NightHawkSniper Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 So a 40-point defenceman now costs 5+ million? I was upset at Bieksa for 4.6 million but that has turned out to be one of the biggest steals on the blueline. MG is slowly starting to look like a genius again. Getting defencemen in the 4 million range is getting tougher and tougher, and he has 4 of them down for a long time. In 3 or 4 seasons 4 million will be insignificant compared to the ever increasing cap. MG is a mastermind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danthecanucksfan Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Defense and goaltending were their primary issues now. I think they've addressed their needs quite adequately this off-season.

bleednucksblue Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Because no one wants Ballard or his terrible contract? On another note: Crazy money being thrown around. Canucks are going to get buried when the next round of D-Man Contracts are up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beluga Whale Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 please explain to me how a defensive core of salo, hedman, carle, ohlund, brewer, lee and an offensive core of stamkos, lecavalier, st.louis, malone, and purcell do not equal a stanley cup contender.

Spoosh Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Terrible, terrible overpayment for Carle. All I can say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLumme Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 That is a lot of money for Carle - makes the Garrison signing that much better. Really have to appreciate the way MG runs this franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedman Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 I have to add though, except for being good at moving the puck and put up points, Carle is a really good shotblocker too. 15th in the league in that category actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
