Players have to go on waivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking like we may have this guy for the playoffs. A healthy Canucks team is a high level competitive one. Let’s not forget how they came out of the gate like a freight train. Wasn’t until these injuries started piling up, did they start to stumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you know why Benning played musical LTIR all season. It's 100% a cap work around for the playoffs. Many teams have done it, it's not a secret or conspiracy theory, just putting it out there. Also, I expect this loophole to be addressed in the next CBA, so enjoy it while Benning's got his finger in the yarn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not so sure JB played the "loophole" Ferland reported to Utica and if my not very good memory serves me correct he had symptoms almost immediately and either only played 1 period of a single game then went home? Hopefully the extra few months have helped, hopefully he can make it through this without any symptoms from just playing hockey. Might be the smart decision to just sit him out regardless and hope by Christmas or whenever next years training camp will be he will have had even longer to rest and recoupe. Either way, wish Ferland the best, but I expect no fighting from him for a while. Hopefully he is still able to hit and doesn't turn into Taylor "Pylon" Pyatt...

He simply had no choice to ice a complete roster with injuries mounting. Now with the cap likely staying flat, having used LTIR has created a bonus overage of at least 1.7M. Not ideal with limited cap space next season. Using LTIR is a real nuisance and some teams have even paid good assets to get those contract off their books, but sometimes there's just no choice.

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Doesn't look like Leivo will be available any time soon but does sound like Ferland will be back at some point just wasn't available for today for either group 1 or 2 skates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferland skating like the wind last night in scrimmage, and he was showing his top 6 hands too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
