Wow you guys are a sad bunch of losers. Knock off the constant whining. The team was awesome last year and proved the young leaders can elevate in the playoffs. They had a rough start in a fake season. Who the (frank) cares about the COVID bowl. This season is horse sh!t. I’m just glad I can watch hockey again regardless. Mini reset is fine and very normal for teams on the rise.

Hopefully add a top pairing D in the draft and regroup over the summer. Stop crying

Happy Wednesday

Nice to have stability back there at decent term and price. Way better deal than Marky with the Flames.

Just need to keep Clark. Throw him 5 x 5 as well

Was playing around with Cap Friendly to see how much cap space the Canucks could have by signing some of the waiver guys they got and moving players around. If they go:

JTM - Petey (7.5) - Brock
Hoglander - Bo - Podkolzin (1.2 not sure how ELC bonuses work right away)
Vesey (1) - Boyd (1) - Virt
Motte - ZacMac - Lind (1)
Rous

Hughes (6) - Hamonic (1.25)
OJ (1) - Myers
Rathbone - Schmidt
Trymakin (1)

Buyout LE, waive Beagle

Not saying this is ideal, nor exact cap numbers, but just to get a rough estimate of cap while scraping by as minimally as they can... leaves about 4.5 mil in cap space. That doesn't include anyone the Kranken take, assuming they'll take a roster player.

They were speculating on the radio that perhaps Demko’s camp wants to move on from Clark. If Clark isn’t resigned shortly we probably have our answer

That seems odd. Any reasoning as to why? Seems like whatever Clark touches turns to gold – including Demko.

I pulled a nighthawk and have been posting like mad in an old thread. Breaking news like a champ, wondering why nobody is posting.

Great, a unproven goalie dictating what he wants after 60 some games, 5*5 is a bit over the top, 62 NHL games...

Better sign stick boy and midget boy to 10*8 and let them tell the GM who should play...stupid (frank)ing Canucks.

I doubt that is the case. It's more of a managerial decision who they hire and fire.

They just said sometimes a goalie likes a fresh voice. May be nothing to it 🤷‍♂️

He never provided a link, therefore it is BS.

Tough to say but I think Petey and Huggy will make more than that, even on bridges. Especially Quinn, their numbers will undoubtedly be very close/the same.

Sorry not sure. I was listening to 650 on the way to the gym about an hour ago. Was only tuned in for a few minutes

Yeah, but let's not forget this is basically his first season as a starter. It's not like he's a 10.5 mil veteran asset like Carey Price. There's no way in hell he nor his agent are getting a chance to call the shots with the Coaching staff, that's bath salt territory.

I’m just relaying what they are saying on the radio to provide things to discuss. It was an interesting thought that I hadn’t considered

A lot of times these hosts just throw crap out there to generate discussion, kinda like what we do hear.
