Edler looked mean last night and I was happy about that. maybe without the twins soft influence he will get his mean streak back - like his 2nd and 3rd year. that would be great. 4.5m average a season over 5 or 6 years would be good

I miss vanek, and so does boeser. But we signed Schaller and Beagle....and have a mgt that wonders where the offense is

That seems like a long contract for a player at this stage...

Do you want to keep bringing back Vanek and the twins and move up four spots or do you want your shot at top pick?

I like Edler but it will be interesting to see if people still want him back next year. Like I said you can have a completely new looking D . He will probably be a 20-25 pt D man and probably want 6-7 per .
- VANTEL

Knowing his purpose. I would throw out maybe a 1 year 5.5 and see what he thinks.

If a team has 250 goals a year , yes spread out the scoring . If a team has troubles scoring 100 goals then you stack them any way you can to score.

This D thing is tiresome IMO ( not directed at you)

We have the perfect roster to get a high pick maybe first over all. Edler MDZ Pouliot and Hutton all have expiring contracts and Hughes and OJ should be ready next year. Biega only makes 825 K so he can be easily sent down .

They also have 36 mil next year in cap space and there are many decent UFA D . You can have a whole new look back there or a partial new look.

This is a skip it year go directly passed go and collect your 200 bucks

- VANTEL


8m or so of that will go to boeser.
Edler will probably re up, take a home town discount of 15 percent plus the Benning bump of 40 percent and could get around a 2y 4m.
That's 12m
Benning could also sign two new bottom pairing LHD at 6m with a MNTC each to replace Hutton and pullout , you know to give time to hughes and OJ to develop the right way.
That's 24m.
Still lots of cap space to grab some offensive forwards I agree.

Tongue firmly planted in my cheek.

A lot of things can change between now and the start of next year . Will there be a new GM ? Will Canucks win first over all pick? Will they have a few first round picks?

I am leaning towards a whitewash on D but need to see how things go this year.

If the top 4 forwards next year are Brock Bo EP Hughes I would be going in the direction to change the D and throw a huge offer at Karlsson.

I think I am leaning towards making a lot of trades at TDL but we will see when we get there.
