In a recent article on CanucksArmy, Roget expressed surprise that Suter was still available.
11 potential PTO players still available for the Vancouver Canucks to invite to training camp

Other than he he bags around 15 goals a season, and is a left shot C....I'm unfamiliar with the player..Anyone want to chime in..?
A really solid signing. Suter provided pretty credible middle-six scoring, two-way play (albeit in not high-leverage minutes), and PK utility in his three NHL seasons.
He's a much better bet to be a consistent 3C than Blueger. And the AAV is very digestable.
Another good transaction in what's been a solid offseason for Allvin.

Agreed, Allvin must have something up his sleeve..probably a winger on the way out

Miller
Suter
Blueger.
Love it. Great cap hit for a middle-six tweener. Instantly becomes the only guy on the roster that can slide into a top-6 centre position in-case of injury.
And yes, definitely a precursor to a trade. Doesn’t have to happen for a few more weeks, though.

I'd wager it’s garland. I have a family member that plays with him in the off-season. Pretty much told me Garland complains about Vancouver all the time lol

I love the signing pretty much in every single way.
It basically moves blueger down a spot, adds much more depth

This is really good. I was worried about our C depth at the end of the free agent frenzy, and this makes us much stronger down the middle - although I like Aman, he's still not a sure thing.
Even at the outset of free-agency he seemed to be the perfect compliment to Blueger. They compliment their weaknesses and, together, can make up a 3rd line centre. Allows for a lot of flexibility and strategic deployment.
Oh goodie. I almost had a heart attack thinking we signed a Sutter (again).

Very happy with the signing of Suter. Definitely strengthens the bottom 6 particularly the center position "which was weak in the first place". Suter's speed, two-way play and ability to play on the penalty kill will be a welcomed addition to the team. Being 27, Suter may still have a chance to potentially breakout. Very happy with the signing which came at a great deal. Nice one Allvin.
My guess is Garland or Myers is out. Once Myers bonus is paid off Allvin might already have a deal in place. We shall see.

Even without a trade, if Pearson is LTIRed all year then they are still under the cap.
With Pearson and Poolman on LTIR has around 1.5m in LTIR space. Can go with several other configurations but everyone at the bottom of the roster makes around the same league minimum so it won't affect cap space.
| Andrei Kuzmenko | Elias Pettersson | Ilya Mikheyev |
| Phil Di Giuseppe | JT Miller | Brock Boeser |
| Teddy Blueger | Pius Suter | Anthony Beauvillier |
| Dakota Joshua | Nils Aman | Conor Garland |
| Nils Hoglander | ||
| Quinn Hughes | Ian Cole | |
| Carson Soucy | Filip Hronek | Thatcher Demko |
| Christian Wolanin | Tyler Myers | Spencer Martin |
| Guillaume Brisebois | Matt Irwin |

I don’t know if Suter is the answer but if management tells me he is, I’m fine with trusting it. I’ve been clamouring for a body. You just could not go into the season with Aman and Blueger only.
So I’m happy about this.

No trade. Looks like we will finally have some depth
Not silly to assume playoffs
Yeah, Suter appeared to be an ideal target from some of us at the beginning of free agency. Great versatility and hopefully can fill the obvious 3C hole.
I hope his PK utility means they can essentially retire Miller from that job. Run Blueger/Mikheyev, Aman/PDG, Suter/Joshua. Maximize the offensive minutes for Petey and Miller.
Will Pearson be on LTIR though? I thought the reports were that he plans to be at training camp/start the season?
