Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas
The Canucks have had a string of solid goaltending since Roberto Lalongo:
Luongo
Schneider
Miller
Markstrom
Demko
Silovs
Luongo
Schneider
Miller
Markstrom
Demko
Silovs

Luongo put and end to our goalie graveyard.

The Great Dave Nonis put an end to it, traded for Luongo and drafted Schneider!

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas
He is an outside shot at this point. Silovs has had a solid 12 month run, and is looking legit. But, hey, Ian Clarke seems to have the magic touch, so I wouldn't say Tolopila has no chance.Cousin Strawberry wrote: ↑Thu May 16, 2024 5:41 pm Topopopolo is a giant who was considered to be a pretty good prospect, even surpassing Silovs in some people's eyes
Let's keep Silovs just so the media can have another controversy.
The Cup is soooooo ours!!!!!!!

I think it’s paramount Alvin cuts his losses on the Mikheyev experiment, trade him some how to free up the cap space to go towards retaining some of Lindholm, Zadorov and Joshua.

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas
Not sure its of "paramount" importance, but it might be the best step forward. I doubt there's a market for him at that cap hit; there might be with 50-66% of salary retained. Since his contract wasn't terribly front loaded, there are real cap savings from a buyout. Cap Friendly shows $3.6M is savings next year (cap hit of $1.15M), $2.6M in savings the following year (cap hit of $2.15M), and cap hits of $1.55M the two years after the contract would have otherwise expired.Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Fri May 17, 2024 9:11 am I think it’s paramount Alvin cuts his losses on the Mikheyev experiment, trade him some how to free up the cap space to go towards retaining some of Lindholm, Zadorov and Joshua.
But when you use savings to resign players, you need to replace the spot in the line up with at least a league minimum player, who will likely be league minimum in value.

It's a shame Utah won't want to be the league's cap graveyard anymore, hopefully Chicago and San Jose are looking for serviceable NHL players or we can find someone willing to exchange distressed assets for maybe a defenseman the team thinks they can get more out of.
Mikheyev is probably our biggest short term cap problem at this point.

Mikheyev and a 5th for a 6th or 7th. Avoid the buyout if at possible.UWSaint wrote: ↑Fri May 17, 2024 9:25 amNot sure its of "paramount" importance, but it might be the best step forward.

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas
Lol it will be a fair bit more than that. They will want a better pick, a decent prospect and will send back a 1.5 million dollar slug.Madcombinepilot wrote: ↑Fri May 17, 2024 12:25 pmMikheyev and a 5th for a 6th or 7th.

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas
They upgraded their pick by 60+ spots, and sure, send back a slug (or even 2) at 1.5 or less. Those slugs just get sent down and it’s a couple hundred thousand on the cap (once we call up some ELC boys) vs Mikey’s whollop. Not a big deal, solves the problem for us with minimal expenditure.Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Fri May 17, 2024 12:51 pmLol it will be a fair bit more than that.

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas
We traded Dickinson away at 1/2 the cap hit of Mikeyev, and it cost us a 2nd round pick.Madcombinepilot wrote: ↑Fri May 17, 2024 1:32 pmThey upgraded their pick by 60+ spots, and sure, send back a slug (or even 2) at 1.5 or less.

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas
Pretty much. May have to package him out with a sweetener if we would like to get some of Zadorov, Lindholm, Joshua, Myers back and give Hronek a raise. They could trade Hronek and or Garland for futures but I highly doubt they would want to.Megaterio Llamas wrote: ↑Fri May 17, 2024 3:05 pm We just can't afford to take on more dead cap. No mas!
Lafferty, DeSmith and Cole are gone
