This is the best Jake has looked in vancouver. Hes assertive and snarly.Doyle Hargraves wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2019 7:18 pmHe’s the team’s sixth D man. I’d be more concerned that the bottom two lines can’t sustain ANY pressure in the other teams end. Lines 3 and 4 are getting murdered out there so far.
Has nothing to do with hate. They want Nikita back and there is some hearsay as this is an option that management might be looking at. A healthy Tanev is obviously a greater asset than Stecher, but if this team is starting to contend for playoffs, extending Tanev like they did with Edler makes sense.
Tryamkin is probably a better player than Stecher but he will want some pretty good jack to even think about coming back. And he also didn’t like his ice time last time. So he’s gonna like being on the third pair again? And if they are in a race they aren’t trading Tanev. And alas where is the cap room coming from this season?Hank wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2019 7:27 pmHas nothing to do with hate.

If it's down to having the 6'7" Russian and one of Tanev and Stecher, I'm buying Trojan a Compass card to get to the airport himself.

People are over rating Tryamkin, he was healthy scratched last season in the K.Hank wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2019 7:41 pm Who knows man? I'm just reading all this stuff that Tryamkin is interested in coming back and the two sides are talking.
It's obviously for next season and it would be crazy for management not to start thinking about how they would do this. Yeah, they're not moving Tanev if they're contending for the wildcard. I have no idea if he's matured, if he's willing to play behind Myers and Tanev, who needs to move to gain cap, etc.
If it can be done, I'm all for it because that D with Tryamkin (minus a current Dman) would be pretty amazing.

Maybe the move Tanev, give #8 to Gaudette (his college number) and hand #88 to the big baby.

He should bump stretcher out of the lineup. Thats a much stronger looking 6 dmen i have to say
Hyperbole-much? I'm not really seeing the hate.
He takes a pretty good beating in the GDT’s. I don’t plan to look it up and post a bunch of quotes. Then again there was a poster in the GDT saying that Baertschi scored at a 60 point pace..... not sure if that was hyperbole or just piss poor math.ESQ wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2019 9:26 pmThe Brown Wizard wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2019 6:10 pm

I'd much prefer Tryamkin over Stech going into the playoffs. A bottom pairing of Benn-Tryamkin would be great. They can throw their weight around and be tuff to play against.The Brown Wizard wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2019 6:10 pm He should bump stretcher out of the lineup.

If we extend Tan-man, I think he would have to take a paycut and sign short-term like Edler. I think we'll be lucky to get 60 games out of him, but maybe playing with Hughes is the tonic he needs for a healthy season. Maybe when Hughes is on the ice, we'll have much better possession time, so we're not defending the whole time and Tanev is not taking hits and blocking shots all nite.

You must be thinking of when he was healthy scratched with the National team (16 months ago).
