  1. Yup, he said what he intended to do and is sticking to it. Going to be interesting to see it all shake down.
  2. Yeah but JB's shown he doesn't operate that way. Like with Miller, he goes straight up with teams when trying to acquire via usual means, rather than sneak around and force others' hands.
  3. Yup, there's only so much money available. Might be interesting to see who's still out there without a seat when the music stops.
  4. While Benning hasn't name-dropped Rafferty or Rathbone in the same breath as Juolevi and Chatfield, recall that Hutton and Stecher both made the team straight out of college, unexpectedly. Rafferty already has a season of pro hockey under him, and Rathbone is likely a more well-rounded player at this point. Would not be surprised if the team suspects one grabs a roster spot.
  5. Interesting when even this guy gets it: This was day one of free agency, folks. DAY ONE.
  6. They have core issues and so far seem to be in denial about fixing them. Even their media is saying Johnny Hoggy has to go.
  7. Pretty clear they were prepared to go without Marky and Tanev, so they have other irons in the fire beyond the OEL negotiations.
  8. He did say he took quite a few calls today, on what sounded like opportunities to make moves. Maybe something'll shake down tomorrow, either cap clearance or an acquisition.
  9. Yup, been figuring much of the day that we'd see Tanev replaced with Barrie. If the Canucks really wanted him back they would have reached out before today. He became simply a contingency -- they have their eyes on someone(s) else. Jimbo determines who he wants, and goes out and usually get him.
  10. What happened to all those complaining about Tanev being injured all the time and that we had to ditch him? And if we're going to improve the D, how do we do that if we bring back the same players?
  11. This stuff is gold. Who needs pay-per-view when you can sit back and enjoy CDC's 3D angst and despair in real time
  12. Jet Black watching, sitting back, grinning with $10mil in his back pocket.
  13. Have a feeling there might be a scramble for the remaining cap amongst the higher-ticket UFAs. Don't want to still be dancing when the music stops and there's no chairs left.
  14. Gio's just turned 37. Marky wondering what he signed up for.
