Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
I was thinking about your Hague idea, how could the Canucks fit him without sending cap the other way?
Without Hague, Vegas is $10m over the cap. With Patrick, Lehner and Weber on LTIR they'd have an extra $14m in space. Can we infer that Hague wants more than $4m? Seems unlikely, but he's big and seemingly established himself as a top-4, 18-minute Dman last season.
Regardless of what Hague wants, the piece going the other way has to be >$4 million, so that eliminates Garland.
If only Allvin hadn't signed IRlya Mikheyev, maybe we could have pulled it off, but hard to see it now.
Maybe we could send Ferland's LTIR space with Garland (or preferably Mikheyev) to make it work? But that would only work for 1 year, and vegas has no big contracts coming off the books after this season.

Not looking good for Patrick, a lot of so-so at best 1st rounders from that draft, but imagine if the Canucks had selected him and only to watch Makar take the NHL by storm. I'd be sick to my stomach. The whole Tkachuk, Ehlers, Nylander stuff is one thing, Makar is in a different league than those guys.

I was hoping Makar would drop to us at 5th, but alas CanuckLuck. I would still pick Makar over Pettersson 10 out of 10 times. Happy we have Petey but Makar is a game-changer on a different level. Always thought that the two defensemen should have gone 1 & 2 before Hischier and Patrick.

Vegas is good at including a 3rd team, which likely would be the case.
Hague probably wants term, not sure how much he wants though.

As for missing out on Makar, it's a shame, but having Petey and Hughes is primo to build around long-term.

Beauty hit on Zegras by some guy named Jan Jenik on the Coyotes, and it wasn't even after one of his lacrosse goals. The kid needs to keep his head up. Tough losing your young star player in a meaningless game against a meaningless team like that.

Oh, beauty hit. So clean, shoulder to shoulder. Knocked some of that cockiness out of the kid.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
Canes end up signing de Haan for the season at $850k. If he can give them quality 3rd pairing and PK minutes, that's a solid signing. Would rather have him than DeKeyser or Poolman.
Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
Not even sure that keeping his head up was the issue there, it's not like he was skating with his head down. In that clip I have no idea how he didn't see him coming. More than anything I think he saw him and cockily thought he could easily step around him.....whoops.Curmudgeon wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 8:43 am Beauty hit on Zegras by some guy named Jan Jenik on the Coyotes, and it wasn't even after one of his lacrosse goals.

What a doozy of a contract Lou gifted Barzal of Port Moody.

Dennis Cholowski from Langley, LHD and ex 1st rounder, hits waivers again. Weren't the Canucks interested in him at some point?
