Just because cap space is available does not mean they are going to be paid above market value. Quinn knows his cap - below heiskanen; EP knows his as well - below Aho by probably 1M.

Actually no the whole league didn't have our schedule to start the season or you know...miss a month because the whole team got covid..... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nave Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Would have liked to see him stay. I thought he'd be a lot better next season. But we recouped the pick, so I can't complain. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtman Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I was hoping he'd work out better though, I loved his initial interviews. Oh well, good luck in Winnipeg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god we have one place anyway! What's wrong with that?

It's more like taking the free trial on a subscription, realizing it wasn't worth the money, and cancelling before getting a bill. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PistolPete13 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 1 hour ago, RWMc1 said: My point is that we should have gotten a better return. People complain about constant negative posters and their anti Benning agendas. I think it should be okay to criticize a move sometimes. I expected a better return for a player of his calibre regardless of what we paid to acquire him. You can’t always get what you want. But if you try sometime, you might find, You get what you need. And we need cap space. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallstreetamigo Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I shudder at free agency opening before EP and Hughes are signed. I sense a couple of bad overpay signings by Benning coming up. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Crossbar Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Great move! Finally! It's too bad Nate came to us during such a God awful year of a season. Wish he had a better experience with us but I also wish him well going forward. JB recouped the pick. Now we need a solid replacement. Excited for the start of FA tomorrow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the garbage is gone but we still need a scapegoat? 3.25 aka 4% of the cap is nothing. For what he brings on the defensive side, and proven scoring ability, 3rd line can play 2nd, PP & PK, Fair deal. Not to mention all the behind the scenes we don't get to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just loan him out to Timrå and no Fuzz. we would still have him now if so. But the trade seems to be good also so it doesn’t matter much now My boy is going to be a Canucks' star one day. He has the look of a Patrik Sundstrom to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#Canucks Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 No issue. Contract could be real bad in 1-2 years. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
