I think he’s fine, but he’s shooting 25% and has 40 career games. It’s a big number for a light resume. But yes beyond that, he is a 20+ goal guy on an ELC. He could have brought back a nice haul, but instead Vancouver has another nice player getting relatively big money despite the fact the Canucks are in terrible shape with the cap. There is just no plan there.
I’d like to assume the numbers were way off between the two parties and that’s why they went ahead and made this extension, but that’s not a given
Harpur has been awful as a 6th D. Truly terrible. If the gameplan is him being our 7th or 8th, fine. Whatever. But if this means actual investment in him, yikes.
He hasn't shown enough consistency to get the big deal. IMO you bridge him for 2 years and suffer the consequences if he proves to be worth it.
risky, him and suzuki might be lovers but I get it, plus he is a one trick poney that might get injured a lot due to his size(I think he will be fine injury wise)
- Edwards has always stunk - His comments were terrible, for sure. But in the grand scheme of things with the crazy world we live in, this is fairly low on the list of awfulness. I wouldn’t call it a nothing burger, but I don’t see it as an huge deal either. - The apology was exactly what I would expect from Edwards - not good.
Love the dads trips. They’re always hammered. The blues did a moms trip earlier this year. The moms alway were tearing up when their sons scored. Hilarious in contrast
Latendresse, who now has a podcast in here talked about his dad’s trip and one night they were all out. His dad doesn’t speak English, Owen nolan is as frigid a human being as you will ever see and Latendresse is having a good time but started looking for his dad, the dude was in a deep conversation with Owen nolan at the bar. Arms over shoulder and everything. i am not doing the story justice but how he told that story was hilarious. And of course his dad threw up all over their hotel room that night . he was in Minnesota back then
Also, I know some people that know some people Bruins are winning the cup this year matthews is overrated mcdavid is impossible to defend mcavoy is a top 5 defenseman in the nhl they are trying to tell themselves to calm down now and keep some and peak later but it doesn’t work, everything they do ends up in a win no matter what. Jokingly obviously but still amazing what they are doing. They are all buying in hard
Yep, extending a guy who has no part of your rebuild is odd. Just trade him and get the maximum value. This is just delaying things with less value. Sell high/Buy low Large sample size/Small sample size
That would not be a good deal for MTL. Fewer years and less term. Give him a prove it deal, he hasn't earned it.
It was a tough night for the Bruins fan last night that was taunting my section after both Bruins goal then went into a shell after Hedman scored and sprinted out of the arena when the clock hit 0:00. He was a decent troll for ~55 minutes but couldn’t finish the job.
Got fucking bulldozed tonight. Also, it’s really fucked that the Myers bullshit is going to cost Beniers an all-star appearance.
makes me wonder what is wrong with American players. They all seem so soft mentally. Matthews is the poster boy. No wonder they never win anything.
Gotta wonder what’s wrong with Canadian fans. Can’t cheer their team full of Canadians, Americans, and euros to Stanley Cups anymore. Have they gotten soft?
