Zuongo Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 One of the best. Time had come, we need to realize that to get better more decisions like this need to happen. Hamhuis and Vrbata next season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Light Racicot Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Good deal. And good luck Kevin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanaholic Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 This is a good deal. Jim Benning got the best he could as once again he was handcuffed by a ntc. OMG, if it is true that Benning could have got a second rounder from Sharks next year (only radio news so who knows if that was true) and that is why I said IF it is true, then this move was beyond dumb. Why do I say that? Well Ducks will finish really high probably so a second rounder from the Ducks will be near the end of the second round. With the Sharks, who never win anything, a second rounder would have been near the beginning of the second round. OMG, I cannot believe what is happening? NIGHTMARE, absolute NIGHTMARE . . .

YEGCanuck Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 A second round pick in a deep draft year is a good return considering where Bieksa was picked and the current state of his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maniwaki Canuck Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Even though SJ's 2016 second will be a lot higher, I'm still glad we went with this deal. Wilson is a dick for baiting and switching on us, so it's a matter of principle. And Kevin gets to go to a true contender, which he deserves, not some retirement home like SJ. Gonna miss his snarl and wit, but the time has come. Good luck to him there except when they play us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepress83 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Nothing but the best wishes for Bieksa but I agree with a NTC this was a decent return and it's nice to see the trade wrapped up quickly for both the player and the Canucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownky Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I'm happy with the return on this one. That's a lot of contract money freed up AND a second for a declining player with an NTC. Anaheim gets a servicable D-man provided they don't sign an extension for him; he's always best in contract years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbdoubleu Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Now I really have to chear for the Ducks to win the cup. Gross. Bieksa was my favourite Canuck from this era, so I hope he can end his career in style. Already eying tickets for his first game back in town. Clendenning was very good for the Comets during their run. Corrado have a tough year but he also was terrific in the playoffs from the limited action I saw. Biega did not look out of place while he was up last season. Lots of guys to fill spots. We're still missing a true PP QB, but I don't think our D is as horrible as some think it is.

HC20.0 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Gonna really miss you Bieksa. Go get your cup in Anaheim man. Sadly, this was a long time coming. Bieksa's time here was up. I do like the return, but like Naslund in 08, this really stings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugor Hill Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 You guys know that Anaheim's 2nd rounder is essentially like a 3rd rounder, right? It's not gonna be much better than the Lack pick. Also, since it is 2016's pick we lost a year's of development (compared to the SJ deal). It's not as good as it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckGAME Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Dark times are ahead. Everyones cheering now. But this team just lost all its heart. This team is going to be bad for a long time. I will be cheering all the way through. Dont get me wrong. But we are going down the Edmonton route now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
