June 18; TSN's evening TV broadcast had a list of possible NHL available players.
As they scroll down said list, guess what was at the bottom of it?

(The Vancouver Canuck's 10th first round pick). :evil:

No respect !!

And both, back east sports stations, pretty much have Zaitsev already to go to Vancouver.
And there may be more as the Canucks are "SO" desperate for any NHL calibre blueliners.
Are they being sarcastic? mmm.

Hayes signs with Flyers. 7 years, 50M. About 7.1 for the cap.

Perhaps what we are looking at for Boeser.
The only HW the Canucks need

Bob MacKenzie suggesting cap could dip below 82M for next season, below the projected 83-85 M. This will make it tougher than it was going to be for a few teams.

The leaves are screwed and nobody wants Marleau or Zaitsev. Dubas and his analytics may have to part with 7 goals 20 assists IIHF Nylander and his $7 Million cap hit

Hayes is a second line player and a fair bit better than Sutter.

But yeah that’s a bit rich for my blood for that player.

Boeser can't be offersheeted, nor does he have arbitration rights - Canucks hold all the power.

The east coast media are the biggest ass hairs around, but then when you work in the butthole of Canada what do you expect. Even JB will not help out the laughs without a significant sweetener added. Even then, most of us predict that the Nucks will make the playoffs within the next 2 years so why take a boat anchor now?

Montreal not qualifying Mike “the brain” Gillis 2013 first round pick - Shinkaruk. Looks he’s off to the pastures along with Jensen, Gaunce, Schroeder, Hodgson, Sauve, Rodin, Mallet etc.
