GDT: 2018 Free Agency: Jay Beagle 4 x 3M, Antoine Roussel 4 x 3.25M, both w/ limited NTCs

[Burke's Evil Spirit]

Hehe the guy Washington just signed to replace Beagle is...Nic Dowd. 1 year, $650K. I know who I'd rather have...

 

[go comets]

There’s no room for almost any young players, even the 21/22 year olds who shouldn’t be considered as letimimate prospects if they’re not ready to step into the NHL

Until train camp starts and 6 guys get Injured.... Pretty much the norm....

Trotz.

Hopefully they meant "Resigning alert"

 

[CanaFan]

Well that's the price we pay for Gillis's regime............I'd love to hear your thoughts as to who we should've signed.......

Sorry dude, it’s 2018 now. This is Benning’s team, in all its glory.

*Resigning* or *Re-signing*?

 

[Fire Benning]

Surprised the servers haven’t disintegrated yet.

Resigning definitely

 

[Huggy43]

Baertschi-Horvat-Boeser
Granlund-Sutter-Eriksson
Roussel-Beagle-Gagner
Gaunce-Schaller-Virtanen

if that's not a 31st place team I don't know what is

Soon it'll be a 32nd place team! #Seattle

I remember you supported this management group a couple years ago. Enjoy

You remembered wrong. I've been shitting on Jimbo three months into his tenure. Go home Pauser.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

They’ll trade Sutter, Gagner etc.

 

[Bobby Digital]

Benning isn't trading foundational pieces, lets be real.

 

[Pip]

Sutter hopefully. We’d have to give up assets to trade Gagner.

[krutovsdonut]

ok, here is my best take at the logic here

they lost two major roster players at the end of the year
they did not replace vanek
they also let dowd and archibald go
motte and gaunce are on the bubble
with all those players on the roster they still had room for kids

ergo they have room for 3 roster players and they can still play the kids

that is my best shot at the logic.

i don't subscribe to that logic. the only way this makes sense is if they intend to trade at least one senior roster guy.

 

[Caspian]

**** THIS

I'm a leafs fan now.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

They’ll trade Sutter 100%.

 

[Catamarca Livin]

To think the Leafs were in pretty much the same spot as us in 2014.

Where are all those people from 14-16 who told me blowing it up was dumb and that what the Leafs were doing would make them end up like Edmonton?

Look what happens when you actually commit to a full on rebuild and don't try any shortcuts. No surpise the the two teams who've committed to it the most in both the NBA (76ers) and NHL (Leafs) have arguably the best future in both their respective leagues.

No we were not in the same spot or even close. However things could not have gone better for Toronto or been handled better by them since. Vancouver has had some good things many bad during the time since 2014 but no Matthews which in the end helped get Tavares for Toronto. They are in great shape going forward the Canucks are at least one franchise player away from being a good team.

15 years in ... "It's Gillis fault".

These paid PR guys think people are stupid.

 

[sewellda]

James Neal?

 

[CanaFan]

What a day for St Louis. Bozak for 3x$5 and Perron 4x$4.

Boston locks up Moore for 5 x <$3


Outside of our Pejorative Slured front office it’s actually been a pretty sane day.

 

[Canuck Luck]

At least Dowd, Megna, and Chaput are all gone. First 2 to Washington the latter to Montreal. (yes I know we had traded Cahput but we could have signed him again)

 

[btdvox]

Canucks should Offer-Sheet Matthews, Marner or Nylander in FA 2019.

Wrong. But ok...
