D-Money Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Hope the best for him. Looked like he could be a regular NHL-er, but injuries really derailed him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJockitch Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Hope he gets healthy and turns things around. Not his fault but we got nothing for what we invested in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah would have been nice if we just unloaded Hamonic and left it at that. 1 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point dwelling on it, he played well here when healthy it just didn’t work out. But you’re probably right, we’d probably be better off with Jordan Gustafson.

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Dermott was a good guy...happy for him. Sorta wished we had taken the gamble to re-sign him to that deal. I think he has more to give. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Good deal for him, he needs to prove that he can stay healthy. If he can, they should get value at that rate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen Erased Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I thought his career was over tbh. I hope he bounces back. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rekker Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Dermott is NHL talent when healthy. But man, at what point does this franchise stop with it's curse on our D and injuries. We have to rank up there. RIP Luc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True enough but you can't let what you paid for a player in the past affect future decisions Does a healthy Dermott make the Canucks this year? Do they sign Cole or Soucy if he was healthy all along? They are part of the Canucks desire to get bigger especially on the back end. Although Dermott is listed at 6'0" 205 It does seem as though Benning especially, rolled through a lot of players on what looked like a trial and error basis. Do other teams turn over so many bottom 6 and bottom pair players? I don't remember it happening to this degree. I get that the present regime is turning over players in an effort to bring in non-core players who better suit their vision. [I certainly hope that is what they're doing and not Bennings "chuck spaghetti against the wall and hope it sticks" approach] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't hoping that we'd re-sign him anyway, he's not much of a difference maker. I just don't like how many draft picks we continue to waste in scenarios such as this one. It's tiring seeing the same mistakes repeated over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look for him on Cap Friendly, he's listed on LTIR. If he turns out to not be cleared it's a fool hardy move. I thought Bear was safe until he is pronounced healthy. Is it likely that he gets snapped up as a free agent healthy or not? Edited July 12, 2023 by Crabcakes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
