Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Thu May 14, 2020 6:46 am I think all along Tanev’s intention has been to test the open waters. He knows the Canucks are in a Cap bind. At the same I’m sure the Canucks mgmt have concerns about tying up huge sums in a D-man in his 30’s with an injury rap sheet bigger than Doyles disobedient public behaviour when boozing

I think there's a good chance he goes to UFA, but COVID puts him in a real bind. With no chance of a cap increase next season, and the spectre of declining caps still out there, he would be much more likely to get big money if he went UFA in '22 - after the Seattle money hits. In which case, he'd be better signing short-term, then swinging for the fences again in a couple years.

But, he might not make it to '22 with his injury luck.

So the reality is, very few teams will have the financial means to make a big offer to Tanev. Canucks could make a decent salary offer (Doyle's $5.5ish) on a short-term, or a team-friendly salary (maybe $4 mil x 4 years) on a longer term. I don't know if Tanev could get $5.5x4 years from another team in this UFA season.

I never told your little buddy 'no rumours'... I told him or her 'no linking to bullshit sites'.

(but of course I wasn't actually talking to him/her, I was talking to you amirite)

Are you sure? Doesn't matter. Was a great point though mm?

Well a bunch of us had a chat or two about it here and I assume those who didn't participate at least read it.

That's because you're a gomer.

Solid

Sorry man, but you and Doylie are gomers for ranking 19-min-per-game Tanev above 22-min-per-game Edler/Myers...

Tanev averaged 19:30 this season. He had a couple games where he got hurt in game in the first period and got two or three min of ice time. He gets NO PP time. Myers averaged 21:30 this season. Take out the two games that Tanev got a total of about 5 min and the PP time and the TOI is close to even. Tanev took more reps against better players and he and Hughes were used as a shutdown pair at times. Myers occasionally played a few minutes with Hughes but the Hughes and Tanev pairing were much more effective. Myers settles in on the bottom pairing in the second half of the year to shelter him and Fantenberg.


Tanev is the better player.

Tanev will be a Maple Laugh by christmas which means his game is circling the bowl. By the time xmas hits he will be corn chunks up and about to disappear down into the stink pit with a distinct gurgling sound

Corn chunks up Doyle. Think about it

I’m not advocating bringing him back. It’s time to get younger on the back end. I’m just stating the obvious. He was better than T Myers this season.

Even with Tanev in the lineup the team has struggled to clear their zone under pressure until this year. Hughes skating pucks out has really helped keep Tanev from getting hurt and i am firmly on board with letting him walk barring a sizeable discount to stay...which isnt happening

I think they will re-sign him (for a reasonable budgetary medium term contract. I'll tell ya what, Wizz, I will bet you 5 dollars this happens and
we can make that an extra 5 bucks attached to our next donation to the site when the time comes around, payed by the loser of this bet and yes,
the winner will crow about it boldly. The loser will have to say "you were right and I was wrong and be gosh darn sincere about it for all to bare witness to. just betting with one person cause, I remember what almost happened with Rocky Dennis.

Whats with the betting?

dunno if you guys have heard the rumor bout virtanen banging petey's girl.

This was back in first week of march when it got leaked. It got passed around in group chats and then hit the longshoreman group chats then got to the point where it hit twitter. So getting confirmation from one of stetcher's richmond buddies who works for the city. It circled around again, asked sat shah from sportsnet650 and he claimed the media guys have heard of this rumor as well.

Who knows if its true, but its got legs. Virtanen isnt very liked on the team, so he can be why toffoli was brought in. That 3rd line RW spot can belong to lievo for the year. In hopes that virtanen can bring us a young dman back.

Jeezus. Time to drop the damned puck already.

Soooo Kesler poked Schneider’s gal. Willie Mitchell fucked Ohlund’s wife, Jeff Brown nailed Leslie McLean and now Virtanen is pounding Petey’s gal.

Some fans have too much time on their hands.

Well... if it was on the Longshoreman's group chats, you just KNOW it's gotta true!

Petey cuckolded by shotgun?
