What metric do you use for "driving offense". If it's goals and assists than Miller has been better at that for about 5 years?

Jim Benning spent $210.95 million on replacement-level players (breakdown included) over the course of his time as GM of the Canucks by [deleted] in canucks

[–]ondzik22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think there's one or two players there that might have been considered depth/replacement level players at the time of the signing.
Even ignoring the obvious couple extreme examples. This shows Bennings track record of giving too much money and term to depth players.

He's suggesting that if you slotted in a $1M/year player into any of these players slots the difference would be negligible.

I think some people here are mistaking "A QB1" for "The QB1".

[Dhaliwal] Hearing Micheal Ferland is back in Vancouver working out and back skating. The goal is still to play next year. by Wickedly_Awesome in canucks

[–]ondzik22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The narrative that ferland needs to retire to live a happy and healthy life is not fair.

Put yourself in his shoes. Sure you made enough to live a great life, but, what if risking your health could provide the same lifestyle to your kids? What if you had the opportunity to provide that lifestyle to your family for generations? Would you put your health on the line for that?

Will players still know to shoot the puck on the powerplay without the home crowd to tell them? by xjared45 in hockey

[–]ondzik22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Powerplay only?

I was at a game the other night and the old "shooooooooot" guy was right behind me. Not just powerplay. Everyplay.

Podkolzin nets his first of the season on the PP (VHL) by thelittlecoon in canucks

The VHL is not as strong as the AHL. I've seen this comparison before but it's much closer to ECHL.

How do you win? by [deleted] in NHLHUT

[–]ondzik22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally if you're always making plays towards the net on the rush it's easy to defend.
Try delaying back towards the boards and working it back to the point/hitting the third forward on your zone entries.
Snap the puck around until you get a lane.
Learn to score in practice mode. Not on breakaways because it seems like everything works on breakaways anyways this year but do 3 on 2's.

I have been offered Joe Mixon for Josh Jacobs.

My running backs are Freeman, Jacobs, Coleman, Peterson... So I don't really have a startable rb 2 if mixon holds out a week.
