It doesn’t have to be linear, but when there is a weak ufa class combined with a to of extra cash available.
Post-Game Talk: GM 69 | Canucks def. Jets | 6-2 (Boeser x2, Suter x2, Hoglander, O’Connor) | Just as we all predicted!

Suter has $10M in career earnings to date. He could potentialy triple that with his next contract.

He's not a crazy skilled guy but lots of things pop on Karlsson for me: High motor, feisty, willing to go to the netfront and other dirty areas, smart positioning.
Thats a bit too high.
Doubt anyone goes above 3 years for him. 4 would be the absolute highest at around 3-3.5m per.
I would give Suter 5 years if it meant lower the AAV. He has so much utility and can up and down the lineup, I'm not really worried about that term. He's slow anyway so it's not like he'll drop off hard if he loses speed.

Still believe they should try to find a way to keep this roster together (for the most part) and add another top 6 C. They have great potential, just need a couple of forward pieces/moves. And hopefully more grit.
Wow, I'm in Hawaii so I couldn't watch the game but what a win! Canucks have had a tendency to over pass the puck a lot this year so it's great to see them convert a few of those tick tack toe plays this last week and actually break out offensively for a change. Keep it rolling!

I want to see the team be a consistent cup contender, not a squeak into the playoffs and get swept kind of team.
Sorry if you do bud
Since the Miller trade, Canucks have a positive differential in shots and expected goals. Unexpected.

They still need 2 impact top 6 forwards IMO
Getting their teeth kicked in against Utah but won in a convincing fashion against THE top team and scored 5 against the #1 goalie.
I can never understand this f***ing team.

What a pleasant surprise! We might still falter down the stretch but at least we've played up to the stiffer competition. Lots of guys had a lot more legs in this game, EP40's skating looks stronger, not close to previous seasons but better than so far this season.
Happy for Boeser, but he has to really step up for them to make the playoffs.
Honestly even if we get swept in the first round, the first step is for this team to make the playoffs consistently. It's baby steps here, I think we've forgotten that we were basement dwellers for 8 years.

If the Canucks had beaten Utah 6-2 and then lost to the Jets 3-1, it would have made perfect sense. But in the weird and wacky NHL, almost anything seems to be possible.
Canucks are currently tied with the Blues in points, but St. Louis has two more regulation wins. So Thursday's game is almost a 'must win'. Going three down in the ROW column, would probably be fatal.

Man, I wish we had Demko back, even as the 1B. I worry that we are going to ride Lankinen now and break him.

As far as predictions go,
Went on a hike up to Belcarra with a family friend.
I said no matter what, I'm sure I'll be surprised tonight.
And I was. 6-2 is not the result I thought we'd get, but it's the one I was hoping for.
I really do think this season has been like sitting on a bunch of gold.

They played twice in less than 24h, people don’t understand the effort required to compete at a world-class level.

Although Lekkerimaki wasn't prominent on the score-sheet with just one secondary assist--it was easily his best game as a Canuck so far.
I love his work on the PP along the left, half wall. The guys on the PK have to cheat to cover him because of his lethal release--and it opens up so much room or Quinn Hughes on the blueline. Hughes was at his 'ankle-breaking best' on that lone PP goal.
For a 20-year-old first year pro, Lekkerimaki has really done just about everything you could have expected or asked for. I really see a lot of Kyle Connor in his game. I think the Canucks really have a budding, special player in this kid.
