Markstrom will have to sign at 4 to 4.5. million per, if he wants a retirement style contract. That's the safe thing to do
and what I think he''ll do.

UMMMM. Let us do the thinking McLinky!

Howz that worked out?

GREAT

So how many years on that "retirement style contract" prediction of yours Gomer?

who are you talking to my black?

who are you talking to mr. black?

I seeeeee...

Or are you just going to run away from the conversation when you don't like where it's going?

(as usual)

YUP, NO RESPONSE FROM MICKY

And then 4 days later in a different thread:

Doubt the Canucks are willing to do 6m for 5 or 6 years. Had nothing gone wrong with world health that would have been his approximate
value I think. Maybe 5.8, maybe even 6.5 if others were locked up quickly.
For me, he's worth around 4.8 for three years. He wont do that. Canucks want the two goalie system, We'll see.
Benning isn't going to rush into anything when he doesn't have to just yet.

It seems the Mickster thinks, due to COVID, Marko's value has dropped from $6.5M x 6 years to $4.8M x 3 years.

And it appears Mick's definition of "a retirement style contract" is $4.8M x 3 years at age 30.

Or maybe the Mick Man just likes to hear himself talk...

So whats the word on Markstrom? Anyone else getting the sense that the team may be preparing to let him price himself out of town?

It would surely be one way to relieve the cap pressure while retaining TT and CT. Hell they can likely retain Jake and add a piece if they let marky walk.

Whats the local radio blatherers saying?

I don't think Benning has the smarts or guts to play hardball with Marky and let him walk if it plays out like that.

I predict Benning will sadle the Canucks with another overpriced, lengthy contract with a NMC. For once I'm cheering for the owner to keep a tight hold of the purse strings and nix any big spending this off season.

Garbage take, he’s basically said he’ll play hardball by saying marky’s earned the right to test free agency, he’s preparing the fanbase for exactly that outcome. Dumb

Not a bad strategy IMHO, it will give the Canucks a true gauge of where the market is at for Markstrom. He's stated he wants to stay in Van. so Canucks should get a chance to match any offers.

[Megaterio Llamas]

Whoever it was that said we should lock up Hughes and Pettersson early and see what we have left to work with before we go signing anyone else this off season has already won this thread as far as I'm concerned.


So, take a bow thread champion. Whoever you were

Never said that.

LOL.. Is that what that said, I don't think so. Lord have mercy..

I don’t think your trade proposal was out to lunch, rathbone is super highly rated around the league, similar to fox, and rangers would be very familiar with him.

Nothing against Buchnevich but I have no interest seeing them trade Rathbone. Besides, they really need RHD and another center in the system way more than wingers.

All good points, just saying I'd love some more firepower with some size on the 3rd.

Pearson-Horvat-Boeser
Buchnevich-Gaudette-Virtanen

And in 2021:
Buchnevich-Gaudette-Podkolzin

BTW Micky, calling me "mr. black" really cut me deep, real deep. Some might even call that an "epic" putdown.

LOL, Doc...it meant in the shadow, (with a smoke) Strangelove as opposed to the "out in the daylight" one you use to show.
Why you would think anything else is beyond me.
