You play Hughes to his strength at this point of his career.

I get a feeling that Tanev is coming back anyways.

I think he’s a poor defender. He needs to be sheltered to be effective.

Would rather have Tanev back for less dollars and term. From what I’ve read, Barrie is looking for term and dollars, he’s looking for financial security.

He said he'd be open to a 1yd

After day 1 of UFA frenzy ends the bigger signings/trades will roll in imo. OEL isn’t dead yet.

I think Holtby has a resurgence under Ian Clark and can help shoulder the load. He’s only a year older than Marky.
Edit: 3.5 months older

- Shuswap Wap

3.5 months older. basically the same age.

i hope he does too. miller aged well here so old dogs can learn new tricks it appears. i just think if they are grooming demko for a #1 spot hell play a lot of games in the condensed season and hopefully the shot volume isnt taxing

Give him 2yrs. He needs to transition into the pros & season up.

Shade under 10M in cap space with 5 players to be signed by Nucks with GAudette and Virtanen RFA

included in that 10 is the demotion of Baertschi and Ericsson to minors to save 1.075

- manvanfan


Ferland will be LTIR and the hammer on LE will go down to clear more to sign the RFA's.

No. He’s also far from a lock to become a legit NHL dman. We’ll see how he does against men first(AHL or Europe).

It’s faster for high end prospects, that’s why 1st rounded are treated like gold.

Yes & no. If Jett has a great pro audition he might be sooner but a big IF still.

The prices gotta come down, think we will see spread out movement over the next few days.

Exactly but I’m high on him being at least a solid bottom pairing with top 4 upside.

I was pretty annoyed when Nashville took Luke Prokop in the 3rd round of the draft.

Holtby was on Snet top 10 list the top 10 will all have 31 teams calling, with no prep work, will take a few hours/days to get deals done.

EDIT: Holtby was #7 and Barrie is #4 on their list.

18 teams with under 10 M in cap space and only Pitt has a current 23 man roster.

The teams with more space have from 13-15 players signed that's it.

No pro games yet. A less than progressive season last year. So no.
