canucklehead44 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 700-800K seems fair. He was decent last year. I wouldn't be sad if we lost him but I'd like to see another season from him. He has a good combination of speed, size and grit. If he can get a little bit tougher, develop more offensive awareness and start to kill penalties he could become a solid 3rd line guy.

DownUndaCanuck Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Weise is still young and I feel he could be a breakout player any season now. He's showed he has some skill and potential to be a great powerforward with some of the goals he scored, notably the one against Ottawa. 4th line plugs like Tanner Glass can't pull off a move like that. Hopefully we get to keep him for under a million, around the 700K range sounds fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disisdayear Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 All these "he is exercising his rights" posts. Haha. I have a lot of rights. I can sue people for the most arbitrary reasons. I can walk around with a gun. I can shoot your dog if it comes on my property. I can buy a bunch of stuff and then return it and be an a-hole about it even if there is nothing wrong and I just changed my mind. Hey, it's my right. And the guy who thinks you can't buy a nice place with 700K should probably give us an idea of what he thinks a nice house is. In the current market you can get a million dollar house for half the price, even less. That and the guy is 23 years old. A great age for mismanaging your finances.

Navyblue Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I really like Weise. Remember when he injured that player from edmonton? Not saying an injury is something to cheer for, but the fact that he hits that hard is a good thing. It was a clean shoulder check. Stop hating Canuck fans. This and the countless negative panic threads really make me hate CDC. Cheer the frack up it's summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Anderson Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Weise is not a goon. He is a very young and productive 4th line player who tries to stand up for his tea mates when he can. Geez CDC, name a 4th liner that you actually like who isn't an agitator or goon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tragoedia Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 He has the right to salary arbitration just like every other player; whether it goes his way is another matter, but that isn't the point. He's not going to break the bank here guys, it's only going to be a matter of about 200k. Which to us is a **** ton of cash, but in the cap world, nothing. Besides, look at what they make after taxes, and they make half. Sure they are still rich and living the dream, but they are not playboy rich (at least not on the contracts below 2 mill), just average rich. (And no this is not coming from a rich person; I am a poor poor student.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeanBeef Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 If you were to somehow combine Pinizzotto,Glass,Duco, and Oreskovich, you'd get Weise. Has Pinizzotto's hands, Glass' willingness to drop the gloves and defensive ability, Duco's chirpiness, and Oreskovich's size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etsen3 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 We can replace him easily if the arbitration amount is too high. Having said that, I wouldn't mind having him back next year. He was decent in his grinder role, and remember he's only a rookie. I would like to see how much he can improve next year. I know people are complaining about his fighting skills, but this isn't boxing or UFC, winning fights doesn't usually help you win the game. The most important thing is that you show up and stand up for your teammates, which he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesler's Nose Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 As long as he doesn't get too much more, I'm fine with it really... I'd prefer Kassian gets his spot in the line up anyway, but if Kass decides to move up, then Weise can take his spot on the right side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
