I am in the minority but I thought he was ok although $4M is steep. There's more crap on the roster than Hutty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhukini Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Trimming the fat, literally. Jake losing his partner in crime though but then again I’d be surprised if He’s on the roster either in September Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris12345 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Question...can the Canucks not qualify but then sign as a UFA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktcy2 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Good. We all know deep in our hearts that Ben is a bottom pair guy. Move on from him, good decision by JB on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueDragon23 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 I love Hutty’s happy-go-lucky attitude, but unfortunately he’s been in over his head a lot of times (forced to play a bigger role with all our injuries than he was capable of). Never quite lived up to his contract expectations. So it makes sense to let him walk considering we have Juolevi coming up and the whole speculation of Myers or Barrie signing/trade. If so, my best wishes to you buddy. Keep smiling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyLow_ Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) He's not Puliot, we shouldn't be losing him for nothing. Edited June 25, 2019 by FlyLow_ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still an over payment, but at least it's manageable and he could be flipped later Not so sure. Hutton is a decent 5th guy and mediocre top 4 player... 4.5 to pay a bottom pairing guy. Sbisa 2.0 Would rather take that 4.5 and get Benn or Dillon etc. With Hughes and Edler plus OJ, Biega, Saunter, Brisbiois etc why pay Hutton 4.5 for any reason. Heck help Trymakin buyout his deal and give him the 4.5 and we would be better off in many ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topcheeze86 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Hutty is a core guy in the locker room he shored up our backend when injuries happened i believe in the kid but not at 4+ mill when stetch is getting less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcakes Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Hutton is a great guy but he was given too much money. $2.8 is too high, he is a 5/6 and should be making closer to half that. He is one of the RFA's who have some value, just not at that salary. The salary does his career no good and I imagine that Benning hasn't been able to move him at that salary. Unfortunately, I think the Canucks will miss Hutton not even a little. He would be quite easy to replace. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing this is exactly what the Canucks are trying to do with Hutton. Instead of risking having an arbitrator award him with a $4 million+ AAV contract, they're taking the risk of trying to sign him to a cheaper deal.

Kanukfanatic Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 pro hockey rumors....just another click bait crap site.....is building up Hutton like he is some top 4 D man free for the taking now that Vancouver is not qualifying him.

True nobody wanted him last year but he had a nice bounce back year. I call BS that they tried to trade him in the middle of a playoff race with our injuries and how playoff crazy our ownership and management are. Yes it's steep, but he's a good depth option it sucks to keep losing nhl players again and again for nothing. Asset management is what seperates the top organizations from the rest.
