Ya, it's the length of Myers' contract. I don't think he's terrible, he brings something the Canucks need.. but after next year he'll still have two years left, and those are the ones that are going to hurt them.

Loui a buyout candidate this off season. Holtby for one more season isn't the worst.

Our club signs a UFA goalie in the off season and before he’s through his first season fans are looking to dump him. The optics on it are terrible.

A lot of times these hosts just throw crap out there to generate discussion, kinda like what we do hear.

Meh, it wasn't a top tier UFA goalie. And they also got him so they had a goalie to expose in the Seattle draft.

Don't think as many people would be complaining if he was playing better.

This!
He's been playing well, from what i've seen.
I'm one of the few that like him and what he brings to the team.

I was hoping he'd have a bounce back year and entice the Kraken...looks unlikely now


I guess they can have the pick from our bottom 6 plugs.

that’s kind of how it works. Get paid like an impact player then you better play like an impact player. If Loui played up to his paycheque nobody would complain. If Myers played up to his paycheque nobody would complain. If Roussel, Beagle, Sutter, Virtanen, Ferland, and even Baer played up to their paycheques nobody would complain.

Maybe we have stumbled onto something here. Hmmmmmm.

If that happened we'd win the cup #Benning'ed

Just saying if he doesn't want to get run out of town, stop some more pucks

Is Schmidt playing like a 6 million dollar defenseman?

Absolutely. Clearly our best all around Dman. Supported by stats and the good ol reliable eye test. Guy has been a stud! Hopefully he can mentor Myers

Certainly one of the clear trade wins for JB.

Always get a kick out of announcers when they say nice job by x player to get back on a 2 on 1, or whatever, yet all the player did was skate hard to get back and didn't tie up sti k or takes the wrong guy.

"Demko is 1 good season away from being the franchises all time leader in home grown wins."

He currently has 30, Schneider is the all time leader with 55.

I had no idea just how incompetant the Canucks have been historically at drafting goaltenders. Crazy stuff.
