Not bad, Blake! WAGON

#FutureIsBright

imagine what this team could do without the sutter, eriksson, spooner, schaller, roussel, and beagle contracts. That's $21.375 mil tied up in guys that fill out 2 roster spots in your proposed lineup with an additional 9.9 mil in cap space available (LTIR doesnt help until youre over the cap). So basically 30 mil in space, plus you already signed skinner, although some will be needed for EP and other expiring ELCs in a couple years.

From a TOR fan, keep Leivo in ur top 6 or he will fall off, he’s got a hell of a shot and if you keep him with great playmakers he will score 20, otherwise he will probably score 5 and bring a little bit of toughness but not much else

Good stuff except you won't get skinner that cheap...especially on a 5 year deal.

If we win the lottery and pick Hughes, I don't think we need Skinner. I would rather invest in the defense particularly RHD

Who would you suggest the Canucks look into acquiring?

I would to a young RHD. Those aren't cheap. I would be willing to take a bad contract to acquire the player.

I would suggest something like Callahan + Foote from Tampa for Tanev (50% salary retained) + prospect like Brisebois. I know Callahan would need to waive, but I think you understand the type of deal.

I sure do. Those deals seem to be pretty big
