Re: Career Milestones 2022/23

Makar’s only hurdle is staying healthy. He is, imho, the best D man in the league tho. Quinn’s record is very impressiveI. I agree, he’d be a finalist for the Norris every year if he were in TO or New York. Hughes is one of the best passers in the game. I think his shot is under-rated, he just alway...

Re: Trade Rumours & Armchair Pipe Dreams 22-23 Sponsored by SKYO

I think an OEL buy-out is a realistic option for management this summer. They have even hinted as much. He’s a goddamned boat anchor of a contract. His offensive is negligible, while he spends the least amount of time on the PK as any regular D. I just don’t see the organization enduring his presenc...

How many top 4 D have moved teams in the past year? How many of them were in their mid 20’s, cost controlled and right shooting?

Re: Canucks News n Notes 22-23

I suspect after the 10 or so deals Allvin has made, and the 20 or so he didn’t, he has a number of transactions lined up with teams he will come back to in the Spring.

The cap doesn’t concern me one iota.

Interesting how they’d move a D-man from Abby when their blueline is already decimated.

They are now saying not Detroit or it’s a three way deal
That makes more sense than a straight up accusation.

Re: Abby Game Talk March / April

Just from following along here, it’s seems the kids have been doing a bulk of the scoring for some time.

Here’s hoping Allvin can bring in some warm yet expiring bodies and send the Euros et al down for the playoffs. Hogs, Pod, Raty, Aman. Imagine if Kuz went down!?!

Are those clambering for a complete rebuild, who dislike this deal, also hoping to deal Petey and Quinn?

Re: Canucks News n Notes 22-23

Stevie is rebuilding and we are re-tooling? More Awesomeness! Last Summer Stevie signs veterans Andrew Copp, Dom Kubalik and David Perron to multi year deals. Trades for vet D man Walman, and signs Maatta. This year he extends both Walman and Maatta to multi year deals and just extended Larkin. Non...

I read over at THN that Yzerman was going hard after Chychrun, he just needed to acquire assets and clear cap space, hence the Hronek deal.

He still has the picks, but he missed out on upgrading the blueline and is now out a top 4 RHD.
