Patrick Johnston on Canucks & Milstein trading Mikheyev; Guentzel, UFAs; Joshua & Zadorov gone? 

What's with the narrative that Zadorv is a bottom pairing Dman? He's a 2nd pair player, certainly. But the whole media market is pushing this, "He's lucky to even be playing in the NHL!"... I don't know what the point of this narrative is ??? Weird. He can skate, he can smash, he can produce; what more can you ask? As the season went along, after attaining him, he only got better and better, learning the OBVIOUS difference between Tocchet's system and what was happening in Calgary, culminating in his play in the playoffs. This wasn't "regency bias", as being pushed by media; this was a player adapting to a system, and showing how adaptable he could be. I swear, ?SOMETHING? is behind the narrative (maybe The Canucks asking media to do the work convincing Zadorov isn't as good as he actually is ??????? It feels that crazy!). Anyway, hope he re-signs. I'd take him over the Myers they signed to that horrible deal 5 years ago, ANY day of the week!

I would rather see the Canucks spend the 9.5 mil and get someone like Chandler Stevenson for the third line centre and find another winger for the second line. If Guentzel isn't going to be the piece to put you in contention, it makes more sense to get 2 players for that money.

Over-paying for FA is what the Benning regime did. Let's hope this one doesn't do the same.

If the Canucks had Pettersson and Demko in top form there is a very good possibility they would have made that difference to get past Edmonton and then. They are in a stronger position than some are estimating.

I think Jake Guentzel makes a lot of sense if you think Lekkerimäki is ready but I think that is a season away.

Sekeres stop interrupting everyone to put your 2 cents in. You don't have that much insightful comments

They will have a center from Abby.

Why do people keep forgetting that Slavin played his whole career in Carolina? Vancouver reporters love talking about hometown discounts but never takes that into consideration with other teams?

They have electrified Door Mats in certain States for Bears . If you told all the kids run at it screaming . You would never see that bear again .

Patrick Johnson needs to be better prepared. He’s off the mark completely. Severes has the better plan. . Sign 3 players instead. Of Guenzel. Sign Myers, Joshua, Zadorov. Go hunting for cheaper wingers. marchesault, or others.petersen will make them better.

Booyah!

BIG Z this is really a hard decision. He makes 3.75 a lot probably asking 6. You ask the coach if they need this guy. Why don't you guys get the coach on your show and stop all the beer leaguers advice

This Guentzel better be good if they want to lose good players to get him.

That’s why they’re shopping Mikayhev, trying to shed his salary to make room for Guentzel not Boeser!

Trade Demko next season to keep Boeser.

I like Jake too but hes older... why not Necas from Carolina??? go after him he's 25 or 26 I thought thats the age range the Canucks Management were after??? Yeah and sorry to say while he's scored 40... Trade Brock:( sad for him to go but I bet u, the Wild would love him there!!! Id rather pay that money to Necas than Jake...
