I wasn’t either until these three 30 something year olds ended up sicker than sick and in the hospital. I’ve come this far what’s one more.

I chased it with a couple cold Ultras as it was a nice 39°C today. Golfing Grayhawk tomorrow morning.

Fair. Nice Grayhawk is great. You still need to checkout Eagle Moutain ! My (frank)ing air con broke yesterday. $10k 🤮

That stinks! A/C units don’t last more than ten years down here. If you’re lucky.

I swear I read something here that the Rangers were the 24th best cap efficiency team and Trouba was near the top of the list of bad contracts.
Analytics don't lie, Trouba is terrible.

Once Lake mead runs down another 2 feet, Arizona won't have any power to run those air-conditioners, never mind the Coyotes 300 seat arena.

Canucks historically haven’t drafted and developed high end D. One a decade like Ohlund, Edler and now QH not enough.

Is it draft variables or reliance on cutting corners? With no cap room what’s the likelihood of trades solving this?

Yes, I know.
I was being facetious.
The Rangers played deep into the playoffs and get a 24th rating and the Canucks didn't make playoffs and come in at 14th, sounds like some real good number skewing.

You do realize that they have Shea Weber on LTIR, don't you.
I would say Vegas is in a bit better cap situation than the Canucks.

According to capfriendly, the Canucks currently sit in 6th place in spending, ahead of Stanley Cup Champs, Colorado, the Rangers, Kings, Carolina and several other playoff teams.
Must mean the Canucks are good.

I looked at the cap crunch for next year.
UFAs
Bo
Miller
Kuz
Dowling
Schenn
Buroughs
Being up against the ceiling like they are, how are they going to resign the them?
Sure Dowling and Buroughs walk, but that only saves 1.5 mil and takes away depth. The D is so weak that they are playing Schenn more then they are paying him, so how do you replace or resign him?
And let's suppose Kuz plays like we all hope he does and comes in around 20 goals and 45 points. Where does the money come from to pay him? And that is not even getting to to obvious Bo and Miller salary questions.
The following year, Petey and Podz re-upping comes into play as well. At least the Myers deal will be up, but you still have to replace him at a top 4 salary rate with someone else or resign him.
This is not a Hater or Pom Pom issue, just basic economics
Man that Ek deal just sucks on so many levels.
