Forge Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 I didn't even think about it, but Francis also bypassed Zadorov for freaking Quenneville and he could have flipped Z for a pick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They currently have OEL, Myers, Hamonic, Poolman, Rathbone, Schenn and Hunt signed and their RFAs are Juolevi and Hughes. Hughes-Myers OEL-Hamonic Rathbone-Poolman Hunt and Schenn rotate in? If you figure out the Canucks plan maybe you could tell Benning.🤠 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I read about another trade this offseason I literally say out loud "Seattle should have done that". Especially when it comes to Arizona moves. Literally Seattle asked for Cam York to Take Ghosts contract....what is that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey5djh Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Ron Francis' handiwork so far: ~16.4 mil left in cap space (10th most remaining in NHL) Additional picks: 4th in 2022, 2nd and 4th in 2023 Depth chart based on Cap hit: Schwartz - Gourde - Eberle Tanev - Wennberg - Donskoi McCann - Jarnkrok - Appleton Twarynski - Blackwell - Bastian Giordano - Larsson Oleksiak - Dunn Soucy - Fleury Lauzon - Borgen Cholowski Grubauer Driedger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey5djh Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Overall its a solid defensive team but 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GW21 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Seems like we overpaid for Kuemper, but he's definitely a solid goaltender when healthy. Seems like we really boxed ourselves into a corner letting Grubi hit the market. Sucks to lose Timmins, but I don't think it's the end of the world. I wish we could have sent Johnson as a part of the deal instead, but luckily we've got a number of guys in our system that should be ready in short order.

It was definitely an overpay, but yeah, you were caught between a rock and a hard place. On the bright side, the first round pick will be super late, so unlikely to yield anything great, and there's no telling what Timmins is moving forward and the concussion issue will always loom large. For an overpay, there's a chance that it amounts to absolutely nothing lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Seattle also signs another LW (Nick Ritchie?). Schwartz - Gourde - Eberle McCann - Wennberg - Donskoi Tanev/UFA - Jarnkrok - Appleton Tanev/UFA - Blackwell - Bastian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 (edited) Just looked at Buffalo's roster. Dahlin and Joker are both about to have a +/- in the -50 range lol. Dahlin - Jokiharju Butcher - Miller Hagg - Pysyk Craig Anderson - Aaron Dell Woof. It's Buffalo vs Arizona for the right to draft Shane Wright.

Honestly I’m more bummed out about shipping Gravy out of town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I've never seen a player completely melt down a franchise before. All this because of Tom Wilson 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It goes through ages 25-30. You know they will trade him that last year. So they get the very best of him prime, someone else overpays for his over 30 years, you get assets back at 30. If you're going to buy out at least 3 ufa years (may have been 4), it's going to hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
