He also said his wife was here and really enjoying it as well , he definately has helped fill in for the loss of BB if Benning can clear some cap space to keep him it would be a stronger lineup without a doubt .

Pure rental but if he helps you win 2 rounds and gets the Canucks to the WCF.... thats a good trade
Playoff experience and a winning mentality is huge. Huge for the team and the city too

Happy Sunday, everyone.
I've just published an in-depth analysis of Tyler Toffoli's style of play for Nucks Misconduct. It includes a 10-minute video presentation examining his performance from February 9, 2020 vs the New York Rangers. In that game, he recorded seven shots on goal.

If I were to add a 'prediction' for Tyler Toffoli to my season stat tracking chart it would read like this:
GP: 76 - G: 18 - A: 21 - P: 38
That said, he put up those stats on an LA team which hasn't exactly been an offensive juggernaut over the 3-year span that I take my averages from. For context, the LA Kings averaged 2.43, 2.89 & 2.43 goals for per game versus league averages of 3.01, 2.97 & 2.77 over that same span. While it's not a given that he'd have produced more on a team with a better offence it seems likely that his 'predicted stats' are deflated compared to where they'd have been if he played on a team closer to the average. All that aside, we're getting a player with a career-high of 31 g - 27 p - 58 p and who's generally been a mid 20 - 20 - 40 type second-line player who shoots at a 10% rate and chip in on the PP, while being a positive possession player who gets a 60/40 split of zone starts.
Assuming Boeser comes back for the playoffs Toffoli also gives us a lot more flexibility in who plays RW on our top three lines.
If he fits I think he's the type of player you make an effort to bring back as more than a rental.

4-5 years at $5.25-5.5mil.
If he is a great fit on the top line down the stretch, you have to give it to him.

Not trying to fit in
I think he could be tempted by a 4 or 5 year deal from us at 5.5 per. I get the sense he's a loyal guy and our situation should be a good fit for him. If he wants to max out he could get 6+ but at that point I think he'd have other things to consider (loyalty, team fit, wife etc.).
Obviously we have some cap considerations however I do think it's possible to sign him, Tanev and Markstrom. I'll let management figure out how but I don't see this as being outside of the realm of possibilities.

If we can talk one of them into signing a shorter term deal with the understanding we'll pay them more once we lose some contracts, I think we can make things work out. That, or they all take deals outside the 6M range. It'll be tight next year but manageable. Unfortunately, if any of them want term and a payday, we simply have to pick who of the three we're keeping.
Suffice it to say, this off season will be where Benning can start rebuilding his reputation. If he pulls off giving the team intact, it'll go a long way.
Still a long-shot that Tofoli will re-sign in VanCity.....but the thing about guys like Tofoli and Pearson, is that they're battle-tested in a couple of long Cup runs.....that kind of experience is priceless on a team with as many young pieces as the Canucks.
The price was steep....but hard to argue with the results so far......Four points in two games, and looks to have slipped seamlessly into Boeser's spot on the top line.

In my opinion the best two deadline aquisitions in Canucks history happened at the same time: Cliff Ronning and Geoff Courtnall.
Is it too early to say Tyler Toffoli will be in the conversation?

Posted this in the GDT but posting it here may be better.
Honestly...dealing Boeser in the off season may be the best move if Virtanen can take that next stop forward. Toffoli makes Boeser kind of irrelevant. We dont need two of those types of players on the team. Only one will get pp time.
Keep Boeser and let Toffoli walk...or trade Boeser for a good piece and sign Toffoli?
OR give up another first for someone to take Eriksson and keep both.

I still think this was the best trade in team history. Two great top six forwards and a solid, physical 3rd liner in Momesso.

Tanner Pearson, JT Miller, and now Tyler Toffoli ... all successful examples of hard work and dedication, and no baggage.

A great fit to this Canuck roster. I would love to find a way to have Toffoli resigned. What a great addition going forward.
That 70’s line. Pearson, Carter and Toffoli. All big guys who played hard and could score. You can see why the Kings won a couple of Cups.
