Gstank29 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Good signing. If Corrado and Clendening aren't right we can let them sit in the pressbox and get adjusted to the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spotted Zebra Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I was really worried about the term, as a one year deal, no one should be complaining about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think Frankie Corrado and Adam Clendenning are going to play 82 good games? That's what this accomplishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think Clendenning and Corrado will play anywhere near 82 games, they will probably be 7/8 Ds with the signing of Weber and Bartkowski.

cuporbust Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Potential top 4 defenseman. Young enough Lol. Not a chance. depth move as expected. That's what he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By sea and land Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Personally I don't want the Canucks to spend any money on this free-agent class. Especially handing out long-term. Bring in Santerelli to replace Richardson and I'm all good. However I would welcome a trade or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Only thing I can see adding is another centre Maybe we will see something good, there are rumours Pittsburgh wants to move out Sutter right now for cap space. I think he would fit nicely, though it would probably require a little massaging of our lineup as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumerman77 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Not much to this trade not an upgrade nor a downgrade just a plug, who will likely be traded on deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
