What do the oilers have to say? They Own me
Zaddy will stay.
They need a better salary cap maybe like premiere league soccer. Also we need a world hockey league. when canada and sweden were battling for the bronze there is something bigger going on. North American hockey is getting really boring. I want to see a team in Switzerland win the Stanley Cup. Or Latvia with Silovs. Also Petterson is getting 11+M but he had the worst playoffs and 2nd half of the year. We need player who come out and play every night.
Keep in mind that the source (Dhaliwal) is kinda bffs with Zadorov’s agent (Milstein), so I would take this news with a grain of salt. Regardless, we need a cup winning roster, if losing Z is what’s best for the team as a whole, I’m all for it! Cups aren’t won by city’s favourite players, it’s won by well built teams.
That worse thing that can happen is getting trapped by poor deals. Z although great in the playoffs, has never really proven himself to be a $6M player. I think $4-5M is good but if that doesn’t work for him or his agent, then I’m okay with him leaving.
It doesn't matter what side of the deal you are on, you never accept the first offer.
Nobody accepts the 1st offer. It's called negotiation
There are lots of pieces at play so not talking right now is not a big deal. Also, was Z playing for the bag or for the cup? I'm not sure I can answer that tbh.
Brah I used to like your videos but now your pure click bait. And it’s sad
We need big Z back!
this is the same reason he was traded from Calgary. He wanted too much so he was moved.
Canucks fans loves offense and points they don't CARE about size, grit, toughness, hard hitting, nor fighting. Toronto is prob their dream team, and look to them as a pricing figure for future contracts. They love the small swedes/euros in Vancouver. Teams marveled at the size of the defense in Vancouver this year. to bad they they don't do the same with the forwards. Some things will never change in Vancouver.
Some of Defence needs to be fired , to traded , can't stand there see no attack mode moving, stand there like goof see other team score the goal
As long as you can scrape into the playoffs anything can happen. L.a. Kings were dead last in their conference when they won I believe. I'd take him for the Leafs.
i like lego
I hope Nikita stays.
Lol, one playoff run and a whole bunch have "priced themselves out" of the Canucks
Zodorov
Hronek
Lindholm
Joshua
All likely to be gone next season
Hahahaha…Z being Z. Good luck paying that guy $6mill a yr. He'll just turn coat a season later
Don't forget, at the beginning of the Flames season he was all talk, and the fans wanted him signed long-term and even be the captain… One tweet while in Toronto change that scenario right quick! Big Z, is all about Big Z… 8 other NHL teams already know that.
I'd love to see him stay someway somehow at the right price. But what a treet he was
Should we be basing this strictly upon the small sample size that is the playoffs?
Zadorov will be a Leaf. bet on it
Ffs he hasn't left yet, there will be another offer. There always is. That's why it's called a "NEGOTIATION ". Wake up.
No capspace 23 million for Zadorov 4 players eating up all walked
Calgary was weak trading him in the division
5 ×6mil will get it done.
No no no. Dillon coming to replace Cole. Hronek May come back for one year and big Z coming back for sure
its called a negotiation… he wants 6. they will agree in the middle at 5mill.
The Devils have the cap space and could really use a 'Zadorov' type of defenseman. Wouldn't be surprised if they come knocking.
Damn…Those Edmonton reporters picking numbers from trees might have been right after all. Can't wait to see Vancouver fans defend him when he is on a new team and starts bad talking the Canucks.
