Some players are already in town. It wouldn’t surprise me if they start skating together this/next week.

I wouldn't pay any goalie 10 mill a year

10 mill that's just what it costs the bruins to re-sign him. it's what arbitration gets you.

Swayman declined filing for arbitration. Felt his leverage high enough without it.

i hope they do, more wear and tear after having a long and late finals (june 24th).

no, i mean he's not doing the bruins any favours after they put him through arbitration in 2023. he was openly bitter about the experience.

Feels like I need a fix, give me a pto atleast allvin..

Surprised we haven't signed Gustav Lindstrom yet, seems too obvious .

When have we ever had a GM that turned into a drug

Seriously this guy plans his moves around dosing levels

Shouldn't be too surprised. He's a poor skater who isn't 6'7" or taller.

Announce the Lankinen signing and Poolman trade kowurds

Not close enough to training camp yet. We have to be convinced that nothing is going to happen and then BAM trade announcement.

but swede ..

Why? Not big, 35 pts in 174 games, so little offence. -25 career +/- . we have lots of people who fit the roll of 7 - 8th D men. His only plus side I see is he is about the age where swedes start to bloom.

We have a bloom I believe they prefer the word Prosper anyway

Maybe he's from the wrong town. Like Filip Johansson was a former Leksands guy (same as Allvin).

Announce the Lankinen signing and Poolman trade kowurds

They have an offer out on Lankinen, his bargaining position has increased post-Askarov trade as the only decent goalie on the market ... he's probably going to get something better than we can afford. Poolman ... eh maybe, but I doubt it. I'm also not sure you should rush into any goalie transaction given their are some teams carrying three goalies and something quality could come up on the waivers, or in trade, relatively shortly.

Demko is going to be ready sooner than later. Even if he returns late October/early November, that’s 8-9 weeks from now. Is Lankinen neccesary?

If Demko’s out for the rest of 2024, then I guess, but don’t think that’s da case.

 

[VanillaCoke]

I'd look at Blackwood for Poolman + late pick swap. Blackwood's cap hit is less than Poolman's so you'd end up with slightly more capspace.

I still want this to happen.

He's probably worth it at a particular salary. Even when Demko is back Silovs can start 50+ games in the AHL and you'd run a Demko/Lankinen combo. Canucks made him an offer so obviously they have a number in mind.

 

[David71]

wonder if theres any more pto offers in terms of defence. wouldnt hurt to try either justin schutlz or kevin shattenkirk.

You really want to rely on Demko after his injury history the last few years? Need some insurance there no matter what

 

[Bertuzzzi44]

Canucks were playing with house money last season but are rolling into this year as a top 5 contender, the pressure Is ON for a great season and deep Playoff run. If the team doesn’t reach at least round 3 of the playoffs it’ll be considered a failure of a season. Big expectations with added pressure to deliver. Looking forward to seeing what this team is made of, Go Canucks Go!
