He's terrible. End point. Worst contract in NHL history and most likely in pro-sports.

No not 10 imo. I'd say 8 is very foreseeable, IMO Patrnak is a very accurate comparable. Pasta is same type of player, similar points. what did he get 7.8? I could see Boeser getting that if he pushes throughout the sophomore slump

Probably not 10, I agree, unless he does 50 goals and 40 assists.

8 million sounds right.
Definitely more then 6 unless he craps the beef.

canucks have not been good since losing salo. He was a huge part of the team

guys like mitchel also added to team success

True losing that right hand shot has killed us back there. Never thought it would have that much impact. We've never been able to replace it.

I like yesterdays move . Hopefully every year we have a young talented player pushing an old vet out the door.

Granlund was the 13 th forward at practice yesterday and will probably go on waivers when Roussel comes back.

Not quite Kesler/ Nucker territory, but pretty big none the less.

I bet he does. I would surprised if he clears. He is still a good NHL player.

I doubt he gets claimed because of his 3 mil salary. He is worth 1 mil.

Oh jesus, get over yourself. There isn't a single infallible GM in the league.

This is just the start of the Renaissance! Enjoy the ride.........

Benning has made mistakes but I don't look at yesterday as one of them. One of his high end draft picks knocked a stop gap vet off the roster. As I said two posts ago , I hope we see this every year.

Then stetcher, Hutton, DP almost to be gone next year with OJ and Hughes. Unless they are unreal. Or elder waives. Or a goooood offer on tanev including an NHL d man.

Edler - tanev
Hughes - MDZ
Guddy - OJ

Beiga

Youre kidding right? You keep all 3 - DP, BH and TS.....Biega goes and MDZ goes.

You guys seem to think development is linear. More times than not, it doesn't work that way. Not to mention that defensemen take longer. Will they be barn-burners? Extremely doubtful, but they are better than Gudbranson, Biega and MDZ, IMO anyway.

Edler/Stecher
Hughes/Tanev
OJ/Gudbranson

Hutton
Pouliot


That's a way better group.....

I think they will keep Stecher.

I like Edler so don't get me wrong but I hope the Canucks outgrow him and move on. I want to see a couple of first round picks next year and him and Tanev are our best chances.

I seen the UFA list for next year and there are enough servicable players that can replace easily what we have .

Last place with this defence not unless they can get career best offence from the D and PP is top 10, they might be alright?
