Re: Canucks News N Notes 2020-2021
Agree, I don’t want to break the bank for him but 1.5 for 1 or even 2 years is reasonable. Wouldn’t go above that. Of course no trade or movement protection added.
Re: Canucks News N Notes 2020-2021
That's the key for Vatanen for Hamonic, who will come at a cheaper price & only for a yr or two.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

At the price those guys won't want to lock in past this season. Thats the beauty. No need to go longer than one year.
The only HW the Canucks need
Re: Canucks News N Notes 2020-2021
Yeah it's a short season anyway, flat cap, not a lot of money available, sign a one year with a good fast team and cash in the offseason.Hockey Widow wrote: ↑Fri Jan 01, 2021 8:34 pm At the price those guys won't want to lock in past this season.

Re: Canucks News N Notes 2020-2021
Whether we pick up a spare, cheap defender short term or not, there will still be periods of time when we will most likely be short handed.
It's almost inevitable. This hybrid, condensed season will no doubt hit defenders the hardest, league wide. I hope Juolevi is as ready as the team
thinks, hopefully his farm days are over...
Also, at about six months older than Quinn Hughes, we have Jack Rathbone. Five foot eleven, 190 pounds. I think this guy is for real and he
should be kept around if he shows well at camp. When first interviewed in July right after he signed, he sounded like he was ready for the big show.
I seriously doubt anything positive can be accomplished by farming him in Utica which may not even have a proper season anyway. Keep him in the cab!

Re: Canucks News N Notes 2020-2021
Old Ron Hainsey might hold up for one more year even at age 39. He's a lefty that has played a lot of right side and has maintained a decent level of play up to last season. Could possibly work for one year in a platoon situation with Benn and one or two of the kids.

Re: Canucks News N Notes 2020-2021
Just a heads up to everybody, in the event we do sign Hamonic.
Got some great hambone gifs already lined up for the live game threads
I'm hoping it's enough to persuade Benning to make the deal.
You know. If he's still sitting on the fence...
