Rumor: Demko is back and at least 4 teams have called and Canucks havent said "No" to them New Source ( ESPN)

[Jay26]

Don't mean to be that guy but isn't speculation pointless when the story is the Canucks said no? Anything can happen obviously but clearly a trade isn't imminent.

The blip from the story was that Vancouver hasn't said no. Maybe a little confusing with the double negative.

Per sources, at least four teams have called Vancouver asking about Demko's availability -- and the Canucks haven't said no to any of those teams.

Oh my. I uh...clearly didn't read close enough. I thought it said they HAVE said no.

 

[Love]

Looked really good in practice yesterday. Groin seems to be back at 100%

Demko is ready to play us out of the Bedard sweepstakes

 

[BCNate]

Goalies don’t go for that kind of price, and especially not one with question marks on their health.


Cal is on a 5 million dollar contract.

That is CP's cap hit when buried in the minors.

 

[krutovsdonut]

i don't really know what "not saying no" means, but it sounds even less substantial than the old chestnut that a team is "listening" which is in turn a steps removed from actual trade discussions. an asset of demko's stature is not going to be moved without actual shopping and trade negotiations, so i'd say that the canucks have just unboxed the defcon status indicatoor and are now thinking about reading the instructions on how to set it at the lowest setting if they were to decide to plug it in.

I love it when people just put up stats with no context, like it just makes you look uninformed or just plain ignorant, I suppose that's what you were going for?

I was going to say that's such an intellectually dishonest post.

No, it’s not.

Sorry bro, you are wrong on this one. Might want to run your numbers.

Cal Pedersens cap hit with the Kings is 10 million over two years, or 5 per. In the Minors it is 7.75 total, or 3.875 per.

Probably that Demko is available for the right price, but Vancouver isn’t actively shopping him.

Thought the numbers spoke for themselves. If you are asking for a big return at least have better numbers than the guy finding his game in the AHL.

Looking at how Rutherford handled his goalies in the past, I'd say Demko is absolutely available.

So your saying the OP should make a thread on every player in the league. This is going to be a long night

 

[vanarchy]

I wish we created speculation threads for when there's actual confirmation of a deal being hashed out. Not because someone... didn't say no?

 

[banks]

Trading Demko would mean a full tear down rebuild for Vancouver. Even after the Horvat trade, I just don't think they have the guts.

Cap hit is contract value/years, not total salary remaining.

Thanks for playing.

It doesnt change the proposed 2-3 year timeline that management says they are aiming to do.

Canucks can easily sign a stop gap goalie like Jarry and continue marinating Silovs who is tracking very well in the AHL.

Demko is only signed for 3 more years anyways and could walk away at the time the Canucks are ready to compete.

Sure, but that has nothing to do with my comments. The only thing I commented on was his buried cap hit, nothing else.

Ah, I thought you said that his buried cap hit was his salary. My bad.
