You guys don't understand that MG can't sign guys cheap if he doesn't offer a NTC.

And who really cares? Do they know the difference between a limited or modified NTC, a NTC and what is actually to be avoided, a NMC? People complain about this all the time on here but have little idea what they're talking about - and little idea of how many of these deals are actually cut around the league.

The Canucks have 7. Compare that to other contending teams and they're right in the wheelhouse of what every other GM is doing.

Pittsburgh had 11 to end last season.

Boston 8.

Calgary 9.

Chicago 8.

Philly 9

Dallas and Tampa 7

Another 6 teams with 6,

Settle down folks. You're over-reacting.

Exactly. If you've had your player in your system for a number of years, you know he is going to be consistent, and you know that you want him to be part of your core going forward, why wouldn't you use a NTC to get a reduced rate?

I'm of the school of thought if everyone has a NTC on long term contracts, limited or not, they can get too comfortable and all the creativity and hard work can go out the door.

I agree with you about the NTCs and definately the limited NTCs not being that big a deal. But I think you're off about the Nuck #s. For the most part, they have been given to the core players with the best work ethic.
