He's playing like a top D, can't imagine he won't get paid like one. Who's the contract comparable for Hughes?

At the end of this season Makar. Heiskanen also.


Might be able to use Torey Krug as a long term deal. 7 x 6.5M

Interesting read in the ELC bonuses etc.

Read that this morning, amazing how bonuses are paid on points performance for a defenceman, but defending doesn't matter...

Jackson Kunz got into a fight. Not too sure he does it too often but he's got good size.

Ya those are some solid choices. I was thinking Theodore too. Maybe Klingberg.

It does not shock me that you and woofy have the same taste in music, birds of truck nut
- neem55

Wanna compare music collections? How much that mine is just a tad more diverse than yours?

Yup.
What i got out of this, which is contrary to what some posters are saying, is this point posted below.

As for Hughes having a tough two weeks? Every game since the Maple Leafs arrived in Vancouver has seen the Canucks badly outshot with Hughes on the ice.

That means he’s playing at the wrong end of the ice.

Ooh i can make assumptions based on absolutely no knowledge too. I bet you drive a red truck.

To answer your question, id have to say my favorite music right now is indie pop. Went through my punk/hiphop/metal/dad rock phases. Only thing I don’t like is country. Record player last night: MF Doom, STRFKR, paul simon, nofx, lana del ray, roy orbison

Halfway through Hughes 1st season, many on here wanted to give Hughes 10 million a year, after about 40 games into his career.
- Reubenkincade


I don’t think that’s true. Lots here hypothesized that it was possible that Hughes and Pettersson could earn as much as $10n on their next contract, but I don’t believe there was even a single person who “wanted” to pay them that much.

I stand corrected, hypothesized is a much better term.
On occasion, I might get something wrong.😁

They were rolling but have hit some speed bumps now. Maybe not the generational superstars they were turning out to be. Just very elite players.

I think hughes makes over 6, i agree I don’t remember anyone think he’s worth 10. I think his contract is going to look like Boesers

Did you read to the end? Would Price be made available for the expansion draft, and would Seattle actually pick up that contract? Perhaps they would be looking at MAF as the example...

Canucks should claim Travis Boyd on waivers and trade Beagle and Suter

The way Boeser is playing he is going to be looking for 6.5-7.5 per season on a long term deal.

Without getting into a debate about the use of certain words, yes I would agree that they are in the category of players who make 5-7 million per season.

Yeah, maybe just a tic more for Pettersson as he actually won the Calder, but I expect short bridge deals and then long term bombs after that:

I did appoint myself as the leader of the know-it-all guild, but so far it is just minivan and myself.
Got told Lordy belonged to a different guild, so he is ineligible.
