I wouldn’t have a problem raining boo’s, but I’m not a season ticket holder. It would certainly put a sour taste in my mouth after he (allegedly) nixed a trade to Calgary that included at 1st and a top defensive prospect, if the trade included an extension. So if he ended up leaving anyway.. likely to a western conference team.. I would be rattled but ok with the cap space gained and no NMC. If he signed somewhere with only a NTC I'd boo him.

Then just let Edler walk, or sign for a lesser dollar and no Clauses restricting trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB knows that Edler REALLY wants to stay in Vancouver. I sure they can work something out that is good for both parties. There's still alot of time left to sort that out. JB has other details that have to be dealt with in the nearer future. And no. I would never boo Eddie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he decided that he wanted to move on, he exercised the rights afforded to him by the clauses in his contract. Edler shouldn’t be booed if he moves on either. If Benning is holding out because Edler wants an NMC I’m glad to hear that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has offence and plays a serious physical game in his d-zone. I want him back but agree with you that a NMC is out of the question during the Seattle draft year. He can have the NMC before that year but that is it. Not signing Edler means Van has to hold on to Tanev. I have wanted to move Tanev for 3 years now. One of those 2 should be going. All this said Van has to make TOI available on the d-core for the young d-men coming up. I would be happy to keep Edler for 1 more year and then lose him in the expansion draft to Seattle. Move Tanev this Summer at the draft table and then Edler next year to Seattle.. I would be happy to see his contract attractively “set up” for that to happen. Edler should be happy about that because it’s a 1 hr flight between YVR and SeaTac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike a lot of recent Canuck prospects, kesler was of a very low character. Ask his team mates (or their wives). I think a couple of his team mates would probably like to, and deserve, to beat the living hell outta him.

When Linden was playing, he even had a little chat with Kesler in regards to the situation with Umberger. Whatever beef or opinion, you never have one PA member attack another PA member regarding contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanukfanatic Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I loved Edler and he said he loved the Canucks. Yet the guy refuses to waive at the deadline to help the team and now he won't resign? lol...ok eddy If the guy won't resign without a NMC move on from him JB. We would be a better team with him but if he is being a selfish dbag then he can beat it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without him, the Canucks will surely have to overpay for a UFA, or through trade. I agree that he should not be given a nmc, and if that is the hangup, then it is time to move on. It does, however, put the Canucks in a compromised position. Yikes! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seemed like Kesler had matured and went on to have a mammoth of a season and then he didn't get the C and he reverted right back to being a douche.
