  1. If we could get zaddy and lindholm for the same cap hit as petey I like it. only problem is how do we get a winger for petey? If we sign lindholm do we deploy lindy with petey?
  2. I really hope we get after their defence tonight and attack the net. Win or lose. If we dont have that hungry attitude and bring it to them I will be very disappointed. This is a team that can be pushed and break. They have many weak points, and we cant jus play back and let them play their game.
  3. Edmonton media is saying they want Skinner to play game 6. Is that crazy? Pickard played better last game than any previous game of Edmonton goaltending. I mean I understand Skinner can be better.. But are we not excited if Skinner is back in net for game 6?
  4. Kane is also trying to draw penalty’s like crazy any time he’s around z he’s kicking back his head or flailing his arms out trying to sell something it’s ridiculous
  5. He was a. Monster soucy and our system in the playoffs really set Myers up to shine he was unreal
  6. Id be comfortable giving him the term. Seeing how Myers contract aged makes me feel good about Zadorov. Especially considering there should be significant cap growth. Drance did a piece on how big dmen like these guys are a rare profile and they seem to age better.
  7. Different positions, different situations, different players, different egos lers try it!
  8. I think it’s situationally they need to move moreS our entries suck it can’t just be enter and get to your position it’s so easy for a PK this is probably situationally so when miller enters he can keep moving down the half wall and if the rotation happens he could end up net front I’m hoping for this^
  9. There's no way we will see 5 changes to the forward group in lines and roster moves. 2-3 Max. Coach pretty much said he wont be splitting our top two lines up. I am with you though I want to see Lindholm and Petey reunited and Hoglander put on the fourth line: ButI have a feeling we could see this: Suter-Miller-Boeser Joshua-Lindholm-Garland PDG-Petey-Lekkerimaki Hoglander-Blueger-Mikehyev He cant really mess with our two match up lines vs Mcdavid and Leon. PDG is good on the forecheck and on the wall. Since Mik has been to soft on the forecheck his speed has been useless so maybe fourth Line deployment for Mik with Hoglander Blueger can really simplify things for him. Hoglander can play 10 Minutes of wrecking ball hockey maybe get a forechecking goal on Pickard, someone hes scored on before. PDG-Petey-Lekkeriamki Deployment can be sheltered to offensive zone softer starts and MCleod matchups as we have the home line change adv Petey can also be doubled situationally with other lines if we were to load up at times. It sounds crazy because I dont know if JL has th strength, pace, details to play NHL hockey let alone play off hockey. But a few things are certain.. The team is high on him, he did get a NA taste, he does have a higher skill profile then another option available and he does have an NHL shot. He could provide an offensive boost for Petey playing on adrenaline. FOOD FOR THOUGHT BED TIME
  10. I like that world I will join you there. I mean we have to hope for that. I just cant help but think he needs to really focus on his lower body strength the next two summers. And keep working on his mental health to be able to rebound from adversity quick. His interview today to me looked like a guy very upset with himself. Like hypothetically Mikeyev should be a good fit for Petey and Lekkeriamki its just hard to imagine them being successful right now. especially with hoglander as the other wing like you said. Tuch I dont think is possible Anderson I prefer not Crouse would be overpriced to get but would be a good fit I think I think hes going to be a really big UFA signing he could even get 10+ if he just goes for most money. I dont see us being able to sign Guentzel though with Petey on the team. It was just an idea if there is even a world of fiction where we can move Petey and Hronek and not take step back next year.
  11. To have fun with roster projecting and in the unrealistic world Petey was traded: Hoglander and pods could rotate depending on who's playing better. Trade Hronek and Petey to Ottawa for Tkachuk and Bostons late first round pick this year. ( I understand Petey isn't getting traded and the likelihood of signing a deal like that then being moved to Ottawa is highly unlikely) The slim chance I could see it happen. Management tells Petey we did everything you wanted, believed in you and you no showed when it mattered most. We have to make a fundamental change and give you a fresh start. Tkachuk could want out of Ottawa, what a fit for him here in Vancouver with Miller, Hughes and Boeser. Especially considering the Hughes connection. Hronek is a piece I could see Ottawa wanting and then they could trade Chychrun easier and have much more balanced top 4 pairings. Ottawa I could see them gambling on Petey deal, they have a nice Swedish history there too and love having a superstar / franchise player already on term. Petey could be humbled by the experience and have a monster rebound and career with them. - Management clearly loves Guentzel. Hes been unreal this playoffs having him and Tkachuk added to our top 6 would be unreal. either Could play with miller or lindholm for different looks. The PP would have serious competition with these 5 fighting for the 4 forwards spots: Miller Tkachuk Boeser Guentzel Lindholm Hughes When lekkeriamaki is ready I could see him slotting in beside Lindholm. And perhaps our second PP unit the year after would be: PP1: Miller Tkachuk Boeser Guentzel - Hughes PP2: Lindholm Lekkeriamki Garland Joshua - Willander The problem for me is I do not see a future line of: Hoglander-Petey-Lekkeriamki hard to visualize them being a successful playoff line so I think changes need to be made. Suter with Dak and Garland gives Raty another season to get NHL ready. Tanev / Myers a perfect bridge for Willander. Wilanders rookie year he could pair with Zadorov potentially too. - Just having fun with it but it would be a pretty cool roster. Lots of playoff kinda guys.
