It just seems very difficult to predict, so I'd rather not gamble on it.

My only issue comes from the fact that at the end of the day...its all on him.

Perform...and its not a problem.

But sorry man, if you're doggin' it...life is going to suck.

Its a results based business.

Its actually funny, I remember having a conversation with Vlad many years ago and he made some very good points and thats why I'm very hesitant to sign older players who want to be compensated for what they've done rather than what they will do.

"Look what I've done for you!"

Cool. We paid you for that already.

Yeah, seems strange to me that this concept was figured out and popularized in MLB 20+ years ago and NHL fans still seem stuck in the 2000 mindset.

Honestly, considering what they gave up for Lindholm I cant imagine them recouping that on a subsequent flip.

Lindholm has been very bad for the Canucks. Black hole for offence the last 6 or 7 games.

He's been taken off the powerplay entirely lol
