Re: Canucks News N Notes 25-26

If it's a cap dump, why now? Is there a UFA they want to sign right away? Even so, they can be over the cap, right? Not getting this deal at all.

Similar to forwards that can put up points in the AHL, but not make the jump against better competition.

Re: Canucks News N Notes 25-26

Both UW's and Cherry's posts are valid, and we are stuck having to trust that management knows what it's doing. They have gone all-in on Demko being healthy and EP40 returning to form. They have a LOT more insider information about these two players and since I can't do anything about it, I'm going ...

Re: Canucks News N Notes 25-26

Well - that saga is over, and for once, management didn't run it far past its 'best buy' date. So kudos for that, I guess.

A fourth rounder = nothing.
Chase Stillman - maybe we have a reclamation project of a former 1st round pick? (that's about all we can hope for).

Good luck, Arty!

Re: Media (AKA Idiots) Rebooted

I'm paying US$30 a month for Disney, Hulu and ESPN+ (all non-Av Canucks games). Worth it for me, Family Guy is on Hulu, Marvel is on Disney.

Are these price increases for Sportsnet tied to new contracts they sign with the league, or just price gouging?

Re: Canucks News N Notes 25-26

Nevertheless, I don't think you are wrong that the most likely scenario is the Canucks aren't getting more than a 3rd for Silovs -- and that would be a pretty good return given the usual trade market for unproven goalies (or even proven backups). Of course, the market is different each year, but ...

I thought he got pretty vented by the Oilers and we should have gone back to DeSmith once he was healthy. I thought he had a horrible NHL season last year. I understand the “potential” but we need to move on on one of them. I think most people here know that he still has a lot to prove at the NHL le ...
