Gurn Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 1 hour ago, The Lock said: At least we're safe from any offer sheets that would have come in. This is actually a benefit from Boeser playing less than 10 games at the end of his first year. So to anyone who complained about us signing him and bringing him in at the end of the season like we did: it's benefiting us right now. It is almost like Benning planned it that way, isn't it? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motte was an easy negotiation and was signed probably even a bit below value for that type of player so there was really no drama or concern. He is a legit NHL forward and an asset whether in the house or moved and at his contract price, lots would be interested. Boeser is a far more complex issue and is one of about 10 to 20 players his age in the league that can do what he does and so makes it a more unique situation. Neither the Canucks nor the Boeser team want to rush things. Think of the Horvat signing timing - that is more the norm. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should he wait w/ other contract extension, only because BB hasn't signed yet?! Maybe he should've wait to sign FA, because of BB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post WeneedLumme Posted July 4, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2019 (edited) Cue the posts stating that if JB doesn't give Brock whatever he wants, he is incompetent, and the other posts saying that if Brock doesn't accept whatever JB offers, he is greedy and disloyal.

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Ben Kuzma on TSN 1040 just now said that the sticking point that seems to be contentious between Benning and Boeser's party is the salary. Boeser's camp wants 7mil aav. They don't care about the term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't egg on the negative nellies!! I am pretty sure that my post is more likely to reduce the negative posts rather than egging them on, by pointing out how stupid it would be to vilify either side for negotiating rather than just capitulating. Even "realistic fans" are reluctant to subject themselves to ridicule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two sides are probably edging closer together, but so far neither one is willing to "budge", by which I guess he means capitulate/accept the other side's latest offer. Also if this is true about the term and price, then I expect to see a long term contract, probably about 7 years x about $7M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
