I just want to confirm, Gleasons buyout is a regular buyout and as such will count to the full $4+ million against the cap for the remainder of his contract right?

Gleason will cost US$833,333 against the cap next season, $1,833,333 in 2015-16 and then $1,333,333 in 2016-17

No idea how it works but I can Guarantee you his buyout caphit wont even be close to $4M. Even half of that is too high. It's probably ~1.5-1.75M

the canucks only have room for one more defenceman and if they're getting one it should be a top pairing right side puck mover.

So they should get Subban, Doughty, Letang, or Karlsson? Pretty sure those are the only 4 in the league that fit that criteria.

Thanks for changing your avatar btw.

It's all part of the plan

"Top pairing right side puck mover".

Who else fits that bill that's not an all-star?

dan boyle, mike green, brent seabrook, dustin byfuglien, james wisniewski, alex pietrangelo, matt niskanen, kevin shattenkirk, tyson barrie ...

They were going good with the rebuild for a while, then they went off the rails a gain. Boston series has to be the turning point. I think it's a good lesson for Nucks, it's not just about skill, which TO has in abundance, you need guys to sacrifice and get the dirty goals. I think taking Virtanen over any of the smaller skilled euros was all about that.
