Pickly Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Good. Guys been excellent. He's the perfect kind of bottom pairing defenceman this team needs and it makes Weber and Bartkowski redundant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b3. Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Very good. He deserves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Fantastic signing. Well deserved contract, after exceeding his expectations, and filling in nicely while some of our defencemen were injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackcanuck Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Even more good reasons to like this ^^^^^ Brad ZiemerVerified account @BradZiemer 10m10 minutes ago Biega gets two-year, one-way deal with #Canucks. With Hamhuis about to return, looks like Bartkowski might join Weber in press box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 He's earned every penny of that contract. You hear that a lot, but Biega actually did. He fought tooth and nail for it. He's impressed in every stint he's had with us. He's responsible defensively, plays bigger than he is and brings a feisty element to our defense. Perfect 6-7 guy for us.

PlanB Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Like the kid, has heart, filled in nicely when we needed it, but no one can deny this highlights the lack of depth at D in this organization unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRypien37 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Solid #7 guy. Surprised it was multi year and a 1 way though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coryberg Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 23 minutes ago, Fanuck said: 2-way deal would've been much preferred. Why? Are you picking up the tab? 2 way would mean he makes less in the SHL. Has nothing to do with waivers. If he was waived and sent down his salary wouldn't count against the cap because it's so low.

canuktravella Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 cheap 6th to 7th dman for next 2 yrs or possibly he could be packaged in a trade lotsa options regardless hes better than weber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoughtysCheck Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Good signing. But if he is in our top 6, we're in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boddy604 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 41 minutes ago, Fanuck said: Because on a one way 2 things are a certainty, 1, he's guaranteed a spot which i don't necessarily think he should be (I believe in competition ) 2. If jb changes his mind he's at risk of being another Corrado A 1 way at 700k only guarantees he's the number 7 dman. If we get more than that outta him, that's amazing value. And comparing him to Corrado doesn't make a lot of sense, Corrado never actually cracked the roster. He was still an unproven call up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebreh Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 good re-signing! he has certainly earned that contract. now we just need re-sign Pedan and Grenier and all is good in Canuck land. then trade Weber, Bartkowski, Vrbata and Hamhuis at the TD.
