Five Days To Go...
by Yankee Canuck on Oct 5, 2010 9:31 AM PDT
Email
Print...and here's where we stand with the Canucks.
1. Cody Hodgson and Eddie Lack are still with the team for financial reasons (if you're a cap sleuth, then you know the devil is in the details). Both are probable to be heading to Manitoba sometime tomorrow along with perhaps Cory Schneider in another money-saving move.
2. As reported yesterday, Joel Perrault is on waivers and likely heading to Manitoba too. His one-way deal means the Moose pick up his salary.
3. Unless the brass does a 180 on Hodgson, that leaves the final roster spot up front up for grabs between Jeff Tambellini and Peter Schaefer. Again, a decision likely today or tomorrow. UPDATE: Tambellini hits the waivers. Odd considering his preseason play. No word yet on Schaefer.
4. On the back-end - and as discussed in the comments yesterday - AV has opted to open the season with Bieksa and Hamhuis as the top defensive pairing. So for now Saturday night's roster looks like:
Daniel Sedin - Henrik Sedin - Mikael Samuelsson
Mason Raymond - Ryan Kesler - Raffi Torres
Jannik Hansen - Manny Malhotra - Schaefer
Tanner Glass - Alexandre Bolduc -Guillaume Desbiens
Christian Ehrhoff - Alexander Edler
Andrew Alberts - Keith Ballard
Cory Schneider
5. Last, but not least, there's no update on Bob's groin but nothing to suggest he won't be ready to go.

Schneider
Being sent down to Manitoba?? That doesn’t make sense.

was just going to comment exactly that…word for word. Even if it’s for temporary cap relief to maximize LTIR benefits from Salo and Burrows, why schneider?

The Sun mentions it. The only reason I can guess is, because he doesn’t go through waivers, you save a bit of money.

I was thinking that
So he’s ineligible for waivers then? I don’t completely get that part of the CBA. Then start the year with Lack as backup I guess?

No they’d recall Cory before Saturday. It’s like saving two days of paying him.

Correct me if I’m wrong but “Opening Day” in the CBA in which you have to declare your “active roster” is not the roster you have to play on the first game of the season. That way they can fit Burrows under the cap before putting him on LTIR. Can you start the season with only 1 goalie?

Opening day of the season is not the same day as the day of your first game (though for some teams it is). Opening day is Thursday, but the Canucks don’t play until Saturday. So they’ve got two whole days to move players around once they declare their ‘opening day’ roster.

Lack/Schneider
Playing around with Capgeek. Having Lack on the roster reduces our cap by approximately $400K. They’ll bring Schneider back up as soon as Salo/Burrows go on LTIR. That still leaves us 1.5M over….
Here's the CBA
http://www.nhl.com/cba/2005-CBA.pdf

I think this explains the whole “maximize cap LTIR relief” thing or I just had too much coffee this morning.
Except in case of emergency, there shall be no reduction of the required
minimum Playing Rosters of the Clubs, below eighteen (18) skaters and two (2)
goaltenders.
I just realized the capgeek calculator has a flaw in that you can’t count cap hits without bonuses. Lack’s salary is actually $640,000 and Hodgson’s is $875,000. It all makes sense now…

Damn cap. I remember the good old days when all you had to worry about was how many points your favourite players had.
Or notice how many times larger the New York Randers salaries were than your team’s and then watch them lose to your team of cheapo heart-and-soul guys every time.
Randers?
Because they carried a lot fo South African Rand? Because they were rich?

One Day To Go...
Until my friend Helen moves to Vancouver for a year!
I say friend, I have hardly seen her since she went to University, and seemed disinterested when I mentioned I was a Canucks fan. I don’t know how prepared she is, but I’m sure she’ll have an amazing time in an amazing city…
Like most British people, she has no real knowledge of hockey, but I’m guessing being around what could be a great year for the Canucks could make her someone I actually know who I can talk to about hockey!
Can’t wait for Saturday.
Yes, I am British.

Alexandre Bolduc and Guillaume Desbiens
I must admit I don’t know too much about these two.
What are the pro’s and con’s to our new Frenchie grinders? I never got to see much of Bolduc in his 15 games in the bigs last year, so I have no idea what he brings to the table.
Is this an improvement over last year or just a Cap driven result?
Is this an improvement over last year or just a Cap driven result?
I’d argue it’s both. Our 4th line last year was crap, partly because Johnson was injured/not playing at the level we needed, Hordichuk is terrible and Rypien wasn’t much better. The fact Bolduc and Desbiens outworked and earned their spots should say something. Bolduc has some health problems but we have plenty of guys on the Moose who can sub in if that happens.
And it’s definitely a cap result. We spent way too much on defense, plenty on the netminder and a good chunk of change in the top six and Malhotra. Torres is a steal at 1 million, but if you have pinch pennies anywhere, the 4th line is a logical place.

With the way Ballard played in the preseason, the top 4 worked out to be Hamhuis, Bieksa, Erhoff and Edler. Assuming Bieksa and Erhoff are the ones playing on the right side, this makes a bit more sense than Hamhuis/Erhoff or Edler/Bieksa being our top pairing.

I can only think they want to ease Keith Ballard in given he’s coming off hip surgery and looked a bit off the pace in pre-season. Give him a few games with less responsibility so he can find his feet and then move him up the depth chart once he’s back to his best.

During the preseason
Bieksa and Hamhuis played together and looked really good. I’m not the least bit surprised they’ll be playing together to start the year.
Canucks fans talking about the Canucks: Pass it To Bulis!
Kinda like
When Bieksa was initially playing w/ Willie Mitchell and had that fantastic offensive year.
Here’s to hoping for a repeat.

are we sending to the Moose? Remember all the angst when we were worried about bringing Luko back up? We are going to have a whole bunch of that this year if our forwards run into some injury problems.

I thought Tambo was on a one way deal. Which is why he has to clear waivers to get to the AHL and since he makes more than 75,000 on the AHL he is subjected to re-entry waivers to come back up. A player on a 2 way deal, as the name implies, he can move freely between the minors and the majors. Am I missing something?

Tambo is definitely on a 2-way deal. Only needs to clear waivers to be sent down, but not to be called back up. Note: I don’t have time to read through the CBA at the moment, so this is based on memory, so I’m only 90% I’m right.

contracts have nothing to do with waivers.
1 and 2 way contracts are completely independent of waivers. they simply affect pay scale, whereas waivers is based on games played and/or years of experience.

"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"
They missed the point. They posted about why entry level players don’t have to go through waivers at all. Not about why certain players (i.e. Tambo and Perrault) must pass waivers to go down to the minors, but don’t need to clear re-entry waivers to come back up. Await my post :)

I don't get this...
…the team prefers hanging onto Desbiens instead of Tambellini? If he is claimed I will be rather annoyed…
Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose.
Disappointed
that Desbiens and Bolduc are on the roster. Is that just another way of saying I’m disappointed that Rypien and Burrows are hurt? Hopefully they go back to Manitoba when Ryp and Burr are back.
I like Bolduc, he’s no Brendan Morisson, but he did a good job last year, he’s a solid fourth line center.
And if Desbiens keeps crashing and going to the net, I think he’ll be an asset.
