Popular Post cuporbust Posted June 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 17, 2019 (edited) Glad they are not panic signing him to whatever he he asking 4. If he needs to be protected in the expansion draft id rather say goodbye. Edited June 17, 2019 by cuporbust 1 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post aGENT Posted June 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 17, 2019 Man, Rick might need to switch over to TMZ 1040 the way he's been pumping the panic around Edler.... 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24K PureCool Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Oh well. Good luck to him finding a team willing to give him a NMC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post VegasCanuck Posted June 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 17, 2019 I think he will take meetings with other teams and see if anyone is willing to give him a full NMC with the expansion coming up. If no one will, he probably still signs here. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure his agent just wants to talk to other teams to pump an extra year/few hundred $k/clause etc out of the Canucks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post brownky Posted June 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 17, 2019 As I said before, I'd rather see him in the rearview mirror than get handcuffed by an old, increasingly injured defenceman who wants a protection spot. Edler Logic: I dont want to go to Seattle in the expansion, give me an NMC, I always want to be here. Also pay me lots, and a long deal. Benning: No NMC, Deal ends before the expansion draft, we'll probably re-sign you again then assuming you haven't stopped breathing. Edler: No. I leave forever. Goodbye. 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Edler, he will sign a deal with us in early July, likely July first. It will be what JB has been offering all along. Elder wants to play here, and stay close to his family. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Tom Sestito Posted June 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 17, 2019 How unsurprising. This was predictable after Jimbo didn't complete a deal by the deadline. All leverage was gone, and Edler knew he could demand the world. We gave NMC's until Eriksson and Beagle were 37 and 38. Makes sense that he would expect the same. Best of luck wherever you go, Edler. Now we will give a NMC albatross contract to a #5 defenseman in Tyler Myers! 1 4 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we sign both Gardiner and Meyers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially ones that are about as far from 'relevant' as possible. If he's demanding the world, Benning is doing exactly the right thing letting him walk. Can't trade a guy who won't wave, but don't have to re-sign him if he's being unrealistic for a player his age and health. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flat land fish Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 If we don’t resign Edler we can also “weaponize” cap space. I still think something gets done here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
