Is the Cgy signing official yet?
- dbot


Sounds like it is being finalized now.

I am also hoping Canucks circle back to Leivo. I think he could be a cheapish bottom 6 option. Would also be nice if Canucks could maybe land Haula for a cheap/short term contract.

I think this is realistic, I’d like to see him back as well

I think Seattle will pass on Holtby in the Edraft. So who do we lose?

hopefully a 1a/1b type scenario for year 1, and hopefully a good backup for Demko in year 2. Can't help but feel that he is a very good leader and veteran for Demko.

No doubt. Who better to learn from than both a Vezina and Cup Champion.
Very happy with this.

Que the Barrie 6 X 6 signing...

Goalies who played 20 plus games last year he was 52 of 57 in SV%
47 of 57 in GAA.

8th in Wins.

This is just a Beagle signing but without the added two years.

I would have taken Fluery at half for a 2nd in 2021 for "future considerations"

- manvanfan



my guess is holtby is the only goalie in this situation that was going to concede on term. canucks will likely have $8m+ in goalies for the second year of the deal

Let's wait and see who is on the roster this year, before we worry about who we lose next year.

There was no Fleury for half. Vegas was trying to dump him with no retention with the idea that ANOTHER team would retain the salary and they all the picks.

If he's not any good then he might get Green fired, so it could be a win/win.

I believe in Demko.

I don't think Dipietro will demand that much once Holtby gets taken by Seattle

If we get Barrie and lose tanev, demko will be facing 80 shots a night

Do you regret saying the same thing about the Lou Eriksson contract as well?

Well the deal is done so I just hope that JB can really improve the team defence now.
