Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
Surprised Thomas, Fabbri, Parayko, Kyrou would be available. They’ve made stupid trades - the O’Reilly acquisition was dumbass. It’s obvious that ROR is a disruption, where ever he goes his team’s suck. He’s not a glue guy. They need a retool, Tarasenko, ROR, Bouwmeester and Schwartz is who they should be dangling

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
I would see what Schwarz’s Price would be. None of the kids will come without a significant tag. Everybody else, y’Idunno...RoyalDude wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 7:02 am Surprised Thomas, Fabbri, Parayko, Kyrou would be available. They’ve made stupid trades - the O’Reilly acquisition was dumbass.

Parayko would be a welcome addition to the Canucks defense. However, his price tag and contract might be too much for the Canucks.RoyalDude wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 7:02 am Surprised Thomas, Fabbri, Parayko, Kyrou would be available.

I guess theres no shortcuts any more unless a gm is extremely lucky like that Janne many letters in columbus
If you need air...call it in
Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
Canucks untouchables are: Horvat, Pettersson, Boeser and Hughes. Everyone else can be had for a price. Only 1 of Demko and DiPietro should be available.
Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
Ya, pretty much agree but I wouldn't toss Jake either. So much upside to what he's really starting to do.
Last night in the third, he acted like the perfect power forward that was there for his mates, skated great, got into the opponents faces, without
taking a penalty, and was an offensive threat. Big progress this year.

If he could learn to punch someone out he'd take the next step. Agree on him in my new core list all the way. Without a prick or 2 teams dont usually win (kunitz, brown, cooke, etc)

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
I could see Jake starting to fight more, he’s coming to the conclusion that he’s the biggest strongest guy on the ice most of the time. That game against phaneuf was a good one for him. As he gets his confidence up I think he’ll be more willing to do it. Now I don’t think he’ll ever be drawing in against the lucic’s, reaves and other heavy weights, but the roussell level guys I don’t think he’ll be scared of.Uncle dans leg wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 11:53 am If he could learn to punch someone out he'd take the next step.

When he hits that tipping point where it's true unmitigated anger, think Dan will see what he, we, want.Richardstroker69 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 8:07 pmI could see Jake starting to fight more, he’s coming to the conclusion that he’s the biggest strongest guy on the ice most of the time.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
Ole Jake is gearing up for it. I can’t wait until him and Matthew Tkachuk go at it. Ya just hope that Tkachuk (Blobbee’s Boi) wont shamefully drop to the ice turtling like he did when Kassian challenged him. Disgusting that.Richardstroker69 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 8:07 pmI could see Jake starting to fight more, he’s coming to the conclusion that he’s the biggest strongest guy on the ice most of the time.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
I don’t think he has it in him unfortunately. He’s a powerful kid but he’s not a fighter. He got tuned up by 165 pound Bobby Farnham and had a massive black eye after the fight. He looked like the Dude after he tossed haymakers with the sailors at the Dufferin Hotel.micky107 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 15, 2018 12:07 amWhen he hits that tipping point where it's true unmitigated anger, think Dan will see what he, we, want.Richardstroker69 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 8:07 pmI could see Jake starting to fight more, he’s coming to the conclusion that he’s the biggest strongest guy on the ice most of the time.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
He’s been getting fighting lessons from Guds. He’s ready to roll, Macenzzi. He won’t be flopping to the ice hiding in his shell like a turtle like ole Matthew Tkachuk did with Kassian. No way Jose
