Let’s take the Cap out of the equation while seeing what a player is worth to a team doesn’t make much business sense.
This thread is a reservoir of knowledge, continuously replenished by the collective wisdom of its participants.🍭
It’s the Devon Toews contract.
Toews is the steady long term partner to Makar, putting up 50ish points a season, while allowing Makar to to be a Norris Candidate every year.
7.25 is with term is a very fair deal both sides.
Someone's phone keeps buzzing lol
You know how pissed the Vancouver media is about to be that Adam Wylde got this interview?
None of them could get 2 sentences out the guy all year. Now he’s just doing interviews?
They’re all probably sending angry texts to each other right now as we speak
great show
Calling out serevelli😂
Great interview. Would have loved more questions about different teammates and coaches and perhaps not only about Quinn, but hey. Glad to have him as a part of the Canucks
Someone told me that Hronek looks like a Hollywood villains evil henchman… And now I can’t unsee it.
He’s not the guy that gets killed by the evil boss for failing a task, but the guy the evil boss turns to and says “you’re in charge now.”
It was just so specific… but now, I just can’t unsee it.
Adam receiving Snapchat notifications every few minutes
"It's a czech dog"
The notion that removing the salary cap would prevent fans from worrying about how much the players make is ridiculous, they just wouldn’t have a hard number to worry about, it would be entirely up to the whim of the owner what the max they could spend is. Also it’s not like having a cap prevents fans from enjoying the sport, the NFLs cap is confusing as hell and fans still watch football.
I know agents hate the cap and he's right about it. However, the first and most important reason that it's there is that we don't get baseball. Where the richer owners have a unfair advantage. Go into the nhl playoffs with a 80mil team vs a 120mil team and see which one comes out on top
It also test managment ability to build a team and not just throw money at team until the problems go away

Great PR by Allan. Filip is a great player and has room for growth.
Lol Allen's phone buzzing every few minutes is pretty funny
Dhaliwal exposed
Canucks fans eating good right now! 🫡
Hronek hasn't even peaked yet. 4 years younger than Teows. Solid deal
Walsh blocks too many ppl on Twitter. Don't be an a-hole so much
Hronek, Joshua, and Blueger all taking discounts to stay in Vancouver, THEY WANT THE CUP!!!
Adam & Allan….take Philip to the Hadai Gwaii….nothing like playing a big salmon….nothing…..big halibut and chinooks up to 40 lbs……The guy is in Vancouver….it's just over a hour flight to Sandspit for example….Phil will come back every summer once he goes once…
Allen needs to take him sturgeon fishing on the Fraser river 🎣
Why does Alan Walsh remind of famed music producer Rick Beato? Literally the same voice.
Puff Piece? No. Vancouver is that good of an organization now.
Alvin and Rutherford and cast totally turned things around. Great to see that players want to come play in Van city now.
I can't believe you guys managed to wrangle a full interview from him
Happy to have him signed long term
LMAO J-Pat never getting this interview ever!
Loved him as a Red Wing. I wish they asked a bit about those teams, the legends he got to meet, etc.
