TheRussianRocket. Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 @NEWS1130Sports: The #Canucks have done the expected and qualified the contract of goalie Jacob Markstrom. @NEWS1130Sports: Been told the #Canucks have qualified 3 more contracts - defenseman Adam Clendening, Frank Corrado and forward Sven Baertschi. More and more likely Lack is the guy gone. Would expect 31st overall from Buffalo but if we were somehow able to get their 21st, would be outstanding.

Heretic Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 What would be outstanding would be to get the 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Would be satisfied if we do trade Lack for the 31st overall. Let's hope Baertschi can do wonders for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jägermeister Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Don't see this having any real indication of who we are going to trade (though bets are still on Lack). If we didn't qualify Markstrom it would have resulted in us losing him for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Sign Markstrom 3 years 4 mil. He'll grow into it, am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baer. Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Sign Markstrom 3 years 4 mil. He'll grow into it, am I right? He might want a bridge contract. Wouldn't be surprised if he accepts the offer. Also wouldn't be surprised to see something like 1 or 2 years just under 1.5m per. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 what also makes me intrigued is no word on whether we qualified Yannick Weber yet. Makes you wonder if his price is too high to swallow and maybe JB will swing a deal to get another pick using him. I can't see our backend on the right side housing Tanev, Clendening, Corrado and Weber. Too soft of a group on the rightside. Tanev signed a new deal, Clendening is Bennings guy, JB loves Corrado. Weber seems like the odd man out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlanB Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Hypothetically speaking, all 4 of these guys (Bear, Corrado, Clendening, and Markstrom) are here in the fall - who can and cannot be sent to Utica without having to clear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanBeef Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Hopefully they qualify Stanton. Was awesome the year before and this year with Clendening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you can't even handle Johnny Hockey right in front of the net, you're too weak to be a regular D-man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Great news. I want all three on the team come October. Perhaps this nods to a Bieksa trade too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, not hypothetically speaking at all. All 4 are waiver eligible. So, barring trade, injury, or colossally disappointing camp, all 4 are part of the 2015-16 Canucks.

When you can't even handle Johnny Hockey right in front of the net, you're too weak to be a regular D-man. true, he was probably the worst dman in the series, lucky for him, Hamhuis was there beside him. Weber is good as a bottom pairing defenseman but even with Hamhuis on his pairing as a top four he's in over his head. Would much rather keep Stanton over him.

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Hopefully they qualify Stanton. Was awesome the year before and this year with Clendening Indeed, I thought he got the raw end of the straw sitting out the amount of games he did. I rather have saw him in the lineup than Sbisa. Stanton quietly does things well without much fuss or grumble. Hope he is brought back corrado has been playing left side too, lots of this season actually. gives some flexibility. i see us carrying 7 D for the foreseeable future and rotating out Benning has already stated he wants to carry 8 dman for next season. I wouldn't mind him playing the left side but much prefer him playing his natural side. If we believe JB follows through with bringing in Bartkowski and deals Bieksa at the draft our depth chart looks kinda like this Edler-Tanev Hamhuis-Weber Sbisa-Clendening Bartkowski-Corrado That core looks softer than soft served ice cream. The trouble with our dman during the Calgary series and even through the regular season was the lack of physical presence on the backend. Not meaning fighting or bullying players but guys who can clear the crease, who will be willing to take the body instead of the crap stick check that all our guys subjected themselves to and even willingness to establish body to body contact along the boards etc. With Weber, Corrado, and Clendening all within the same profile of job description one has to go. Weber most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I had high hopes for Stanton after 2013-14, but he was mighty horrible this past season. Still young enough to consider qualifying and keeping around for depth...but would not surprise me if they just let him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaudette Celly Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Weber, Stanton, Vey, McMillan all gone? I think qualifying is more of a formality, just so we retain their rights. So would figure all would get done, aside from if they're going to let someone walk. McMillan would be the prime candidate for that, I'd think, as the others all have some trade value.
