Pens accept

yes.

Lol

Don't hate this from a Canucks perspective. Would prefer to sign Bear

What is the point of the one with the Canucks? We'd probably be better off not doing it and just re-signing Kapanen.

I just dont see much of what Garland would bring to us as we don't really have any shooters as is. That frustrating headache of guys making the extra pass would multiply.

Kapanen is useless to us.
Blais for Garland why?
Easy no from the Canucks.

Kap certainly isn't a shooter. I'd love to have Garland, but his cap hit is too high. The one I do not see the point of is the Vrana trade. That return is pointless.

Kap isn't a shooter but he is a pretty solid defensive player from the wing and adds a speed element. And more importantly wouldn't be locked in for 3 years at 5m per year.

I just don't see a way a top 6 of Thomas, Kyrou, Buch, Garland, Schenn and one other is extremely productive. Schenn will get to the Net. Buch will score on the PP but is pass first. Thomas is heavy pass first, Garland doesn't really have a shot, Kyrou has a shot but most of the time is more interested in trying to find the homerun play. Saad doesn't have a great shot, but does get to the net and is a pretty good goal scorer. I think the main thing is adding more of the same makes us pretty one-dimensional (Although some of those players don't have to be) with alot of the headaches we've had offensively the past couple of seasons. Mainly trying to make the perfect play versus prioritizing the better play as a shot. And really that could be a philosophical thing from the team, but I for one would rather not lock up the money without moving money off the books for next season.

Like I said, the main issue with Garland is his cap hit. He's better defensively than Kap and shoots way more than you think he does. He's also an excellent forechecker, so he'd be the perfect type to slot in with Schenn and Kyrou.

Pens accept!!!

what about woo? would that be worth?
