though obviously it limits them somewhat in they can do with UFAs / trades. As you frequently point out, they are in a terrific position vs the cap, especially if it only goes to $81.5M.

I think you still have to be actually injured. Insurance company’s won’t put up with that sh!t.

Zegras there at 7 though?

Are the Oilers really willing to trade JP for a 3rd line player? Hell i'd give them 2 of them.
- golfingsince

Gagner at .40 and Kassian at .33 ppg are Edmonton 5th and 6th scoring forwards.

Eriksson and Virtanen were .36 and 10th and 11th on the canucks last season.

You are right, Van could give them two plus Hutton and they can add Matt Benning. Fill out that right side D.

Zegras there at 7 though?
- VanHockeyGuy

Rumour is Detroit wants Zegras.

Maybe that's the deal if Zegras is still there at 7. Van takes Bogo's last year and moves up 3 places.

I'm so damn conflicted about what's going to happen tomorrow. I feel like it's going to be exactly like last season where i'm going to really hate the pick but be fine with it.

How would taking Bogos contract justify moving up 3 spots?

History tells us Miller had one good offensive year. 40 points. Big woop. If he's slow, he's slow. Move on.

I think you misunderstood, I was talking about bogo and Benning targeting players with no upside.

That's possibly what was discussed when there was a rumour that Van and Buf were talking about D.

Do you think the return should be larger? Buffalo isn't in cap hell or anything, they don't need to get rid of Bogo's contract.
