Worth noting: Vrana's shooting percentage as a Wing is 25%. No one is a 25% shooter (McDavid's single-season career high is 17.08), so that's gonna come wayyy down in a larger sample size. Point being: I don't feel Vrana should be totally untouchable. But I agree that Yzerman isn't going to deal him after only 11 games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Always wonder why these pros don't hire pros. If I was making super bank I would be paranoid about any woman i was dating. Would she potentially level charges against me if i broke off the relationship or she gets prego etc. Vs hiring a top end call girl who knows the score and it's strictly business. Once I am done then I get the wife and kiddos For those that need a reference about the case https://www.citynews1130.com/2021/05/21/canucks-benning-virtanen/ Now it's a police investigation so there might be some teeth in the accusation. My semi-issue with the civil lawsuit is that the event happened in 2017 and 4 years later she files charges? Why the delay? If I am suffering and it seems she is based on her story.

Now they're investigating (good for them). But a rape kit can't be performed, and any hard evidence from that hotel room is long gone. So all they're going to dig up is text messages and he said she said statements. AKA nada. So he'll get cleared in the eyes of the law, and should be regarded as innocent if that's the case. And if nothing of significance turns up this girl may be forced to pay Jake's legal costs. If something seriously wrong happened to her, that's awful, but reporting it 4 years after the fact means she really has no way of proving her story. So that's all that is... a story. This idea that women make this s*** up for attention. Like it's fun or something. She has nothing to gain from this especially since she can't prove anything. The Canucks are taking this accusation seriously. Maybe they know more about Jake's snake than you do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 91 of Ryans 3,019 Report post Posted June 18, 2021 15 minutes ago, BarkBurgerman said: The point isn't to score goals, it's to get the Larkin UofM band back together by signing Hyman. The other interesting one is Andrew Copp in Winnipeg. Huge year this year and will demand a big raise, RFA, and it doesn't look like they have much room for him: Centers already signed: Wheeler (plays wing as well) Little (plays wing as well) Scheifele PLD Lowry Harkins Gustafsson (Minors) (2nd rounder) Perfetti (Minors) (1st rounder) Even if you move both Wheeler and Little to wing they have 4 centers signed with #5 Gustafsson and #6 Perfetti coming up. I would entertain a trade that brings Copp's RFA rights to Detroit. If we have Larkin + Copp + Hyman then Werenski has no choice but to be traded to Detroit. Oh, my bad, I thought the point was to show Larkin as a 2C on your sheet of paper and also to trade Zadina. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's an interesting trade scenario... adds a 1A center to our 1B/2A, gets value for a 3rd line winger who may still be perceived to have upside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
F.Michael 4,590 Report post Posted June 18, 2021 Just now, BarkBurgerman said: Slow, barely blocks shots, hardly scores, will be 35. Had Marc been traded to anyone else besides us last season and was UFA now he wouldn't make anyone's short list as a potential signing. You can literally throw a dart at the UFA board and make a better selection for our defense than Staal. Veteran presence in the locker room - solid on the pk/calm in his own end - made a great pairing with Stecher whom I hope is protected from the expansion draft. I'd take another season of him over Cholowski/Lindstrom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The 91 of Ryans 3,019 Report post Posted June 18, 2021 I' d really really love to see Yzerman take advantage of the flat cap and expansion draft to get a younger D man in here that can generate some ******* offense either on the PP or just getting the puck up to ice to guys like Vrana/Zadina etc. 3 minutes ago, BarkBurgerman said: I want Tatar back I'd take him back in heartbeat on a short term deal. 2 krsmith17 and Hookersarethefuture reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Larkin is not a 1C based on P/GP, then Reinhart can't be either. Reinhart is also a year older and has a worse +/- than Larkin, is slower, and is worse defensively.

UFA adds: Blake Coleman, Dmitry Kulikov, Alex Wennberg. Seattle: Namestnikov. Bertuzzi Larkin Coleman Vrana Wennberg Zadina Veleno Rasmussen Fabbri Erne Glendening Panik Nielsen, Smith Kulikov Hronek DeKeyser Seider Cholowski Stecher Lindstrom Bernier Greiss Wennberg's not going to score like he did this season (unsustainable shooting percentage), but he's a true centerman who can play tough minutes and keep his head above water. Basically a placeholder in the middle six for a couple of years as we sort ourselves out at center. I'm tired of stopgaps, but Wennberg's gonna be 27 in September, so it's not like we're re-signing Filppula. Coleman's a good winger who can play center if needed. Given that we're so weak at center, so I'd like to see us ice a deep(ish) winger group. I liked Hronek with Nemeth. Kulikov is sort of a Nemeth type; he won't put up points, but he can drive possession in a tough shutdown role. I like this lineup. I feel like this lineup would be watchable, possibly even competitive. I still like this roster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
