  1. Our PP was horrible the last 20-25 games of the year. Thats an easy 10-12 points that 6/9/40/43 could've had! The next step is having a LETHAL PP that scores at a crazy clip.

  2. Really believe zadorov is super important and the playoffs showed that very well but at 5 million+ it's hard to do especially because a bonafide top 6 guy like guentzel/reinhart is needed, a trade seems like the best route to address those needs considering the cap crunch

  3. i laugh now thinking about sportsnet declaring that NJD got 'the best hughes' brother. ruthervin have a plan B, C, D, and E in place for each of the moves they want to make.

  4. One of the best things the Canucks could start the seasons with is a couple million or so in cap space to take advantage of some deals on players or waivers claim they want that other cap strapped teams can't do because they're up against it. I'd love to see them bring back Zadorov and then get Toffoli, but you can't go crazy with overpaying UFAs, because that's how this team got into the trouble with Benning. If not Zadorov then another big guy they might want is Edmundson and there's a chance they can bring back Tanev. Silovs had an impressive baptism by fire, but they're probably going to have him spend next season in the AHL to get more games.

  5. Myers is a unnecessary overpayment — his value is 2.1 x2 his war /60 is =1.9 (180th) Terrible deal! A true cup contender does NOT have myers as a 4D! He is a 6 at best!

  6. Drance wrong again… Myers would not get a "WHOLE LOT MORE" typical inaccurate Van media as always!
