Thread: Ferland on the IR for Opening Night and a midterm Hughes contract

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boltsbeathabs</b></div><div>If Petterson was going to sign that cheap he'd be signed already.</div></div>

That's fair value for a bridge deal, a longer deal would entail a cap hit in the range of $8.5M-$9.5M. The Canucks cannot afford to extend Pettersson at that AAV so they are likely pushing for a bridge deal.

Thread: Plugging in RFA contracts

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryancnbb</b></div><div>I dont understand y everyone seems so panicked that they cant get them signed</div></div>

I think we just get bored cuz it's the offseason so people start freaking out about signings that'll take time to get done.

Thread: Potential Hughes Pettersson Matching Contracts

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BCAPP</b></div><div>I may be mistaken but I think standard is 7 years.

ELC plus 4</div></div>

Don't forget that to qualify for UFA status, one has to be at least 27 years old too, while Quinn is 21 at the moment.

Thread: Potential Hughes Pettersson Matching Contracts

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheAlien</b></div><div>Doesn't sound like he cares about that right now. The holding point seems to be that he wants a 7 or 8 year deal and the Canucks can't afford to give him that</div></div>

This is what I've been hearing too, the recent RFA Dmen signings makes an 8 year extension for Quinn really expensive at the moment. Hughes may have a 10.2c clause which reduces his leverage but still, I don't think a 8 year extension is feasible for Hughes given the canucks' current cap situation.

The Devils would sell so many jerseys if they had all three Hugheses.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HOCKEYBOY448</b></div><div>I personally think Quinn is gonna do whatever gets him to ufa quickest to go to the devils to play with his brothers. If 6 years is the soonest he’s eligible to leave as a ufa it might be that then.</div></div>

For reference, a 5 year contract would carry him to UFA.

Thread: Plugging in the remaining RFA contracts

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>cshores</b></div><div>Hughes $6 times 4yrs or $7 times 6 yrs</div></div>

I think if the Canucks want to go long term with Hughes, it'll take more than $7 million, the AAV probably in the neighbourhood of $7.5 to 8.5 million for a long term contract.

I made this with the assumption that he would be offer sheeted, May as well plan for the worst when we have the cap room to spare.

Thread: Predicting a Pettersson Offer Sheet

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sporkknife</b></div><div>For sure, you can see why. Walks Petey straight to free agency while putting us in a real tough spot and probably forcing us to move Schmidt for nothing or even less than nothing</div></div>

If only Benning had a gram of foresight, we might have Petey signed already but he is busy buying out the contracts he signed last year.

That's likely what a Pettersson offer sheet would look like. But it's not my guess, the figure comes from James Mirtle and Dom Luszczyszyn of the Athletic.

Thread: Schmidt Question From Nucks Fan

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>Problem is, unless they send back a bunch of money, it doesn't make sense for them to do it.

Let's say it's Gudas. At that point, the team would have a total of $17.159 mil in cap space next offseason, with only 11 players signed. Say Barkov takes $10.5 of that. There's $6.69 in space left. with 9-10 players needed to fill the 22 man roster.</div></div>

This. There isn't a fit for Schmidt's contract in the roster which is what makes moving him a hard sell.

Canucks decline as they will be already be paying 4 Dmen over 6 million dollars when Hughes is signed.

Thread: Schmidt and Vladdy

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Canucks33</b></div><div>Canucks shouldn't be retaining.</div></div>

To elaborate a little, The Canucks won't retain in a trade where you are giving us a cap dump (Thomas Hickey). Get rid of the retention and this is a good trade. Considering NYI's cap situation, I don't know if that trade is feasible though.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>kingkanuck</b></div><div>Except Zack is really not a center...he took 8 draws last season and was 50% . So they still need a 4th line centre who can win faceoffs...don't know where you can find one for $681K. At the very least Holtby has to go. Brandon Sutter was 18th best in the league. He took 497 draws and won 55.5% of them, or they could try and convince Aidan McDonough to sign and find out how good he is.</div></div>

We have the cap space to sign someone like Jujhar Khaira who is an effective 4C, Sutter is a good option too.

Not giving away a 2nd to get rid of Holtby. Plus he has a 4 team NTC clause so he wouldn't even want to go to Buffalo.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MrBloopy</b></div><div>Why trade a 3rd for malcolm subban. You could just do DiPietro. Younger and should start getting some games.</div></div>

He isn't ready for the NHL yet, he still needs another year. Considering that it took Demko 3 years in the AHL to become a regular NHL back-up and DiPietro has only had a year in the AHL prior to last year where he played 4 AHL games, he likely needs a bit more time.

That OEL trade basically forces the Canucks to go all in these next few seasons.</div></div>

To be honest, I didn't even see Ferland was on the IR instead of the LTIR, that makes things a lot easier.

I am such an amateur.
