Allvin fired immediately

Zero chance the Canucks do that

Canes pass. Don’t need someone who would likely be either a 4th line or press box staple in Carolina.

Flyers will want more

No worries - there's zero chance the Sabres do that either or the Philly deal, not to mention throwing an offer sheet on Lafreniere so they can put Okposo in the press box.

Vancouver easily declines. Pick 11 is not being used to dump Myers.

okpo belongs in the press box on a successful sabers team this year. he cant keep up anymore with his skating. good leader just aging out.

isnt that something the canucks fans want?

probable 3rd line ahead of Nosen or Martinook. had more goals then both of them combined.

if hart actually gets traded i would doubt the 1st rounder involved is higher than 11. but i do expect it to be a 1st, 2nd and a young player or prospect.
goalies are fluky and never seem to be traded for high value assets. this will be the season we find out tho with hallerbuck or hart.

No, we don't like JR who seems to have finally let Patrick run the team.

small price to pay for not going 0-82 for being over the cap with a short handed roster.
5 players to sign to fill out roster and over that cap already.
in all seriousness its probably going to cost a 1st for next season. leafs dumped the same cap hit to Carolina not to long ago for a 1st rounder.

kinda think hes just about to be the scape goat for that terrible cap situation.

Vancouver isn’t over the cap though. They can put together a 23 man roster with about $1 mil in space while resigning all their pending free agents.

Toronto dumping Marleau with a 1st is a completely different scenario. That trade was also 4 years ago, once a deal becomes more than 2 years old it’s pretty much obsolete because of how values fluctuate over time.

Toronto was over the cap and had to dump someone, Vancouver is not. Marleau was owed a bunch of money, whereas Myers is only actually owed $1 mil of his $6 mil cap hit once his bonus is paid. Marleau also plays the least valuable and most abundant position (winger) as opposed to Myers, who plays the most valuable and hardest to find and develop at position (right defence). In no way is Myers comparable to Marleau.

I don’t see it costing more than a 3rd to dump Myers on a cap floor team like Anaheim so that they can get paid a pick to save money, then retain 50% at the TDL to get another asset for him. Both Vancouver and Anaheim fans have been in agreeance that Myers can be dumped on Anaheim with a 3rd after his bonus is paid.

We have loads of goalies, we don’t need another average at best one

Olafsson wouldn’t pull a 2nd
