Thread: Dreaming Big
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jpsnow13</b></div><div>I don't understand the Hronek talks. The team has capspace and are contenders. He's triving on a top pairing and has RFA status. A new contract will happen, except if he hates living in Vancouver.

I don't see trade happening, even less for futures.</div></div>

The rumor is his camp is asking for $8M per. If thats the case there is likely a big gulf between what hes asking and what the Canucks feel he's worth. Also, he's probably the best trade chip the Canucks have to get a top flight winger for Pettersson to play with. Canucks have some very good D prospects in the pipeline and with some decent RD in the UFA market this year it may be the practical thing to move Hronek if they cant agree to terms.

I'm on the other side of the fence on Zadorov than most folks I guess. I dont mind paying him. He's kind of like Miller, built to last and considering he joined the Canucks mid year, hes done very well. I stillthink theres untapped potential with him too and with Foote and Gonchar I think its entirely possible he continues to develop and becomes an ideal partner for Willander in a year or two (second pairing). If you dont think this is possible take a look at Myers and his improvement this year and he's 34. I'd do $5M x 6 or 7 in a heart beat with Z. Puts him at 35 by the end of his career which is the same age as Ian Cole and only 1 year older than what Myers is now. Lastly, think about about how good Z's contract will look by then. Five Mil in a few years will be a steal.
