I know, but then we will have 3 goalies.... AGAIN no need for another goalie controversy

Who cares Holtby is a young franchise goalie. I would be all over that.

Benning says #Canucks are in a transition period, looking to establish a new core of young players. Wants to add D-man in free agency.

transition period, sounds like top 10 pick to me

i definitely can see that.

Possibly.

But I agree let's toast 'ol Juice tonight and thank him for all his efforts in Van. While he embraced his role he was fun to watch. Heart and Soul guy for many years depsite his liabilities.

Only reason I wanted them to keep Bieksa for awhile was to be near the cap so they wouldn't be tempted to spend on free agents. Youth and mini tank would do wonders for the team.

So it is the tank vs compete argument. I see.
We are on other sides of the fence when it comes to this one.

If you could get a FA signed for a decent term/price, I say you do it, whilst moving out soon to be RFAs and UFAs or older players either now or at the TDL.

It is obviously important to keep an infusion of youth coming into the organisation year after year (something that has been sorely lacking for past many seasons).

eg. Sign Franson for 4 years. Inject Corrado/Clendening/UFA.
At TDL, if we are out of playoff position, move HAmmer, Vrby, Burrows, etc. for picks/prospects.

If it happens it'll just be a stop-gap so won't really matter who it is, as long as it's not Franson or anyone costing 4 million or more.

I'm having a shot of patròn right now for him and 2 for Benning.

All you JB haters can say what you will but from day one he hasn't pulled any punches and has put his stamp on this team.

it really does come down to the compete/tank argument.

signing franson for 4 years at 4.5ish wouldn't be that bad. however, i don't think he signs for less than 5 years and 5m.

d prices are insane and i don't see franson leaving both term AND money on the table.

Finaly some positive steps towards change ! Very excited , after the crap at the draft I was going to hibernate till the end of next season, just couldn't support this gouge ing of the Canucks faithful for another year. Could aquillini finally have gotten on board with the fact that this team needs a complete teardown? Yes there's the drop off with no playoff revenue, but hey....drop a couple more vets for picks and shazam !!! There's your playoff revenue back in you're jeans ! And we the fans can actually get excited for our team again ! Love it , great play JB...keep up the good work

Vrvata has deadline huge value ditto for hammer

At least one if not 2 of burrows, Higgins and Hansen need to go.

- Bieksa#3


This would require the Canucks to be well out of it by the deadline. Barring a few key injuries it's a stretch to think that we'll be far enough out that they will be sellers of such important assets heading into the playoff (ticket) drive.
