spook007 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Please be true.... Benning true to his word if this is indeed the case. He would fix the defence.... he is definitely trying to do so. And he added a top 6 player to play with EP and BB.... very pleased. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHL rocks Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Not bad at all. 5 yrs is good. Anything 5 yrs or less is good. 6 mill? Did anyone think he could be had for less than 6 mill? JB did well with this deal. This is as good as it was going to get. Top 4 RHD to play with Hughes. Good job signing. Let's get one more top 6 forward and we can make the playoffs. Gotta move some salary out and go after Nyquist. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanuckGAME Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 6 mill isnt bad. I'd say it's fair. How is Joe Pavelski only worth 7 though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Neilsons Towel Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 If this is accurate I’d say that’s a job well done by JB. Our Defence needs improving and this is a step towards that. 5 x $6 seems reasonable to me considering market value right now for RHD. All that whining and hand wringing for nothing lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But some guys such as ferland may find themselves without teams later in the day tomorrow and maybe they drop their asking prices. The top guys such as lee probably all get picked up but maybe that gives us a chance with a ferland type. Yeah, Habs showing $13.5mil for 22 contracts, so they could add both Lee and Gardiner. They could certainly use his size. Even if we went after Ferland, wouldn't want to go near $5mil on him, and no more than 4 years either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best way to enjoy this type of player is to draft and develop him. Then watch him truculate all over the ice for 3 years at entry level money!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know you hate Benning but for &^@# sakes, get a grip. And for 5 years and not the 7 predicted. So if Loui Eriksson right now got a 6.5 million per year contract that wouldn't be overpaying because he's getting 6 million right now? What kind of logic is that? This is an overpayment, CLEARLY, just as 95% of FA deals are, just as his 5.5 million dollar contract to play on WPG's 2nd or 3rd pairing was as well. However, it's also probably the best anyone could've done with Myers so props to JB. That does not take away from the fact that Myers is not worth 6 million dollars. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekker Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) 9 minutes ago, Hutton Wink said: Yup, and that's with "worst defenceman in the NHL" Gudbranson and "even worse" Pouliot, 56-game Edler and 55-game Tanev, plus our heavy-lifting Cs 26-game Sutter and 57-game Beagle. So how was that possible? Marky should won the Vezina, right? Impossible for a Canuck to win a Vezina. Lu should of won it his first year here. He was unbelievable. Instead the popularity contest cheerleaders in the East gave it to Brodeur. Edited July 1, 2019 by rekker 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostsof1915 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Stelar you have the perfect Avatar for fans griping about overpaying when its $0.5 million more than his last contact. Picard facepalm sums up Benning haters perfectly. That's all I'm saying. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6string Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Canuckster86 said: Could have been worse...longer term and higher cap hit. Be interesting to see what kind of NTC or NMC he gets. Have to assume the contract is heavily based on early year signing bonuses I'm guessing there is a NMC as a trade off ( expansion 21/22 ) for a lower salary.

Kanukfanatic Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) Maybe JB should try to grab Stralman tomorrow too. Due to his age and the cap crunch through out the league, maybe he can be had for a good deal. Edler Stralman Hughes Myers Benn Tanev Or trade Tanev and make the 3rd pairing into Benn Stecher. I would like this very much lol. Edited July 1, 2019 by Kanukfanatic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should probably wait until the announcement is made before jumping the gun on a thread. Last time CDC jumped the gun, the Canucks were getting JT Miller for a 2nd. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to have Miller but damn, I'd have preferred the original version of that trade. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread says signing but we all know that cannot happen until tomorrow morning. I think there's at least 3 threads now... and probably a 4th tomorrow AM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
