Player Discussion BoJesus-Jangles Horvat

[PG Canuck]

Really hoping for under 5.5M

Time's tight, Janet. Do it right, Janet.

if he says it is coming from Linden

Or he could just be using Bobfathers musings as a source.

How the **** is Drouin at 5.5 mill one of the Canucks' *starting* comparables in this? Jesus H.

 

[y2kcanucks]

$42.4M/8 years would be fair for both sides.

Now I wouldn't use him as a comparable if I'm on the side of wanting the cheapest deal possible but a 53 point 22 year old with career 0.57 points per game seems like a pretty good comparable to a 52 point 22 year old with a 0.51 points per game. And given first one was essentially suspended by his team a year or so ago and banished to the AHL well it makes some sense that could be the floor of the second player (if you ignore the other contracts around the league of course!)

Why the canucks are using that as a starting point (I didn't see that info so taking you at your word) is ridiculous. It should be where they ended up. If it was their starting point then I'd expect something close to a Monahan deal.

5.3 cap hit .. fitting

Driving to school today this was my dream.

" Stanely Cup" drops mic. flies away in his cape.

He flies away to Pittsburgh in his cape to get a Stanley Cup?


...wait...you drive?

 

[canuckfan75]

I get the feeling Bo Horvat deal coming down later on this afternoon or tommorow.


6 x 5.5

 

[Tv9924]

I wouldn't mind bumping up to 6 mill if that's what it takes to get 8 years.

You have visual dreams when you drive?

 

[Huggy]

Dream - contemplate the possibility of doing something or that something might be the case

I dreamt Horvat at 8 - 5.3 avv

Saw Y2K post same thing. and shared ; )

Yeah, but there was a whole scenario to go with it with people walking up to podiums dropping mics and everything.

well ya basically that he would say something along the lines of. i took 5.3 u all know why

Cause Canucks don't have much leverage in this... Horvats the best player we have and we don't have much in the system behind him or young players that could fit his role. Canucks have been out hyping Horvat as the next captain and future of this team, all Horvat has to do is replay them saying this and say how much?

 

[krutovsdonut]

if there is a pool i will go $5.4 million to start escalating to $6 million part way through the term.

 

[M2Beezy]

Whats the frickin delay here this is taking WAY too long cmon Benning geter done CMON

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Just watching TSN That's Hockey and Mike Johnson figures 6.5x8 gets it done for Nylander. I'm guessing 6.8x8 gets Bo signed long term.

I'd be disappointed if it was north of 7.5 personally.

Bos agent likes to wait til very last minute/holdout status with his young star clients.

You should know this.

 

[JuniorNelson]

He has enough leverage to ask anything. Canucks are a joke.

 

[Vancouver_2010]

this team has enough problem attracting talent, we need Horvat. Therefore, we shouldn't be playing games with him, sign him ASAP. Don't turn this organization into a joke.

Nah, anything below McDavid's a steal.
