Beagle as a third line center and Sutter is where he should be as a fourth line center is good, still don't have a second line center though. It'll all work out in the end. Next year is a development year anyways.

If Sutter is a fourth line center why does he have interest from 4 other GMs looking for a center?

I remember Ray Ferraro about a month ago chirping a Canuck fans suggesting Canucks sign Tavares to an 11 mil 7 year contract.

His reply was are you nuts? He said Tavares is good but not thsat good . He said he was worth about 7-8 mil only

If you’re smart, your signing deals that look just as good or better 2 years from now. A lot of these signings all sound great today and eventually become “wtf were they thinking?” after a year or 2

And for the record, I’m fine with 2 out of the 3 signings(Schaller deal seems like it’s still more of a rumour though).

Everything is always justified in the moment.

Don't worry though. Opinions here always change on a dime. The same decisions being justified today will be the reasons why the administration needs to be fired tomorrow.

If you take every position, at some point you'll be right.

Because he's a good bottom six center, he's defensively responsible and he's great on the PK. Third or fourth line.

At what? PK? 5 on 5?
- LeftCoaster


All of the above


You’re either overrating Beagle or underrating Sutter

Ferraro has my respect for forming his own opinions and not being afraid to criticize a GM or player(the opposite of Pierre McGuire types) but he does say some stupid things sometimes.

8M for Tavares, even if the cap was at 75M instead of 80M, would be a steal.

It seemed like everyone here agreed that the Canucks should stick to 1-2 year UFA contracts just a week or 2 ago. Things changed quickly.

5 years for a very basic bottom pairing D man. 20 point average is fine, but 2.75m, 5 years. Will be 33 when his deal is done.
