They know that if a rebuild commences Hughes is Bye Bye.

Not happening lol

Yes, that's why they will role the dice with Petey if they can't get another top six center in return, even one with diminishing returns like him. (Mason McTavish)

Hate is a bs word…disgust yes👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
I’m not deflecting off EP who’s easily the biggest drag on the team.

Already posted on Dak/Hog just not continually like the #1 problem 👎🏻👎🏻

No reason to bltch about Sherwood you gotta be nuts 👍🏻👍🏻

- Nighthawk


He's not scoring at his usual pace - not sure how that means he's the "biggest drag on the team"? He's overpaid for his current (offensive) performance. Exact same thing can be said about everyone else on the team not named Hughes or Lankinen.

Is he costing us games? Nope.
Is his poor defensive play leading to goals that are the direct result of us losing games? No, I can't think of a single play.

And yes I'm b!tching about Sherwood, are all his body checks winning us games? His 2 goals in 2 months certainly aren't.

I'm b!tching about everyone that isn't holding their weight or even coming close to exceeding expectations.

Would you take on Seth Jones if they retain half and the price is low? I think I would, doubt he would come here but you never know!

Rumour is Rantanen's ask is 13.5 X 8 years.
- LordHumungous


So he wants to be the highest paid player in the league.

Excellent player BUT

Soon to be 29 yr
Only Eclipsed 100 points twice in his career.
Best years are behind him.
Not even a centreman
Played a full season once in his career

It’s about expectations and providing value on their contracts. Sherwood has already exceeded what we are paying him. EP is the biggest drag on the team as he is performing worst relative to his contract/ expectations. Is a players cap hit not relevant to you?

I would do that, I don't think you get very many top talent opportunities. Also, rumors are rumors. I think he will go where he wants, maybe even back to Colorado.

I think the argument to be made would be how good he is in the playoffs.

Wrong. The rumour is that is exactly what Carolina offered. He hasn’t accepted or rejected it yet.

Drai got 14x 8 and others will soon get even more.

I would, but I'm in the minority. Jones at 4.75 for a 3rd rounder. If Tocc and Foote can turn the Chaos Giraffe around...

Hughes - Hronek
M Pettersson - Jones

So it’s true.
Motherfcukers have indeed forgot about Drai.

I’m with you, but don’t think that Chicago would retain half.
Also.
I think the Canucks don’t want to block out Willanders development.
I don’t think they want a RD with too much term.

Chicago wouldn't retain half and it would cost way more than a 3rd. He's probably a 2nd pair caliber player right now.

Apparently the puck hit a nerve, which made him lightheaded/dizzy, explains why it took him so long to get off the ice. Still expect he will play tonight though
