Re: Canucks Young Guns

If Boesser wants to sign you absolutely sign him. You don't take the chance of pissing him off. Benning would love to have signed him last year but deferred to what Boeser wanted, and fully supported that decision. Benning has more than hinted that there are a couple of college prospects, Canucks p...

Re: Canucks News and Notes 2016/17

Torts told us all loud and clear the team was stale and needed changing. We all knew that. We clamoured for change. Good gawd we've seen nothing but change in the 2.5 years Benning has been here. It's a f**king rebuild no matter what Linden and Benning have been calling it. The process started befo...

When Juolevi signs, this should put even more pressure on the leaves to sign Mathews. The optics won't be good when the #1 pick should be the easiest contract but end up being the last one to sign.

Re: The Official CC "All Thing Leaves" thread

Ahhh...the beginning of a long and beautiful relationship. Mathews is the number 1 pick. Just give him the maximum bonus and compensation allowed in the cba and be done with it. How difficult can it be? For sure I can see Lou being fired if this situation goes south. It's not everyday that a number ...

Re: Canucks 2016 Post Season Discussion

Sigh...wonder the club would be now if they had been able to trade Edler, Burrows, and Higgins two years ago. Now Higgins is being bought out and Burrows being another potential buy out. I wish AQ can see the consequences of his interferences.

Re: Canucks 2016 Post Season Discussion

If the Canucks cannot get any big name FA's, JB should really consider using the cap space as a means to get some good pieces. CBJ still needs cap help so perhaps taking on Hartnell + a prospect. Don't get so hung up on FA's.

If Benning gets two FA's where would Rodin fit? Is there even room for him?

Re: Canucks 2016 Post Season Discussion

I'd take a gamble on Yakupov. May turn out to be a Baertschi type of project. Sbisa for Yakupov.

Re: Canucks 2016 Post Season Discussion

Pretty difficult to assess which is the better deal (Giraldi vs Gudbranson) without knowing what Giraldi would have cost. Besides, as mentioned, Gudbranson is much younger.

Maybe I am missing something here ... but tell me you haven't given up on him already ?? Grizz It's not a matter of giving up on him. I just feel that the team has a more pressing need at the forward position than at D. I also wouldn't mind seeing DN trading some of our goalie prospects (except Sch...
