Hard pass on Dillon. Big guy, but was a minus-16 on the team with a strong defensive system and Hellebyuck in net. That speaks volumes.Picker of Cherries wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2024 9:45 pm Liked big Zed but it’d be a mistake to think he will consistently play like he did in the playoffs.
He’s a very good third pairing asshole. But you can’t pay him the 6x6 he is asking.
Dillon from the Jets on a short deal at 3.5m will bring nearly just as much. Or bring Chatfield back to Vancouver.
Zed was playing lights out for a new contract. He scored at an unsustainable pace during the playoffs, fighting for a big payday and should go to market to get overpaid. Good on him. Someone will pay a lot and later they’ll regret it. It shouldn’t be the Canucks.
But what about Schaller, Air Thief, Beagle, BirdBones,,Roussel, Sutter, Poolman??Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2024 10:00 pm Agree on Dillon, hard pass. He gets the BC kid love like Stecher did. The local yocals go blind in their love for the local kid done good.
I also agree about Zadorov. It could end up being a regrettable contract. He caught fire at the right time, some have forgotten his baggage when we got him, he has his warts.

Dillon is Ian Cole 2.0. I’ve seen enough of that, sorry.Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 4:37 amBut what about Schaller, Air Thief, Beagle, BirdBones,,Roussel, Sutter, Poolman??Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2024 10:00 pm Agree on Dillon, hard pass.

You loved each and every one of these signings.
Dillon is fine at 2 x 2. As a #6 guy who can provide some grit. Or is Aman going to stick up for the team?
I swear sometimes Pacific Blue runs to the can when there’s a fight on and paints his nails.
Yeah. That’s my bad. I went to nhl.com and didn’t look close enough. His minus-16 is his career playoff numbers.Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 6:23 amDillon was + 20.

I like this plan for D and think that would be solid.
Wondering, will Boeser be healthy and ready to go at training camp?Raile wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 8:36 amI like this plan for D and think that would be solid.
I'd like to keep Blueger but understand he may ask too much. I think we all want to keep Lindholm but same issue as Blueger. If we keep Lindholm, you've got to have him in the top 6. No more of this third line center business. We need to get skill in to the top 6.
I've mentioned a few times my concerns with trading Boeser.. I'm not against it if there's a solid plan on how to upgrade, but I havn't heard anyone even come close to forming a solid plan. Of course if he's now injured in to next year that changes a lot.
Yes you do. You can’t stand players from this province. It’s fine, just own it.Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 6:59 amI love where I’m from, I just don’t judge players by where they are from, that would be - love is blindBlob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 6:25 amWhat is with your hatred of BC born players?

I would use that money on a winger for Petey. Bluegers can centre Joshua and Garland until the next TDD. No one’s expecting Lekkerimaki to be in the lineup before 25-26, so get a guy on a 2-3 year deal as a contributing placeholder.Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 9:01 am I’m just not seeing the benefits of tying up big long term money on Lindholm when he turns 30 in December. Not for where this team is at. He’s gonna be looking for his retirement contract with term and the most money. Do we really want that future boat anchor ? I say no. The organization needs to stop with this shit.
