Thread: Off-Season Blueprint
If Mrazek was so easy to move- they wouldve done it this past season, he obviously was out of their plans for the playoffs- hell he was waived for nothing- and no one grabbed him.

Husso is 3 years younger than Campbell- and doesnt have his injury history, i would consider it an upgrade over Campbell, and if the Leafs thought Mrazek got 3.8 to be a tandem with Campbell as the starter...someone could very well offer Campbell the same or more to be their starter. Realistically the Leafs cant spend that on a back up. A tandem situation isnt a money saving proposition, and the Leafs have to cut corners where they can.
Grimaldi got a $2mil deal after scoring 10 goals with Nashville, then spent most of the year in the minors. Mikheyev got 21 goals in just over 50 games...theyre not even close to comparables.

Thread: (OTT/VAN) - 3rd for Hamonic
I didnt quote you directly- only part of your post was considered in my own post. Hamonics time in Abby needed context, he wasnt fully vaxxed (which includes a waiting period after your shot), so he couldnt travel to the US, and with the injury to Schenn- they needed a dman to fill the roster and either had to send down Hamonic (who had already cleared waivers due to him not being ready due to missing camp) or put Schenn on LTIR- which means he misses more games than his injury required. He wasnt having problems staying in the line up, nor constantly being sent to Abby. Your own links show that Hamonic has been vaxxed- yet you continue to say he isnt?

Do some research before you post...please try again.<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>Next time, do some research before calling what someone else wrote "crap" and then saying "there have been zero reports".

It will go a long way for you.

I never said he was waived because of "poor play" or "salary".

I never said he was a "antivaxx nut job".

Before finally getting vaccinated, he would have taken his daughter into consideration.

Thread: (OTT/VAN) - 3rd for Hamonic
The crap posted above about Hamonic clearing waivers is missing any kind of context. He wasnt waived because of poor play- or salary- it was because they werent sure if he was going to even play at all- and had missed training camp. There have been zero reports about Hamonic not being vaxxed- its because of his immune compromised daughter, there is no evidence of him being a antivaxx nutjob.

He has missed a lot of time due to injury, but has been okay once the rust wore off. I dont know where anyone is getting the info that Myers was offered for nothing, the fact is despite his overpay- Myers has been the better dman than Hamonic and the Canucks needed him despite his salary. the 3rd rounder is fair value for a healthy Hamonic- though Im surprised he went back east....

but I dont think either team is done, this could mean further movement from Ottawas defense roster- or that Canucks have other moves that involve another RD coming in either now or in the offseason.
