Marek: “He’s large.”
Friedman: “Elliotte, why are you ripping us? Why are you ripping us? We’re speaking about Hronek. That’s a horrible impression. It truly is.
Marek: “All of the anxiousness about Elias Pettersen. When that second, lastly the air went out of it. The Vancouver Canucks followers had about two seconds to take a breath after which straight away Filip Hronek. Oh no what’s gonna occur?
Friedman: “You recognize, one in all my buddy, I do know one in all my buddies from Vancouver texted me he goes, ‘Do you assume it’s any totally different in Toronto?’ I’m going, I hate it in Toronto to. Like simply , this isn’t anti-Vancouver hatred. That is anti-everything. Take pleasure in your victories.
Like I feel they’re gonna signal Hronek. Like I do. Except it actually goes off the rails. Like this one must actually go off the rails for it to not occur, I feel.
And moreover Petterson’s the massive one. Now, I do assume the Canucks are going to attempt to maintain a couple of of their guys. I feel they’re going to attempt to maintain Blueger. I feel they’re going to attempt to maintain Dakota Joshua. And I additionally assume that they will attempt to maintain Tyler Myers at a decrease quantity. Zadorov would possibly get, somebody requested me what I considered Zadorov. I stated I feel he would possibly get priced out of there. In order that, we’ll see what occurs with that however I simply assume that may be too excessive a quantity for them.
Myers to me is essentially the most attention-grabbing one. I feel they know the place Blueger slots in, within the normal space. I feel they know the place Joshua slots within the normal space. Myers is an attention-grabbing one as a result of I feel he’d in all probability, I feel he’d must take much less to remain. Nicely he’d must take lower than what he’s making now. However he would possibly nonetheless must take somewhat bit lower than what he may get on the open market.
I do know internally, the Canucks actually like Myers and I at all times must. I feel he actually cares. I feel he actually performs laborious. He’s from what I’ve heard, he’s a wonderful teammate. And, , he’s imply, and I feel his teammates like that about him. He’s the type of man who if somebody takes a run out one in all your guys, he’ll take a run at one in all yours. And I feel Tocchet actually appreciates that.
You recognize, I, I’ve talked to folks about him earlier than and , one of many issues they do speak about, and Jim Rutherford has talked about this earlier than too I imagine, is that , as a result of he’s so large when it goes flawed, it actually appears flawed. However you simply must shake that off. And I’ve simply heard they actually appreciated the entire package deal there, particularly what goes on behind the scenes. And if he desires to remain, the chance goes to be there for him to remain.

In order that’s type of the best way I feel it appears. Clearly, Hronek goes to be the largest quantity out of all these however I can’t think about it’ll be a curler coaster like, like Pettersson was. And plus , , Vancouver has an opportunity to win the Stanley Cup this 12 months. Take pleasure in it.
