It's wild that Brad Marchand, the C, is on the trade board. Apparently, one yr left on his contract at like $6.1M AAV cap hit ... if you can separate him from all the tongue licking, weird sh*t, that's a pretty good player for that amount!

Damn. Makes it look like a steal considering Canucks got EP40 for 11.6M lol.

-just heard Rick Bowness of the Sportsnet trade deadline panel talk about the chances of Boeser getting traded.
It does not look good in terms of a trade.
Bowness said that if Boeser is traded, Tocchet would have told him to leave the ice now during today's morning skate. -wanna make sure a player is healthy before he is traded haha.
-still time before the trade deadline for a deal to get done.

lol, Looks like nothing was done...
inb4 we already jumped the gun with the sequence of JT Miller trade. Didn't need to be desperate and make trades at the deadline like other teams.

Not one team wants Boeser even with 50% retain salary?

Wow… if they’re not re-signing him this is right out of the Benning “We ran out of time!” era, lose him for absolutely nothing.
And signing him is not a great idea either, not for what he wants. He’s not worth it.

either the Canucks are asking wayyy to much in return for Boeser, or literally no team thinks Boeser is worth it for a playoff push or his contract of 8x8. So they probably lose him for nothing like Tanev lol.
He is not worth 8 mill. Debrusk makes 5.5M and is tied with Boeser in points and is not a -20!

I honestly think it has nothing to do with management but everything to do with a POS owner who is greedy and all he cares about is money.

You are probably right as well. I hope Hughes is smart enough to see this and demand a trade. He deserves a chance at a cup and not to stick here and always be stuck in the middle.

Beauvillier got a 2nd!!! Laughton a 1st!
I think the real anchor on a deal is Boeser’s demands for his next contract, nobody is giving up assets for someone they can re-sign.

I already talked to a friend during the week that the absolute worst thing this team could do is stand pat. Fucking bravo. I too suspect this is Aquaman interfering saying to push for the playoffs because he wants that revenue. I guess it could have been worse had we sold off assets for some meaningless rentals. I sincerely hope we don't make the playoffs because we'll just embarrass ourselves.

The fact that they've gone through several management groups only to get the same results means the blame is clearly on ownership

I give credit to Linden. He is probably laughing right now. Linden said rebuild, but aquaman didn't agree and let him go. Sure get a couple playoff games and get knocked out. Then pay more money next yr for seasons tickets. Lol

This team is like Manchester United, a team that will never accept short-term mediocrity for long-term gain. A team that will continue to try to plug holes with mediocre players, while sitting in the "not shitty, but not good enough" category because the owner is addicted to that 1st round playoff money.

So Marchand, the Canadian, went to the locker room of US player Tkachuk in Florida. Wonder how that will shake out.
How will they kiss and make up ... maybe Marchand licks Tkachuk's cheek?

Unlike Miller and Petey who are a couple of bitches they'll probably hash it out and be buddies within the first few days.

Imagine getting 11+ million dollars USD a year and being such a bitch.
Hockey players are such fucking dorks, they are paid so well to be the modern day gladiators for the bread and circuses.
