NHL free agent period has opened. 26 00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:24.439 So far, nothing from the Canucks we talked to yesterday 27 00:01:24.599 --> 00:01:28.519 about the possibility of them acquiring a veteran defenseman, Connor 28 00:01:28.519 --> 00:01:32.959 Clifton from the Pittsburgh Penguins, Zach Bogosian from the Minnesota Wild. 29 00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:36.280 Looks like Zach Bogosian is going to extend with the 30 00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:41.120 Minnesota Wild. Ian Cole we talked about, not just yesterday 31 00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:43.959 but over the past couple of weeks about the possibility 32 00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:47.719 of him returning. It's not going to happen. Ian Cole 33 00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:50.719 has signed a one year deal, thirty seven year old defenseman, 34 00:01:50.840 --> 00:01:56.040 former Canuck, one year deal four point seventy five average 35 00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:59.599 annual value with the Chicago black Hawks. We got the 36 00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:02.640 free agent board here, Derek, if you don't mind, Okay, 37 00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:05.239 So this is what we know so far, and again 38 00:02:05.319 --> 00:02:08.199 this is a moving target. There'll be some other information 39 00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:11.240 coming down during the body of the show. Matt zukerrella 40 00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:14.360 from the Minnesota Wild. He goes to the Kings one year, 41 00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:19.080 one million dollars. A veteran winger was speaking. You know, 42 00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:23.120 whenever I watched the Wild play, I noticed him and 43 00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:25.800 this goes back to his days with the New York 44 00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:29.919 Rangers as well, So the Kings get him. King's also 45 00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:32.120 going to jump ahead to the third name on this list, 46 00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:35.439 Corey Perry back with the LA Kings. Remember he spent 47 00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:37.759 the end of last year going to the Kings to 48 00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:41.000 the Tampa Bayle Level goes back to LA one year, 49 00:02:41.080 --> 00:02:45.039 one million dollars. He's forty one years old. Good for him, Yeah, 50 00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:49.639 all right, hanging in there like Matt's zucarella. Mason Marchmant meanwhile, 51 00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:55.479 goes from San Jose five years, seven million dollar average 52 00:02:55.680 --> 00:02:59.759 annual value. And the first thing I thought of, and look, 53 00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:02.520 Mason Marchmant does agree. You can say what you want 54 00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:04.759 about him. And you know a lot of comments on 55 00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:08.000 Twitter about night and overpayment by the San Jose Sharks. 56 00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:11.680 That's what happens during free agency. But you got Mason 57 00:03:11.719 --> 00:03:14.840 Marchman and Keifer Srwood on the same team in terms 58 00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:17.520 of getting under the opponent's skin, they're going to do that. 59 00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:20.039 That's not a not a bad idea. So there you go. 60 00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:24.000 Ian Cole fourth name on this list has signed with 61 00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:28.639 the Chicago Blackhawks one year from Utah one year, four 62 00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:31.759 point seventy five million dollars, so so much for him 63 00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:34.439 returning to the Vancouver Canucks. And then you talk about 64 00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:39.919 former Cannucks Iliam mckayev signs with Tampa Bay four years 65 00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:44.080 coming over from Chicago three point eighty five million dollars 66 00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:47.719 average annual value. And I don't think anybody who watched 67 00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:50.479 Iliam mckayv in Vancouver and he had the knee issues 68 00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:53.919 here would would think that he would last this much 69 00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:57.000 or this much longer in the national hockey did well 70 00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:58.039 in Chicago, Chicago. 71 00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:01.520 Did you know what he did in Chicago outpriced himself. 72 00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:05.039 They tried to resign Ilia mchabb but they didn't. They 73 00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:08.120 couldn't give that term and that money. Donny, if you 74 00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:10.719 don't mind, I want to say this about Ian Cole. 75 00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:13.680 It came down to Chicago and Vancouver. Don he picked 76 00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:17.920 the Blackhawks over Vancouver. Cole would have been that culture 77 00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:21.800 leadership signing. Cannocks made a very strong offer. When I 78 00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:24.319 say a strong offer, like I'm telling you they were 79 00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:26.600 in it. It came down to Chicago and Vancouver for 80 00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:30.240 Ian Cole. This is the guy they identified to help 81 00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:34.000 the Ze Williams, to help the Tom Millanders, the young 82 00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:38.279 Peterson defenseman culture like Brendan Gallagher. They identified this guy 83 00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:40.959 as a culture guy, Ian Cole. It came down to 84 00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:43.920 Vancouver Chicago. He picked the Blackhawks. From what I was told, 85 00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:46.319 it was not an easy decision. He thought about it 86 00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:49.439 a long time and then got the done deal done 87 00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:53.160 with the Blackhawks. He really really thought about Vancouver, but 88 00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:57.560 Donny Canocks made an incredible offer to Ian Cole. 89 00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:04.160 He just picked chicag Meanwhile, with their attention now turned 90 00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:06.720 to Connor Clifton. Of the players that we've brought up 91 00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:09.120 over the last week or so in terms of a 92 00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:13.720 veteran defenseman helping out the young defenseman thirty one years old, 93 00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:17.040 it has been he's kicked around the NHL since twenty eighteen, 94 00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:21.160 American defenseman from New Jersey right hand ed. Does their 95 00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:23.399 attention turn to him now? 96 00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:26.279 I would think, yeah, So, Connor Clifton's a guy. They 97 00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:29.519 did look into don but he the Canucks are out 98 00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:32.240 on Clifton. But I want to say this to you, 99 00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:35.319 I wonder if the Canucks turned their attention to Luke Schen. 100 00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:38.079 I know you've been a fan of Shen's. 101 00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:38.839 Who is it? 102 00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:41.439 Who is so? 103 00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:43.959 If you missed out on Cole who is the culture 104 00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:46.720 leadership guy? Do you turn your attention to Luke Chen? 105 00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:50.680 I'm going to be monitoring whether the Canucks are looking 106 00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:54.519 into Luke Schen. I was told this morning there was interest. 107 00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:57.240 I don't know how much. But now that they've lost 108 00:05:57.240 --> 00:05:59.560 Cole do they turn their attention to Luke Shan for 109 00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:00.560 that vetter and guy in the blaue. 110 00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:03.240 Yeah, Luke Shen moving from Winnipeg to Buffalo at the end, 111 00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:05.079 didn't get a lot of ice time, but no disas 112 00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:08.120 during there. He didn't play much during their playoffs during 113 00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:13.000 their post season. Okay. Meanwhile, there's also been some extensions. 114 00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:14.560 Now I don't think this is going to show up 115 00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:18.160 on our board, but arguably I don't think it's arguable, 116 00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:22.600 but Rasmus Anderson the number one target in free agency 117 00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:25.720 going into the start of the free agency period for 118 00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:28.079 the National Hockey League. Where it is he is going 119 00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:32.160 to extend with the Vegas Golden Knights, But there have 120 00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:35.639 been other and there have been other contract extensions around 121 00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:37.720 the National Hockey League. And there you go. Bow and 122 00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:42.879 byrom former Vancouver Giant the trade a few days ago, 123 00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:46.759 moving on from Buffalo to Chicago six years look at 124 00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:51.480 his average annual value Eric twelve and a half million dollars. 125 00:06:51.480 --> 00:06:53.759 Just seems like yesterday we were watching him at the LEC. 126 00:06:54.040 --> 00:06:56.480 Yeah, but you know who's going to blow past that number. 127 00:06:56.519 --> 00:06:58.879 A couple of guys named Quinn Hughes and Cale mccarr. 128 00:06:58.920 --> 00:06:59.959 Can't wait for those deals. 129 00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:00.639 Thanks for that. 130 00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:03.680 Oh boy, I think he's the highest paid defenseman in 131 00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:05.839 the NHL right now. Boom biroum, Yeah he is. Yeah, 132 00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:08.199 that's just the highest cap hit for defenseman. 133 00:07:09.279 --> 00:07:12.199 Michael Dick is the new general manager and head coach 134 00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:15.319 of the Vancouver Giants. He's going to join us around 135 00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:20.600 eleven fifteen or so. He was one of Bowenbyro's coaches 136 00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:25.240 with the Vancouver Giants. Get his thoughts on that. I've 137 00:07:25.240 --> 00:07:30.319 been demied off with Montreal extens eight years, nine point 138 00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:34.639 one two five million dollars average annual value. That could 139 00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:37.920 turn out to be an outstanding deal for the Montreal Canadians. 140 00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:40.040 Look the kids getting nine point one two five and 141 00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:42.160 you know, Lord knows down the road he might talk 142 00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:45.480 about him being undervalued, but this could end up being 143 00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:47.439 a very good deal at the very least for the 144 00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:48.360 Montreal Canadians. 145 00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:50.360 He's a young superstar don and this is what you 146 00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:52.279 got to do is pay these kids this kind of 147 00:07:52.279 --> 00:07:55.360 money come coming out of entry level deals. You know, 148 00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:57.120 there was a time when kids would come out of 149 00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:00.199 entry level deals and get maybe two three million. Now 150 00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:02.399 they're coming out of their rookie contracts and look at 151 00:08:02.439 --> 00:08:04.319 this going from one million to nine. 152 00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:07.160 It's the way the NHL, well, the salary cap going 153 00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:09.680 up to one hundred and four million dollars, and a 154 00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:11.279 lot of teams I'm not sure if this is the 155 00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:14.480 case with Montreal it is with Vancouver. They got to 156 00:08:14.480 --> 00:08:16.879 reach the floor. They got to reach The Canucks right 157 00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:20.600 now are seven million dollars around seven million dollars over 158 00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:24.000 the floor right now, But that's pending a deal of 159 00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:28.439 what's gonna happen with with Jake Debrusk, what's gonna happen 160 00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:33.120 with Brock Besser or maybe Philip Paronic If those players leave, 161 00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:35.679 what does that mean in terms of the floor and 162 00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:40.000 the Vancouver Canucks. Okay, Nico, he's sure captain of New Jersey. 163 00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:41.519 No surprise surprise there. 164 00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:44.200 He didn't want to go anywhere, and they they started 165 00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:46.360 gaining traction on a deal a couple of weeks ago. 166 00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:49.600 So that's a big piece. His name pops up in 167 00:08:49.879 --> 00:08:51.759 trade momors all the time, but he's not going anywhere. 168 00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:52.879 He's got a new five year. 169 00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:56.919 Deal eleven point seven million dollars a b aa V 170 00:08:57.159 --> 00:08:59.120 for he's here for a podcast listeners. 171 00:08:59.240 --> 00:09:01.799 That's a that's a pretty good number if you're if 172 00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:05.600 you're the Devil's and then Dan Vladar, the goaltender. He 173 00:09:06.039 --> 00:09:08.519 played a big role in the Flyers making the playoffs 174 00:09:08.799 --> 00:09:10.720 and getting the Round two. So he gets five point 175 00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:12.879 five uh. 176 00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:16.039 Seemingly out of nowhere. With Flaidar coming over from Calgary 177 00:09:16.039 --> 00:09:18.279 and ends up being a franchise goaltender. I think it 178 00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:20.080 could be a great deal for the for the Flyers. 179 00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:23.320 And then rad Co Goodis we you know a few 180 00:09:23.399 --> 00:09:26.559 days ago he gets acquired from Anaheim Mad They're going 181 00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:28.519 to be a tough team with the Kachuks and and 182 00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:33.480 gooddess you know Brad More Shawn six year extension with 183 00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:36.960 is that right? Six years Ryan for rad Cool Goodis 184 00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:40.639 one or lookod I knew my glass this year at 185 00:09:40.679 --> 00:09:44.240 one point five million for a rad Co Goodis, They're 186 00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:46.120 going to be a piece of work Florida. There's so 187 00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:50.919 many expectations on Florida of course earlier this week acquiring 188 00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:54.000 Jacob Marx from Most like Nebrowski's on his way out 189 00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:56.360 of Florida. Uh, they're going to be a piece of 190 00:09:56.399 --> 00:09:58.440 work of Florida. A lot of expectations, so you wonder 191 00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:01.759 if you'll be they'll be able to live up to them. 192 00:10:01.879 --> 00:10:03.759 All Right, what else? Got anything else happening? 193 00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:06.120 So we're gonna keep an eye on. The Canucks are 194 00:10:06.159 --> 00:10:10.519 looking for obviously Donnie a defenseman, some veteran d they 195 00:10:10.559 --> 00:10:14.600 lost for Berth, they lost Joseph Pierre Olivier, and so 196 00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:16.720 they're also looking for a tough guy out they're done. 197 00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:21.440 So tough guys are getting paid. They like the guy 198 00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:24.200 in Anaheim named Jeffrey Veel. But I'm hearing through the 199 00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:26.480 grapevine he might get as much as three million done 200 00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:28.559 on a new deal. I don't think the Canucks can 201 00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:29.159 afford that. 202 00:10:29.399 --> 00:10:32.240 And yet, but you still have to take consideration that 203 00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:35.440 floor with the Connucks, like one hundred and four million, 204 00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:37.879 I expected to go up in the next couple of 205 00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:42.360 years as well. Each year they have to be concerned 206 00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:45.919 about the floor as much as exceeding that. You hope 207 00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:48.200 they don't come close. Give them. The situation they're in, 208 00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:51.799 the rebuilding situation. You hope they don't come close to 209 00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:54.200 exceeding the cap. They got to be worried about the floor, 210 00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:56.960 like we were talking about earlier. Absolutely, and so maybe 211 00:10:57.039 --> 00:10:59.080 maybe a contract like that is a possibility, is what 212 00:10:59.159 --> 00:10:59.799 I'm trying to say. 213 00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:02.559 Are looking for de veteran if they can get a couple. 214 00:11:02.919 --> 00:11:05.279 They're looking for tough guy. They're also looking for centers. 215 00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:07.519 Eric Hall as a guy that went to LA and 216 00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:09.799 they checked in on him. Kevin Stunlin is a guy 217 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:11.799 I want you to keep an eye on Utah six 218 00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:14.159 three big centermen. Keep an eye on him. The Canucks 219 00:11:14.200 --> 00:11:16.840 are showing interest there. Canucks had no interest in North 220 00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:19.320 Vancouver native Colton Scissons. Who's going to Toronto. 221 00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:22.559 He helped Vegas during their postseason three times. 222 00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:25.080 And Donnie, let me get this in what did the 223 00:11:25.080 --> 00:11:27.919 Canucks do two years going July first? They signed Keith 224 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:31.440 for sure? Sure what to a two year, three good deal? Yeah, 225 00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:34.039 so this is what they need to do in a rebuild. 226 00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:36.039 And they signed and they traded him for a couple 227 00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:37.480 of draft picks, second round picks. 228 00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:40.360 So if you're the Canucks, you're looking for Keifer, Sure, 229 00:11:40.360 --> 00:11:41.399 what type deals? 230 00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:42.159 Two years? 231 00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:44.639 The guy comes here, takes off and then you can 232 00:11:44.679 --> 00:11:46.799 trade him at the deadline for two second round picks. 233 00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:50.600 That's the type of value deals Vancouver should be looking for. 234 00:11:51.080 --> 00:11:51.960 Is Key for sure? 235 00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:55.279 What type guys two years and then you sell them 236 00:11:55.399 --> 00:11:56.960 in a year, year and a half. 237 00:11:56.759 --> 00:12:00.480 Out a king's ransom? Yeah? No more Messi or Louis 238 00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:03.320 Erickson's right. Yeah. 239 00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:06.200 And by the way, Viell just got five years in 240 00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:08.919 Tampa Bay at two point five. There's no way the 241 00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:10.320 Canucks could have done that deal. 242 00:12:10.759 --> 00:12:14.759 No way. Okay, Canucks Development Camp Day two on the 243 00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:18.000 ice today in Abbotsford. We'll talk about that a little 244 00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:21.519 bit more later. You mentioned Pierre Olivier Joseph for whatever 245 00:12:21.559 --> 00:12:25.279 you called him, Pierre Olivier Joseph moving on from the 246 00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:30.159 Canucks wearing number seven, And we speculated about this yesterday. 247 00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:35.240 Brendan Gallagher coming over from the Montreal Canadians, former Vancouver Giant, 248 00:12:35.639 --> 00:12:38.559 is going to wear number seven for the Vancouver Canucks. 249 00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:40.919 Number seven, and look at him. He had the class 250 00:12:40.960 --> 00:12:44.200 to understand what was happening with Wayne Mackey and to 251 00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:47.000 make the switch. How about that don somebody else that 252 00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:49.840 came here, you know, didn't have that same class. 253 00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:54.679 Yeah. A long line, a long line of players from 254 00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:58.159 BC who have worn the number seven for the Vancouver Canucks. 255 00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:02.159 A Brandon Gallagher, Cliff Ronning, Gary Loopool, Brendan Morrison. I 256 00:13:02.200 --> 00:13:05.799 believe Nick Patan wore the number seven as well. I 257 00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:07.840 remember well a couple of things with the number seven 258 00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:11.159 for the Vancouver Canucks. One of my first favorite players 259 00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:15.080 with the Canucks Andrey Budreah. Remember Andrea bud Always remember 260 00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:17.080 when he's scoring a goal. When the Kaducks were two 261 00:13:17.080 --> 00:13:20.559 mans short against Chicago, the coliseum went went one of 262 00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:24.399 their early great players, Andrea Boudrea, the first player to 263 00:13:24.440 --> 00:13:26.799 wear number seven. The other thing I remember about number seven. 264 00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:30.440 Remember Chris Zimmerman, who's in the Canucks' front office, and 265 00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:33.840 I came up with this campaign that he stole from 266 00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:36.399 the Seattle Seahawks, and they were going to retire number 267 00:13:36.399 --> 00:13:39.159 seven for the fans. They put up a banner, had 268 00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:43.159 a big ceremony, the whole bit. It never took never, 269 00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:44.240 it never happened. 270 00:13:44.600 --> 00:13:46.879 Hey, seven, Pitt Martin was seven? 271 00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:50.639 Was he? Yes? Yes? Who doesn't remember? I believe the 272 00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:54.559 first player to play is one thousandth game in Vancouver 273 00:13:55.159 --> 00:13:58.519 as one thousandth NHL game as a remember the Vancouver 274 00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:02.159 Canucks Lyndon Vay were Carson SUSSI, but we don't want 275 00:14:02.159 --> 00:14:03.080 to go through every. 276 00:14:02.919 --> 00:14:05.000 Every seven Pitt Martin, I remember Pitt Martin. 277 00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:07.360 David Booth as well. How are we doing? Ryan? How 278 00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:10.799 are you? How are you busy? Morning? He saw anything 279 00:14:10.919 --> 00:14:13.320 new because Rick and I have been doing the show. 280 00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:15.799 Any signings or extensions in the last couple of minutes. 281 00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:21.440 The one interesting one is the Winnipeg Jets have signed 282 00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:24.600 Stuart Skinner two years, three point seventy. 283 00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:26.600 Five Connor Hellibuck And why would they be. 284 00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:29.759 Doing that outside of a Connor Hellibuck trade? 285 00:14:29.799 --> 00:14:32.120 Well, you know what with Stuart Skinner and what was 286 00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:36.799 the deal for two years three seven five relatively? And look, 287 00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:40.279 is he the perfect goaltender by but by no means, 288 00:14:40.279 --> 00:14:42.000 but he was making two and a half million dollars 289 00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:44.000 a year. Do you think the olders wouldn't want to 290 00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:46.679 have that deal back? That was like, honestly, but it 291 00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:49.000 was time for him to go and it wasn't you know, 292 00:14:49.799 --> 00:14:51.720 in the opinion of a lot of people who live 293 00:14:51.759 --> 00:14:55.039 at Evanson or Fall the oilers, because there was just 294 00:14:55.080 --> 00:14:57.600 so much noise about him. They have to improve their goaltending, 295 00:14:57.679 --> 00:14:59.759 so they make this I would say desperate move, but 296 00:14:59.759 --> 00:15:02.679 look looking back for what he for what he did 297 00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:05.399 two and a half million dollars in the finals twice. 298 00:15:06.200 --> 00:15:09.320 I'm okay with that. Yeah, they like to have he 299 00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:11.720 goes to Winnipeg, which means are we going to see 300 00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:14.399 a Connor Heill but move in the future by the 301 00:15:14.399 --> 00:15:18.639 Winnipeg jests as has been rumored. Yeah, nothing else. Maverick Bork, 302 00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:19.480 we didn't talk about. 303 00:15:19.639 --> 00:15:19.679 No. 304 00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:22.240 The trade this morning. The r f A. He's going 305 00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:26.000 to Nashville has been really good. Bray Maverick Bork out 306 00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:28.559 of Dallas, that that was the trade to Nashville. 307 00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:31.720 Chris McFarlane, man, Dallas was able to make a move. Yeah. 308 00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:34.080 If you have been following along last night and. 309 00:15:34.240 --> 00:15:38.159 They were offer sheet, they were petrified of an offer sheet. 310 00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:40.919 This is why they did that is they knew offer 311 00:15:40.960 --> 00:15:42.200 sheet was coming for this guy. 312 00:15:42.840 --> 00:15:48.519 Yeah. Okay. But to Rowansky saying no to the Dallas Stars. 313 00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:53.720 I tell you man that that Milan Olympics is has 314 00:15:53.799 --> 00:15:58.039 altered the National Hockey League all those America. I mean, 315 00:15:58.080 --> 00:15:58.919 it's crazy, but. 316 00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:01.399 No, we're talking about it American player not wanting to 317 00:16:01.399 --> 00:16:02.480 go to American city. 318 00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:03.879 Yeah, the interesting thing. 319 00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:05.559 Was a little bit different than the Chucks. 320 00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:08.919 Well, the interesting thing with Warensky is that apparently, and 321 00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:11.759 it's mainly family reasons, I know, but he'd be open 322 00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:12.519 to going to Toronto. 323 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:12.799 I know. 324 00:16:13.159 --> 00:16:14.960 So this now it's like, what the hell was that? 325 00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:19.840 Trent, him and his wife are from the Detroit area.

Canucks have 375 00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:11.160 signed left winger American left winger Paul Cotter to a 376 00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:17.000 one year deal two point one five million dollars spent 377 00:19:17.160 --> 00:19:20.160 last year. Last couple of seasons with the New Jersey Devils. 378 00:19:20.240 --> 00:19:25.359 Played seventy nine games both seasons last season. This past season, 379 00:19:25.759 --> 00:19:29.559 nine goals, six assists fifteen points. He was a minus 380 00:19:29.640 --> 00:19:33.119 twenty four, so they should fit right in Vegas Gold 381 00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:34.319 to Knights for three seasons. 382 00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:37.119 Okay, So for that, what's the thing the Canucks would 383 00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:39.279 like about Paul Carter? I checked in with his agent 384 00:19:39.359 --> 00:19:41.839 Dan Milstein last night and the Canucks weren't showing interest, 385 00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:45.519 so they obviously made a shift this morning. He was 386 00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:47.960 not qualified by the New Jersey Devils a couple of 387 00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:50.279 days ago. So what you like about him? Down six 388 00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:54.000 to two hundred and thirteen pounds, Canucks get heptier. This 389 00:19:54.160 --> 00:19:56.680 is a pretty thick player. You want to get bigger, 390 00:19:56.720 --> 00:19:58.880 harder to play against. You do it with guys like this. 391 00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:02.319 But there you go. Paul Carter not qualified. 392 00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:04.039 And I knew when there was a bunch of guys 393 00:20:04.079 --> 00:20:07.079 not qualified the other day, Canucks went to that non 394 00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:10.680 qualified area to get a player like Paul Carter. We're 395 00:20:10.680 --> 00:20:13.880 not showing interest yesterday, but somehow got up this morning 396 00:20:13.960 --> 00:20:15.799 and said, you know what, let's go get Paul Carter. 397 00:20:16.680 --> 00:20:19.960 Well, twenty four to twenty five, sixteen goal season, so 398 00:20:20.039 --> 00:20:22.920 not bad. Two years with the with the Devils. Two 399 00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:27.720 years ago, Paul Carter with the All Science Carter like 400 00:20:27.839 --> 00:20:29.480 welcome back, Welcome back Carter. 401 00:20:29.720 --> 00:20:31.880
