Sam Steele and Matt Duchene to Dallas
- VANTEL

Sam Steele will be out of the league soon enough when it’s revealed that he was one of the 8 in the London thing. Him, Batherson and Hart will lose their careers. I’d stay away from all 8 of them personally.

Outstanding day. Added some size, kept the term low and completely overhauled our PK. Hopefully Myers is the next move.

I haven't looked up who they signed yet.

The same Stars that have FIVE guys making over 7.75 million a year, two of them over 9 million and one over 8 million. Benn, Seguin, Robertson, Hintz and Heiskanen.

And you wanna trade Pettersson because we'll have two guys making over 8 million a year.

Got rid of Burroughs, Bear, Schenn. Pretty well entire right side from last season and picked up Cole, Irwin, Soucey all left defenders. Hronek is lonesome.

Cole or Soucey will be tried on the right side of Hughes.

Ten and a half million. If you are going to make statements like that at least be in the ballpark with your exaggeration.


He is not worth 10.5

#Canucks also signing Teddy Blueger: 1 year x $1.9 million.

Love the PK and hockey IQ on their roster now.

I don't care about the 8 mil contract to JTM , Petey is not worth over 10.5 and no one will convince me otherwise.

Allvin said Pearson will be ready for camp. They need to move someone.

If he has another 90+ point season he most definitely is, or at least right around there. That's how much great players make and even some bad ones.

Cole and Soucey both play a lot on the right side. As of now, we still have Myers. Totally fine having cole play the right side w Quinn

We need some grit or toughness. I hope we can get players on 2-way contracts that can add that.

Your absolutely right. Most perennial 90pt players are 10-11 million. Your mackinnon as, Mcdavids and Panarins are 12-15.

Who said I did not like him? I don't like him at 10.5 plus long term. Sign him for 9 mil and I like him lots.

You are as smart as you are handsome.

Sign him for several million under market value? What’s your strategy here?

Sort of but Podz and Aman can still go down to minors freely and Studnicka, Dries were pretty meh. That only leaves 12 with PEArson.

Brooks is usually a pro Canucks guy. I don't think his comments are far off. We cleared cap and got rid of a bad contract to create cap room to sign mediocre contracts to be a bubble team again and max out the cap.

I am pretty unopinionated about today, but I definitely don't think they hit a home run. I think we only moved the needle slightly IMO but we did not commit long term which is fine.
