We are no longer going to use that website - every time we put a name up, it gets out to the media - Benning.
This really seems to be a problem somewhat specific to Vancouver. You would think that the NHL would want to investigate. The more I am reading this the more pissed off I get. Benning and company were crucified for that list, made fun of etc etc etc. Someone is fucking with us!!
Bring out the Russians! They don't fuck around.

Re: Canucks News and Notes
I'm guessing throwing in the towel on the season is turning into an opportunity to give Tryamkin a "tryout" without him having to prove himself in camp first. If he does well he'll be more confident and likely to show up for camp rather than return to the KHL. I'd be shocked if Pedan does not get called up as well.

Re: Canucks News and Notes
Hmmmm they already have "targets" in mind for their $17M in cap space this summer...
Let's look back over their targets so far:
6-27-2014 Derek Dorsett
6-27-2014 Luca Sbisa, Nick Bonino
6-28-2014 Linden Vey
7-1-2014 Ryan Miller
7-2-2014 Radim Vrbata
11-25-2014 Andrey Pedan
1-29-2015 Adam Clendening
3-2-2015 Sven Baertschi
7-1-2015 Brandon Prust
7-1-2015 Matt Bartkowski
7-28-2015 Brandon Sutter
8-26-2015 Adam Cracknell
1-8-2016 Emerson Etem
2-22-2016 Markus Granlund
2-24-2016 Philip Larsen
This "impressive" list does not give me confidence for Summer 2016.

Re: Canucks News and Notes
Benning is saying there was no deal for Verbata or any good one for Hammer. His other choice would be to make shitty trades. Glad he did not do that to please fan base and this gives me more respect for him. Hammer is going to sign here anyway so all we lose is Verbata and his salary. Sounds good to me. Sometimes Vancouver fans sound like whiny kids who did not get a treat when they wanted it. I am of course not referring to this thread or any of its revered posters, but the rest....

Jumping the gun??
Nikita Tryamkin's agent told @champ_hockey his client agreed to join #Canucks paperwork pending
— Igor Eronko (@IgorEronko) March 4, 2016
Benning says he's continuing to negotiate with agent in hopes of getting him released from KHL contract, which expires on April 30. #Canucks
— Brad Ziemer (@BradZiemer) March 4, 2016
Brad Ziemer reporting that the Canucks and Tryamkin's NY based agent are denying the reports that a deal has been reached and the kid is on his way to Vancouver. Says Benning is still working to resolve issues and reach an agreement to get him released before his contract expires April 30th but nothing finalized yet.
Benning has said they will have no cap issues in signing him and that reports about needing to clear cap space are totally false. The issues are in negotiating his release. His contract his governed by the ELC limits so that is not expected to be an issue. Benning also wants him in Vancouver and not Utica so that is not a problem.
Sounds like some tweeter just having fun with false reports.

I'll forgive you for not being "impressed" by Dorsett or Sbisa, but they fill roles at the NHL level.Southern_Canuck wrote: Hmmmm they already have "targets" in mind for their $17M in cap space this summer...
Let's look back over their targets so far:
6-27-2014 Derek Dorsett
6-27-2014 Luca Sbisa, Nick Bonino
We had to get a stopgap middle 6 centre back in the Kesler deal and that had to be Bonino.
Stopgap Bonino was traded for Foundational Sutter.
Vey was a gamble (for the 50th o/a) that may not pay off. (shrug)Southern_Canuck wrote: 6-28-2014 Linden Vey

The prospect we gave up for him was not available for that.
This was in the midst of a 101 point season.
Clendening was a throw-in in the Foundational Sutter trade.

Re: Canucks News and Notes
It was interesting today that Benning said the club will have 17+ million in free cap for FA season. The plus being whatever the cap increases by, if it increases.
Got me think g about who won't be back.
Vrbata. 5
Prust. 2.5
Vey. 1
Hamhuis. 4.5
Bartkowski 1.75
Weber. 1.5
Higgins. 2.5
So does that mean no Hamhuis or is he one of the targets? Or do they already figure him at 3-4 m? I wonder who on that list they will keep. The only one besides Hamhuis I could see is Bartkowski.
Linden also said today that they would like to keep Sutter with the twins next year. Wonder who of Hansen and Burrows will be gone.
The fun part of the season is almost here. That time when we all get to build a contender
