Most likely he would love to have another shot at a CUP. If the Canucks feel like he can be a mentor in Utica, he would be a great mentor to the kids there. If the Canucks feel he can provide some leadership on the Canucks roster then he will stay put. IMHO I think he's coming back next season.
Sweet, looking forward in seeing him play in Utica next year.!!!! Memo to Benning, please don't you dare trade him now. Also those who were doubting he would sign with Canucks can now take a deep breath and relax now
