What about bringing back the old dog Luke Schenn? 2 years left on his contract, got a bit paid but prolly what he is worth with the rising cap

They’d have to take Desharnais too.

Or Myers

 

[JT Milker]

If he works out, I'd hope to pay his rise in term rather than dollar amount. Basically, offer him the same deal Tanev got from the Leafs: 4.5x6.

Of course, this assumes he works out first.



Nobody is taking Desharnais. Fortunately, if worse comes to worse, he's mostly buriable.

Unfortunately there’s a cap.

I still don't know why a team with contending aspirations would want a guy like Jiricek, who can't crack a developing team's roster in Columbus and is mad about it. Even tonight, he had 2:30 of ice time in the first. Do people really think Tocchet is going to be easier on him than Evason in Columbus?

If this were Vancouver 2 years ago, I'd consider it more heavily, but where the team is in it's cycle it's way too risky to be giving up assets for a guy who's a big question mark.

Vancouver's probably scouting Provorov and Carlo today, although I doubt Carlo would be available given his age. Lindholm remains my dream acquisition, but the injury puts a major dent in that dream.

Because Jiricek will be a stud with good coaching and in a good situation.

no failed exits is attempts to clear the zone that don't cross the line. just wiring it up ice for a turnover counts as an exit as long as it clears the zone

Yeah but then you’ve just iced the puck if you aren’t killing.
