yes, everyone gets raises from now on in.

yes, thats what im exactly saying. your comprehension level is really low. maybe you need to take a break?

he made 5.5 million the year previous, so yes

i can tell and he said it. just stop man your pissing everyone off

good, yes you can *attempt to sign them, but they will still sign with detroit to pump thier numbers

you also seem to forget we are in a special year, people are signing for less right now due to covid 19. if you think gm benning should be fired because he didnt plan for covid-19 you should start a riot downtown with all your basher friends, ps dont forget to wear a mask

your getting it now! absolutely no one, and why should they

so go build a time machine then

where did he ever mention 3 million. not one place ever, he just stated that these people signed for less to play on a contender, it happens. i heard hf-boards has a special spot for people like you, you'll love it there

yeah detroit is also a bad example, really. 1. american market. 2. they will likely play more minutes, and promised that. namestiknov made 4 million last year? so fill roster with 2 million dollar players, that score 17 goals and dont play d? the same namestnikov that was on 3 different teams in one year? sign merrill for a mill for a depth player that doesnt make our team? sign stetcher for 2 million, instead of bringing up OJ? just think before you speak

dont worry we can end the messages now and start new arguments in other bashing threads. please email this message to gm. sign better players for cheaper, it's easy. all we had to do in the past was to convince people to make min salary on a losing team in a canadian market. those signings happen all the time right? its just so simple right?

@Alain Vigneault so what im getting from you is, we must fill our roster with plugs to win. and these plugs want to play on a losing team right? not sign for cheap to compete for a cup with a contender? its just magical christmas land where you live, can i come?

lol, dude stop. if we fill the lineups with plugs, we will get run over. we are not as deep as pittsburgh and tampa bay

oh, so you want to compete with plugs?

myers was making 5.5 million in cap in 2018/2019 i will compare him with him. yup, cap went up so the raise is logical. beagle, didnt really like his signing, think hes over paid by a million. roussel we were paying for a hard to play against 3rd liner who score 25-30 points, and was a positive +/- player on a losing team. thats worth about 2.5 million.

myers is a top 4 defenceman on probably 95% of teams, just because you say he was a 5th doesnt detract from his value. again, look at the defenceman available and the signings that year, if we did overpay it was not by much.

hard disagree. we have not had to make any sacrifices of our core players, due to any of our contracts. if we didnt sign those contracts we wouldnt have even made the playoffs this year. im pretty sure making the playoffs is better than not. let's not forget that the cap was expected to raise.

lol, i have never heard of the good old hamhuis and maholtra team of years past. are you confused, because im pretty sure it was luongo sedins and kesler that got us to the cup final. burrows kesler sedins and luongo all took paycuts so we could make it, for that good on gillis. but we are also paying 3 million in cap because of gillis, this move here is maybe the worst signings of all canuck history. jim benning does not have the same luxury of competing for a cup, when he started. because we are not competing for a cup we are less desired for free agents, because we are the highest tax bracket we are less desired for free agents. combine those two and we have to overpay for our free agents. different times pose different challenge's and rewards. but

@Alain Vigneault you keep ignoring me, my guess is because it's hard to have to defend yourself all the time. you should probably quit while your behind, most people just don't see it your way. i mean almost all of your arguments are flawed to the point were they almost become quotable. most of us like the gm, think he deserves a shot to finish his contract. there's other bashing sites you know? maybe you should try posting there?

what? so whats the cut off point, maybe you can enlighten us. 6 million and up? my guess it starts at 4.375 mill and below. go back under your bridge

maybe not the players involved, but yes it sends negative feelings throughout the team. your playing with fire if this *deal were to be made, sign and hopefully trade for picks. players get hurt,performances decline etc... also we are a competing team right now, so why risk missing playoffs?

yup, it was agreed that we had to overpay(STILL DO) remember player's earn less money playing in canadian cities

lets not give me any idea's, because we badly got out coached in the vegas series

um, so trade bad contracts for picks? your real funny

so your complaining about jims free agent signings, because we dont have room to make more free agent signings? that's pretty wierd man
