Oh gawd, Drance on the radio saying Guenzel at anything under 11m Canuck fans should be fist bumping. Too much IMO.
He said something similar on The Crossover with Donnie & Dhali yesterday. The gist is that Guentzel is a superstar that anything under 11m is a good contract.

Canucks have permitted agent Dan Milstein to find a trade for Mik. So, prepare for Mik to not be traded lol

Better than you
Yeah…I’d love to add Guentzel to this team but let’s say it’s $10.9M. That seems a bit high for a winger. At that point I would rather look into what Laine would cost (and if you could get him simply for Mikheyev and a pick while not asking Columbus to retain any salary).
I’d like to see the Guentzel contract under $10M. Ideally closer to $9-9.5M.

unless mikheyev requested a trade i think that means he's getting bought out.
Something weird about property price being so crazy that Lynn Valley could be a potential neighborhood for hockey millionaires.
Used to be kits, Yale town and west Van….

Clearing cap for the Canucks to Zadorov another client of his.
whatever contract he signs, it’s likely the 1st 2-3 years he paid like 11M in real money but he is not going to be paid 11M like at the backend of a 7 year contract.

Boeser: "Find your own deal"
Garland: "Find your own deal"
Mikheyev: "Find your own deal"
Not too optimistic on this one.

logan stanley?ian mcintyre said on radio "i spoke to an agent that said the canucks are trying to save their money because they have a bigger piece in mind".
trying to squeeze a third out of the opportunity for another team to sign their big move tdl pick up to an 8 year deal versus a 7 year deal when they ostensibly have no given up on signing the guy is the most carolina thing ever. it perfectly captures their inability to follow through even when they make big moves., their ruthless disloyal approach to negotiating, their prioritizing of winning the details over the big picture, and their relentless thriftiness.

Yeah, I was going to say, this isn't typically an encouraging sign. Granted, it ended up working out nicely for us that neither Boeser or Garland left. But I don't think Mikheyev is going to be in quite the same boat.
The only time I've heard of it working was with Zadorov. Apparently Milstein was the facilitator for him coming to Vancouver. That wasn't made public until after the trade was made which makes me believe Milstein has already had permission and hasn't had any luck so far.

like goodrow, mikheyev has a limited no trade clause. if the canucks are considering waiving him so a team on his list can claim him then they might do this first as a courtesy.
otherwise i think it is a courtesy before a buyout.

I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere but I don't see the Canucks paying a sweetener to move Mik. Wondering if there are any players who the Canucks can trade for in a 1 for 1 deal for Mik in an area of need. For example, Pageau has a five million dollar cap hit for two more years and would be a good 3C, eliminating the need to resign Blueger. Or Holl/Chiarot from the Red Wings, both of whom have two more years left, and while not at the level of Zadorov, would allow him to walk to focus on other needs. What other names would be reasonable for the Canucks to consider in such a trade?

Good company. Mik will not be traded and will have a career year and be our playoff MVP!
Thread in 2025: "Ilya Mikheyev 30 goal scorer - Re-sign?"
Mikheyev to the Utes for Shea Weber's contract:
Nets 13M extra Cap and LTIR space.
Then sign whomever they want.

I know this is tongue in cheek but if we didn’t need the cap space to resign key players. I think he bounces back on line with Petey and Guentzel (or another offensive driver).
The good out of this is that there isn’t a conceivable way they can bring Mikheyev back, right? Right??!
Milstein is probably going to work his ass off to move Mikheyev and help Zadorov sign here right

the fact allvin is making it milstein's problem to clear mikheyev's salary so they can sign zadorov is kind of funny.
