Popular Post 10pavelbure96 Posted June 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 25, 2019 We may still retain some of those guys on lesser contracts. I'm glad they havent given up on Goldobin. 3 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 18W-40C-6W Posted June 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 25, 2019 But but we could have got so much for Hutton and Granlund!!!!! JB and his bad asset management!!! Maybe people should accept that the market they may perceive for our players, is not necessarily the real market for our players now? 1 5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ossi Vaananen Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Was waiting for this since the 2pm cut-off. Maybe we can get Hutton back cheaper, if not I'm sure there's comparable guys in free agency. Granlund walks, he'll find a contract somewhere. Benning banking on some free agent D. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gaudette Celly Posted June 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 25, 2019 Cleaning house, culling it down. Boucher is there to provide support for Utica. They could still be negotiating with Hutton and Granlund, but it's not like it's necessary any more to keep them. If you can't keep up, placeholders, step aside, we're moving forward. 2 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Bang Boogie Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) Not at all surprising. Looks like Goldobin is given another chance to prove he's got what it takes. Pouliot, Gaunce and Granlund were all disappointing this year. but there's also no space for them now either.

SealTheDeal Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) I'm actually a bit surprised by Granlund. He's a fairly versatile player and inexpensive. I'd take him over Motte. Maybe it's simply a role issue, adn we have better players to fill out our top nine. There are all sorts of players not getting qualified though. The flames are tossing Rychel, and I remember when he was considered one of Columbus' future stars. . .

EternalCanuckFan Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 I personally wish Gaunce was qualified but clearly he's not viewed highly by this management group. If anything, Gaunce seems like a good depth player that could be kept around for depth with the Comets. Are there that much better UFA depth Cs or LWs available? I suppose the Canucks could still re-sign Gaunce but looks like it's a farewell to another former 1st Rd pick. The Canucks are heading into free agency with quite a few contract spots open so it will be very interesting to see how things unfold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18W-40C-6W Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) I know many like Hutton, I do too, but he's fully replaceable. In my view he's a tweener and as such more of 5/6 depth guy, and as such he's not worth the 4.5 needed to retain him with a qualifying offer. He's big but doesn't use his body enough to be a punisher Good skater and decent offensively but not a pp specialist Decent defensively but no Tanev / defensive specialist. I'd be fine with us running with Sautner and Brisbois who are due for an opportunity and do everything well also. Hutton has become redundant and unless he's willing to take 5/6 money we don't need him, he's never going to be a difference maker.

Popular Post VegasCanuck Posted June 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 25, 2019 Jordan Subban not qualified in Toronto. That little depth on defense there, and he still doesn't make the cut. Remember when everyone was freaking out that we were letting him go too soon? 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
