@DarrenDreger: Canucks file "cutdown" arbitration on Mason Raymond. Q.O is $2.6 million. Salary can't drop more than to $2.21 million if Van wins arb case." Anyone know what this means?
Apparently the Canucks can offer 85% of his salary anyways for his next contract, so this is really just a ploy to protect him from offer sheets from other teams - From info on HF Boards
