Not sure why he was chosen to lead our group. We'd be better off with Benning coaching the defense. He wasn't even that good of an AHL defenseman...

rekker Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Cool. Trade Gaudette for whoever over there keeps drafting all those great dmen. He's a genius. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Toyotasfan Posted February 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 10, 2021 If Benning could learn to stop overpaying for free agents , his trade history really isn’t that bad. Vanek for Motte gudbranson for Pearson 1st for Miller all decent trades. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the same, all new members of the staff would still have to quarantine, I believe. Can't see it happening from a logistical standpoint. He’s living in Clinton, Prince Edward Island right now. So yes he’s in Canada and would only need to quarantine a week if they decide to bring him in. If they are interested they better snatch him up before Seattle does. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does nothing, he's an idiot. If he does something, he's "desperate", even if they're just rumours. Yet Green is not questioned...

How much do you pay for that surveillance? So you only need to quarantine for one week when you travel within the country. That's news to me. I though it was two regardless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not realistic at all. They didn’t have the cap space early in the off-season. They had to wait to know if Ferland would play. It’s only once they knew he would be out for the full season that they were able to go after Hamonic 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an article about him back in December about what he’s doing with his time off. Seems like he’s very eager to get back into coaching. And yes only one week within Canada.

Elias Pettersson Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 5 minutes ago, PhillipBlunt said: Sami Salo would be a great candidate. Mattias Ohlund as well. I wonder what he's up to these days. I think my personal choice would be Kevin Bieksa. I like him so much on tv though, it would be a shame if he left. But I'd rather see him helping the Canucks then helping Sportsnet make more money. Fun fact: Bieksa's middle name is "Francesco". I guess he has a little Italian inside of him... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of Rypein. But Rypein wouldve fared ever better. Man we used to have a badass team back in the day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim can't go out and sign his nephew for extra dollars. 5 minutes ago, mll said: They didn’t have the cap space early in the off-season. They had to wait to know if Ferland would play.

Buried contacts below $1,075,000 don't count towards the cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Gaud + Roussel cap for 3rd? But again, I would have done this sort of deal in the offseason so that we make room to sign Tanev and Stecher. At this point, we need to get a RHD upgrade over Benn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's worked better with Hughes than anyone else, all things considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwags Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Would rather trade Virtanen for scraps than even think about moving Gaudette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
