Let's go now to the Able Auctions hotline. Our next guest from the Athletic Vancouver and Canucks talk. It's Thomas Drance here on the Halford & Brough Show on Sportsnet 650. What up, Drancer?
What did the hosts learn from the Canucks development camp?
Gentlemen, I think the non-baguette debate comes down to the density of the non. Okay. You know, if it's dense enough, maybe if you like air fry it or bake it. I'd oil it up first. I think if you do that, then it can be frisbeed further than a baguette. But I think for the most part, non is probably too flimsy and a routine bagel in baguette Bagel and that's bagel. That's baguette plus javelin. A baguette javelin or bagel and would go further.
Someone in the Dunbar Lumber text message in baskets suggested that the bread Olympics be called the glue Olympics, which I liked a lot. That was pretty. I like that. That was pretty slick. We did discuss the argument about the bread being crusty and hard. while also being girthy. And then we realized, are we talking about bread? And then we dropped the conversation, oddly enough. Let's go to everything that's happening. Don't say girthy. Yeah, it's too late. I already did. Let's go now to the week that was for the Vancouver Canucks. Let's just get some general thoughts right off the top about everything that Ryan Johnson and company did on July 1 and then in the days or time subsequent.
Yeah, so, okay. You know, and I guess really we can go back to the Gallagher trade, right? So we saw two maneuvers that I would sort of group together to subtract pieces from this roster in Hoaglander and Marcus Pettersson. And in both those deals, you saw a player go out for draft pick long into the future, 2029 third, 2031st conditional. And then, so that's, you know, a real... declaration of patience from Canucks management. I mean, both of those picks fall outside of current management's deals.
Yeah.
Right. I mean, they'll need new deals by the time they get to the point of using those picks. So that's a interesting dynamic. I think maybe even one that has its own gravity really as the years progress here. But realistically, you know, If other teams are unwilling to give you a third-round pick this year or next year or whatever on a more usual timeline, you push it out. They still have as much upside. You can argue more upside given how hard it is to project probable outcomes in the NHL on three- to four-year time horizons, five-year time horizon potentially in the case of the pick they got for Pettersson. And then you bring incredible replacements in Gallagher and Oleksiak with zero acquisition costs, right?
Gallagher was free, less than free really, since the Montreal Canadians retained 50%. And then Alexiuk obviously signed in free agency. In both deals, you end up saving some money, right? There's some cash savings. The cap hits are neutral, effectively. And... You know, you're also saving term, right? Pedersen had five years left. Alexiuk's only two. Hoaglander had two years left. Gallagher had only one. And so we now sort of have this template. Patience, right? Obviously, both Alexiuk, Gallagher, and then you throw Luke Shen into the mix, and you're getting noted good dudes, right? Yeah. You're definitely getting big guys for the most part. Not Gallagher, but Cotter's big. Alexiuk is big.
