OEL was just overpaid with a bad contract. He did okay once he got bought out and moved out of the toxic Vancouver market.
Worst case scenario, let him put in his time with his 50 point pace. Count down the years until he’s gone. Just like Loui Eriksson did he got paid did nothing and rode it out. Same MO.
Some wishful thinking…
EP40 has a better start to the season as if that isn’t much to ask for & is moved sooner or later. Future leaves the Canucks with CM & Rossi as top 2C’s maybe one is a poor mans 1C. Cootes 3C Raty as 4C. Rogowski & others to make noise if they develop & push for a C spot. Moving onto wingers therexare more questions than answers. DeBrusk wants out that’s fine. Boeser aging out by the time the boyz can compete for real. Novotny could be a gem. Karlsson more a mid 6 winger if enough depth is realistic. Leki entering the make or break window. Ohgren imo will be a good top 6 3rd wheel. Good reason for optimism on D.
Still need more elite talent a true 1C & top line wingers specifically.
Anything EP40 does over 50 points should be considered a bonus. I expect the same disconnect from his teammates. Hopefully the young players displace him.
Granato just got demoted from AGM to “I don’t know what the fuck to do with her ” . PA and JRs token position taken away. Where will Ray get his inside info now?
The Wop’s get their inside information from East Van dark coffee shops with checkered tablecloths.
I did ignore him last year. I thought he was a great helping the rebuild. If your top centre is producing at his level you can be pretty sure you will lose. I do want a bottom 3 finish again next year and I think another bad year of him leading the way you will finish at the bottom.
Expecting Demko to be injured again pretty much guarantees a bottom 3 team. The young D cannot pick up the slack. The PK still league bottom til major changes get improvement. Canucks would have to outscore most of their problems. Lastly plenty depends on MM & his staff installing systems & a team identity. Add it all up & I expect a bottom 5 or worse.
The right “team identity” should displace EP40.
I can’t begin to tell you how much I dislike EP11.6 but I don’t see a hurry for trading him at his lowest point. I think in two years his salary will be acceptable league wide and have more value. It also takes the pressure off Cootes and Malhotra to hurry up the process. I hate the selfish prick but I can ignore him for two years. I do like Hronek but again wait until his NMC expires and you can have a list of 17 teams that he can be traded to while protecting the young guys this year and next.
I understand EP40 is a great shot blocker!
LOL.
He can say he’s not waiving all he wants there are ways around that. Starts with him being a pro & in top condition for camp.
On another note I’m going to start copying posts since so many don’t go through.
He’s disengaged 100%. EP40 would be okay if he’s benched, he’s still getting paid. Thats why you want him off the team, easier said than done.
Petey came right out and said he won’t waive to leave Van.
They said they desire players that want to be here.
EP40>>>Loui Eriksson
I am the person that use to use that name but that was years ago he doesn’t exist anymore. Haven’t worked in the tel industry since covid.
I liked VANTEL better. He was feisty.
Vantel was a very bitter individual, he changed his persona to Playoff Jim to take the heat off. Sooner or later he’ll have a bad day and come in here and raise shit.
