I remained patient believing something would happen but all that aside there’s always a few where no matter what happens they try to put a spin on it to make Benning out as some sort of idiot. What a shame Exactly! It is a shame! It's about the end game and that's looking pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a big loss but we understandably had to move on. Demko's potential is too great. Some familiarity with Schmidt will go a long way. Ian Clarke will do his thing and we have a great mentor for Demko. Win on all fronts imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Dog Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Just now, VancouverHabitant said: I just listened to Sekeres & Price for a bit and about 10 minutes before the trade went down, they went on and on about "If Benning pulls of the Nate Schmidt deal, we will build him a statue!" .... Then the news comes in and all they can say is "good deal... Vegas must've been desperate" ... and go on talking about Whitecaps. They both like to stir the pot for the sheep that can be easily swayed on twitter. No offense to those type of Canuck fans... maybe a little. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pietrangelo is much bigger than Schmidt and produce up to 20 points more. This is more of a desperate move by Benning in my view. He had to do something... I had waited til we could get one of the best. I hope Schmidt prove me wrong though. "one of the best" for a third round pick? Excellent. Cannot wait to hear what you might think is a better move by ANY NHL GM. Desperate move indeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently hes the guy that ate the most minutes against the other teams best players.....yet its a bad trade for a third rounder 2 years from now, and its bad value contract. What does a d man like this deserver in their minds for it to be good value? 2.5 million? and maybe it should a been a 7th rounder....some of these guys make me scratch my head. Not even the HFBoards crowd is pooing on this deal and they hate benning. It's because they listen too much to 1040... They always look for a spin so that they can criticize Benning and/or Green for something. So these people mindlessly listen to them and then come and parrot all their takes on the forums.

If it's a bit of a downgrade it's worth it for expansion draft reasons alone. Edited October 13, 2020 by Gnarcore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like this, both guys coming in having history with at least two other guys makes for a fantastic transition and our room will be much better for it. Not that our guys aren't welcoming or anything, but it really does help having those ties. 10 minutes ago, Toyotasfan said: I can see this being Edler’s last contract as a Canuck. I hope not, he was still effective last season and I want to see him hit 1000 games. 9 minutes ago, canuck73_3 said: Or he takes a discount to stay, either is realistic at this point. I fully expect him to, I don't see why he'd up and retire just as this team is competing again. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same guy who thought Dahlen was the second coming of Forsberg, and that the Canucks were totally wrong not to treat Dahlen like a princess. That Timrafan? And yes, that Dahlen who made a huge fuss about wanting out while spending not even 1 full AHL season. He didn't even want to wait out the summer to TRY and get his NHL debut. He thought he was NHL ready. And SJ Sharks didn't think so either. Hilarious, you still don't understand why I discussed Dahlen back then. That Benning doesn't have the diplomatic or psychology skills a GM should have as one... 1 6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
