[PG Canuck]

Got our puck moving dman!!!!!!!!

 

[Nucker101]

Lowkey expected this, I had a feeling Tocchet/Foote would want him after that series.

 

[Burke's Evil Spirit]

Boy am I worried about mobility on the back end.

 

[Jovofan]

There's our third pairing upgrade.

 

[ProviesGhost]

We might not win, but the other team is going home in body bags LOL

 

[JT Milker]

This should mean we’re just under the cap with a 23 man roster.

Confirmed by Team

 

[VanJack]

Count me as shocked......Canucks have actually signed more UFA's than they did last year. Just didn't see it coming.

 

[TruGr1t]

Haha Tocchet and his giant defensemen. Whatever we’ll block a lot of shots.

 

[Rotang]

I like him for the PK but yeah... mobility and zone exits are becoming a big concern.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Decent bottom pairing guy.

Myers is still in the top 4 and the bueline is slow and vulnerable.

 

[Nuckles]

Yuck. Wasn't he a healthy scratch in the cup final? And Myers is now locked in the top 4.

Not the final piece I was hoping the Canucks were going to add on D.

 

[Kryten]

I like him for the PK but yeah... mobility and zone exits are becoming a big concern.

Might have to split up the top pair

 

[Hansen]

All the lazy board and outs and turnovers from our own end killed us in the playoffs. We need more mobility.

At least this pushes Juulsen out but its a big meh from me. Id prefer Kylington at this deal

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Fine

 

[Peen]

Nasty

 

[God]

irrationally hate this signing because he's an oiler

rationally am starting to get concerned about puck moving ability from the back end

 

[Josepho]

Surely we sign an LD than has decent mobility at this point

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Also this reflects how management views Juulsen now. Just not a regular.

 

[MikeK]

First signing by management I hate. I really don't like this one. He's a borderline NHL player at best. This guy will frustrate fans all season long. He's an AHL player in my opinion.

 

[DFAC]

ugh. Wouldve much preferred Kylington

 

[VanillaCoke]

Good deal, was hoping to add Vinny he's going to be solid with actual coaches and systems.

This team and huge physical dmans is funny and I don't hate it.

 

[Peen]

Also this reflects how management views Juulsen now. Just not a regular.

They’re right about that. He was good for two goals against in the playoffs and towards the end of the year

This management team thinking Myers is a top 4 dman is worrisome. Why not let the off season play out and see if there any upgrades that can be made down the line. What a slow backend, going to be alot of high and hard off the glass nights.
