Primal Optimist Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I can only think that Weiss is an idiot. I would march an army of lawyers and accountants into the office and cut his pay to 85% of what it was and not a penny higher. His entire NHL career has seen him put up 8 points if I am not mistaken. He is no Hordichuk and he is No Glass. IN fact, I would walk away in disgust at this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Optimist Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 You know, when your 23 and your making more than 500 grand to play a game you love, AND your not putting up points: you smile and say thank you for having me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuck nit 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.

smackyo23 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 This guy can't even win a fight for us and he wants more than Rypien made. Release him he sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nd84 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Wow. You guys are absolutely vilifying a player for using one of his RFA rights. But from a board that wants to boo Justin Schultz, I'm not surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucksbiggestfan Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Rightfully so, Weise deserves to make around 750-800k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthNinja Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Right, because asking for a raise is just as bad as shooting dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodee Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I really fear for this team. Two guys ( Bitz and Weise) sending us into tailspins of delirium at the thought of them not being in the line up next year. The only reason they have value at all to us right now is the total ineptitude, it seems, of our scouts to be able to address our lack of pushback. Bitz is not a bad skater but slow and certainly no fighter. He also seems injury prone. Weise is also a pretty good skater with some hockey smarts and a big heart but little to back it up. Neither to me gets the job they are being paid for done. Weise lacks bulk and so is a class C threat to any opposition troublemakers. Bitz lacks fighting ability, while having good size so is also in the class C category (almost a D for me) Both these players, how can I put this, are not good enough at what they are meant to do to deserve a slot in this team. Volpatti would lay both of them out and hardly be out of breath and from what I have seen of Pinizzotto he could be the a much better bet than Bitz or Weise. Let's get some pushback in the top 2 lines and in the defence. Guys like Bitz and Weise are two for a buck.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-AJ- Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 His move makes sense, but we don't need him that badly. If the deal is too crazy, I say we just walk away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
