Hronek worked well with Hughes, no way you let him walk and having him for 8 years is a great deal.
This is going to age like a fine wine, 3 years from now he's an elite RHD playing for millions less than what one would be worth at that time.
They could of called!
Holy over pay Batman
Perunovich signing seems right. Not too much for a guy that can play well but gets hurt a bit.
Pretty good deal for the Canucks. Still a young guy, RHD first pair and of course the Canadian market malus. Everything under 8 would be good. Cap goes up. It is 2024, Inflation and all the other stuff. People can't compare this to 5-6 year old contracts. I would predict that 2nd pair guys get this much in 2-3 years.
I think Bertuzzi and Toffoli would be great signs. Same with Dillon.
I hope tonight is the end of the season! Thursday is the first day of summer. This is too long of a season.
Not a fan of this extension contract for Hronek don’t get me wrong he’s great on the ice. But really 8 years for 7mil I don’t get it.
I like it!
Solid. Played well with Hughes and should keep Hughes comfortable. RHD are hard to find.
Do you ever think there will be a point where all the GMs in the league just make a Discord server (or other alternative) and use that to communicate?
Great deal. This should hopefully age well for vancity.
Locking down Quinn's D partner for next year and beyond was extremely important, its simply a bonus its a young extremely talented RHD on a long term deal. Im glad Hronek is staying and im glad we dont have to have the headache of trying to find a first line RHD to pair with Quinn
So I guess the Necas Hronek deal Vancouver fans talked about is off??
No audio
I like the signing, just please don't resign Ian Cole.
7.25 to much..5.5 I was hoping
why would you pay someone that much for that long who can only produce playing with a norris level dman lol. dude is worse than damon severson
Me so Hroney
7.25m is just perfect imo. When I first heard rumours being at least 8m, at the time I thought it was a tad too much I was thinking 7m would be fair, so now that's it's 7.25 I am totally fine and even happy at that number. So good job on the Canucks and Allvin for getting that done.
8 years tho is long as F I don’t like anything past 4 years honestly for that type of player
8 years?!?
It's a good contract however if he fades away in the latter half of the season and it becomes a recurrence then this contract will be a big issue.
Another loser move by Allvin
Its over Z fans…
Canucks haven't won anything, yet already they will have cap issues very soon. Gotta love today's sports.
Seems like an overpay, 6 mlns would've been okay or 5 years.
Great. Now sign big
Z!
Good deal better than 8 m
Honestly don’t mind it the end years we shall see but that’s more deals
Hella deal! 1st pair RHDs don’t come cheap
I love how you changed your hat and jersey even though you did back to back Canucks videos. That attention to detail is why I love watching your videos.
I think that's a fair contract for Hronek to partner Hughes. Management did a good job keeping it under $8m a year and getting it done fairly early. Now they can focus on resigning or replacing other players.
As a wings fan who saw him be medeocre for a good while id say this feels like a reach. I understand RHD and such but lets hope his 1 good season wasnt a fluke becsuse now he has EIGHT more to go
good for Fil, I thank him for his time in Detroit and glad to see he's found himself a home (drafting Sandin-Pelikka definitely makes me feel pretty good about it)
I personally think it's too much. Imo, he's a 6m player. He fell off BAD at the end of the season. But i could be proven wrong, and im okay to admit that.
Completely bs "Embellishment" call in the 3rd Period. Weird how the refs can see "Embellishment" but not see anything else. I hate that "Embellishment" rule.
I think the Hronek deal will either be great or subpar. I don't see it being the most insane, high-value signing, but I also don't see it going too wrong for the Canucks in the worst-case scenario.
this is serious hollywood grade quality there homies!
Paul Maurice has to do some soul searching. Shame on the Panthers. This is a massive defensive and coaching fail.
Perunovich is one of the greatest Slav names ever! Hail Perun!
This deal is going to age like milk. Hronek benefited tremendously from playing with Quinn Hughes. He's a liability in the defensive end and has potential to be good on PP but Hughes has the QB role there. This is a brain dead deal that the Nucks are again going to regret sooner than later. There are so many right handed defenders as UFAs that are better than Hronek and would've cost less. Matt Roy for example. 5.5M would have been a way better deal.
this is perfect. 9 for Jake, 5 for Zaddy, Lindholm and Joshua Walk. 2.5 for Myers, 1.5 for Sliovs. 2.25 for Bluegar Trade Mikheyev to Utah so they make the floor along with a 3rd and 6th

*is a ghost in the playoffs
*sign for 8 years
it is long.. and that's my only concern. That being said i am glad he's remaining a Canuck, he was dynamite with Hughes all year and really pushed the the play out of the D zone and sustained offensive pressure , which made the season a huge success for the most part.
Yeeeesh this is almost as bad as Nurse lol
Hronek 8×7,25 hmm. That is something…
