I don’t begrudge you on that. I just also don’t mind players trying to make the most of their earnings opportunities… there aren’t too many McKinnon’s out there who are willing to make significant less in order to get knocked out of the playoffs early every year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You realize the online "hunters" who "hunted" Dahlen, are people free to make up their own minds regarding what they do with their free time? Benning didn't stand at a pulpit and sic his online hunters on Dahlen. The hyperbole here is laughable. Sorry, but you diminishing what your GM did is just sad. No player should be bullied online because the GM is a dip$&!#. Petey knows what happened and a bit more than you and I know.

DeNiro Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Management better be locked in a room with Peteys agent right now and Benning better swallow the key. No coming out till you’ve got him signed! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyGuy123 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I wouldn’t worry about this. If Canucks had no cap sure. Teams could bully you. If they do it to you then you do it back at a later date. Relationships are key in the league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awalk Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, IBatch said: Well.... Let's think about this. Our team last year, which for sure is worse then the one we have this year, without EP, clawed their way back. I personally believe aside from a select few superstars, the best value is found in the middle range. That's the 5-7 range. EPs also been sheltered with Miller - a perfect example of value - and Horvat another value deal ... what has EP really done that is dramatically different than any of them? Does he deserve to get paid 50% more then them? No he does not. Yes maybe 20%. RFAs aren't supposed to make UFA money either. But somehow, even with flat cap, GMs just can't help themselves. Sakic is screwing up all the good work he did at the moment. I mean he's 22 years old and has franchise to elite centerman potential but ok sure Edited July 27, 2021 by awalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's the fans that went after him. But I still don't recall JB talking about entitlement. Unless you think players should be gifted a spot instead of having to earn a roster spot.

So Dahlen wanted to leave the Canucks. Benning did his best to accommodate his wishes, and then social media coyotes went after Dahlen for quitting on the Canucks and their fans, but it's somehow Bennings fault? Now Pettersson is going to not sign with the Canucks because Benning gave his friend exactly what he wanted? Jeez 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBatch Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 30 minutes ago, Timråfan said: Well, Miller is a more egoistic crash and burn player. Petey gets better and better and better and better... Those two aren't comparable. What does that have anything to do with what i was saying? If EP makes 8-9 he better run his own line without Miller and get 100 points or he's not getting us the same value which was my point. It's usually the guys in the mid range that do it. Really seriously doubt EP is ready to have the cord cut yet, as in not having Miller there to help him. Hope he is though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
