Sounds like our old buddy the Tryamkinsaurus is having a solid season in the KHL. He's logging a ton of minutes, is a shot block monster and consistently throws his big frame around (11th in league for hits). He'd be perfect to replace J.Benn on the bottom pairing after next season.

Yes! Peters' revenge on the Flames is turning Tryamkin into a reliable, physical defensive dman. Let's hope. Would be interesting to see Tkachuk and Tryamkin developing a hate-on for each other.

Are you predicting a deal gets done before the hearing?

Not that it would necessarily be a bad thing for Jake to get a serious flogging about his deficiencies.
It could be taken to heart and result in a more dedicated player.
I still think arranged marrying him off to a “mamma bear” type wife would accomplish the same thing.

Micky, he was qualified, unless he’s awarded over 4(?)million we have to sign him.

UMMMMM. How could Jake possibly become a UFA?

What occurs in salary arbitration is both the player and team submit their expectations for the player’s salary for the coming year. The team cannot ask for a reduction more than 15 per cent. The arbitrator then hears from both sides and renders a verdict. That verdict is now the salary the team is required to pay the player.

The team then has 48 hours to either accept the new salary amount or decline, which would then make the player an unrestricted free agent and free to choose anywhere he chooses. Virtanen elected to go to arbitration so the Canucks do have the ability to walk away from the verdict if they don’t like it. However, they would get nothing in return if Virtanen signs elsewhere.

Article must be wrong in it's wording or I am misunderstanding it.

The team can only walk away if he is awarded over 4m, which isn’t going to happen. So, no he won’t.
I’m hoping he becomes a consistent top six winger with the Canucks.

The 2nd buyout window might end up being the final chapter in the Jake Virtanen saga

As I understand it, if JV makes it to arbitration, another 48 hour buyout window opens for the Canucks. If he gets say 3.9mil (which is WAY too much for JV) - can we use the buyout window on him? Thus making him a UFA?

Nope, but we could use the buyout on another player.
