It's still LE. He won't see the ice for 4 million.

Mantha 4 games 4 goals for Washington

He's a kid I wish we had the cap for in the off season. I doubt Washington re-signs him.

Have a look at CHZ. I think it could be pretty decent longterm. I have ADA and XRP, also some Siacoin. I dumped my Doge when it hit .42 US, quadrupled my money in 2 days.

How much doge did you have?

Not much, a few thousand coins. I have a play fund where I play the penny cryptos.

As a sports fan it's intriguing and I think it has a future.

haha ok. My point is "fans" and "media types" are outta their fawking minds if they think Holtby is actually gonna get bought out. they're just setting themselves up to be butthurt. It's actually quite a hilarious cycle to watch.

All very true, but it’s interesting that arguably JB’s best off season signing turned to poop anyway. If it was a smart move and it didn’t work then dim Jim must be cursed.

But does Holtby’s contract contribute to or diminish Canuck’s cap issues considering that the not-very-good backup goalie is adding $4.3M to the not-very-good team’s cap?
- bloatedmosquito


You said "management should have known the team would take a step backwards so they shouldn't have signed Holtby to his term/$ - based on his decline. SO what you're saying/assuming is this management team/organization knowingly accepted losing & came into the season with the mentality "We know we're going to suck harder this year so let's go out and facilitate that sucking...."

Again,I'll ask & please answer - what UFA goalie do you think the team should have hired to facilitate this line of thinking?

THEN

Imagine that conversation - "Hi Keith Kinkaid/Corey Crawford/Aaron Dell - we think we're going to take a step back this year, we've accepted that and we think you're just the guy to help us do that. How does 1 year, league minimum sound?"

You're in? Great! Welcome aboard the sinking ship!!

Transactions: #Canucks recall Brisebois, DiPietro, Graovac, and Lind from taxi squad under emergency conditions.

Pearson activated from IR and Rafferty loaned to squad.

Yeah, sportsnet article has taxi squad defencemen Guillaume Brisebois and Jalen Chatfield in the lineup.

Most rosters are showing Hughes in, I would be surprised if he is healthy enough to play.

On another note, looks like the farm team will be out of Utica sooner than expected, do you thing somewhere is New Zealand would be a good fit?
